Fast paced
If you're going to start this drama you must give it until after episode 5. The first 5 episodes didn't do it for me at all and I actually dropped it, but then went back to it and the story picked up and got really good.There is so much going on here this drama is like a mash of everything, romance, fantasy, murder mystery, revenge, crime... It's also very well acted with good production so it's a great all-around drama. The only thing that disappointed me is the romance. The romance had potential at first and ML does change a little bit but just barely. I was really hoping to see him actually soften with her but he never really does, their chemistry isn't very good because he's always just kind of being with her grudgingly. Their chemistry started to get good in the middle and then for some reason his attitude changed again to wanting to leave her. He definitely protects her and saves her plenty of times and shows his jealousy (which I actually like) but that's the only thing he does to show he even cares about her. For the rest of the time he's always mean or kind of irritated.
I get that there was so much packed into this show it would have been hard to expect that much character development. Overall it's a must see, just don't get your hopes up about their chemistry toward the end.

Maybe SSH had this written into his contract.
"The ending has to be vague or, suck altogether. Oh yeah, and let's have Halloween-Christmas because, Why not?
I want my fans to prove they love me for me instead of my work, just like Lee Min Ho.
Come all my pretty lemmings and I'll show you a cliff. Bwahahaha!"
Don't watch the last 10 minutes of the final episode and you'll be better for it.

18 Episodes of 1 hours and a half each. Analyzing the first half of the drama, you will find a very interesting dark\funny story with a good cast. The drama has a lot of plot twists and it will keep you interested. The acting is good and has a great cast. I have to say I'm not fan of Go Ah Ra but that's just me. Seung Heon does an amazing job and the other supporting actors do a great job. If you like a drama in which most of the tiime you have no idea what's going on regarding the plot, this is for you, but I have to say I have never seing such a complicated plot, the writers really had fun adding stuff lol. The drama is pretty solid into keep you interested but episode 18 (finale) was very weak and left many things open and many make absolutely no sense. I'm not sure if I would rewatch it but is worth to try it out if you have not seeing it

Se non fosse per quegli episodi! Argh!
Fino più o meno al sesto episodio non ero ancora riuscita a capire se l'opera mi potesse piacere o meno perché alternava momenti trash brutti a cose più o meno "belle".Poi mi ha preso tutto d'un colpo.
Giuro, stava diventando uno dei drama più belli e coinvolgenti che io abbia mai visto. Colpi di scena inaspettati uno dietro l'altro
Poi cos'è successo?
Gli ultimi due episodi, ecco cos'è successo.
Avete presente quando il troppo stroppia? Ecco. Hanno decisamente esagerato.
..vogliamo parlare del finale?? Ma davvero??? Ma dai!

Slow. Just...Slow
Okay, Black had one of the most exciting premises that I've ever seen, but it just coudn't perform it well, and it's one of the first dramas that I'm dropping with a tiny bit of pain in my heart. [So cold, wow!]First, I think this drama desperately tried to make gross scenes to catch attention or cause shock. I watched enough horror movies/dramas to know that you can make it at least interesting. In this drama, it was boring and...just gross, nothing else.
Boi, it was slow. Oh my god. Even when I watched movies who were purposely made to be Slow Burn, I didn't have this feeling of "Okay I get it. I really get it. Can we just go past it?".
I like and dislike the random scenes. Cause' they aren't just for the ramdoness, they are there for a purpose and Black performs it well in that part. I guess that it just makes stressing because it's just ramdoly thrown there and after a very few moments that look like hours, WOW IT FINALLY MAKES SENSE - The thing is, you are left in the blue. And it just becomes boring, It just makes it seem like I'm in an parallel universe in relation to the drama.
The acting is okay. But not like, extraordinary. It's just okay. Sometimes it really looks like people there are trying hard not to fake it. I guess the Grim Reaper did a good job though.
Like I said, the premise is so interesting, and in sometimes you look at some scenes and think "Wow, if it was performed in a good way, it would've looked amazing"
I know that my critics may be kind of harsh, but I really didn't say them for the sake of being mean. I think it's good to look at reviews and look at the pros and cons, good and band comments,. Dont take everything that I said at heart though, it may be an bad experience for me, but maybe not for others, and I apreciate all the work everyone envolved in Black did.

not good but not bad
I was curious about this drama since I had started it several years ago, but never actually finished it. Unfortunately, it did not catch me as much as I wanted it to. I really wanted to like it, and I (for one) think the acting is decent. Some people don't like the lead actress' acting, but I thought it was alright. The male lead is super handsome, and I found his acting pretty good since he had two act two contrasting characters. It's the story that just didn't do it for me: it did not make much sense sometimes.1) Mr. Grim Reaper is supposed to be experienced and smart and whatnot but then he keeps on talking to himself about "humans" and how dumb they are, he's overall super goofy and bad at hiding that he's a grim reaper like... Sir. Plus, he has no awareness of his surroundings and people possibly shadowing him. His grim reaper friends literally have to tell him to act more like human like cmon, where is said experience??
2) Mr. Grim Reaper wonders why the female lead cannot see HIS shadow in Moo Gang's/Joon's (? lol, I am not invested enough to figure that plot line out :( )body and then concludes it must be because he's wearing all black. Mf, maybeeee it is because the body you chose is already dead. How should the female lead foresee "your" death if the body already died bffr. I find my theory more plausible than his, how can he convince himself of that...???
So far, the cinematography is nothing out of this world, same with the OST. Overall, I am a bit disappointed. I decided to DNF this on a whim because I was just watching episode 7 and felt like I made huge process, only to see I had only watched like 20 minutes max... so yeah, it drags a little. There are other shows to be watched, so I'll let this one go !! :)

Don’t watch this while you’re eating
There’s 4-5 vomit scenes in the first episode, uncensored extremely disgusting. I was eating and thought it was over after the first scene but at different points of the episode the MC kept throwing up.
