What a waste of story and actors - but the final comments are WICKEDLY FUNNY

The drama is a total disaster, even worse than WTSG and TIH.
BUT the comments after the last episode are hilarious. Read them and you will have a wonderful experience of the best comedy ever, I was laughing so hard, tears went down my face and my abdominal muscles feel really worked out LMAO

Just saw a wickedly funny, desperate, desolate plea for mercy, a comment saying:
ep 8 cliffhanger is a THREAT OF SEASON 2
LMAO LMAO LMAO this is wickedly hilarious :) :) :)

What kind of drama is this to make people fear season 2...?? LMAO

The comments here are a LOT better than any stand up comedy LOL

I keep laughing so hard reading the comments, tears are rolling down my face and my abdominals got a great workout LMAO

Ogwi got weak when he bumped into the cave and lost his hair extensions,
the cast is 7 punching bags, 4 dead zombies, and 1 hero MDS
mistake failing to put ep 8 as ep 1
I kept watching this to find out if it could get any worse - and it DID
someone asked if they should watch and the comments back and forth were so funny... advices like pretend that this drama does not exist
and so on....
The comments are AMAZING

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR A WONDERFULLY ENTERTAINING EXPERIENCE YOU ARE THE BEST

=== AND now to the review - ahem ======

This does not feel like a kdrama because there is NO CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND NO MEANINGFUL COMMUNICATION

It is a bunch of flashy scenes, but all jumbled up and choppy

so overall this feels like being in a video game or cartoon

The only "close up" is learning that Mirr fell for the hot bad boy Ogwi. And yeah TaeSan was friend with the old lady and has issues helping humans, and some other angels do not - but why, why yes, why not... ?.
Other than that, we know NOTHING about the characters

ZERO NILCH NARA NOTHING

this is like watching a cartoon or a video game, so simplistic and so ... boring.

As for special effects - I am totally fine, to me they are super fancy. I am not complaining about that.

I am complaining that special effects took away from the story but THERE IS NO STORY there is just a bunch of events that are completely unexplained and thus WEAK

I will watch it to the end to find out more WHY this is such a flop
It is a study in failure

and yeah TaeSan actor is quite terrible in acting

====== I WANT TO FIGURE OUT WHY THIS DRAMA IS SUCH A FLOP ====
I got some answers to my questions today. At the start of ep 6, Ogwi searches visually for Mirr. *** THAT ACTOR IS SO GOOD, JUST A FEW SECONDS OF HIS ACTING IN UNDIVIDED ATTENTION AND CERTAIN ANXIETY ABOUT MIRR MADE THE DRAMA ALIVE
**** THAT IS *** THE ONLY *** ACTING ***** I SAW IN 6 EPISODES.*****
The drama is DEAD bc nobody is acting. They are pretending something ah so pretentious but there is no acting. Everything is fake.
A FEW SECONDS OF OGWI WAS REAL. Who is that actor? He is very handsome but more importantly, he is a fabulous actor.

After I saw the next scenes with the Grumpy Fat Cat face on the screen and him wobbling as an old fat man - suddenly I realized why the drama is a flop - there is no acting in it. 50% of the scenes are to glorify Taesan character, and Taesan character is super boring, and Taesan actor is super extra incompetent as an actor.

Then there was scenes of the Fat Cat changed his mind and went hammering and the music was .. some rap or something - THAT was awesome too - it was an unexpected twist and it was FUN.
*** this drama flopped bc there is NOT ONE ELEMENT OF JOY OR FUN, EVERYONE IS SO DEAD SERIOUS LIKE THEY SWALLOWED THE FROG THE SECOND AGO... IT IS ***** BORING BORING BORING BORING ***** too theatrical uppity pretentious... like kids playing .... just ...

I have been studying this to figure out WHY it is such a flop. I am totally fine with the props and special effects and fights - I dont care about that, so what is there is all fancy enough for me..... . WHAT I WANT IS TO SEE ACTING AND STORY and of course nice camera work

First, this drama has soooo many scenes of Taesan just going places like an old fat man with that grumpy face, and the whole drama is about trying to glorify him but he is sooooo boring. THe actor is a terrible actor. He has maybe 2 facial exrpessions? and one of those facial expressions - the grumpy worried poker face - takes about 99% of his time on the screen. HE IS SUPER BORING TO WATCH

This camera is choppy, scenes are disconnected. I am not educated enough to know WHY but this ... cameraman? producer??? who is it??? NEEDS TO STUDY

The story really feels totally completely all chopped up in pieces and thrown in the air. Whoever was making the script the story and the camerwork, HAS NO CLUE and seems to lack attention span, focus, and ability to THINK CREATIVELY

and just needs to go back and take some classes ... more classes.... and watch more of masterpieces to figure it out...

To be honest, the drama looks like it was made by someone who plays video games and wanted to make a "live" video game. The lack of quality of the story, of the camera, of the acting, of character development, etc is ALL EXACTLY LIKE IN A VIDEO GAME.
Video games are ... cheap. NOthing personal but they are cheap trashy stuff :) You cannot make a drama like a video game.
So get your face out of video games and start watching some dramas and movies with amazing camerawork and story. ...
