Another drama by the famous Hong Sisters. The sisters are famous for making fantasy drama and you can see their style has grown from their previous drama like Hwayugi and Master Sun. So far I think this is my fav from all their previous work I have seen.

The first episode is just so powerful. The introduction of the characters and the set where IU as Mang Weol shows up with a bang. It has already hooked me up. IU is really great and has become a very powerful actress. Her way of speaking as well as her body language is on the point. I cannot think that there will be another actress that can play the role as well as her.

In the beginning, I feel no chemistry between the lead but slowly by each episode, you can feel the chemistry is building as well as the romance between them starting to grow as well.

There are couples episode that you might feel like filler but each story indirectly carries a subtle message. Like the story about the dead bride is like a premonition about what end we will get from Man Weol and Chang Sung.

The side characters are loveable. The side couple is so sweet and even sweeter than the main couple. I hear the one who plays Ji Hyun Joong is actually a new actor. But he acts really well and kind of able to ignite me, as audience to sympathize deeply with what his characters feel. I feel like wanting to stan him for his next projects.

The backlash about this drama is probably that some episode is made like in a rush. I hear that the production team spend so much money on the first couple episode. I feel some episode is made a little bit in lower quality, another thing is way too many soundtrack song is used. I get that it serves to promote the song. But I feel like the song kind of sometimes destroy the ambiance of the drama. While the songs are good, I think it better to use it moderately and use an instrumental BGM instead. And a lot of product placement as well in the drama that is very obvious.

Overall I enjoy the ride. This drama raises my emotion when I don't expect it and keep going like a storm. The ending is justifiable and for the first time, I feel like 16 eps is not enough for K drama. I feel in my heart that I don't want to part with this drama yet.

Endpoint, this drama might not be a cup of tea for everybody but it has a special place for me. If you like Goblin and Hwayugi, you should give this drama a try. But if these are not your kind of drama, just move on.

This show is not only about eating delicious food, but they also show the cooking process of the delicious dishes from famous restaurant. I love Korean food and I also love cooking. I learn a lot about Korean food and cooking through this show. It is also exciting to watch because the show is quite entertaining, and Mr. Baek is also really good at explaining things and make things looks really delicious. Whenever you see him eats, you cannot help to drop your jaw at the same time. They change the setting a couple of times, but it not a problem for me because it does keep the show interesting.
