The cast, the OSTs and the plot was a lot amazing. Special mention to Kim Kwon for playing Seongmo - I cannot imagine anyone else playing him. He nailed his character. Jinyoung did a really good job too for his first main role. I've seen his other dramas and I'm proud of what he has achieved and his improvement.
It has the balance of romance and suspense that you're looking for.
You have to watch this drama if you want something that keeps you on your toes and something out of the ordinary and fascinating. There were even some scences that foreshadowed future events - I honestly though this was brilliant how the writer managed to do this.

This has to be one of my favorite dramas of 2017.

When I first heard about this drama, I thought this was already great. The plot and the cast were promising. Yes, this is a law drama but the fantasy element mixed with this just lifted the overall mood of the drama.
From the first up to the last episode, I felt the emotions well and I didn't feel that the story dragged. There was enough room for character development.
The music and the ambience was really great as well as the cinematography. 
It's not perfect, but it's definitely a must watch.

Honestly, this I'd the first ever horror drama i've ever watched. It definitely did not disappoint. The suspense and anticipation for every episode was high. The cinematography was really good. The music was 10/10 really suitable and it gave me chills. It really felt creepy. This is something to watch when you want adventure, suspense and the feeling of getting surprised every time. The story was executed well and the acting was really really good. It didn't feel boring at all at some point and you really have to pay attention to it and you would want to miss anything.

This drama was simply amazing. I finished this in just three days. Everything - from the lighting to the ost, the acting and the story was simply superb. The actors and actresses did their best in portraying the characters.
This drama made me realize a lot of things. Titles don't really matter and it doesn't matter what your social ranking is. You're still human whether your rich or poor and your personality is more important than the money you have. What good is it if you're not happy in life? One may be a CEO of their own company but it doesn't always mean they are happy. Grades aren't everything. It's not the end of the world if you fail. You can always keep trying.
The smallest things in life are the ones that can make a person happy.
What's great about Sky Castle is that the audience can empathize with the characters and that it discusses issues surrounding university and good grades in order to get to the top and depression that comes with pressure from wanting to get good grades in order to get to university.

Let me start off by saying that of you want lots of feels, this is the show you could watch just for the fluff and cheesy scenes again and again. As I write this review I remember how fun it was to watch it every time a new episode airs. I could feel curiosity and anticipation while waiting for new episodes.There are some scenes that are kind of a filler only. Overall everything else is great. The actors, the cinematography, the soundtrack; it will give you tingly feelings. Can I also say that Ji Wook is one of my top 5 male kdrama characters? He doesn't force anyone to do something if he/she isn't comfortable with it. (That's probably the best I can give without spoiling too much)

I didn't expect a lot but I was still disappointed. There were parts that could've been introduced in the earlier episodes but it was only revealed in the last episode. The execution was bad.

It's so dragging it makes you wonder why a particular scene was shown only as the show was about to end. You could probably understand the story by just watching recaps of it. You would ask yourself "why did this happen only now?" "this should've happened earlier!" things like that.

Do not watch this if you don't want to waste your time. I myself am surprised i was able to watch until the 14th episode. The OST was actually good.

Must Watch 2020 Drama

This drama is simply beautiful. Amazing and very well thought plot. So much life lessons. This is a breath of fresh air especially that you don't see dramas tackling mental illness.

We are humans. We feel emotions. And we're certainly not an empty can. This drama shows nobody is perfect and we all have weaknesses. Humans have flaws and that's what makes us human.

I felt the emotions of the characters and I could empathize with them at some point. One of the characteristics of a great drama is that it should be able to get the message across and make the viewers feel their emotions. This was a very wholesome and heart wrenching drama. The execution, the cast, the OST, the filming was really wonderful. The cast did a really great job in bringing the characters to life.

One of the Best 2019 Dramas

This was such a lovely drama that deals with life and relationships in general. The OST is really good. The plot and writing is really great. It was very related to 20-somethings and adults trying to find their way through life and dealing with whatever hardships it throws at us. One can learn a lot from this drama and there are so many quote worthy lines here. This is a wholesome drama overall and it can also tug at your heartstrings. I love how this drama centers around women. The pacing of his drama is also just right. It's not too slow and not too fast either. Watch this, and you will go through a rollercoaster of emotions.
