A romantic, cozy watch
POSITIVE:
The best vibe I can describe for this drama is a romantic, cozy watch. It's perfect if you've had a long day and want to watch something to relax in the evening. It's not too emotional or too comedic, more like a mild, steady tone. The story is mainly about the love between the male leads and it has Romeo and Juliette vibes. CGI/Visuals are done well. The drama has five major plot points: ep 1-10 is academy life (magic school vibes), ep 11-17 devil realm life (married couple vibes), ep 18-25 past life (purely a historical vibe with no magic), ep 26-29 mortal/heaven realm life (mix of things) and ep 30-36 demon life (demon + heaven realms). I really liked that each plot point introduced different settings/places and storyline so there was always something new to see.
NEGATIVE:
The problem with this drama is that it didn't have "the spark". Many things happen in the drama and it has good plot twists but for some reason it all felt a bit bland. I can't truly describe it but it felt like many plot points were thrown in the drama to make it more interesting but they somehow ended up being disjointed and forced without a massive emotional impact. In conclusion the drama didn't feel it had this "wow, I'm addicted" factor.
CHARACTERS:
FL reminded me of Cinderella. A shy maid with a kind-heart that's bullied by two spoiled/mean girls. I found her likeable from beginning to end. ML is the typical reserved and shy heavenly prince. At first ML looked quite unremarkable and in the later episodes the actor truly shined when playing other characters. Especially during the past life arc (ep 18-25) I almost felt like another actor was playing him because he was that good. SML also had a strong storyline.
MUSIC:
I need to give a special attention to the OST because if you don't watch the drama, at least you have to listen to the beautiful OST which has become one of my top favourites.
ENDING:
I'd say episode 29 wrapped up really nicely and I almost feel it would have been a perfect ending if it was the last episode. But the true ending of the drama in the final episode is quite a twisty one and a little difficult to understand at first. It's not a bad ending at all though. In fact the best way I can describe it is that it has multiple endings which is not something I've seen in another drama.
