100% agree that today's episode was too much of a filler. They gave us tons of romance scenes and yet I still feel unsatisfied. The scenes were too "surface level". I would have liked them to have deep conversations with one another rather than them just looking at each other, smiling and laughing the whole time. I'm starting to look forward to the thriller portion of the drama rather than their romance T.T

I completely agree. The writers seems to following a type of formula, which basically gives you a good number of the lovey-dovey scenes followed by the thriller stuff. This makes every episode feel kind of repetitive (in my opinion). I also feel that the chemistry between the leads is present but not "natural," if that makes sense. Their love story in the first four episodes was very well done, from being strangers, to saving each other, then bodyguard, then married. It was very believable in the beginning, but now it feels quite dull. I was hoping that their past love story could take their present story in a different direction but that did not happen either. I hope the upcoming episodes focus more on the thriller stuff because I find it very intriguing, and it has more potential to help the story take a new route.

I agree with the Mountain God part... No grovelling, no excuses no nothing... That made it a very bitter pill for me to swallow.
This show was good for most of its run, but the last 4/5 episodes were a huge let down. The last episode felt like a filler episode more than anything. I would have preferred 30 minutes of cute and at least 30 minutes of grovelling on the Mountain God's part. Also given the fact that he is a guardian supposed to protect his Mountain or whatever, isn't there supposed to be some consequences for him leaving his duties?

I also felt very sorry for the Uncle. They played it as something funny, but I don't see what's funny in a poor dude who can no longer speak...
Also, lack of coherence here. In the previous episode, he was supposed to have forgotten human speech hence he could no longer type messages on his phone, yet in this episode he typed one to Hae Na as he was barking.

Talk about a let-down.

That's a 7.5 for me because it was still very good at the beginning, I'm just very disappointed by what they turned it into.

I was crazy harsh about this drama. But with time, I think it have great visuals and good comedy. But also, lot of problems. Sorry, I can't make a list here. But problems in dramas are a great help for me: it says what I have to avoid to do when writing a drama! It's why I watch twice dramas I don't like. I want to be sure to know why I don't like. And not doing this when I write.

What, really??? You've read this?
Why don't you write a comment in my blog, so?
I can't know without that.
I guess you recognize your audience experience in these memes.
lol, I watched this drama twice. know that: I do a serious work! 😂

I don't like to be painful, so I'm critical in a comical way. 😂

I couldn't help but took a peek into your PTW list... that's not long! LOL... I made a custom PTW list started 2020 and I had 300+ titles and they're all completed dramas. It took me 4 years to clear it up. I saw other MDLers have even 1000s. I refuse to be recommended, but making articles like this help me to look for dramas I want to watch if I have none to watch in a day.

Yeah, for sure. The writers came up with such a good idea but any other non-main characters just lack depth, it's a shame.

It's my first time discussing an ongoing drama, I'm always too late by a few months-years to jump in and enjoy with the early folks, it's fun :D

You've just started watching Asian dramas last year? Congrats, you have fallen into the rabbit hole of Asian dramaland, lol! Can't come back, you're just going deeper. What is your first drama?

How is it that someone at one point wanted you dead, would literally tell you to kill yourself by giving you poison, and the next time, they act like it was nothing much? (Jin star)
Because they got what they wanted, and suddenly they will become the most normal person.
That would never happen in real life though, usually who wants you dead would still keep wanting you dead no matter what like the actual villain.
Yes his demon was gonna die but still no normal person would give someone poison to kill themselves like this, evil people can do that, then show that they are evil , why make them good people suddenly ?

I'd seen him in my roommate is a gumiho, he is cast as a guy in college who is a player that all the girls have a crush on, but his second male lead storyline is so heartbreaking.

With the drama cheer up where he plays like a head cheerleader, it really seemed like a role absolutely made for him, I can't imagine anybody else filling it as well as he did.

I know I saw him in kiss goblin, but it was a long time ago and I remember not liking his character but not why 🤷

It seems like his popularity is on the rise so I bet he gets cast in a lot more things coming up.

Thank you so much for reading through all my questions and responding! I was surprised that the grandfather didn't show up in the past as such a strong figure like he did in the future. also It feels like his punishment was light compared to what he did. to be stuck in a state of euphoria no matter the terrible things he did, doesn't sound that bad. Though in that last scene with his grandfather it was one of my favorite parts of Bae In Hyuk's acting.

Some of you say that this show changes the perception of life etc and I felt it too, but it makes me wonder... Some people are not lucky enough to have loving parents/spouse. This show basically emphasizes that the only thing that should keep you alive at bad times is fear of hurting others. It emphasizes that we live only for others and because of others. But what about ourselves? It completely misses the topics of self love, self worth or that we should enjoy life also for ourselves... The conclusion may be that if you have no one close to cry for you then you can kill yourself. Basically the whole plot of the series exists because of the mother and the girlfriend. What if no one cried for the ML?

The case of suicides here just show people that felt despair after losing everything, they committed suicide on the spur of the moment, they wouldn't have committed suicide if they got/kept their job and family/lovers. They were not suicidal people before that, BUT it's not everybody's case, there are also suicidal people that have everything they want in life job/money/love , some that are sick or depressed for years, etc.. I hate that they show it like something easily avoidable, like just work harder you selfish brat.

Don't kill yourself because you're going to make the people who love you sad! Gotcha! ✍🧏‍♀️ (the implication being that it's otherwise okay to kill yourself if you have no one lmao). Well, I guess it's an okay series despite the dubious life lessons and Death's edginess 🤷‍♀️ Dubious because... probably everyone who suicides thinks about their loved ones but their pain is so insufferable that they do it anyway? And then you have to suffer again a bunch of times to learn to love life as if it was so simple
