Also they like went to Dubai 4 times in 13 episodes. My God, it was like visiting the next house! That promotion of Dubai tourism was so funny! I want to go there now more than anything! That was their intention and they are successful in that.
Its a drama! A fictional story! Everything that they show is lies! There is no past life, no genie, no lamp, no 3 wishes, no Satan, no God (that humans can see). Yes there are beliefs, thoughts, rules! That is different for different people. No one would really learn any religion from any drama! If they want to learn they would read books, ask elders. Let a drama be a drama!
Its so funny someone said we will burn in hell if we watch it! I mean? Just think with a rational mind. Majority of Koreans are non religious, its their industry, their drama. Their dramas are made for them firstly. People internationally liked it later. Its upto them to decide who their target audience is. You can stop watching anytime you wish!
Someone down the comment section rightly pointed out- don't make your beliefs so fickle that they get shattered by a mere drama!
Huhh!! Completed it finally! Firstly, I am glad I watched it till the end, despite the toxic comment section spreading nonsense.
Negatives-The writing is bad in major parts. I really don't care about the religious stuff, but despite that the writing sucks in some portions, which is weird because the plot was amazing. The pacing, transitions, could all have been way better. But that's on the makers, writers, directors. Ahn Eun Jin was not utilized to her potential. The climax fight scene could have been better.
Positives- Its entertaining, if you pass through a few first episodes. There is humor, happiness, friendship, love, star crossed lovers, fantasy, mystery. The ost is nice. The visuals, vfx is amazing! I think that was the best part. The leads did well, looked good and had good chemistry. The others in the main cast did amazingly well. Steve Noh, was too good. The supporting cast, village people and their humor was good. I loved the ending. Also special mention for all the children casted- the young girl who played Suzy's childhood, made me fear her when she got angry, the main villain despite being just a child stood in front of experienced actors and gave such a fine display of emotions.
Not the kdrama of the year, but not as bad as the reviews suggests. Watch it and decide for yourself. Particularly loved the fact that Suzy and Kim Woo Bin could reunite for another drama, huhh, missed them so much!
Why would they turn our religious beliefs into a joke? For you, everything is just entertainment — you don’t…
Bro you aced it! This! This is so on point. I would never understand how can someone's belief's be shaken by a drama? I mean? If it can then the belief is not strong enough.
more than chemistry its about the script, i havent watched uncontrobally fond but the way you have phrased it…
For me it became decent from ep 6-7. Honestly I might be a little biased because I love the leads. Constructive criticism is always important, but some people are just bots who gave 1 rating after watching a 13 hour drama in 3 hours. I mean!

100%. Their previous drama had a traumatic ending, but storywise I loved it. This drama was meh in first many episodes, but it caught up. But yes this isn't great. Kim Woo Bin and Suzy deserved a better drama for a reunion. I am shocked because, the writer of the drama is critically acclaimed so I don't understand what happened to her. Plot wise, culture/religion wise, I accept and agree to all the faults. But chemistry and acting, for me its good.
People saying Kim Woo Bin and Suzy do not have chemistry? Bro fans loved them so much, cried for them so much, that producers put them back in another show, 9 years later. How many couples reunite again in kdrama world? I mean maybe check your eyes? Yeah, I would have accepted the bland writing of some scenes, even the religious and cultural stuff as some people complain. But rest? The drama isn't the best but also not the worst. Its enjoyable in many scenes. Yeah if you are just a blind hater, then continue. But why waste your time pulling something down? I mean leave the comment section for people who want to enjoy it. You watched, gave review, now move on? What's the point of coming back every few hours and complaining about it?
I am in ep 9, and currently liking it. Yes it became a little meh in the first few episodes, also difficult in catching up with a lot of characters, but it isn't bad as people were saying yesterday here in the comment section. Yes the writing could have been better. But the acting is awesome. Just not the leads, but also eun jin and steve noh, ohh my god steve noh is so fine. I think Eun Jin is not utilized to her potential till now in the drama (ep 9). Honestly this is my favourite genre, fantasy mystery, kind of arabian nights theme, lovers with a bad destiny. I mean nothing nothing could ever make me hate a Suzy Kim Woo Bin drama. I mean have you seen them. Also I am so glad, they have so many scenes together, since the first episode.
Also people who have issues with religion/culture at this point, with no offense to you, just ignore if you can. Koreans are not religious, and they make dramas for their people, then for others internationally. Though Ilbis is his name said repeatedly, he does introduces himself to Suzy's character as Satan, or Shaitan or Ilbis. So yes the scenario is kind of similar even for Christianity and Hinduism. But we can choose to ignore that. Also that's just my opinion, you are free to decide for yourself. My intention is never to hurt your religious or cultural sentiments.
KWB looks hot in long hair. I am scared of Suzy's character in the show. So scared, that till now I am unable to sympathize with her even when her mother abandoned her. The young girl who played Suzy's childhood was so amazing. Also them bickering is so humorous. Generally we see cold bf sweet jolly talkative gf, its a kind of opposite here, which I am really looking forward to.
I want to go there now more than anything! That was their intention and they are successful in that.

Just my perspective. Do what you wish!
Yeah, I would have accepted the bland writing of some scenes, even the religious and cultural stuff as some people complain. But rest? The drama isn't the best but also not the worst. Its enjoyable in many scenes.
