The Magic of Community
This is my first kdrama in a long while--I don't know why but the recent ones have been so mediocre and uninteresting that I've not started any and the few I have I dropped early.
This one however was a binge watch. I enjoyed all the episodes and I really liked the end.
The main couple in the drama, Wonbin and Suzy, are cult faves. I am not a huge fan of either--I've barely watched their dramas and I haven't watched any where they worked together. So, my review is not blinded by their stardom and is honest.
I enjoyed Kayoung's character, I totally understand why she was made a psychopath and I think that does put a refreshing spin to the usual fantasy romance. Iblis was hilarious and scary. Dr Choi was such a sweetheart and I hope she finds happiness and love in her life <3
The village was imperfect but sweet nonetheless. The Chang-Sik character, village chief, was refreshing. Loved Pan-Geum's final arc, a badass grandma till the end. I do wish I could smack a few people but that's acceptable.
I actually really liked the other stories woven into the amin storyline--how else would we see all the destruction wishes can bring AND all the ways Iblis twists words to bring forth that destruction.
Anything else? Oh yes, @netflix--great intro, horrible subs.
