I was excited going into this because Joo Sang Wook was back with another drama and the premise sounded fun as I thought this was going to be a romantic comedy… Story- The first couple episodes are the child/teen part of the plot. It was unexpected because I had thought this would be a comedy and it was more like the beginning of most melodramas. While confused, I just went along with it because the events that took place made me curious as to how the rest of the drama would play out. Unfortunately that feeling only lasted till about half way through because things started to get repetitive and predictable by episode 20. Most of the episodes are too emotional and became draggy. It didn’t help that I read spoilers for the last episode and found out it had a crappy ending. That’s why I decided its not worth my time finishing 12 more episodes and just read a recap of the last episode. Really 32 eps is too much for the material. When it comes to the romance I have mix feelings. I did like that it was unpredictable but the way they handled it made me kind of mad. I don’t want to give anything away but I just have mixed feelings about it. Acting/Cast- While the acting was phenomenal by all, I had mix feelings about the casting choices. Sung Yuri is a good but not amazing actress. She makes her roles believable but at the same time all her characters feel the same to me. As for Joo Sang Wook, I am so mad at the writers for what they did to his character. They made him so unlikable and kind of pathetic. His character really didn’t provide much to advance the story. It didn’t help that he didn’t have any chemistry with Yuri. However, someone who I seen in a few other drams but hadn’t taken notice of before was Lee Sang Woo. This guy impressed me so much and his character was so memorable. I am glad I watched this drama because I was able to find another actor who im going to keep track of now. The other main actress did an amazing job playing the messed up In Joo. She was a really good villain because she did all these horrible things and yet you still feel sympathetic for her. Music- It had a good OST that fit the show well. Rewatch- I didn’t have the motivation to finish it the first time so I cant say id rewatch this although its rewatchable because the story wasn’t boring. Overall Im kind of disappointed with Feast of the Gods cause it started out really interesting but since I didn’t like the main female character all that much and it was too long this is a drama that is watchable but not enjoyable.
