This review will be short and sweet - I loved this drama so much. It was a perfect Spook-tober watch as it made supernatural elements with Shi Woo's mysterious power. But it is also the reason why I couldn't give this drama a 10/10. Nowhere in this drama did anyone discuss why he has these powers and no one seemed to care as if this is completely normal. Especially when the headmaster was trying to make make a connection between him and a childhood friend, but never did as if he has met plenty of kids with this kind of power. Besides that, this drama was a very simple and cute story about the bond of friends and coming together to fight for what they believed in.
Shi Woo and Soon Duk has the cutest relationship build up - from miscommunication to understanding to respect to finally love. Their love for one another and the way they complimented one another was simple and cute and kind of perfect for the both of them. They were both level headed and calm and simple. Not going to lie, I thought that SOon Duk and Chi Ang were very cute in the beginning as I thought that them being opposites would bring a different element into their relationship, but as Chi Ang said at the end, the parts he found attractive about her, were the things he knew he was lacking as a person. That he was attracted to those qualities because he wish he had them. Chi Ang was very hot tempered which didn't watch Soon Duk whatsoever, and in this whole drama he was in this almost limbo trying to figure out who was good and who was evil and what side would give him what he wanted. Don't get me wrong, he was one of the good guys in this drama, but he was def one of the most evil good guys. He seemed to go back and forth between sides which confused me as a viewer. Plus, I get it, we want everyone to have a happily ever after, but he was so infatuated with Soon Duk the whole series, and then we get a 7 year time jump, the last 10 minutes of the series and we see Chi Ang and Sun Ah in a serious relationship. It seemed almost forced to me. Yes, they both deserve to be happy and I do think they were similar in a way that it would make sense, but really? Throughout the series, the only relationship besides a friendship that we saw was a mentor relationship. Their training montage did not seem as romantic as the one Shi Woo and Soon Duk had.
Other than that, this drama did seem a little predictable where I figured out who everyone was and what happened within the first few eps. There also seemed to be a lot of filler even though the drama was already short as it is. I feel like they could have added more story, but less filler.
