Feels like knetz blame YIA too much. Hair color ruing a scene? Stylist/director is in charge of that. I think they did make her look too modern yet old-looking somehow lol. Agree with them though that the TRANSITION from KSH & KMJ to YIA & LDW was awkward, director should've had YIA &.LDWK that WHOLE scene, not abrutly change actors in THE MIDDLE OF a scene!

However I think many misunderstood the intention behind the scene(many saying it was unecessary and that KSH & KMJ should've finished it), why they had LDW & YIA act out same king&queen scene....It was more like a RELIVING of that scene from the modern sunny's point of view...So her emotions would be a bit different than that of KSH, since the added context of modern Sunny, in the modern time Reaper hadn't mistreated her like the past king had, so more conflicted Sunny than just the Queen remembering this scene.

"for me...." EXACTLY acting is SUBJECTIVE. You cannot claim objectivity in acting, acting is based on the very subjective realm of emotions after all!
Btw, for me Gong Yoo is not the best in acting. #UnpopularOpinions
Anyway, LDW and YIA do have their acting flaws, but still better than many others

From what I've read some where saying they prefered Kim So Hyun's acting over
YIA's and were comparing the two....and not directly saying YIA was bad, just that KSH was better. Either way, I often disagree with Knetz... After all, these where the same people who were putting down Kim Go Eun for apparantly being ugly ( which btw isn't true either)!

BTW I'm a fan of BOTH YIA and KSH and liked them both in the Gyreo era, both brought their own interpretation.... However, I've become more of a fan of YIA find her majorly underrated, often playing the lead's bff rather than the lead. Both YIA & LDW deserve more praise/better roles than they've been given throughout their acting careers

@BeautifulSwan You should at least watch ep 11 as it is a lead in to ep 12. Ep 11 also features Sunny&Reaper and King &Queen more than ever before, you should most definitely at least watch ep 11

Was it just me or was Yook Sung Jae suddenly HOT?!? Never thought so earlier, but damn he was when he was being a smexy god/Mr confident!

Yup, his acting rocked!

Ep 12 goes to Lee Dong Wook & Yoo In Na. They STOLE THE SHOW/overshadowed everyone else. So proud of my 2 fave actors, WELL DONE!

Can we talk about that kiss between WangSun....It was EXPLODING with chemistry! Normally I hate the fishlip/girl is shocked type of kdrama kisses but somehow these two managed to make a type of kiss that is normally IMPOSSIBLE to have chemistry with, they managed to make it SIZZLING! Lol

Now, LDW & YIA please kiss AGAIN a longer and more real kiss!....I'd die if you do that though haha, since even a typically unatural kdrama kiss was on fire for you two!

So I just realized Wang Yeo & Sunny cannot kiss without tears and angst....since flashback to their painful past happen then....Meaning if they kiss again, no lighthearted kissing YAY AS A MELODRAMA LOVER/Somebody who enjoys really angsty couples this is great news! However I feel sorry for those who desire happy kisses

OMO OMO I cannot believe it actually happened!! And a day after that dream of them kissing lol lol!! The real kiss was also steamy! ...And really angsty! My two fave things, except now my heart is broken for them ;(

PS. @naccu and @Nina89 We should put these comments under spoiler tags now to respect those who haven't yet seen ep 12...Surely we wouldn't wang anyone else spoiling this for us if we hadn't watched?

So I had a dream last night where Reaper & Sunny kissed. It was very intense/passionate.....Seems since the drama isn't providing a WangSun kiss (not YET at least...PLEASE happen!) one must have a dream about it.....SOOOO DEPRIVED of WangSun kissing & skinship....only a FEW eps left...PLEASE TVN, REAPER & SUNNY KISS !!

Lol. That's such a funny yet sad comment!

SO WHO OVER HERE IS SHIPPING WANGSUN (REAPER & SUNNY) MORE THAN MAIN COUPLE? Reply here or send me a PM(private message), thinking about who to friend request so we can chat more about uri SIZZLING Reaper&Sunny couple!

At first I thought it was just lack of chemistry between the main couple and ET's immaturity, but I've realized it's mostly the STORY. Main couple is just pull/don't pull out sword that's all there is to look forward to BORING.... meanwhile WangSun couple has a whole PAST LIFE to sort out, and the secret of him being a Grim Reaper between them.
THEY SHOULD'VE JUST MADE REAPER & SUNNY THE LEADS, SO MUCH MORE/MORE INTERESTING STORY TO TELL!

It doesn't help to have WangSun couple's SIZZLING chemistry on the same drama, makes you realize what CHEMISTRY is and what lack of it is!

So according to preview on YT, next ep (ep 11) will be focused on Reaper&Sunny and king&queen.... FINALLY CANNOT WAIT!
Ps. A KISS for WangSun couple, please TVN? ;)

So now that the main couple has kissed twice.... Reaper & Sunny's turn please! They did admit to wanting to hold hands and hug, can we get that and a full-blown passionate kiss? Not to mention when Reaper was jealous main couple had kissed when he couldn't even call Sunny...Aww he wanted a kiss too... GIVE IT TO HIM PLEASE, uri cute Reaper deserves it!

@VandaLimbata GREAT analogy with the handsome guy date, that is PRECISELY how I feel about this drama!

@Maria Actually, this is EXACTLY the type of genres I love: Melodrama + fantasy +romance + some comedy. Allthough it has more comedy rather than melo than I'd like, still I can appreciate a lighter tone if it's EXECUTED WELL! Which in this case, it isn't.
(Example: Love Shuffle, jdrama with more comedy than I'd like is my #1 fave drama )
So no, it's not disliking the genres, it's disliking the EXECUTION of what is normally loved

BTW, never watched Signal. Goblin has more the genres that I favor.

@Vivian I actually don't mind unrealistic plots (LOVE fantasy!) nor do I nitpick every detail to decide if a drama is good or not... I decide on MAJOR factors, this drama doesn't have small miniscule flaws you'd only notice if you'd nitpick...it has MAJOR flaws!

I've resigned to watch this only for the cinematography and for Reaper & Sunny (who have serious lack of screentime!)

Let's hope! ( more screen time/ development for Reaper and Sunny) !
....if we can't get story development can we at least get alot more Reaper& Sunny scenes even if PPL... So, if you HAVE to have many PPL scenes, include WangSun so they're screentime isn't discreased, please TVN!

I completely agree with you! The drama itself should be like 7.0 or maybe even 6.0, there's something MAJORLY lacking in the script, only the fantastic cinemetography and the actors make it worthwhile, the idea itself is like 9.2, however the execution /script is like 4.0-5.0.

Please people, don't get butthurt over this comment, this is MY opinion

Or better yet... A spinoff drama with Reaper & Sunny as main characters! Or at least LDW & YIA in a new drama together as main characters and lovers. (Or at the VERY least a HUGE increase in screentime together in Goblin) WHAT A WASTE OF THEIR POTENTIAL/CHEMISTRY OTHERWISE!
