Café Minamdang Episode 2

Better than first episode

Better than the last. Not keen on the ghostly fight scenes and hair flying. Giving the impression that a woman can't be a strong fighter without a supernatural element at play. Comedy was better. I am enjoying the mystery element. I don't find the male lead over the top. That is part of his persona as a shaman and most such characters are a bit OTT. I will improve my rating if they stop undervaluing the female lead with their editing. You can be a good fighter and get hurt. No need to make it look like she is unbeatable. And if you are going that route, don't turn her into a helpless/trapped woman later. Finally, the age gap between the male and female leads was bizarre to say the least since their real ages are similar. Could she not look up to him unless there was a decade between them? My criticism is only harsh because of my high expectations.
