QUITE AVERAGE UNFORTUNATELY

I am going to keep this short and to the point.

If you're searching for a good fantasy drama with good acting, good pacing and a good plot then look no further into this review and let me save you some time...don't choose this drama. It's simply not worth it. You do not want to spend an average of 3 hours every weekend watching this drama. Trust me on this.

****FINAL UPDATE****
I finally finished this drama and I'm adamant in sticking with my initial opinion. This drama is simply not it. From the plot-holes to the bad scripts to subpar acting (from the main male lead). It has done nothing but tested my patience till the end. The story was nothing but drag after drag. Every scene that was supposed to be emotional was just emotionally traumatising. The ending was nothing special.

Furthermore, there are some issues I would like to address:

1. The villian was building up to be a great character but the backstory did not do him justice. There was no logical explanation for his obsession with main leads and there was no good explanation for the "dark hole" he had.

2. If the main lead can reincarnate, so can the villian. The ending did not make any sense. He had no soul.

3. The action scenes were simply not it. It was like watching a parody version of Vampire Sucks (which FYI was a parody of Twilight). The scenes looked awkward and forceful in an unpleasant way. You would think that immortal monsters with long black perfectly filed nails that can move at superhuman speed and have superhuman strength would put up a better fight right?

4. The ending was just a loosely-strung together montage of scenes that had little to no clarity and gave me the impression that everyone was just happy to be done with the drama. Again, little to no effort.

The only thing I acknowledge is Kwon Na-ra supreme acting. She did an amazing job imo. (her character again is quite weak but she did her best ig)

****OLD REVIEW****

Still hesitant on whether to take this drama up or not? Understandable.
Let me list down the things that simply did not sit well with me at all.
Make your decision after, if that is what you want.
Here we go:

Story
Quite a high rating you might think. Why am I criticizing it so harshly you ask?
The only good thing about the whole drama is the story. Why have I stuck around till ep 12? Because of the story. It has been 12 eps yet they have managed to hide a whole 1000years and that is why I'm still here.
Good strategy on their part I agree. However the downsides are large.

What's wrong with a little mystery? Nothing.
Nothing when you know how to keep it alive.
You have to know how to give enough without giving it all away. IMO this drama is stretching the mystery past a little too thin. It's starting to become irritating. If it weren't for the past story I don't think this drama would have anything. The present storyline is repetitive, boring and utterly tedious and cringe to get through.

Acting
Oh my God just take some workshops or something lee jin wook. His acting makes me feel nothing at all. Wait can I even call that acting? He looks like me when I zone out in class. Does he just forget to move his facial muscles when the cameras are rolling or??? bro you got to let something out at least man.
AND WHERE IS THE CHEMISTRY? I have more chemistry with math and believe me, I absolutely hate the subject. Maybe that's the secret??? hmmm

Y'all the only reason I'm still here is LEE JOON. My man showing his skills and playing his character like a pro. The only person I'm loving is this man right here who has my heart. He has done so well to flesh out his character.
Kwon Nara is okay. She hasn't really made a lasting impression but there is still time to change that so lets see. With the right script I believe she could do so much better.

Music
Yes. music I like.
Not so noteworthy but okay.

Would I re-watch it again? I'm telling y'all once the huge mystery is revealed I am never ever coming back cuz nothing got me staying longer than I want to.

Overall
Skip it if you can. Starting is quite weak and imo the story ain't that strong. There is zero chemistry between the cast and nothing special.
