  • Review

First, I will talk about the script (story) itself. The story is so beautifully written and amazing, it’s rare to see a story with so much depth and back story in it when it comes to mystery-horror-romance. It is of course written by the Hong Sisters who wrote the legendary Master’s Sun, My Girlfriend is a Gumiho and much more.

Then next is the Cast, as I always say, a shitty actor will destroy any script no matter how good it is. The cast of this drama were just so perfect, I have never seen a more perfect cast. Everyone is so involved with their roles that it just seems effortless to play the character.

Honestly a lot of people are surprised by Yeo Jin Goo’s acting in this drama but I really am not. I have been following his acting since I saw him in ILJIMAE and I have since loved him. His acting is so flawless and beautiful.

Lee Ji Eun also know as IU was just perfect for this drama, honestly I think the first time I saw her in a drama was in Dream High which she was amazing. This drama was no different, you could see her years of experience and how she as developed. Just amazing

This drama wouldn’t be as perfect as it is without the amazing supporting actors. They were all just so amazing.

It’s also no surprise that this drama as an amazing soundtrack, I absolutely loved each song and have had it on repeat.

We all also have to agree that this drama won’t be as great as it is without the director, the stylist (honestly IU’s stylist need a massive raise because Man Wol’s Fashion and her obssesiveness of money and lavish things truly came out through her fashion), the location director and so on. They all made this drama so perfect.

There was also quite a few special appearances, Sulli, Kim Soo Hyun, Kim Won Hae, Nam Dam Reum and much more.

  • Little Spoiler

This drama had such an open ending that any interpretation of it is correct but it annoys me so bad. I know it’s not gonna happen but sometimes I wish that there is a Season 2 where we follow Kim Soo Hyun who is the new Owner and what he did.

I do accept that the ending was just perfect, it was expected that Jang Man Wol was just a passerby in this life for Ku Chan Seong and she would find him every time even if it’s in a soup. (If you get it, leave a comment)

  • Rating

I just want to give this drama 10 out of 10 stars because that is just how I feel about it right now.
