I honestly don't get the negative reviews. I find myself siding with the critics here. This entire show is a narrative…
It was in development hell due to a covid break which literally destroyed the project, that's why it after 3 eps looses half of the cast and totally changes direction, and just feels like a mess. It wouldn't surprise me if they even in secret let a trainee ghost write the last 3 terrible episodes. CGI was also ridiculous. But great if you liked it, for me it has the be one of the worst kdramas ever. I feel bad for the actors.
I agree. This obviously should have been 12 eps. The "final conflict" with the FL felt very forced and even frustrating. Also at some point I think they went "too wild", I mean lightsabers.. lol
The OST is absolutely amazing and I have the songs on spotify, but I think they played them a bit too much towards the end. Joo Ra In has to be one of the most irritating filler characters ever.
If you like Jung Kyung Ho this is a must watch tho, as most of the best scenes in the drama involve him and his expressions. Ah, also, if you can get past some frustrating eps in the second half, the last episode is good and satisfying! So a bit of a mixed bag, sadly. I would still recommend giving it a watch if you have nothing else on your list.
Climbing up to 8.4, well deserved! While it might not be perfect, for the first time in many years we get a well written fantasy from South Korea! Congrats!
Should easily sit at 8.5 currently, could be an 8.8 up to the second half and ending. This is one of the best korean fantasy dramas in years! Not often you see good writing in a fantasy drama.
