Not sure I love this casting compared to the original. Part of the appeal for the original was a non traditional looking Female lead. All three of the main actors back then, were fairly new to the business and were young. This cast are all a bit to perfect looking, way too many muscles, and simply look too old to me. But I am going with it for now, because the first one rocked my old heart back into tune. :)
So is the FL character supposed to NOT kiss him back when he kisses her until later when she falls for him....…
The not moving lips while kissing is very common in many Asian dramas. This allows them to avoid a lot of censorship about decency and be more accessible to a younger audience. I personally hate the fake “innocent” kiss. They are super fake and actually pull me out of the story instead of into it.

On episode 4: overall I have liked this very fluffy romance, but a few things are bugging me. Her baby voice, the ml’s juvenile appearance, the witch/horror nightmares, and most of all the forced drinking scenes. Not sure if I am dropping or finishing this one.
I had to laugh- we started playing a game to count how many super obvious clothing labels were dropped per episode. It was ridiculous how many were. Okay drama, overly bad/evil characters, and it dragged on too long.
This is so much fun! I love seeing fl that are kick a** and can still laugh. Ml does a great job with being flirty and a bit damaged. Kim Ji Hoon blew me away- who knew he could be so funny?
