Does Man Shik has really two kids ? Because we always see his son but he doesn't talk about his other son/daughter ? Is is an error of translation or did something happened with his other child ??

Do you know why this drama derserve 10/10 ? Because thanks god(s) they are wearing gloves when they are examining the bodies... Seriously I am happy just with this tiny detail.

Somehow I hope Man Shik will know that Yeol Chan almost killed himself because of him but I dunno how he will know except if Yeol Chan himself told him but that would be less interesting I would prefer another way ? Perhaps Man Shik will see him when he has a panick attack because of his past trauma ??

I am awaiting the moment when they mutually evolved and be friend or give some fathermance ? I like their chemistry.

Yes, same I thought the drama would just be funny but it is really heavy in fact... The chracter I hate the most is Dong Geun... hypocritical, thief, traitor, deceitful and loudmouth, seem like writer-nim gives him all the bad behaviors... That surprised me Yeol Chan defended him when he knew whe was lying even if it was for his revenge against Man Shik... At least when Dong Geun was harassing Tae Li I thought he would reacts but not even a little...perhaps in the next episode ?

Somehow the people working from the start for Yeol Chan (Dong Geun, Jung Eun and and I forget the name of the last one ) are really bad people, I don't like them except perhaps Jung Eun at first but seem like she just carea about herself. Perhaps because their boss is too much " nice " so they take advantages.

Exactly...I prefer dramas where every characters shine and help each other instead of only one "almighty" character. That is why I prefer " Mystic Pop-up bar " who is actually airing than this because every characters is intereresting and is useful.

Your idea about the court lady would be more entertaining than what we got here frankly...

haha ! Your comment really killed me I wasn't expecting this answer !! xD
But you are totally right ! And it is common for a king to marry someone REALLY young, it would be a funny twist I can imagine a scene about it : Yi Gon walks past Tae Eul, kneel down in front of the little girl and he aks : Will you be my wife ? and she answers : " I will think about it " and Tae Eul is like " wtf..."

Automatically you know the kindest = higher chances to die even with a banana peel to make the viewers cry a river.
Especially if it is a melodrama.

And then you discover he is not the same, he is the one who took your eraser when you were eight WHAT A TWIST

Then you shouldn't see Lovely Horribly and The King Eternal Monarch, the two dramas where the kiss was the more awkward to see !

That depends to me but it is like everything if it is well done that is funny and good but if for example the character want to clarify the mistunderstanding but he/she is always
interrupted that is really frustrating ! Especially if the other character ends up to know the truth by himself/herself (Like 90% of the dramas lmao) and he/she blames the other characters when the other character tried a lot of times to reveal the truth haha

I REALLY HATE love triangle, it ruined a lot of dramas to me ! Like you said : Because always you know who will end up with the girl/boy so you feel bad about the other one in love or angry about him/her because he/she is clingy as heck when he/she knows there are no rooms for them in the first place. That is harsh but the WORST to me is when the " stumbling block " insist and makes things awkward.
I rarely like love triangle, one of the exception is when the second boy/girl is attentive, kind and smart, know when he/she has no chance and let his love to be with the person he/she likes... For example in Waikiki Guest house season 1 when Hyun Joon learns that Yoon Ah loves Dong goo, he accepts it and move on (all his expressions give what he was feeling and it was sad but beautiful how he lets her go )

The 7 years olds should be engaged by the King lmao they are better than his bodyguards somehow ?

I think they will let us with a lot of questions and just a few confusing answers :/ Somehow I find it draggy like there are actions but at the same time it is not the actions I was expeting I dunno how to explain it. Well we will see !

Yes I get what you are saying that is why I find it really boring as a " twist " because either there was a timeline where he was dead so it is a mistake from the writer or either he wasn't dead then I don't see the purpose.

Frankly I would have prefered if it was someone else to let the other characters shine a little because so far I have the impression Yi Gon is the center of everything and I don't see the purpose of the others characters (except perhaps Jo Yeong and Eun Sub, they are great)

That would be truly beautiful if Kang Bae is indeed her child or descendant somehow ! Yes her mother is the big reason of her actions sor I think it is more likely to be for her mother than for an unborn child but I am happy with the two reasons, this drama is already really beautiful in my eyes I love it !!

When I saw episode 4 and it gives a lot of hints that Mister Gwi was the prince; I was really enjoying the drama even more that is really interesting. I really like Mister Gwi's character and wasn't expecting him to be even more intriguing haha

There are only 1/4 of the drama out but I really feel like Mystic Pop-up bar will be perfect in term or characters and stories. I am the kind of person who prefer good characters over the story and I can tell even if the story is weaker later on ; Mystic Pop Up bar will still be fine thanks to its characters !

I am with you on this, this drama is already so beautiful and exciting ! I love the fact there is a story/ a lesson of morality with each episode but at the same time we learn more about the characters and their stories !!

They hint romance between Kang Bae and Yeo Rin and the other couple is Chief Gwi and Weol Joo.

I secretly hope somehow Kang Bae is Weol Joo and Chief Gwi's descendant (because in my opinion Chief Gwi is the prince but aged and his appearance changed like Weol Joo) . I think she was pregnant when she killed herself and that is why she accepted to do the punishment. Somehow her child survived or was reincarnated and had the sacred tree power to listen to people complains and help them ? Just a guess + with the help of other theories I discussed with others below.

Anyways I am sure that Mister Gwi is the prince but about Kang Bae being the descendant it is just a wish because I love their chemistry as a family. But it is also beautiful if they are not related by blood !

Yes it is a possibility Kang Bae is the great-great -great-....grandchild of Weol Joo and Mister Gwi Aka crown prince because perhaps she was pregnant and gave birth but the child was taken away because he was of royal blood but in my opinion I don't think so because I can't see Weol Joo killing herself if she knew she has still a child Alice Somewhere...

Or if you remember when at first she wanted to go to hell but then she read something, was shocked, and agreed to help 100 000 souls. It was perhaps about how her mother died instead of her but what I am thinking is : she learnt at that moment she was pregnant and when she hanged herself she also killed her child without knowing it. And perhaps the soul of the child reincarnated somehow ?

The theory about the sacred tree is really interesting too ! So perhaps if my Idea is correct too the child in her womb somehow get the power or the sacred tree ?

But I must confirm : Weol Joo and Kang Bae have not the same power : Weol Joo can control dream, Kang Bae can make people talk about their misery and Mister Gwi Can transform himself ( at first for Mister Gwi I thought every spirites could transform themselves temporarily but it seems like he is the only one who can do it )

For Weol Joo ( when she was human ) and Kang Bae it is because when they were bien their spiritual " gate " wasn't closes si they have a special ability but that doesn't mean they are related by blood. Seem like Bodyguard has a special ability too or the contrary : her spiritual gate is close and Supernatural powers can't reach her.

But yeah a lot of time they said Kang Bae was special especially the Death said Kang Bae was strange. If somehow he is the descendant of Weol Joo + his family get the power or the sacred tree this drama would becomes even more interesting, I like it a lot already I have a good feeling about it like I will not be dissapointed

Yes the Bodyguard can disable power or absorb it ? Seem like it dors not work on Mister Gwi but I think it either because she must touch him to disable it or Mister Gwi is too much powerful ( even the Death asked him his help )

So true ! <3 It still amazes me he is 25 years old, like you said he seems younger (or is it perhaps because of his character here ? I only saw him in Goblin before Mystic Pop-Up bar and I found him cute too but not as cute as now in Mystic Pop Up Bar)

+I don't see any romance between Weol Joo and Kang Bae it is more like a mother-son relationship. A lot of people think they will end together but they misread the hints I think because they are the main leads...

Kang Bae reminds her the way she was before : when she was helping people out of kindness

And Weol Joo - Mister Gwi are like parent figure to Kang Bae because he was an oprhan and it is the first time he can rely on someone without hidding his power. I find their relationship really sweet.
