MY HEART! oh my heart feels like it's been thrown around like a rag-doll while watching this! If you want something emotionally light watch this another day! What can I say! I loved this drama it was fun, the main characters were different then normal, the scenes were presented brilliantly so the emotions were really conveyed. I was begging for Yoo In Na to play the main character in something, I loved her in Secret Garden and The Greatest love, and I got my wish! Anything negative? not really, I would have liked to have seen some more scenes with the main characters I felt they didn't get a break and three quarters of the way through I found it a bit slow and then it picked up, but no this is one of the greats.

Ah I really liked this drama, I thought it was different, I liked the ghost and the afterlife themes I thought they were interesting and in season for Halloween and they were presented in an interesting way, sometimes I feel the mix of different themes can go very wrong if not presented and introduced well. When I started watching the series there wasn't a full cast list out for it so I was pleasantly surprised to see Shin Min Ah appear, she now has an affiliation with the supernatural type roles, which I don't mind, but I hope she mixes it up for her next role, I would like to see her play different characters. The rest of the cast I loved I thought all the supporting roles were wonderful. Kang Moon Young can be incredibly scary with her eyes she played the part beautifully, and Bang Wool and Dol Soe were so cute. It was nice to see characters like the jade emperor and the king of the underworld being included in the storyline there wasn't a particular need to have them in there but it made the story more dynamic. The story wasn't that predictable in places, which kept me happy. Improvement? I found the music a bit so so, I think there was one track that I liked but the others were a bit non eventful. The story was a bit slow in places just before the end and I feel like there were several scenes that were missed out of the ending, there was several events that passed that I wanted to see, I wonder if that was a time management tactic.
Overall? If you like the supernatural, with themes of ghosts, demons, death and the afterlife in a light hearted manor, with some romance and comedy thrown in there in a historical setting, it's right up your alley. If your not sure, I recommend you watch two episodes and then decide, no drama appeals to everyone.

Firstly, I couldn't fault the cast, they were great, I wouldn't change them at all. I loved the scenes between the king and queen it was nice to see the progression and evolution of their relationship, this was done well. I didn't find anything special with the music, was it just me or did I hear something similar to the pirates of the Caribbean theme tune during some fight scenes in the beginning of the series? this kind of made me slightly annoyed. The story had elements of great promise, it was nice to see some new elements in there, I did go and research more into Korean history because of this and got a little more understanding. I think I found the series a bit full on at times, I would have liked to have seen the main characters not badgered by the villains every five seconds and have had a bit of a break, because of this at certain points watching the series it would take me a while to want to go back watching it. This is partially why I lowered the score, another reason for this was that I found it slightly predictable. I give this drama praise though for it's originality I was slightly thrown to see glow in the dark fight scenes and asked myself 'wait is this historically accurate?!' but after a while it was quite pleasant to see things in an alternative way. I loved the clothing and hairstyles on the queen, I thought they were very pretty and inspiring, I must admit I didn't like the clothing and hairstyle of the court prince but they make him look more 'slimy' then he would have been in normal attire so I think it did well to set his character, so kudos.
If you want to watch a drama with lots of content with historical themes in an alternative manor,good fight scenes, with a bit of time travel and some magic. This drama might be for you. If your fussy and want a deep unpredictable plot, watch the first five episodes and see how you go.

I must confess I was only interested in watching this drama because I've been following No Min Woo, themes of food don't really interest me, so I was pleasantly supprised when I watched the first episode and really liked it! And then later on I became addicted! What I love the most in this is the interaction between the characters, especially the main couple and there were parts that I found hillarious! The ending was fairly satisfactory and was a well rounded drama. There were a couple of parts that were left unexplained especially where No Min Woo's character was concerned, but I liked it.

Ah this is a wonderful drama, the interaction with the main characters at the beginning of the series is truly brilliant especially in the airport, when they meet for the first time, the story finished off well and I feel the acting was good, not as bad as some people have felt but I wonder if it was direction that tainted it slightly, with Asian dramas they tend to be either a comical and cheesy style, which is very common or they lean on more of a realistic and natural style. The case with this script is that it would have suited both but I think having it on the more serious side would have sent less mixed messages.
