I've just finish this drama that I though it would be my first "drop off" drama. I started to watch it when I was on holidays in Korea two weeks ago, it was on Netflix and it seemed different. Although the first episode was really interesting (and "different" from other dramas), when I was on episode 3 I stopped... the pace was slow, and overall, I didn't get what the story was about.
Then, some days later, I found out the article The Myths behind "A Korean Odyssey" in MDL and after reading it I was curious to watch something more. So I tried again. And I finished today.
Story: I really can't say what it is that I liked about this drama. I think it's the strangest drama I've seen so far. And sorry, it's not Goblin. It's stranger than that one.
The story, as I said, is slow and sometimes incoherent. I didn't like the main couple very much and the seconds leads also were sometimes two much. But I don't know why, I continued watching it. There were some moments in every episode that I loved, funny or nice moments, not as much with the main couple as with the actions of the rest of the characters. Overall, I liked very much PK/Piggy and Zombie Richie. They were cute together.
As for the ending... I had already imagined that it would be something like this, so, no surprise there.
Acting: I haven't seen Lee Seung Gi before, and after this, I'm sure I'll see at least three or four more of his dramas. He's too good. I didn't like the female lead, not the actress, rather the character... even if I understand she would be kind of "special" with a childhood as hers. But her character was tremendously bland...
Music: I like it very much! I knew and liked the songs even before episode 3 and before having dropped the drama.
Rewatch: Emmmm, I don't think so. I know already everything I should know.
I liked this drama, in its own way, but I can't recommend it to everybody. You should watch it if you are looking for something different, you don't expect two much and you see it after having read about the myths I told earlier.
