I almost never review dramas that I love purely because they are typically saturated with an over abundance of positive reviews. But this drama seems to have the opposite and I'm not understanding why. I loved this drama. The actors, the characters, the story. I loved it all. The comedy hit well, each episode felt exciting and did not drag, the cast had chemistry, the locations were great, and the story was original enough that I did not find myself constantly comparing it to others I have seen.

A story about a genie with a twist. They packed in quite a bit of information but for me the thread of thought was easy to comprehend and made enough sense. Then you have a psychopath finds his lamp and their story begins to unfold with secrets and dangers coming to the surface.

To knock some points off I'd say there were two things that were unexplored or bothered me. First is Ga Yeoung's mother and family and them telling her they died just to abandon her. There is a bit of a plot hole here for me as the grandmother's longing for her daughter that is obviously selfish and also abandoned her mother with Ga Yeoung was hard to relate to. Then the feelings that Choi Min Ji developed for the grandmother in her younger state felt uncomfortable to me as well and added nothing to the narrative.

Otherwise I really enjoyed binge watching this and found myself laughing often and crying there at the end. I definitely recommend it for a fun watch.
