I had been recommended this show a lot of time but I can say I was quite disappointed that it is not as good as many viewers pretend it is.
The drama since the beginning went on for wayyyy tooo longggg and the relationships in there do not feel like strong and deep since everyone is with everyone else lol.
The nonstop repeat of the 2 3 OSTs at some point became so irritated I had to mute. I dropped at episode 15 after FF since episode 10. The FL overacted so much. Overall it was good but I am very generous with 6/10
I loved this so much!! It was so much fun and the enemies to lovers was on point here and it was not like light enemy since FL wanted to kill ML lol. That pillow fight was amazing! Both FL and ML were funny. I could easily guess if was Oh Seigi who was the culprit since episode 1 before he got hit. He looked suspicious, and it is always the ones who are the closest to main characters who betray them, also, he was one position under CEO so I thought he wanted that. I also doubted the assistant of Su Yeong when he first appeared but I thought he was ruining ML because he loved Su Yeong.
ML and FL were amazing. The whole cast was good except for the ex secretaries which at some point started to become annoying and seemed foolish to be hell bent on revenge when it was something that happened in the world of work to them. Seemed as though they had nothing else to do and that ML was right to be furious at the to start with.
It was a good ending but I wish we has seen more of the main couple and their story. After they got together it seemed their romance faded away. The show was more of the company than the couple, should have been named "crazy company" instead lol. I wish we saw their wedding or more of them in the end. It was a happy ending though and I was satisfied. The crime mysteries were well placed.
I recommend for those who love fun and romance with a pinch of mystery.
The first episode was amazing but after a few episodes it started losing the excitement of the premise, then by episode 12 it lost completely the revenge plot. It was good but it could have been shorter. I loved the first episode but this show could have been an 8 episode show if it was not for the slow paced scenes that took ages to convey one message or for one scenario. FL was amazing, as usual and I loved the character development and the revenge here was satisfying, SFL was great too, the cast did an amazing job. However for the lengthy and slow pacing I give it 6/10.
I didn't think I would like this show as much as I did. I thought it would be a boring story about just past lives and FL and ML trying to recognise each other in the future lives but it was so much more than this.
Loved the FL, the actress is so versatile and never disappoints. The ML too was amazing and other casts played their part amazingly.
The only downturn is the rushed ending and the twist that was not a twist at all, I do not even understand why they put a plot twist if nothing was to be done about it in any case.
I do love how the number of episodes is enough, not stretched like the normal Kdramas, just the finale lacked logic. Otherwise overall it is a nice soft and sweet Kdrama to watch. I give it 8/10
The show started amazingly, with comedy, fun, and the supernatural mystery and scenes were well put. However, in the middle about episode 10-11 it started to lost itself. The story made no sense, it was the same repeated scenario and what started as a supernatural fantasy became a sluggish drama with blank romance and A to B repeat. I dropped at episode 15 because I could no longer torture myself. I just imagined the conclusion in my head than continue to watch with no foreseen possibility of a happy ending.
'do you believe in magic?' = 'do you believe in yourself?'because believing in yourself is the magic. that is…
If you had fun with a boring drama like this then you are definitely the problem and IDC about anything you say about me. Sending personal attacks pertaining to a Kdrama is what mental illness is
This was my first watch for Rowoon and I loved him in the show, the story of the fantasy part was amazing but the FL is so annoying and so many things do not make sense how she lived alone until ML came into her life.
The first time I watched it, it felt so annoying mostly with FL and I was waiting for it to end, fed up of the criminal story, though I liked the past story and I loved all the OST, particularly "It's You" and it is my favourite so far. However upon second watch I found it better because I watched only the best scenes and skipped nonsense scenes like the annoying co-workers or cheating SFL. If you watch only the main characters scenes and some important scenes the drama is nice, otherwise all supporting cast are nonsense. I did not like any of them.
FL was SOO ANNOYING on many levels -Chasing bully co-workers but annoyed with ML for no reason -Trying to be in danger all the time to be saved -Ignoring ML when he almost died for her and was trying to protect her -So stupid on so many levels I do not know where to start such as letting her love spell water roaming freely in public, her stupid face she made all the time, etc.
I did not care about the old second couple, they were boring and unnecessary, fitting nowhere with the story. There was little connection between main leads in real time except the past connection. There was really nothing deep that they liked about each other except for being past lovers.
I keep rewatching mostly because of Rowoon, the OST, funny scenes and fantasy part
I was looking for a historical romance and it is what I got, though a bit less romance and more politics but it was enjoyable.
I loved how they invested a lot in the plot and each characters’ development before going into the future. I was so fond of the little boy who assisted the prince and as much as I was looking forward to the future, I was sad to know he would not be there.
I was very excited in the beginning and was glad it was a 20 episode but midway I started getting bored and the plot lingered on and was very repetitive. The main lead’s love story was not that deep and more could have been done, there were too many flashbacks and repetitive scenes and nothing new.
I hated how the antagonist was able to scheme for so long and was not taken down earlier.
There were definitely some loopholes in the end but it was a good finish and I loved the story and the politics a lot and it was quite interesting to watch.
Could’ve been 16 episodes, it was rather stretchy. Otherwise, it is a nice Kdrama, better than some historical I’ve watched. 9/10 for me.
This was amazing to watch and it really exceeded my expectations. I was looking for a fantasy romance which was not too long and at the beginning of the show, I felt as if it was gonna be something boring or monotone that wasn’t romantic but as I kept watching, the more intrigued I was and the more interesting it became.
It was romantic with more than one love story and also exciting to watch. The cast was amazing. I loved the cases being solved and was curious about the backstory. I normally hate past stories but here it was so interesting.
I loved the little mysteries. The climax of episode 11 DAMN!! I was shocked! I can normally predict twists but here I was baffled!
Maybe it ended too abruptly or one thing didn’t make sense (the last Hell contract) but it ended as it should have and I can’t complain much. It was great for 12 episodes, no unnecessary stretching. I laughed hard at some scenes.
I didn’t expect this would be a 10/10 for me! I loved it so much! I recommend those who’re looking for something short and mystic with a pinch of romcom to watch this.
1. I really loved the fantasy romance here including the mysteries
2. The cast was amazing. From the ML FL to the support like the little devil, Sade, Irem, everyone played an amazing role specially young Grandma was perfect!
3. I loved loved the past love story. I always love the past medieval love stories more. They always feel deeper. The way Genie kept falling over was beautiful 😍
4. Didn't feel any good OST, only the Arabian music was nice but loved the intro, always watched it
5. The SML was hotter than the ML and wish we got to see more of his story than just his purpose of killing Genie
6. The end was good but after Grandma died it felt rushed and made no sense. Kika Young just dying of crying that quick made no sense. Then her becoming Genia out of nowhere? What?? Only good outcome of this is that they both reconciled, even if that itself didn't make sense.
7. Loved the fact it was short instead of stretching for nothing to 16episodes
8. Loved and swooned over the Kisses 💋 I mean they were so unpredictable like the usual episode 8/9 kisses. And they were so long and so passionate. Swoonworthy 🔥
9. What about Grandma dying as a young person and being mourned as an old? Did no one question it? Or did Genie brain wash everyone 👀
10. FL had only 3 wishes but she kept wishing for loads of things in between. Did Genie made hers favourable or was there a glitch in the wishes
11. I didn't like how they made use of the Muslim religion story and characters, always hate religion mix in tv shows or movies, only little traditional stuff here and there are fine but not using stories or names.
12. So many Goblin similarities. Loved both of them.
It was a nice watch. A bit slow at the beginning but it caught up. Love the cinematography and the Dubai locations were great as a change in Kdramas. I did love the story and the past love story was my favourite among the two. Gave an Arabian vibes. Hated that they portrayed the Muslim religion characters which seemed disrespectful of people of that religion. Should used fictitious characters instead. It is a 9 on 10 for me.
Loved all those in the cast especially young Grandma
The second couple had a more attractive story for me. Anyone knows any KBL of the same story? That kind of hate to love from a one sided gay and another straight who then realises he loves the gay guy?
Thanks 4 ur comment. I was going to start it but I guess now I'll skip it. Becoz i hate it when drama don't finish…
Yes. If you are ok with shit*y ending 2nd half part and ending go ahead otherwise I suggest u watch something better and more worthy of your time. The drama started being pointless at ep 6 itself but i kept going, thinking it would get better but it was the opposite.
Squid game season 3 was very underwhelming except the first two games, the last one was just ok. Season 3 was better than season 2 though. However season 1 remains the best among all of them.
What I liked from Season 1 is the way the games made the best and worst come from the players such as seeing if they work well in a team, if they work well as a solo player, if they are able to take decisions quickly, if they can think rapidly when it comes to life and death and how far they are all willing to go to get out alive and inherit the grand prize.
While season 3 did keep that part but the way the players gave in to what others said or didn’t use their brain to help keep themselves alive was somewhat missing. I hated player 100 so much and was awaiting his terrible death so much. Didn't expect player 456 to die but the cause of his death suicide was justified and it was for the best cause. However I wish we could’ve seen more of how the billion won baby winner was living. Was Hwang actually raising her up or what?
There is also that special mystery part in season 1 of who schemed all that and about old Ill Nam not dying and being among the players as he enjoyed others around him dying while he was enjoying himself playing. It was also a big mystery who would win the grand price as we saw some main characters and it was a mystery who would be the lucky winner of it all. Season 3 made it somewhat obvious in the last 2 episodes that the baby would inherit it all since player 456 was not going to let it be killed and he would be able to defend himself until the last stage since he is a winner after all.
