A lackluster drama

Well, this drama was a bit underwhelming, albeit still entertaining. The plot had so much potential, but it's not very well developed and ends up being just average. I wish they had shown more about the realm of the gods and how their society worked, but unfortuntely that remained unexplored, maybe even due to a limited budget, I don't know. The ending is also very predictable and the conflict was resolved in such a simple way I wonder if So Ah really needed to have used her wish for that. Also, the title of the show is barely justified by the story.

I mainly decided to watch this because of Nam Joo Hyuk, but his performance here is not as astounding as in other works I've seen him in, but it's not just his fault as Ha Baek wasn't that deep or compelling. Same for So Ah, not terrible, but not a remarkable character either. I felt they lacked a bit of chemistry, although they do share some nice kiss scenes.

The CGI was terrible and cringe-worthy, which makes me question why they did some swimming scenes with CGI instead of just putting the actors to actually swim.

A pretty forgettable show, I would recommend this only in case you have nothing else to see.
