I was really looking forward to this drama since it looked like an interesting mix of medical drama and fantasy, and I was also curious because I think Ahn Jae-hyun is a good actor. I actually really like him in comedic roles, but this role just did not suit him at all. His performance felt stiff in a lot of emotional scenes and at times, awkward, and it made it hard to take his character seriously.

I also don’t think Ku Hye-sun is all that of a good actress. I feel like she tends to go over the top with her acting choices, and instead of feeling emotional, it just comes off as cringe and distracting. That really pulled me out of the story quite a few times. I’ve seen her other works too and I get the same feeling.

Another big issue for me was the chemistry between the two leads. I didn’t really feel any connection between them, so it made it hard to root for their relationship or care about the romance at all.

The beginning of the story actually had potential and was kind of interesting with the hospital setting and the vampire surgeon concept, but after episode 6 it really started to drag. The pacing got boring, the plot stopped feeling engaging, and I honestly couldn’t even keep watching after that.
