Things I loved:
1. The romance is the story. Thus, this is a romance. My favorite.
2. Sometimes, if the romance is the story, the plot and the world building feel a tad lacking. Not this time. The plot (twists and turns, etc.) were PERFECTION, which made the romance story so much better.
3. Okay, the chemistry between the ML and FL. Holy cow. The chemistry. 1000x this chemistry. I was feeling the chest aches from episode 3 onward (my favorite).
4. The happy times were so cute and satisfying. Even though I enjoy the angst, it has to make sense; it always did, and periods of sadness were followed by satisfying periods of just the most adorable, lovely interactions. <3 LOVE <3
5. The characters were flawed and how great is that?? No one was perfect, everyone had issues, they were all doing their best. Based in a fantasy world, their characters and motivations felt realistic and relatable.
6. The battle scenes and actions scenes were so well done. I actually watched them (I usually don't)
7. Artistic direction!!!!!!!! SO GOOD!!! So many shots felt like a painting. The artistic direction enhanced the story and I love that for us.
8. She's a badass.
9. He's also a badass.
10. They save each other multiple times.
11. The kiss scenes looked like they were actually kissing, not like weird fish smashing lips that we sometimes get with C and K dramas.
12. No overuse of dramatic staring contests.
Things I didn't love:
1. That it ended. It should've continued forever. *CRIES IN CDRAMA*
