PLOT-3/5
This drama was a complete disappointment. I know it was hyped up since everyone thought it was going to be like Goblin but it is not!! Initially, it was pretty cool since they are Gods but after that, all they do is boast that they are Gods and it gets really boring. There isn't really much character development. In fact, the second couple was so much better. There was good growth that you can see.

CAST-4/5
They were pretty much okay but there was NO CHEMISTRY at all between Shin Se Kyung and Nam Joo Hyuk that the romance parts looked more like awkward parts than romantic.

ACTING-3.5/5
Krystal and Gong Myung were hella amazing! Even for Im Joo Hwan, their acting was so good that it seemed more like they were the main in this drama.

RECOMMEND-0/5
Definitely a NO NO to watch if you can't stand any of the above. TBH, I would say it was a waste of my time to watch but the second couple made things more pleasant.

This is actually the first exorcism movie that I chose to watch and to be honest the trailer made it scarier than it seems. I would say there is horror and jump scares etc but the movie overall was pretty good.

Story:
Basically it's about (Park Seo Joon) Yong Hoo has doubts and hatred of his faith. Due to his circumstances and belief, he grew up to be a martial arts fighter. An incident happens to Yong Hoo and he meets (Ahn Sung Ki) Father Ahn. Father Ahn is an exorcist and goes around performing exorcisms. Some incidents happen which bring them to (Woo Do Hwan) Ji Shin and the story deepens.

The plot might seem slow but every part was necessary. You get to see the character growth of Yong Hoo and the decisions he makes after legitimately being tempted by the devil.

The exorcism parts were quite scary but as I lack experience in watching exorcism movies, I am not a good judge.

There are scary parts, jumpscares but there are also heartwarming parts, character growth, and comedy.


Cast:
The cast was amazing. Honestly, my friends wanted to watch the movie because of Park Seo Joon's abs. (Which was worth it cause the movie was better than I had thought it would be). There are many parts that had us laughing out loud and also parts which made us hide behind our fingers.

Ahn Sung Ki was amazing as Father Ahn. The way he acted with his voice at normal volume to a soft whisper was oddly comforting. He made him sound softhearted, kind and very much like a Father/ Priest.

Woo Do Hwan always had the look as someone sinister, someone dark. He was so amazing as the Serpent Satan follower and his acting was perfect in the movie.


Music: The music/ bgm was good and it did help with the flow and pacing of the movie.


I dare say halfway through or at the end of the movie, I immediately had the thought that I would rewatch the movie and was more than eager to recommend the movie to my family and friends.

I would say that like how different Train to Busan was as a zombie movie, The Divine Fury was more than just about exorcism as you see Yong Hoo grow and change as a person. It was pretty inspiring.

Firstly the cast is so wonderful! The acting is completely daebak for everyone and you won't get the feeling of any actor's bad performance is dragging the drama down.

Secondly, the storyline/plot is pretty good but improvements can be made for sure.

Thirdly, I did not expect this to be over my expectations really. A drama I recommend everyone to watch.

Pro:
-Lots of action
-Giving what the bad guys deserves
-Little heartbreaks here and there
-Camera work done right

Con:
-Improvements can be made to storyline
-Only 30 minutes per episode

P.S If you want spoilers, look at the comments section of google it.
