Started well but...

This drama was a bit of a disappointment to watch, especially because the storyline was compelling and it had immense potential to become one of the best fantasy dramas out there. Unfortunately, the interesting plot details that were building up, all fell into nothing or were somewhat forgotten.

The cast did a pretty decent job in my opinion. There was this happy yet sorrowful, with a dash of mystery kind of mood to both familial and romantic relationships, as if you're yearning for something that never happened or could never be. But even though it had all the elements to succeed, the execution was lacking. It's as if you started writing but then didn't know how to progress or finish the story. The entire concept around the magical tree was never properly fleshed out and the pacing was inconsistent. As for the ending, it was rushed, unsatisfying, and outright frustrating. Nothing was really solved or explained, you are left wondering what is going on and trying to make sense of something that has none because the writer didn't know how to explain or piece things together. It's ok to let things be mysterious, but at some point, the mystery does need to unravel in a logical way.

Overall if you are a fan of Lee Jong-hyun maybe you would like to watch this, otherwise, you can skip without regrets.
