Reviews

Realistic, creative, and poignant.

Damn. You can really tell the director knows what he is doing. The entire show from costumes to editing is perfectly stylized. Also everything is shot so artistically.

The characters felt so realistic and this was further pushed with subtlety in the acting. Lines between friendship and love stay blurry witch lead to raw emotional turbulence, perfectly captured by this show's amazing cast.

Gel boys is a comedic and tragic look at the lives and loves of teens in this day and age. I have never seen characters on TV use their phones more than in this show. (If anything these characters were bigger phone addicts than the average teen.) But every time a character was on their phone it felt so natural and I loved the ongoing incorporation of text exchanges and social media use. Like this is how real teens are using their phones people! (Also blocking someone on Spotify was so real.)

Overall this show is a beautifully made look at modern teen culture including relevant topics such as idol worship, TikTok, Insta stalking, fashion, music, spending money on useless things, melodramatics, situationships, and most importantly nail polish.

Lackluster romance

Dilraba effortlessly embodies the role of He Simu, a sovereign spirit. Her visuals are truly stunning.

However, I ended up dropping the drama. I went in expecting a darker, more serious storyline, largely because the trailers felt very intense and heavy. It feels misleading when the actual show turns out to be overly cute and lighthearted. While her character is meant to be ignorant of 5 senses, portraying her as excessively childish—reacting to basic things like a child given a grand toy when she is given some senses in a period of time—doesn't quite fit the narrative.

There was potential for powerful scenes, such as the moment she is repeatedly stabbed by puppets. It could have been a raw, painful experience, especially since it was her first time feeling pain. Instead, she handled it too easily, which felt very underwhelming. It seems the production focused too much on aesthetics and looking pretty, to the point where the emotional impact was lost. Being visually beautiful means nothing if the scenes don't make you feel what you are supposed to feel.

And let us not even mention the romance—it is easily the laziest and most boring I have ever encountered in a C-drama. Their feelings seemed to develop simply because they are the main leads, not because of any genuine connection. It felt rushed and shallow, lacking any real depth. Furthermore, the scene where the male lead kisses the drunk He simu without consent, when they aren't even in a relationship, was the final straw for me. That was unacceptable and the reason I had to stop watching.

In conclusion, the visuals, cinematography, and OST are excellent. But the execution and the romance leave much to be desired. I cannot speak much for the overall plot since I dropped it early on.

I had gone through all negative reviews, and was expecting the worst

Chinese dramas usually have the same issue- unrealistic storylines, with over exaggeration and rushed romance at the end.

Which means...
We are used to it, do not really take it as a negative, but more of a "we cannot change it". That's the Chinese style.

Saying that, the reviews that said the plot is crazy and that the FLs actions and past doesn't make sense, THEY DO.
From episode 1 we say the FL isa "bad" woman, however she does help a man, saves his kid (twice) and makes him happy with "magic tricks". That's her. Supposed to be mean, but knows wrong from right. It only gets better from there.

One negative issue I have is the ML doesn't suit the role, great as an actor but not as the ML here (personal opinion, does anyone else agree?)

Always Rising, Never Ending: Heading to the Climax

Climax felt like a road trip. You're eagerly awaiting the final destination, but there's some stops along the way that you need to go through first. That is the most concise way I can describe it. There were some highs and lows, but we (at least, I did) made to the final destination: the climax.

The Highs:
The acting - The strongest part of the series to me. Especially with the 2 protagonists, Bang Tae-Seop (Ju Ji-Hoon) and Chu Sang-Ah (Ha Ji-Won.) This drama actually made me a Ha Ji-Won fan! And it also changed my perspective of Ju Ji-Hoon (then again, Five Fingers isn't the best example of his acting in the first place.) Cha Ju-Young was good but she overacted often. Nana was great- understated, distant, but observant. Definitely checking out more of her dramas! Oh Jung-Se did well with what he was given. The supporting cast was good enough, too.
The directing - BEAUTIFUL. Some of the best directing I've seen in a k-drama. The camera work, angles, lighting, and symbolism (like the stairs scenes in the final episode, plus the recurring motifs of things like hotel rooms and toilets, representing characters at their lowest points) worked incredible together. All to create the mood and atmosphere of a neo-noir political thriller.
The music - I liked the soundtrack. The BGM is very good too. Not too repetitive, and again, there's not much to use within a 10-episode series.
The sheer audacity - Yes. Lee Ji-Won's audacity to write a political thriller exploring the dark side of humanity and how far people will go to achieve their own desires, and her audacity to do it with a lesbian female protagonist, AND actually showing her sexuality on live television. Kudos to her and kudos to Ha Ji-Won for portraying Chu Sang-Ah so well.
The ending - As I said in my comment, I liked the ending. It changed my perspective on the drama a little bit. Despite its clear flaws, it was thematically brilliant. Even after Sang-Ah and Tae-Seop get those ambitions they crave so badly, the fight never stops. They've both reached their respective climaxes and the only way to go now is further up. A very unconventional, but truly realistic ending. It's not happy. It's not sad either. It just... is.
The themes - There are several major ones. The biggest one that stood out to me was greed vs. morality, and this one worked VERY well. All of the main characters were greedy for something: Sang-Ah - Status. Tae-Seop - Political Power. Jung-Won - Fame. Yang-Mi - Control. Jong-Wook - Recognition. And they all went about their own ways of getting these things. We saw Sang-Ah and Tae-Seop go to the depths of ABSOLUTE hell to get what they wanted. It was almost sadistic, in a way. But they did win. And it was a pyrrhic victory... because even at the end, they were in hell: trapped in the cycle of power. It'll never end for them now they've reached their climax. Another major theme that stood out was the patriarchy and its hold on power. There's something about femininity/masculinity (in terms of power and its portrayal) that was used in this drama that I genuinely loved. Yang-Mi pursues power and runs WR Group like how she thinks a man would. Jong-Wook was flashy and sought to prove himself worthy of owning WR Group, just like an entitled man would. Tae-Seop was methodical and cunning, but still intimidating, Jung-Won was cold and distant, and lived a quiet life away from the political & business machinations. Only used like an attack dog when Tae-Seop needed her. Sang-Ah, in contrast, was femininity. Desirable, beautiful, famous. Perfection. Everyone wanted a piece of her and what she *represented.* And this was what everyone saw on the surface. Sang-Ah masterfully used her femininity and beauty as a weapon: to manipulate others and to use them. Brilliant writing decision. Again, I wish we'd seen this villainous side of her more. There wasn't enough of it for me!

The Lows:
Character development - My BIGGEST problem. I'm not expecting character studies in a 10-episode mini-series, but some of the character decisions and arcs were weird. Jung-Won's arc in the last 2 episodes fell apart, especially with how things ended for her. I understand that she was a pawn trapped in the game of power, but... I just feel like she was done so dirty. 💀 Sang-Ah, too. I wish they'd leaned into her villainy more. I don't need her to be over-the-top (like Lee Yang-Mi was), but she mostly just got dragged through hell a LOT. It was only in the last parts of the drama that we really saw her fight back (and not by very much.) So, to me, the female characters could've used better character development. They could've also gotten rid of Kwon Jong-Wook... he ended up playing no major role in the series. Lol what a waste of Oh Jung-Se. I hope he got paid well for doing nothing.
Writing - In several areas, there was a lot that could've been improved. The overreliance on shock value was disappointing to me. Seeing the 2 protagonists humiliated almost constantly brought down the quality of an otherwise nicely written series. I blame this on network restrictions, but partially the writer as well. Sang-Ah and Jung-Won's relationship (while I wasn't expecting a perfectly happy ending for them) could've been handled much better. Tae-Seop's ending? I guess I could say that he got what he wanted, but gaining power cost him his soul. That does not excuse some of his actions, however. Sang-Ah's ending, did I like it? No. Did it make sense? Debatable. Also, the last episode mostly left me with questions- and quite a few plotholes. 🤨
Lee Yang-Mi - Yeah, I included her in a separate section. She was so 1-dimensional and over-the-top that it ended up feeling extremely out of place. Sometimes it was funny (like her villainous breakdown at the end), but most of the time it made me roll my eyes and skip her scenes (occasionally.) Also, her "big motive" SUCKED. Lousy writing. For a drama with such an unconventional, villainous, and complex female lead, you'd think the antagonist would match that energy. But she did not. Yang-Mi was a fucking clown at best. Cha Ju-Young's overacting didn't help, but I think she did her best with what she was given.

Should You Watch It? - If you like thriller dramas with morally complex to flat-out villainous central characters who are willing to do ANYTHING to achieve their ambitions, watch it. If you like political thrillers centering on a morally grey/villainous ML, watch it. If you like morally grey characters, watch it. If you're looking for something refreshing, watch this (or at least give it a try.) If you like slow-burn thrillers, watch this drama. But if you're looking for a nice romance drama? Skip it. And if you're looking for a makjang, skip it. THIS IS NOT A MAKJANG DRAMA!!!!

As for whether I'd rewatch it? Maybe. I don't usually rewatch shows, but it might get a 2nd chance from me in the future. Oh, and a bonus 0.5 points for the outfits and styling (for the protagonists & Jung-Won.)

My overall rating: 9/10. Not perfect, but a great drama. Glad I went on this weird road trip with other lovely passengers (and a few mean ones along the way. Haha!) Still loved it!

A severely misjudged Drama

Firstly, I find it hilarious how people on this platform rate dramas because they hype up the most mediocre stuff ever.

However, this is not one of them but it is highly misjudged in my opinion and deserves a higher rating. The biggest issue this drama has, is the fact that people drop it after 5 episodes.

I’ve watched Chinese dramas for years and this one is pretty good and a lot of fun. I admit, the beginning is a bit confusing because things are not explained properly, like certain relationships between characters or even the way the martial arts system works exactly. If you’ve watched enough Wuxia dramas, you’ll catch on but for newcomers, it can be a bit rough. There is a lot of people and names to remember in this show, so you have to pay attention.

There is some choppy editing as well but it gets better as the show goes on.

Now the good parts:

The plot might seem complicated to follow but I like the fact that everything is connected. There are plot points that are layed out from the beginning, that come back later and for the most part, this show makes sense. I find the story genuinely interesting because it directly affects most, if not all the characters involved. It has an effect on the entire world they live in, so the stakes feel high. A lot of historical or fantasy dramas use politics and power struggles as a plot device for the leads but it gets boring after a while because they just solve cases for people or about people nobody cares about. While you’re probably not gonna care about every single character that shows up in this show, a lot of them are at least there for a reason and they don’t bore me.

Most character’s actions and behavior is understandable for who they are and I like that a lot of characters actually become bigger than who they were in the beginning, especially the second male lead and so on. I like that they have ambitions and goals beyond the title or duty that was bestowed upon them or that they were born into. A lot of side characters don’t just get thrown to the side but they have a purpose in the story, even if it is a small purpose.

In the beginning, it seems like a lot of them have a certain part to play, there are supposedly good people and bad people but it’s never as simple as that. This story makes characters question their morales and rethink their entire lives, it challenges them and their believe system.

One of the best aspects of this show is the chemistry between the cast, especially the male and female lead.

The male lead is a morally gray character with a mysterious past that gets revealed step by step as the show goes on. He manipulates everyone around him to reach his goal and get what he wants, including the female lead.

The female lead is kind of the opposite of him. She is outgoing, a free spirit, bright and righteous and has very strong morales.

Both characters come from different backgrounds and should not get along.

While the male lead might put people off because he is a “red flag", I think in this drama it was done in a better way because he is actually redeemable. His actions, while manipulative and morally gray, stem from complex psychological trauma and intense devotion rather than simple, unprovoked misogyny or abusive entitlement, like a lot of other male leads. He is more like an antihero. He is defined as a broken young man with a painful childhood and he was abused. He never really felt love or trust, besides from people in his life who died.

His red flag behaviors—manipulation and obsession—are driven by his need for the only light in his life, the female lead. He uses manipulation to be able to stay close to her (and for his other plot goals), even if it means he has to lie. He feels keeping her close to him at all times is love, because he is so afraid of losing the only person that matters to him now. He learns about what actual love is like, throughout the show. Because she sees underneath all of that and sees the broken side of him that feels hurt and vulnerable, he feels drawn to her. She accepts him for who he really is, but she struggles with the fact he manipulates her, even if his feelings for her are true. That’s why she does not back down and she tells him off when he did something wrong. She does not excuse his behavior but helps him learn from it. His intense, often desperate, devotion is viewed more as romantic obsession that turns into love, rather than malice. They have this push and pull and he knows she is drawn to him too, so he keeps pushing but once she is serious, he does not force her to stay with him.

The FL is not a weak, trapped damsel, which makes the "red flag" aspect less irritating. She is strong, intelligent, and often matches his wits, enabling her to deal with his machinations. The relationship is a slow-burn battle of wits. She recognizes his manipulative nature, sometimes uses him back, and trusts his competence even when she wants to keep her distance. The male lead is aware of his flaws—his obsessiveness, pettiness, and willingness to use dirty tricks. He doesn't act as though he is a "good guy," which makes his behavior more tolerable to viewers compared to manipulative characters who believe they are innocent.

Despite his ruthlessness, he is shown as insecure and needing to be trusted, which makes him more relatable than a purely abusive antagonist. He also doesn’t show ruthlessness to people who don’t deserve it, unless he feels like he has no choice but to use them. He showed that he is capable of personal growth and becomes more open about his intentions, aiming to be a better person for his partner. He really changes throughout the show and there is a line he never crosses so in a way, I could empathize with him.

Lastly, it makes me sad that a lot of people had issues with the costumes and so on, because this is actually quite a realistic costume for Wuxia dramas. The overly bright colors and so on that y’all see in other dramas is just to make it look flashy and good and gain attention. This is what it’s supposed to look like. I think it looks more realistic and better this way. it looks less cheap this way.

I also highly respect that the team filmed a lot, if not all of it on a real location instead of green screen. They went to the mountains and even learned a lot of fighting choreography which the actors performed themselves and looked quite good. They also used their own voices instead of dubbing.

I can see, they worked hard and tried to actually create a good story beyond your stereotypical idol drama where even the main plot is just a side plot to the romance. This drama teaches you about so much more, like where do you belong? what is right and wrong? who am I? what does it mean to forgive? why do I compare myself to others? true friendship and what it means to support each other no matter what.

I don’t want to give the plot away but there was never an episode that felt boring to me and I never knew what to believe, because I didn’t know if I could trust certain characters. It’s almost like a puzzle that you’re trying to put together along with the leads.

Sure, this drama is not perfect but if you care about a decent Wuxia, please don’t judge it based on other’s opinions who dropped it so soon. Because it’s not the easiest plot, I get why this is not for everyone but I’d still recommend it and frankly speaking, this drama is a lot better than most period idol dramas these days that get a lot more hype. I rated it so high because of my enjoyment but the rewatch value is lower because it’s simply not everyone’s cup of tea and there might be some flaws that bother others too much too overlook them.

PS: there are some tropy scenes in there but they are not cringe compared to a lot of other dramas. I thought the sweet scenes were enjoyable because it was not exaggerated. The acting in general felt quite natural to me. Sometimes when cgi was used, for example on animals, it didn’t look good but I can look past that.

A stylish thriller where every character—and every painting—holds a secret meaning

Siren’s Kiss stands out for the way it pulls viewers into the Korean art world, not through museums or ateliers, but through the high‑stakes, high‑gloss environment of auction houses. It’s a world where beauty is currency, reputation is armour, and every transaction hints at a deeper story. The drama uses this setting to build a layered thriller that constantly asks: who is performing, and who is revealing their true self.

One of the most satisfying elements is how the title Siren’s Kiss unfolds into multiple meanings as the story progresses—referring not just to a painting, but to temptation, betrayal, and the dangerous allure of truth. The show rewards viewers who pay attention.

Han Seol A is a standout. Stylish, impeccably dressed, and fully confident in her authority as the senior auctioneer, she commands every room she walks into. Her poise becomes part of the show’s visual language—sharp lines, bold silhouettes, and a sense of control that makes you wonder what she’s hiding, and what she’s protecting.

Cha U Seok, meanwhile, brings a grounded tension as the insurance investigator whose motivations are never as straightforward as they seem. And Chairman Kim hovers between art aficionado and master thief, keeping the audience guessing until the end.

The production is sleek, the pacing assured, and the acting uniformly strong. Park Min Young delivers her best role in years. Her transition from rom‑com leads to more complex, dramatic characters has been gradual, but here she fully arrives—layered, enigmatic, and emotionally precise.

Siren’s Kiss is a well‑made, engaging thriller that blends glamour with moral ambiguity. It’s stylish without being shallow, clever without being convoluted, and anchored by performances that make every twist feel earned.

Best Historian Cdrama in all my 8 years of watching

I cannot express the happiness and the heartbreak this show has caused me. I've never loved a female and male lead as much as I've loved them. Somehow, I was able to love even the villains of the show and still cry at the losses. Not only are the actors sooo beautiful and attractive, to the point where my motivation to keep watching was to see the female lead in pigtails again, but it's also so amazing seeing such a strong female and male lead fight alongside each other, and how they both were so protective of each other. The side characters did not disappoint, and there was such a sense of unity that made me sob sometimes. I watched the 40 episodes in a week, and it would have been shorter if not for my finals, but this drama displayed so many traits that you can tick. The character development, even when both characters were perfect enough, really was the cherry on the cake, and it was so fulfilling seeing other romances play out; the plot twists, really, were insane sometimes. I NEVER give reviews, but honestly, this takes the cake in making me cry, laugh, and all the above. Really, I think you should watch even though you might not watch dynasty dramas; without spoiling, this is really worth it.

Some very good elements in a mid atmosphere

The acting in this drama was intense, but somehow that didn't transfer through the screen. Nonetheless, I'm a bit surprised by how low the MDL rating is. There were quite a few things to like.

The main characters are smart and stay smart but don't always make smart decisions. Firstly, I love actually smart characters and secondly, I love it when they aren't presented as flawless. Side characters aren't forgotten and continuously impact the plot. Especially the relationships forming between all of the characters were a true delight to watch. They weren't only there to drive the plot but felt like a true part of the drama.
Emotional, suspenseful and funny moods changed fluidly, offering moments of wisdom that were delivered quite well without feeling lecturing or overbearing. The pacing was steady with constant little spikes of hope to keep you guessing without any promises. Everything was goal-oriented without unneccessary side quests.
While there were hints and foreshadowing as to who the bad guy was, I couldn't be sure until later in the drama. The attention to details here makes it suitable for a rewatch or two.

What I think threw most people off initially is the tonal shift from actually delightful deceit to a bigger plot going far beyond what it initially set out for. I'm not gonna lie, I wish they hadn't taken that route.
The storytelling got dull after a while. Being thrown many "afterthoughts" after suspenseful scenes, I wasn't able to actually feel for the characters and root for them. It made me distrust what I was seeing and it felt successively less sophisticated the more often it was employed. The characters seemed to think the same and I felt that especially the ML was way too unbothered for the scope of things (and his weirdly made-up empathy disease). It all got topped off with too many lucky coincidences. I should have felt satisfied when the characters made progress, but it wasn't their skills rather than the author's writing that made these possible.

Would I recommend watching it? Unless you don't expect a masterpiece, yes. You might be surprised by how many things to like you find. I will definitely miss the characters.

A Beautifully Haunting Love Story

Love Beyond the Grave opens with a striking and immersive introduction. The first few episodes immediately establish its mystique, fantasy, and emotional depth in a way that engages and draws viewers in. The storytelling unfolds smoothly, steadily building toward a larger, more intricate narrative.

At the heart of the drama are He Simu, the powerful yet emotionally restrained Sovereign of the Spirits, and Duan Xu, an admirable and skilled general with secrets of his own. Their connection—through the sharing of senses—adds a unique dimension to the story. Simu, who has never truly experienced the world, and Duan Xu, who becomes her bridge to it, are written with a level of nuance that makes their relationship especially compelling. It isn’t driven by grand declarations, but by unspoken understanding—Mòqì (默契). The way he instinctively senses her presence, the way she always knows when he needs her, the quiet gestures between them, and their sacrifices for each other—these moments carry a surprising emotional weight.

What makes their bond so captivating, for me, is the subtle undercurrent of sadness running through it. Even in their happiest moments, there’s a lingering sense that something is just out of reach, that their time together is fragile.

The pacing stays remarkably consistent throughout. Rather than slowing down, the story steadily builds momentum, layering in tension and emotion as it moves toward a rewarding final stretch.

Visually, the drama is a standout. The cinematography, costumes, and settings are beautiful, with thoughtful composition and color tones that enhance the ethereal quality of the spiritual world. The special effects support the fantasy elements well, and the action scenes are well done. The OST is another highlight—it blends seamlessly into the narrative and elevates many of the key emotional scenes. Many of the songs will remain on my playlist.

The performances are what really bring everything together. The leads share a chemistry that feels both natural and intense at the same time. Dilraba and Arthur Chen fully embody their roles, to the point where it’s easy to forget you’re watching actors—they are Simu and Duan Xu.

As a couple, they’re incredibly endearing. I find myself rooting for them from the very beginning, holding onto every small moment they share because of how fragile their happiness feels. Their connection is built on strong, unwavering devotion, which makes their relationship all the more affecting. At the same time, as individual characters, both are likable, with their own strengths and vulnerabilities that make me invested in their journeys beyond just the romance.

What impressed me most is how well both actors emote. They don’t rely on dramatic lines to convey feeling—so much is expressed through their eyes, their facial expressions, and even the smallest shifts in body language. Whether it’s longing, gratitude for the time they share, or heartbreak, they make me feel it without overplaying it. It’s their excellent and emotionally rich performances that make the story resonate as deeply as it does.

The supporting cast also leaves a strong impression. Zhang Li and Miles Wei, in particular, stand out—especially Miles Wei, whose character is layered enough to be both evocative and deeply frustrating in the way a well-written antagonist should be.

Characters like Chen Ying, Feng Yi bring a welcome sense of warmth and humor, helping to balance the heavier emotional moments of the story. And beyond Simu and Duan Xu, there’s another tragic relationship that I found myself unexpectedly invested in.

By the final episodes, the emotional weight fully settles in. The drama leans into themes of obsession, love, sacrifice, and fate, and for the most part, it delivers. The ending strikes a balance between bittersweet and satisfying. Even without the special episode, the original conclusion felt complete to me, offering a sense of closure for our lead couple. The special episode simply gives a little extra for the romantic in me who wants something more complete and definitive.

Despite a few loose ends, Love Beyond the Grave succeeds in what it sets out to do. It’s a story carried by strong performances, a gripping love story, and a blend of worlds that feels both beautiful and melancholic.

This is a drama that will remain on my rewatch list.

another DRAMA RUINED BY A BAD SECOND HALF.

Plot: 2 childhood friends discovering feeling for each other.

Observations🗯️🗯️

I fricking loved the first half of the drama. It was really sweet and Light-hearted. These kind of drama usually are more heavy on cuteness, but this one was also really funny.

The first episodes take place in highschool where we meet our ml and ml. They've been fraternal friends for whole their lives but at the end of highschool our little Didi starts seeing our jiejie under a different light.

This first half is really engaging because we experience their school life, friendship and private life.

There is definitely more stuff happening in the first half than in the later episodes.

We focus on our FL struggles with school and having dreams and on the ml past with his father.

Their friends are also an important part of their development.

Unfortunately once we leave highschool and enter university everything becomes flat.

The main focus is of course our ml pursuing his jiejie but when they get together, the drama declines drastically.

Nothing of substance happens and whatever is on screen is irrelevant.

The last 10 episodes are basically other people trying to get with our protagonists. Everyone is in love with them and this trope becomes tiring pretty quickly.

I know that this is a slice of life kind of shows but not even the characters are able to hold your attention.

Even though years have passed they all stay the same. They way they speak, act, not even their clothes change.

It was frankly Bizzare seeing them act so childish but at the same time talk about marriage, living together.

Even the kisses felt "childish" after 3 years of dating.

There is no saving grace In the second half. The characters they add are inconsequential.

The only main thing happening was the FL best friend falling in love. It was cute but not interesting enough to be honest.

To summarize:
Positives✅✅
Female lead. I know she always plays this kind of character but she does it damn well. She and her best friend relationship was super funny.

The first half of the drama. Perfect when you feel down and just want to see cute stuff.

Negatives❌
The ml acting. Boy was he bad.

The dubbing. It is often out of synch and weird in same moments.

The parents literally bullying a kid. When the FL invites a friend at home they are so rude to him because they fear he is going to "steal" their future daughter in law. Weird and frankly disgusting behavior.

Too corny. Talking about your kids wedding in their first years of college.. really?
The guy just graduated high school and is thinking about a family with her soon to be girlfriend.....

No characters development with very few exceptions. The only person I feel did grow up was the FL best friend.

Is it worth it? I think it depends on how much you can endure. If you are fine with corny stuff I think you'll be good watching this.

Sometimes all you want is the fluffiest rom-com!

For a slice of life, small town, rom-com, this show had a stellar set of cast that pulled the fun storyline together.
The main couple were just adorable together - ML was the greenest forest you could ever ask for. Though, I was slightly perplexed at times when he was made out to be not quite human, having super strength. He as just an averaged sized guy - totally human, and not fearsome, yet everyone was afraid of him!

I went in for the rom-com, mostly for a palette cleanser, and I've had this show on my watch list for a while, but I stayed for the lol moments, the sweet moments, the character growth, the 2ML, who had more face card than than ML (only in my opinion) the cute nephew, and the adorable doggo.

A definite watch if you want something not heavy and all fluffy. :)
