A Promising Start That Lost Its Magic
I really wanted to like *Mirror of the Witch*. The concept was so promising — a dark, magical fairytale filled with curses, mystery, and emotion. The first few episodes were interesting, and the atmosphere was hauntingly beautiful.The cast did a great job, especially Kim Sae Ron as the cursed princess and Yoon Shi Yoon as her healer and protector. Both gave emotional performances that carried much of the show’s heart.
However, around episode 9, I started to lose interest. The pacing slowed down, the story became repetitive, and it was hard to stay invested in the characters or their journey. What began with so much potential just couldn’t keep the same spark.
Will I finish it? Probably not.
It’s a well-produced drama with a strong start, but it didn’t hold my attention the way I hoped it would.

Loved from start to finish
Love love love, well I do enjoy watching Esther Yu in most programs, and this is not an exception. Great storyline that flows well, and all actors were brilliant. There was great chemistry between the 1LC and the 2LC, and you did get the feeling that they must get on very well when not acting.Will be rewatched in the future .
I think a perfect follow on from this is moonlight :)
