was right about Sang Un the selfish moron - but this wasn't how i wanted to start this... fate, where u r connected to others in such a way; no matter how many lives u live, u will always revolve around each other. like Shi Ho & Do Yoon who start off as siblings, then mother & son, even in their current reincarnation (though they not blood related, they found a way to come together & form a family), it's a bitter sweet feeling - seeing this twist of fate & connecting thread, leaves me sad....******************************************************************************************************************************************there was a previous comment i made; according to the concept of rebirth, if ur a bad human, ur born as an animal or a bug. so monster's don't deserve to reincarnate as humans, as they evil. but now am thinking maybe this is a way for them to pay/redeem themselves, as only humans have the ability to chose how they lead their lives, no matter into what situation they r born. so maybe that's why Hwal & Sang Un's lives r so intertwined with the other character's, cause their faiths got intertwined & needed sorting out - so the rebrith was a chance to fix what went wrong....******************************************************************************************************************************************back to 1000yrs ago Sang Un cause she could live forever, thought what is a few decades of living with humans until they grow-old or they die, to my mate & me that will pass in a blink. why inform him or talk it over ( ˘︹˘ ) then cause she's mute, she can't save her ass cause she promised not to hurt humans (doesn't matter that the humans r hurting her, unjustly or that they gonna hurt the humans she cares for) just stand there like a martyr & die?!? but then the jilted mate shows up to save her ass & as he lacks the twisted morals & fake b.s. promises. he does what anyone would do & get's murdered & had to sufferer for over a 1000 yrs??? really?!? the cherry on top - the fact that in the current day he's gaslit into taking all the blame, is hysterical IMO******************************************************************************************************************************************he smiled - that meant he was evil? he smiled cause after a decade he saw his mate, she was down for the count & now was standing before him - wouldn't u smile when u see that the person u love was hurt & unconscious, but was now OK?!? he the monster? plz after the way the humans behaved, how they any better then the Bulgasal is besides me. but Hwal is the bad guy - really \(〇_o)/ like WTF with this warped logic.******************************************************************************************************************************************Ok Eul Tae (the MVP of this drama IMO) sadly had to die, but he also didn't get Hwal - Hwal didn't go on a rampage cause of blood thirsty or cruelty. he did so cause his mate was in danger & he was furious that insignificant humans dared to hurt her. the only reason Hwal took his soul & turned him was cause he was infuriated at the betrayal & wanted the chance to hurt the ones that were trying to kill him & the one that "drove in the final nail". ******************************************************************************************************************************************personally i don't get how/why Hwal's sacrifice meant the end of the curse for the humans he cursed in the past. but what i do know is that i didn't want him & Sang Un to ever met again - she didn't deserve him!on a whole this was entertaining but far from perfect especially when the bad-guy is Hwal - when he the only one that isn't bad IMO. but this over & it was fun on a whole so whatever....

the procrastination in this, is killing me - no matter the urgency, character's here will always find reasons to waste time.. it's very frustrating to watch & just cause the writer always suspends the scenes progress to it's logical end, to match the time the main character's move their asses, doesn't negate the waste of time, as i know logically this b.s. *****************************************************************************************************************************************this whole ep was a bit of a headache... i get the emotions (of Shi Ho & Do Yoon - about Sang Un could care less ( ˘︹˘ )) but it was too much drama towards the end of this drama. like i get, we needed the foreshadowing so we would know that (at least) in this ep nothing will do according to plan. the only reason ex-detective Kwon was unreadable to Sang Un, was cause she only got eyes for Hwal. tedious woman that she is. ***********************************************************************so the grand sacrifice of Kwon was excepted. found it ironic that everyone in Hwal's life was an enemy at one point. people that actively tried to kill him, became his family - the irony is hilarious. ***********************************************************************still the only character i feel bad for is Hwal. u can't fault a carnivore that he hunts & kills to survive - why a Bulgasal different?!? unlike Ok Eul Tae (who has become my favorite character in this drama - heck he the MVP that has made this drama worth the watch) who plays with his "food" & is ruthless. doubt Hwal was the same - i stand by my earlier conclusions that he went after humans, cause they hurt him - cause his moron of a partner decided she wanted to live as a human & deserted him. either way i don't believe he the bad-guy in this - she is \(〇_o)/*****************************************************************************************************************************************side note: i don't like going the BL route, every time men r extra chummy with each other. but sorry, the way Ok Eul Tae regards Hwal is more then a bromance to me. even the way he hates Sang Un is like the new gf hating on the ex of ur lover.

this started off bad, Sang Un's fake morality is doing my head in. she so fixated on stranger's (not differentiating between good n bad), she forgot all about her sister?!? how ironic that am starting to think Ok Eul Tae was right about her all along. she a menace!. ******************************************************************************************************************************now am 99% sure that OG Bulgasal (Hwal) went on a rampage, cause someone he loved got hurt by humans (no surprise there, that's what humans do best) & moronic Sang Un (in Bulgasal form) jumped to conclusions, assuming automatically Humans = innocent, Bulgasal = guilt. so she tries to kill, curses (the blackhole) her mate = Hwal. who cause of the curse was slowly dying. who then encounters Ok Eul Tae, who begs to be turned. *************************************************************************************Hwal agrees on the condition Ok Eul Tae promises that when Hwal is reborn, Ok Eul Tae would "turn" him. Sang Un having nothing better to do, spent her time waiting for Hwal to be reborn, wanting to finish him off, even in human form. but luck had other plans & turned her human, while it turned Hwal back into a Bulgasal (minus his memories). so the ultimate bad-guy is Sang Un(!), guess both Ok Eul Tae & poor Lee Hye Suk were right, the true danger is Sang Un \(〇_o)/(ノへ ̄、)*****************************************************************************************************************************************OMO again, she cares so much for the dead, then finding her living sister? who is with a psycho, for all she knows? she keeps stalling & i wanna punch her in her face. seriously wish Hwal tells her to sit her ass down & stay away from him. she keeps tagging along & is only ever a hindrance. finding her sister knocked out - not important. more important to monitor Hwal & nanny him, so he doesn't hurt the bad-guy too much - really?!?. *****************************************************************************************************************************************side note: how ironic the soul that's been "body-jumping" wasn't Hwal's to begin with, it was Ok Eul Tae's all along ~\(≧▽≦)/~ idk why i find it funny - but this hilarious IMO.*****************************************************************************************************************************************also i get ex-detective Kwon holding a grudge against the Bulgasal, cause his young sister died. but(!) as an adult he not have time to think things through?!? rationlize that his sister was weak & sick cause of his father. that she died by accident (collateral damage) yes sad, but Hwal = Bulgasal not at fault... like he an old man, that should know better! aish (⊙_⊙)?

genuinely tired of hearing about "humanity" the savagery humans can perpetrate on each other or those they deem weaker, will make the devil shudder is fear & revulsion. so i am Really tired of character's going on & on about how one should retain their humanity - enough of this b.s lie that is sold here. *******************************************************************************& until this ep didn't have a problem with the FL, yeah she was far from perfect & was even frustrating at times. but that end just took the cake - how does one getting angry cause ur loved ones were kidnapped, put in danger & still missing, not make U see red? wanting to hurt the people that did it? why that not human?!? heck they not related to me & i wanted to see Hwal breaking bones & heads ( ˘︹˘ )*****************************************************************************************************************************************even the flashbacks she had r half assed - her telling him, he was standing among dead bodies - from what i've seen, they both Bulgasal - i.e their food source was human blood. how she feed? or was she vegan?!? & i don't care if she was the one that started the trend of feeding on animals. only seeing half a picture & conveniently forgetting all the times Hwal came to the rescue, getting hurt cause of her stupidity, all out the window?!? tiresome woman!*****************************************************************************************************************************************ugh as is am infuriated that Lee Hye Suk had to die, now we gotta see where the fat monster is taking Shi Ho & Do Yoon (which btw they all would've never had been in danger, if they had sat their asses in the other house). *****************************************************************************************************************************************about Ok Eul Tae, i genuinely donno what is going on. 1st he was after Sang Un cause she cursed him, now he's after Hwal cause he did?!? dude should stick to one story & one person to hate

the twists & turn of this plot lol... am glad Ok Eul Tae survived. he might be a bad-guy that gets up to some evil sh*t, but i like him for some odd reason. so i don't want him to die. ******************************************************************************************************************************************given the flashbacks, i get that Hwal was the Bulgasal that turned Ok Eul Tae. but when we saw Sang Un last flash back she was human & Bulgasal Hwal was massacring her people/village, so i get her wanting revange.BUT how she become a Bulgasal?? & if (in previous ep's) Ok Eul Tae told Hwal, that Bulgasal exist in pairs. who was Hwal's other half?!?? idk maybe i am missing something from everything we have seen, but Sang Un didn't look like a demon with powers when she stabbed Bulgasal Hwal. *****************************************************************************************& why was Ok Eul Tae begging Hwal to not abandon him, the desperation wasn't an act - why? cause he saw him as a father figure? cause they were more then master & pupil?!? there a major plot-point that i am missing to make this whole story clear. guess will have to wait (⊙_⊙;)******************************************************************************************************************************************btw the scene where Lee Hye Suk telling Hwal how important he is to her & that he shouldn't put his life on the line for anyone - that he shouldn't die <(_ _)> that broke my heart & brought tears to my eyes. 1st time i was so moved from the start of this drama. yeah there a lot of sad - heartbreaking scenes but this was the 1st time i really cried.

glad Do Yoon survived & remembered everything, when he woke... was worried we would get the over done trope of amnesia ( ˘︹˘ ) so glad that was sorted out at the start. Hawl finally heard that Sang Un wasn't the one to murder his family. great, but why he not think or asking her " if u didn't kill my family, then why u kill me, steal my soul & turn me?!?..." know that Sang Un doesn't remember, so he might not have gotten an answer. but that one important question IMO.*****************************************************************************************************************************************side note: as much as i think Ok Eul Tae's wardrobe is fabulous - idk what the stylist was thinking when dressing Sang Un \(〇_o)/ she dressed worse then Lee Hye Suk (the reincarnated shaman)(ノへ ̄、)*****************************************************************************************************************************************true love is when being together as a family is more important then getting revenge. Hwal got that gift not from 1 but 2 people. considering his life, let alone his childhood well deserved that finally he is surrounded by family & love. *****************************************************************************************************************************************but what Ok Eul Tae said is something i don't get, why would Hwal ask him to turn him? & did he also request he kill his family??? Ok Eul Tae also said there is always a pair of Bulgasal. which is what male & female?!? but when we saw a flashback (a couple of ep's back) he was the human son of Hwal's adoptive father, then who was Sang Un (in Bulgasal forms) mate?!? who turned Ok Eul Tae?!? & was he supposed to be Hwal's mate/pair?!? & why did Sang Un hate Hwal... did he kill her mate so she want to kill him, if so not easier to kill him as a human then turn him... not making sense to me

i think this the only drama i have come across, where no matter who says the words "lets talk..." it turns into a drive to nowhere & the talking being done, takes over 24hrs (for a few sentence's) (⊙_⊙;)*****************************************************************************************************************************************i hope Do Yoon doesn't die, so tired (mentally) in this drama every reincarnation u see, no matter how much they suffered in their 1st incarnation they aint better off, in their present life. shouldn't the innocent that suffered pointlessly, get a better life?!? what did A Chan do that he deserved to be born blind, with a sick brother & then to get abandoned by his parents \(〇_o)/ & if this not enough, he falls into the hands of his murderer who manipulates & gaslights him until he kills him. what type of karma is this?!? freakin depressing - ******************************************************************************************btw Ok Eul Tae didn't rip his throat out cause then Hwal will know for sure he was the one that murdered him. *****************************************************************************************************************************************Shi Ho feeling the stab in her womb was cause of her power & her past connection to Do Yoon - that's why she felt the pain in her womb as that connected them. *****************************************************************************************************************************************btw i am kinda tired of watching how nonchalant the characters r, especially when they need to hurry - it's getting me so frustrated with everyone.

wait (had to stop this on the 15:35 min mark) wait a sec... if in the flashback we see Ok Eul Tae from a 1000yrs ago, where he's human & (shockingly) Dan Geuk (ex-detective Kwon's) eldest son; 1. how come 400yrs later Dan Geuk still around to adopt Hwal?!???? & 2. if Sang Un in her Bulgasal form saw Ok Eul Tae not just kill someone, but had to stop him from killing another couple of people, cause they were witnesses - why would she turn him?!? something is missing - or just cause ur evil u r capable of turning?!? *****************************************************************************************************************************************i know from the start people been guessing that Do Yoon was the reincarnated son of Hwal. i just assumed we would get to see the same boy (like with every other reincarnated character to date) & Do Yoon being much older didn't fit the bill. that's why when we finally saw Hwal's reincarnated biological father & his son - i wondered if he poor boy wasn't Hwal's reincarnated son. *****************************************************************************************************************************************also Ok Eul Tae bad to the bone - there wasn't a moment were i thought he had any good in him. if there times he seems nice, am wondering what he is playing at. cause he the type that always has an agenda. so seeing him interact with Do Yoon made me wonder... *************************************************************************************************************************but there wasn't a sec, where i thought Do Yoon's brother was alive. if anything the reason Ok Eul Tae would hang around an orphanage is cause he could use those unconnected to anyone who would care r easier to "disappear" & use as he liked.

the twists & turns in this ep were fun, know Ok Eul Tae's sob-story seems legit, but can't buy it. his stopping his assistant from killing Hwal was cause he needs him to end the curse. from what i can see, that curse is like a leash that prevents him from "ruling the world". *********************************************************************************************************************in the previous ep when the Mayor asked him, why he was stuck in that city & wasn't branching out all over the country. he got majorly pissed & gave an evasive answer. i have a feeling that curse has confined him to that cities boundaries. given his power, abilities & wealth he could quite literally rule the world & be quite a brutal monarch at that. so yeah he is suffering, but that is a side effect of the curse, not the main point of it.*****************************************************************************************************************************************Hwal accusing Sang Un of causing his father to be a a dead-beat-dad, not only to him but in his current reincarnation, is a bit far-fetched IMO. same with faulting her for putting the curse on him or making his mother take her own life. i still think Sang Un wasn't as brutal as Ok Eul Tae & cause she tired of his ways, she tried to stop him by putting a curse on him. Hwal's coming into existence was fate, maybe the universe/god also had enough of the ruthlessness of the Bulgasal & thought it was the time for someone to be born that would end them - idk - but from what i've seen so far, can't see Sang Un being some evil-master manipulator. *****************************************************************************************************************************************side note: the character's keep going on about how humans r better then monster.. sorry but most of what the monster did here (minus the super powers) humans have done. in this drama it's explained as if the humans that do do evil, it's cause they were monster in their past lives. which according to the concept of rebirth in Jainism, if your karma as a human is bad, then ur born as an animal or even bug. so monster's don't deserve to reincarnate as humans as they all bad.

interesting ep. finding out that Do Yoon was a "plant" for Ok Eul Tae wasn't that surprising. what is, that Ok Eul Tae seems to genuinely like him. idk about him actually taking care of his ailing older brother - that seems like a lie. but he actually seems to like the kid - which given who he is, is a bit shocking. ********************************************************& sorry but i don't get how the set-up to get almost murdered & then rescued by Hwal would work, unless Ok Eul Tae had a crystal ball that could predict where Hwal would be at every given moment. ********************************************************also if he desperately needs to get his hands on Sang Un, he knows where Hwal lives & where Sang Un is hiding-out, so why he still need Do Yoon to keep tabs?!? ******************************************************************************************************************************************& if he is connected to Sang Un in a way where he feels whatever she is feeling - why he not "get" that he killed the wrong twin, when he was killing Sang Un's sister? as he only seemed to "react" when he was about to kill her. he didn't seem hindered in any way, when he was killing the mother or the twin.******************************************************************************************************************************************side note: this Not boring but in ever ep i have to stop & take a mini break cause of the FL, on a whole she isn't annoying but she tends to act like she's "slow" & it's frustrating at times.

now even i am confused - as is i was wondering how a soul can be spilt in 2. & if the twin that died was the OG Bulgasal, why was she (even then) hell bent on saving her sister Not herself?!? as if Sang Un was the important one (⊙_⊙)?*******************also when Sang Un was attacked by the rainy-day demon in the laundromat (before Hwal came to the rescue) one sec he was fine wielding a knife, the other sec he was badly injured & Sang Un was wielding the knife - then she dropped it... what happened in the moment's that we weren't shown?!? in the moments where we were shown a blurred flashback about something in a cave - bottom line who is Sang Un \(〇_o)/*****************************************************************************************************************************************side note: dude playing Ok Eul Tae is totally enjoying his role - also bomb wardrobe he's rocking Ψ( ̄∀ ̄)Ψ

ok... have to ask - r the mains in a romantic relationship off set?!? cause i am sorry but NEVER seen a main couple get into each others personal space (like this) unless there is a romantic scene. (⊙_⊙;) every time i see Hawl (Lee Jin Wook) get in Kwon Na Ra's (Sang Un) face, i find myself retreating from my screen. only me finding this very weird, considering they not having a friendly exchange (⊙_⊙)? throughout this ep (ノへ ̄、)*****************************************************************************************************************************************also as much as was happy to see ex-detective Kwon (Hawl's reincarnated adoptive father) the more there is of him - the less i like. am glad he decide to quit being a detective cause he's bad at it! he so fixated on Hwal he can't see anything beside him. what, he Not remember that the person he saw sucking blood, wasn't Hwal?!? so.... maybe.... just maybe(!) the Bulgasal he is searching for, isn't Hwal, but someone else?!?????? **********************************************************************************but nooooo why use ur brains when u can use ur brawn & brow beat ur way in life pushing & bullying people until u get the answers u want \(〇_o)/ i don't like him & i really want him to go away. ****************************************************heck cause of him i am liking Do Yoon (the student) even less, cause he might have cute interactions with Hwal, but he more of a hindrance to him then a help - given how he gave the ex-detective access to Hwal. *****************************************************************************************************************************************side note: am 100% sure Ok Eul Tae killed Hwal's family, but he needs Hwal to kill Sang Un cause he can't. cause she was the one to curse him, so he needs her to die & Hwal killing her to take her soul - will mean his curse will never go away, no matter how many times he kills Hwal - as he wasn't the one to put the curse on him. ********************************************************************so he needs to manipulate Hwal into killing her, so her soul dies & the curse is lifted, then he can "take-care" of Hwal - who is weaker then him. given the mural i have a feeling he & Sang Un were like the Adam & Eve of Bulgasalies (lol) but she had enough of his ruthless killing & decided to punish him....

so from what i can gather (am guessing) Hawl was born with the gift to become the sword that can kill the Bulgasal (that's why the Bulgasal would hunt him = i.e the curse). Sang Un in her Bulgasal form was more or less like Hawl (not a killer or a monster) & she wanted to stop Ok Eul Tae, that's why she saved Hwal as a child & got in between the knife of the village man, trying to kill him. she knew she needed him & that's why when he woke (after her saving him from the lake) she looked at him with that sorrow filled look. cause she knew what he was destined to do, was too much to ask from a child. *****************************************************************************************************************************************also am now 100% sure i assumed correct that Hwal wasn't the one after the ex-detective & his sister, cause whenever he attacks - he never causes his "prey" to bleed from their ears & nose - cause he not hunting them for their blood. *****************************************************************************************************************************************& as he didn't hurt (murder) Sang Un's twin & mother, Sang Un in her Bulgasal form wasn't the one who murdered Hwal's wife & son - it was Ok Eul Tae all along.*****************************************************************************************************************************************now the only question i've got, did Sang Un in her Bulgasal form stab Hwal to activate the curse?!? & she didn't count on his killing her before she could convey the info - explaining his mission. or was that also needed to complete the transformation into the "sword" that could kill Ok Eul Tae

so the person that killed Sang Un's mother & sister wasn't Hwal, but some other reincarnated monster. but given the ex-detectives flashback, is there another Bulgasal in this drama?!? cause i doubt even if the ex-detectives younger sister was a reincarnation of the OG Bulgasal, Hwal wouldn't target both brother & sister the way he did - or am i wrong?!? plus he doesn't have a blood lust that induces his "prey" to start bleeding cause of his promise - as his targets aren't for consumption - or am i missing something?!?********************************************************************************************************************************************also read in the comment's that Nam Do Yoon (the kid in the trunk of the psycho's car) is Hwal's cursed son's reincarnation) how can one be sure?!? he doesn't look the same (he is older then the OG boy). *******************************************************************************************************************************************side note: really love the interactions between Hwal & Det. Gu - they hilarious. hope there is more of them.*******************************************************************************************************************************************additional side note: Lee Jin Wook is a really good looking guy, but the hair cut he's got here is just takes it up a notch (*≧︶≦))( ̄▽ ̄* )ゞ & can't stop to marvel at how good he looks. & then Shi Ho appears (Gong Seung Yeon looked good even in her old timey period costume) but in modern garb, she's a knock-out (not salivating over her as i aint gay, but can appreciate her beauty). & sorry but Kwon Na Ra's pales in comparison \(〇_o)/
