Unfortunately, even though I love Nam joo Hyuk as an actor, this time, he didn't pull it off. Or maybe, the whole drama didn't. It reminded me of a cheap attempt to recreate the big hit Goblin, BUT this one didn't have the story nor the premises to do so. The special effects were okay, but the cinematography weak, just like the romance. The couple didn't have chemistry and the ending was just...too cheesy. Actually, after the tenth episode and inwards, the drama got boring. It was kind of uninteresting to begin with, because the theme of a supernatural being coming to earth to live with the humans and learn how to behave may have work hilariously with the "The legend of the blue sea" and "My girlfriend is a nine tailed fox", but not in this case. Finally, the side story with the semi god was okay, but lost it's charm after a while as they just blew everything out of proportion and they couldn't handle it in the end. The performances were just okay, lastly, but the leading lady's character was kind of annoying and all over the place, with her economical problems and her practice that was shut down numerous of times during the drama. I don't know if the actual manhwa is better, but this one didn't come through, so 3 out of 10
