promising premise, but plot falls apart
The name, premise, and look of this drama were very promising. At first. I don’t really go for horror or fantasy type dramas, so I really went out of my way to watch this. And the first few episodes were really going somewhere. But towards the middle I found it extremely hard to keep track of wtf was going on. Like what even was the plot? The characters were likeable, but their motivations felt lost towards the end and there seemed to be action just for the sake of action.
LDW was charming and cheeky. Pretty good with his acting, but throughout the show I feel like he was just Goblin 2.0 but Fox version. I was getting major Grim Reaper vibes and given his success from his role in Goblin, I feel that was intentional. His mysterious backstory was intriguing, but once I found out what happened to his first love I was kinda creeped out. He fell in love with a child?! Very odd choice for storytelling. After discovering that it was extremely hard to get on board with his mission. Ah Eum was okay. I don't know if this will make sense but she looked the role but couldn’t play it. I liked her character’s motivations but her lack of chemistry with the male lead took me out of the romance aspect of the show. They had cute moments for sure but I never fully bought them as a couple. The first few episodes did her character justice, but then it was downhill from there. She just became a damsel-in-distress and unrootable. My favorite character was Lee Ram hands down. He’s kind of the I-wanna-hate-him-but-I-just-cant type character of this show. I found the scenes between him and LDW the most compelling in the show. They gave me Stefan/Damon(Vampire Diaries) vibes and I was here for it. I didn’t think his character would have an arc but he did. A bit rushed, but he was my favorite person in this show.
This show had the potential to be something more but it just became a confusing shit show towards the end. I wanted so badly to like it but the jumbled plot and inconsistent characters made it impossible. Ultimately a waste of time. 6/10
