Humans & demons.... The good, the bad and the ugly

Just finished this, initially rated a 9 but finally ended at 6

Here are things I didn't like:

1. It felt like she was the only one fighting hard for their relationship, she ran after him so many times and he just accepts, then next 2 episodes we're back at the let's break up cycle again. At a point I was like girl, get up. At least have some respect ? Let him chase you and apologize maybe once?

2. I have to emphasize again on the number of times they broke up. Nah it was infuriating. One minute they're happily making plans, next minute he's stood her and her entire family up, then again as expected she sets off running after him, cries, maybe twists an ankle so he can come give her a piggyback ride back home and hey, next day everything is sunshine and rainbows again. At a point I was unimpressed with their happy "romantic" moments because I was just sure the next episode would be tears galore

3. FL didn't seem to have a stable bone in her body, like seriously how many times can a person run, fall, need to be caught, etc, honestly it just made their whole relationship unreasonable and I saw reason with the dad. Don't even think she'd have lasted a week if they'd ended up together

4. There was zero chemistry like nil, zilch, nada. Just one sided obsession and 2 dead fish kisses like bffr I've seen what my girl SZE can do in TPOB so it's definitely the ML. RJL was one of my first cdrama crush, stanned him so hard i followed him everywhere, but maybe I've had better since then so I'm tentative when I see his shows now because the romance will solely depend on his long deeply emotional stares, and if every other part of the story doesn't hold up to cover for the lack of romance it leaves you unfulfilled real quick.

Here's what I liked:

1. The beginning to the middle part had tight stories, I especially enjoyed the puppet arc, the painting arc got boring but I loved that the FL could fight in there, how I wish she had them irl, I'd have loved to see her put her mind to learning and picking up some self defense skills at least after leaving the painting because she was basically cannon fodder when shit went down.

2. The mysteries were intriguing. Every story had a deeper meaning. I especially liked the Chilian arc, it showed how humans could be equally vicious when given a taste of power. I was appalled that she went as far as killing him just to take away his identity and this is a lady who had been emotionally abused all her life. I felt sick to my stomach and actually wished they had executed her before she took off to enjoy a life of fame, but he later reported her so I guess she got what she deserved in the end.

Overall, okay watch.
