I Liked: 1) The funny parts, such as game day in the Afterlife and Manager Gwi talking to the chicken. I think Korean dramas often shine when it comes to comedy. 2) The actor Choi Won Young. He’s such a versatile actor, funny in one drama and sinister in another. 3) The little vignettes of people and how they were helped by the Mystic Pop-up Bar characters.

I was not crazy about the following: 1) It was difficult to connect the present-day characters emotionally with their characters 500 years ago. It’s possible for one’s personality to change a lot over the years, particularly over the course of 500 (!) years, but because the characters seemed like completely different people, the past felt detached and less like a 500-year tragedy. 2)The ending. I am sometimes disappointed with Korean drama endings due to many writers' penchant for ending dramas happily, regardless of logic or consistency. I don’t have a problem with happy endings per se but too often the ending feels tacked on and added just for the sake of a happy ending. I felt that way here.
