Unique // Not for fantasy lovers
I had high hopes because the poster and teaser was great. The exposition was marvelous but they took a different approach of the fantasy genre and sticked to the synopsis so it was disappointing.However, the plot was great and unique overall. I believe it's enjoyable to those who are not into fantasy. The circumstances were well ployed and the decision-making of the characters were great. Moreover, the deuteragonist story was unique. The actors were great however they looked bad because of the directing. Some scenes can be done better with more intimacy.

Disappointing, definitely won't rewatch
I am pretty disappointed by this series. It took me forever to finish it, I was not at all invested.I like Shin Se Kyung but her character was so boring and depressing. I hated all the other characters, they were sooo annoying, especially Biryeom and Mura. I also hated the personality of Habeak, what an unlovable character. The only character I liked was Mr. Shin. Everybody was on his case, poor guy.
The love story was boring, I cannot imagine how So-a fell in love with Habaek. He was always rude and haughty and arrogant, what a jerk. And she just accepted everything and fell in love I guess.
The storyline was actually not that bad, just poorly developed, and the characters' personalities ruined everything for me.
I definitely won't be rewatching this, it took everything just to finish it.

I was pleasantly surprised by this K-Drama and feel like it gets a little worse than it deserves. I have read the Mahwah a couple times over the years and in my opinion, it is a classic in its own right. That being said there are not many similarities between the two from what I recall. I believe this to be a good thing and actually raises the score I've given it. I don't think I would have enjoyed this as much if it was a faithful recreation of the manga. By switching things around we have a wonderful little man out of time kind of story which creates fun story opportunities. I felt like the chemistry between the two main actors was solid and absolutely adorable at times. The story can be a bit confusing but that does seem to be mostly intentional. It unravels as you go, and you get more and more info on things that the characters have mentioned or hidden from each other. This may not be for everyone, but I actually found it more interesting because of this. Now I did enjoy this drama, but I do have an issue with it that did lower the score from what I did want to give it. The ending was not anything spectacular, and now that doesn't mean there is anything bad about but it's just boring and almost felt like the big thing, they were worried about the whole time didn't really amount to much. This isn't out of the norm for most dramas I mean of course you have expectations of what should happen with the relationship, but you want the ending to be entertaining at the least no matter what does happen.

I had higher hopes...
Despite the rating I had higher hopes for this one. Fantasy genre plus Nam Joo Hyuk in the main role.Regarding plot it was pretty descent for the first half, it had charm and elements of comedy. But by the end they twisted it in an absolutely ridiculous way. The last episode is probably the biggest disappointment as they plot actually made no sense.
Another negative point is dialogues, mostly between main characters. Sometimes there was like a gap between what the actors where saying and what the scene was actually about
Overall, I would have enjoyed the series if not for it's second half. Because of this I would not recommend it to anyone.

Água com pouco açúcar
Ainda não sei dizer direito o que me levou a assistir, talvez tenha sido mais pra passar o tempo...Não gostei muito da história em si, então não culpo os atores pela atuação deles, inclusive diría que fizeram um bom trabalho com o que tinham, e até deu pra ver um pouco de química entre eles.
No geral, não é de todo ruim, mas não me encantou a ponto de entrar pra minha lista de favoritos ou mesmo dos que pretendo assistir novamente depois de um tempo. Com exceção de algumas cenas, uma vez é suficiente.

Unsatisfying story development
I liked the trailer of the drama and thought of watching it, and somehow, I did like the few episodes, and even the childish banter of the female goddess and her friend, sky god. They were fun to watch, however, I already read the manga version of this drama before this was even made and honestly, it was so different so I was a bit disappointed. I thought perhaps, they were only borrowing the name of the manga but as the drama progress, I no longer found it worth watching and kept skipping parts. Even the romance between the leads were uninteresting and only found krystal's unrequited love with joo hyuk and her banters with her friend as amusing. I definitely feel as if the female lead was an unimportant character that was not really necessary in the story. In terms of the story, it has no rewatch value, the acting is fine, however, I think they could have done a better job for it. however, if there is one thing that is a bit satisfying from this drama are the effects. The effects were fine all. I hope a better story about gods and goddesses are made in the future.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

The Drama's Not That Bad The Low Ratings Are Unjustified.
This show is about a God of Water (Habeak) finding his servant on earth. Which is the female Lead, Yun So-a.The story isn't really anything special in my opinion. It just seems plain. Sure there's twists with the suppose second male lead being the bad guy and having past history but that's in most fantasy dramas.
The acting was actually pretty good! People say that the Female Lead's acting was bad but I disagree. Her acting isn't AMAZING but it's justable.
The Music? Not that Good To Be Honest. Only liked the intro music a lot but that's all.
Re watch value is pretty low. I can't really bring myself to watch more than 7 episodes then come rewatch where I was left off like 2-3 weeks later.
In total, the couple is cute, I say give a try if you have nothing to watch or just trying to distract yourself. Not my favorite but it's good to watch!

The drama looks good at first even though the main plot, as well as the side plots, are not original at all. Still, I wanted to give it a try for the casting, and after seeing how successful other dramas of the same genre were, I have to say, I had high hopes for this. I have seen a lot of people say they had high hopes for this and that was lowkey what ruined everything; I think they are not wrong, but there is no way you couldn't have high hopes for this as both the cast and the story were pretty hot at the time this was released.
What went wrong? Let's start off with the plot and the story in general. I didn't read the manhwa when I started watching the drama -and I still haven't. Because of this, everything related to the world of the gods was quite confusing to me, I personally think the writers should've focused a little bit more on explaining what went wrong with Habaek, the different gods and their problems, etc. In the drama, we don't really find a lot of scenes explaining that kind of information, which is the genesis for the rest of the story. So without a clear base, the rest was almost nonsensical, is like everything turned into a rom-com drama but at a certain point, you wonder, how did we get here? Besides this, everything becomes cliché, extremely repetitive, and very confusing.
Some characters were a waste, at least for me, because of the lack of evolution. We had the (typical) main couple and other couples with their respective side plots. Great, that is how it's supposed to be. The problem arrives when the characters barely evolve throughout the whole drama; I'd dare to say the only character that evolves a little bit and shows us some change is Moora (Krystal) -no wonder why she's the fan-favorite of the drama. Seeing a character evolving, showing us their weak points and different faves is very interesting, especially when it comes to characters like Moora, and that makes me wanna watch more of them to see where are they finally going. But when a character barely evolves and remains almost the same from the time we first met them, then it's a disappointment, almost makes me wonder why did I even watch that in those cases. In Bride of Habaek we barely find the evolution of characters, just like we don't find a grey area, it's either black or white when it comes to the actions of the characters.
Another problem with the characters is how bad they are distributed, or rather the lack of investment in them. We have gods in the modern-day world, making their best to adapt to the world of humans while the "villains" put some traps, and I honestly really liked that, I wanted to see more of that as I thought that could have been a great "thing" for the drama, but it seems like the writers didn't think that way. Without that, do the villains really have a purpose in the drama? Probably yes, related to the original plot regarding gods and all that; if only they explained that! The other issue with the distribution of the characters is how bad they invested in great characters that most parts of the audience liked, like Shin Hoo Ye (Im Joo Hwan) or Moora (Krystal).
When it comes to cast and acting, I have mixed feelings. I think the characters were poorly written, as I explained before, which is a minus point to this part of the review already. I loved how some actors did their roles just like I despised others. Starting with Nam Joo Hyuk, what can I say? I didn't get any vibes from god from him at all and he is supposed to be one of the greatest gods; now that is a problem. It was like I was seeing a man in his 20s being rude and ungrateful for every little thing that happened to him, and not even that really fits Nam Joo Hyuk. Was Shin Se Kyung good? Well... probably? I don't know exactly what to say because her character was really (really) intense and that got on my nerves most of the time. I've seen a lot of people talk about it as a drag for her acting, but I don't think it's her fault but the writers' fault for building up a character that unlikeable. On the other hand, I think Im Joo Hwan was exceptional, Krystal's aura was already defining her character and Gong Myung did quite well for his role too.
The music was one of the best things about the drama. Having as the singers for the OSTs the acclaimed Yang Da Il, Kassy, or Junggigo really added a lot of emotions to this drama. I even still listen to the songs from time to time!
All in all, would I rewatch the drama? Not exactly rewatch the whole thing at all, but rather revisiting some scenes and parts that got stuck on my mind. I think there were some wasted talents on this drama and the potential and the high hopes already asked for a lot of things from this drama that it clearly didn't have from the start. A bad script, poorly written plots, and flat characters make this drama deserve a 4 out of 10.

It was okay
I won’t say I regretted watching this drama, but I personally don’t think I’ll be rewatching it. In the story line, her father came back when he heard her mom apparently died, but then before she jumped into the Han River, she left her mom at home so how was her mom dead? It doesn’t sync honestly.But this drama was okay. It wasn’t bad. But it’s just not on my favorite list
