since my opinion of this drama doesn't match other existing reviews, I'll go ahead and write my own;

I'll start with the positives!
the costumes look pretty and cgi is decent and fights look good.

Now here are what bothered me while watching;
-the acting!
ml's acting is a bit too over the top. his over acting took me out of the drama a lot. not that the rest of them were any better!
-lack of chemistry
among the 3 girls and even if I count in his master, none had chemistry with ml!
-the comedy isn't funny.
It's nice that it worked for many but I didn't find it funny at all. it's a shame.
tbh there were some instances that if they didn't cut it with a comedic act it could've been such an impressive scene but they did it several times and it didn't let the ml shine as he should've.
-the dubbing
it's a bit inconsistent. most of the time it's out of sync.
-the camera work!!
it has a nice effect in fights and battles but it's so over used in this drama that it got annoying for me. I'm not a fan of too much camera movements.

You might ask why would I continue watching then?
I like super strong characters that don't bother with other's drama! and my most favorite of such character is the ml in 'the Dominator of Martial Gods' drama! didn't have a huge budget but it was gold!
I was hoping I start liking this at some point! since it was a short drama and many liked it but it didn't happen.
it's not as bad to be unwatchable though.
That being said if they ever decide to make a second season, I might give it a shot!

so should you watch it? maybe!
The humor in this drama has obviously worked for so many and if the other points I made doesn't bother you, go ahead and watch it.
