Immersive fantasy romcom

I don't write reviews for every series I watch. However I am tempted to write one for this series. Mainly because low ratings and many negative reviews I saw on this site made me think this was going to be boring. I was pleasantly surprised to find it was a cute, sweet romcom which somehow managed to merge slice of life human drama with people from a fantasy world. After watching around 50 kdramas I watched this one and still this story hooked me in, got me invested in the love story and made me binge the series in a matter of days. I would also probably rewatch this after a while, as I found it a pleasant feel good drama. Something about the goodness and pure hearts of the main characters makes me like the series a lot.

If you are looking for a total fantasy drama with a lot of supernatural effects and complicated back stories, this one isn't for you. However if you like a cute romcom with some fantasy elements thrown in, you may end up liking it like me. I found the main characters absolute adorable eye candy, and the cinematography and light effects are stunning. There are many heart melting romantic moments scattered throughout the episodes, and although I won't call the chemistry sizzling there was an emotional connect between the leads that made it quite endearing.
I loved the visual effects of the world of Godly beings as well as the special effects shown on Earth. Comedy is not laugh out loud kind but definitely you will find yourself smiling thru so many of the moments.
Side characters were not as adorable but nevertheless added to the story's flow. Overall I give it a 9/10 and if you like romcom I recommend you watch a few episodes of this and make up your mind yourself, don't go by the low ratings or negative reviews of others.
