What is the plot of this drama? I don't understand anything from the summary. :(
Yeah the summary is HORRIBLE here.
Here's my attempt:
Our main female lead since she was a child has always been able to see ghosts and evil spirits (think Master's Sun) with only a talisman embedded on an umbrella for protection. Through a series of fortunate (or unfortunate events) she as a child ends up releasing a 'fairy' (our main male lead) -- this fairy promises that if she releases him from his prison, he'll always protect her whenever she calls out his name. Although, just how honorable is this 'fairy'? ...Will he keep his promise, or slither his way out of it?
I'm looooooooooving it so far. It's still just as poignant, entertaining, and endearing as I remember from before. I honestly think this writer is a genius. <333
“I’m afraid again. That the coward inside me that closes her eyes and swings her fist might hit someone. I may not be as good a person as I think I am, and that scares me.”
O mythical, and nonexistent subs! Wherefore art thou subs?
Deny thy out-of-touch overlords (Viki and Dramafever) and refuse thy nonexistence.
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn to existence soon haste,
And I’ll no longer be a desperate and clearly bored AoY fan! ;)
I am so, so saddened that there are no subs for this drama yet. I don't understand why big sites like Viki or Dramafever haven't picked it up. ....You'd think there would be a demand/huge following for it.
If any one watches the last episode please give me spoilers on what will happe to the shithead "friend"…
He testifies against Cha Min Ho and also gets prosecuted for his own crimes in the cover-up. ....He gave him the Nemo fish and also the pen with the recorded Cha Min Ho conversation. He loses his job as a prosecutor too.
He's in jail and tells Park Jeong Woo to never forgive him and Jeong Woo says that he'll wait for him.
I haven't watched this drama but I would disagree with you saying that "Making a woman commit suicide…
I've seen the first 5 episodes, so I understand the initial backstory that @Charming92 is referring to, but I think I would still agree with you. Relationships are complex and breakups (or rejection/humiliation because of one) is a particularly stressful event that can definitely be a contributing factor to a crack in one's mental health, regardless of what year it is.
In much of the world, women definitely have more options, opportunities, and overall freedoms than in years past, so I definitely understand @Charming92's off-putting feelings about the this character's reasons for committing suicide. But humans in general don't process things logically after they experience what they perceive to be traumatic, life-changing events. That's why break-ups are often times considered a giant risk-factor for suicidality. It might not be what we would culturally consider to be a 'good' reason, but it is unfortunately a realistic one.
I still remained puzzled as to why people like it so dang much. I agree with every single one of your points. In the end it was just 'alright' for me.
I thought they really botched the male lead's story--he could have been given much better material to work with (and there were a few scenes toward the end that I liked), but I ended up just being completely disappointed over how quickly they resolved everything with seemingly no effort.

...Fastdrama has subs for it now. :D
...Or maybe I'm doing something wrong.

It's a bittersweet happy ending.
This is infinitely better. <333
