This show is amazing! It was categorised as a melodrama which I was a bit worried about but it's nothing of the sort, it has all different themes in it I admit, romance, comedy, supernatural, fantasy and drama but its not depressing. If anything it kept me on my seat the entire way through! You really can't skip or not pay attention to bits you think are a bit boring because it really doesn't make sense otherwise...! I was looking forward to Lee Hong Ki in this new role since I saw him last in You're Beautiful and whilst I do miss Jeremy and it was a weird seeing him in such a different character it was good! He played his character really well and I love how you could tell the gradual changes throughout the drama, brought in my the female lead. Who, I hadn't seen in a drama before but my gosh she's good! She plays 2 characters who look identical but with completely different personalities and I honestly got sucked in into thinking they were two different people!! I love how the drama came together, it didnt lag and the writers story from beginning to end was very thorough there wasnt really any holes in the plot either which I liked and all the ends were very well rounded up at the end! It definitely is one of the more unique dramas, at the baseline yes, its a typical kdrama but then it isnt at the same time, theres so much more to it thats different and better. It kind of reminds me of Rooftop Prince, the revengeful drama with the funny sweet moments, the whole cast is very together as their sideline stories are interesting too! This drama made me on the edge of the seat the entire way through, gave me tears from laughter and the sadness, kept me in suspense and trying to figure out all the little mysteries, it definitely is worth a watch...and a rewatch! The OST isn't amazing compared to my other favourite dramas nor is it very extensive but it suits the drama and makes me well up each time! I like that Hong Ki lent his voice for it and Cho Ah's female version sounds really good too! I hope you do decide to watch this! I definitely wasn't disappointed! Excuse me whilst I go fangirl on Tumblr!
