Tae Ho
In the shining galaxy of A.N.JELL, Bangtan Sonyeondan & CNBLUE
Wow! What a total surprise that I liked this so much better than Goblin. I came to this not having much expectations at all because many reviews were not favourable to this drama, and I just realised that only by watching it can I form my own opinion that is: I LOVED IT TO BITS!
Some people say it dragged in the middle but even when I was around ep. 14-19 I couldn't find where it dragged really (I mean sure some scenes dragged but it didn't feel like the entirety of a couple of episodes could have been better taken out). perhaps I was just really enjoying Tae Oh and his cuteness that I didn't think it dragged in whatever shape or form LOL.
It's like Waikiki where they extended from 16 to 20 episodes, and you feel nothing but grateful that you can stay with the characters much longer. It's also not as draggy as Suspicious Partner or Fated to Love You, and the final episode just truly served the purpose of concluding things so nicely instead of being a useless one.
I just love this drama in entirety. There is so many angst in this drama, but through the evil characters, you also get to learn valuable life lessons because karma is indeed a bitch. And the writer's creativity to play around the fantasy genre has given us some of the best epilogues I have seen in kdramaland; I am going to remember this for a long time.
All of the scenes when they shot underwater are absolutely gorgeous and I could not think of an actress who would suit a mermaid-comedy-beauty character more than Jun Ji Hyun.
It was also a surprise for me coming into this drama receiving a crosssover between I Hear Your Voice and Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, literally.
Definitely a very rewatchable drama. I just feel sorry for the many people who seemed to not share what a gem this drama is. ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!
TMI: when they kissed in bed in episode 20 I think, I definitely saw a tongue from him, so Seo Kang Joon in Entourage was literally not the only one who did, HAHAHAHA. You can check it if you missed that. Okay bye.
