I would say that it's not an overly original drama but that it doesn't feel cliched in a bad way.
Now, there are characters you don't even need to watch. I fully admit that once I got to episode 6 or so, I just started fast forwarding straight past the rich mother/father pair (who were meant to be humorous but all of their scenes were either the father cheating on his wife, or the wife screeching about something), the douchebag and mistress pair, and even sometimes the evil witch and his cronies. It's the kind of drama where seeing those scenes at triple speed and not reading every single subtitle is fine because there's nothing you can't figure out when Ton and Vana are next on screen anyway.
The special effects were about what you'd expect. I've definitely seen worse.
I would rewatch this but just Ton and Vana's scenes, just to watch them stare into each others eyes and look beautiful. Those actors had chemistry, I hope I can see both of them in more dramas to come. It helps that they're both very attractive.

It's one of the rare lakorns that you'll love all the characters in it. From Squirrel boy to the white witch
No fighting, no jealousy, no crazy ex.
The special effects not the worse but watchable .
There's a lot of comedy in it, The father who's cheating, the heir son who wants to be a singer, the other residents of the apartment, security guy and his daughter, his daughter keeps using korean and calls him Appa all the time lol
Only hint I can give you is everyone ends up being a couple, getting married and giving birth :)
The eding killed me....

Beautiful Hidden Gem
I know I am like almost five years late, but can I just say wow? What a beautiful, heart-warning lakorn this was. I’m so thankful I came across this one even after many years.This is one of the lakorns that I have a very hard time moving on. The reason for that is the lovely leads. Khun Ton and Vana really won my heart and these two will remain as one of my favorite and memorable couples of all time. Although there weren’t many lovey, dovey scenes between these two leads, I still felt their love and chemistry through their dialogues and just with them staring each other’s eyes.
To me, the main supernatural, fantasy plot was pretty decent as it was a continuous battle between good (FL who is a Nymph) vs. evil (Our villain who practices black magic/witch craft), with a final battle at the end. I loved the side stories of the other minor couples. There were many comedic moments.
What mainly kept me watching was the bond between Ton and Vana. It made my heart melt every time Ton stepped into help Vana knowing his lifespan gets shorter each time he saves her from danger. Even then, Ton did everything to make sure she was safe. Also, knowing Vana’s soul would perish if she was in love with anyone, Ton did not confess his love, until his last breath. This moment was heartbreaking, but so precious at the same time.
Going into this lakorn, I had a feeling this would be an open ending as this was a love story between a human and a nymph. Regardless, I am going to try to interpret the ending as the two leads are reborn into humans (Kids of Yogurt/Champ and Poh) and destined to be together in that life.
Last but not least, the OST was beautiful. Production and special effects were not the best, but it was watchable considering this is an older lakorn.
Overall, I genuinely enjoyed this lakorn and I hope there will be a second season someday to conclude the love story of Ton and Vana in their next life.
