Mirror of the Witch Episode 8 Reacţii

I love that finally Hong Joo goals are some what revealed as well. Not to mention the beg question that is now looming over me! I love a good mystery.
Not to mention how shocked, and freaked out, I was that the now Queen Dowager would ever think about bringing Hong Joo back. Bigger shock was how swiftly she tossed the King under the bus. Boom. Queen Dowager is no innocent. She acts all shocked and scandalize but she goes with the evil train if it roles her way.
Anywho, I'm really happy with the change of pace for the show. All of my favorite characters got plenty of time. I adored the Gisaeng scene with Poong Yeon, Poong Yeon's apprentice, and Hue Jun!

*If you are not watching the show, I think now would be the best time to stop reading this review*.
If I am to evaluate the first half of the drama, I'd say that not only the Black Witch is the main character, but also she's the energetic force from which the events of the story are derived. I know that she's also the grand villain, but she's not the worst character to me. That position is preserved for Stupid Master Taoist Choi Hyeon Soo. There are no words to describe my dislike towards him. It's because he's the one who supposedly stands on the good side. He is also the one with the greater knowledge about Hong Joo, her witchcraft, and the whole situation, yet he keeps all that to himself. When I think that he raised the poor princess without once telling her the truth about herself I am enraged. Isn't it telling that the one person who was honest with her after all these years is the Witch? Which brings us back to Yeon Hui, the most underdeveloped character of them all. When we met her in episode 2 she had inklings of a character. All of which were pushed back after the Apocalypse happened. You could've literally replaced her with a cactus and nothing would've changed. I'm so disappointed on this front, and I hope that the show will redeem itself in its second half. How is the princess supposed to grow when she's literally stuck in her temple? Then we move to Joon, oh boy! Is there a limit to the tragedies he had to go through? And, why did he reveal himself to his older brother?? *stupidest move ever* Although YSY does wonders to bring him to life, but there isn't much you can do when all the character does is deal with woes.
In short: The first half was very interesting for the royal affairs/witch and rather dull for the OTP and their woes.. Now, show, you just opened a door to change that. No more confinement, no more submission to misfortunes, and hopefully no more staying in the dark for the OTP. Now is the time for them to reclaim their positions and become the heroes of their story!
