If you're looking for something pointless tbh.
Let me start by saying I am not a professional critic or anything I'm just a random girl saying what's on my mind so do with that what you will.Now let's begin.
How the whole show gonna be them falling in love(and obviously side conflicts) but scared because of the limited time they have together before he has to leave ONLY FOR THE PROBLEM TO BE RESOLVED IN THE LAST 2 MINUTES OF THE SHOW. They were really crying and throwing up about being separated just for that one guy to come and be like, "Oh Nah never mind it's fine you can stay" Like dude what was the point. WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT????? The only reason I kept watching was for the side character love story I stan them.
Each to their own though I suppose, watch it or don't.

This got me out of a drama watching slump. It wasn't perfect but I'm just gonna list my initial thoughts after finishing it and then come back and edit it later.
Warning it's just a jumble of my thoughts right now:
Did not like the end. Thought it fell short!
I wish we had seen more of the Gods world, and like their powers. We saw a small glimpse but not enough.
I loved the FL and ML
I know people hated on the FL and sometimes I get she was far from perfect (e.g. she was terrible to those orphans her dad looked after when she was younger, and was a bad friend to that nurse guy who worked for her), but she was realistic and she did show character development. I think they portrayed their characters really well. They do grow on you as the drama goes on. But I do get why some people think the ML should have maybe been played by an older actor. He didn't really give off powerful mythical God vibes right? And I think part of that may be because we didn't really get to see much of his power that was spoken about so much. And he looks young. But I loved his acting still! I've seen some really bad male actors who have the visuals but don't have the acting talent, but not this guy, you could really see the emotions in his eyes! I loved seeing their connection grow. And I loved how much they both grew as the drama went on, and like what he was willing to sacrifice for her at the end, that was beautiful and sad.
I actually enjoyed the plot, I mean it was lacking a bit but I do have to add I love this genre, and I've read loads of books and seen dramas of a similar nature. So for me, I really enjoyed it even though the ending fell short, along with a few other moments.
I hated Mura! She was so annoying!
At first I hated Biryeom too but he really grew on me, especially as time went on, and we realised his anger was justified in a sense because his close friend died and he had only gone to do the ML a favour probably also related to his love of Mura and her love of Habaek, but then it also wasn't because the guy who killed him was a child at the time, and had been locked up and thought he was protecting his only "friend". And I loved how much he loved Mura, but I hate how he didn't call her out on her serious character flaws. I loved her loyalty to Habaek and was rooting for her a bit, but then she just became petty and selfish, and she was so happy to see FL and ML relationship have problems, she became kind of toxic. I do get how she didn't want him to get hurt again and was jealous because she loved him, but he never led her on, and FL proved how she wasn't like Nakbin and she was still horrible to her. Not to mention Biryeom loved her and treated her way better than Habaek did, and was there for her so long and I don't get how she just didn't see it.

Terrible plot line, it starts off good but falls through in the end. There are a bunch of plot holes that are just ignored. honestly this show just gets more boring as you watch so I had to drop it.
Acting/Cast:
I know the actors are good actors just the way they were written was terrible. There is no character development for any of the characters except Sin Hoo Ye
Music:
It is only rated like that becasue the show was terrible , but korean OSTs are always great
Overall:
Don't watch this show

[Spoiler leve de pouca influência].Sou apaixonada pela série em manhwa, Habaek, e o que aconselho é que esse drama seja assistido numa TOTAL neutralidade, sem quaisquer expectativas com relação ao original. É um spin off apenas.
Apesar disso, acho uma pena IMENSA não terem aproveitado de recursos que tinham em mãos através de uma trama tão linda que é o real Habaek. Honestamente, não achei que a escolha dos atores foi ruim, mas confesso que esperei mais das atuações, especialmente do mocinho. Falam muito da atriz protagonista, mas eu achei a atuação DELE bem mais árdua. Vamos lembrar que o Deus da Água não é robótico/travado, mas apenas rebelde/mimado e muito sedutor. Ele tem seu lado imaturo, mas é também imponente (contudo, sem parecer um cara travado e pateticamente formal).
Enfim, nem vou falar da So Ah porque as duas personagens (quadrinho e dorama) estão totalmente diferentes. Nem sei como compará-las. Porém, prefiro algo como isso do que uma tentativa horrível de ficar parecido com o original.
Mas o principal ponto de crítica é que, definitivamente, não acho nenhuma justificativa plausível pra terem ambientado este drama na nossa época atual. Queriam fazer algo diferente, talvez? Porque poderia ser tranquilamente um drama ambientado em algum período histórico qualquer, e ficaria bem mais interessante, a menos que um enredo ambientado na atualidade fosse MUITO BOM. Como foi fraco, a ambientação perde o sentido. Teria mais encanto e fantasia se fosse numa distopia ou período histórico.
E temos o Deus da Água como um completo inútil o drama todo. Porque, sério, isso dele perder os poderes foi bem ridículo. A gente fica na ansiedade pra ver um protagonista poderoso, arrasando, fazendo as artes e humilhando geral, pra isso só acontecer no fim do drama? Decepcionante. Ele podia muito bem ter os poderes normais, e no final ganhar uma soma extra deles, sei lá. Apesar de meio clichê, isso seria mais interessante do que vimos.
Porém, como não vou falar só dos pontos fracos, eu posso dizer que gostei muito da química entre o casal protagonista, eles combinam MUITO, achei lindos. Os casais secundários eu também gostei muito, especialmente Bi Ryun e a Moo Ra, eles foram bem shippáveis desde as primeiras aparições.
Outro ponto bacana são os ganchos. Fazia muito tempo que eu não via um drama com ganchos tão bem bolados. Sério, foram vários os capítulos que acabaram numa parte onde me vi obrigada a dar play no próximo. Bom, então se o drama foi fraco, ao menos ele magicamente é capaz de nos prender com ganchos ótimos. E de gancho em gancho, pausas pra pegar algo pra comer ou fuçar o celular, etc... Você consegue terminar de ver o drama sem tanto sofrimento.
Bom, é isso. Acho que ainda terei esperanças de que façam uma adaptação realmente de digna de Habaek um dia. Podia se ao estilo dos dramas épicos chineses, né? Ficaria lindo! Oremos.

A missed oppurtunity
It has some promise but failed to live up to it. The ML has no real difficulty in life. His trial is fairly simple and mostly resolved itself by others and yet he gets the girl. A "hero" that you can't root for because it's unsympathetic. On the other hand, the demigod character is a good person, with actual pain and issue to overcome and mysterious past. If he were the lead instead, it would have made more sense. Pacing is pretty slow and story doesn't actually warrant 16 episodes. Could be compress into 9 or 10 episodes.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

First I have read the manhwa, just not all of it. It did not effect the viewing. What effected me the most would be past dramas of people from another world coming to the modern day. This one is just not as good as those. I had a really hard time watching Yoon So Ah. Nothing about the actress but I just hate the role. I found her over acting taking everything away from the show. Its fine in the middle but the start and the end is just bad. I had I hard time understanding her actions.
I had a hard time with him coming back- We all know it is going to hurt them more as he has to go back. I just did not feel their love at all until the last few ep. I needed to see more of them loving each other first and more of him in his world without her.
The plot would be good but they added horrible ideas to fluff it up. Weird aggressive kiss to give "grace" or something- i don't see the point as nothing horrible happend to him so why give it so hard lol The part with her dad- we all know how that is going to end. So why put it like that lol
Product placement was horrible- so distracting.
Also- I loved his first look with that hair and then after that I missed it, It went so well with his vib and they throw it away. Personaly I think they used his body to try to get viewers- They show all of it right away...and then the bath bits... AND then she starts fantasizing about his sweaty shirt. Tell me girls if you'v seen his whole body why would him in a shirt be special now lol I would only recommend this for someone that needs a body show LOL

The little turns in the plot gave a lot of time for characters to interact and I liked the way the main ones especially were portrayed - they felt realistic and flawed and each had their aims to realise; the acting was also on point. The comedy showed mostly in the first episodes felt like not done on purpose - the comedy resulted in editing and the way the scenes were filmed. Actually, throughout the whole drama I admired the way the camera was playing with angles, they were creative and impressing.
I must say the drama was nice to watch - the cinematography was fun and the gods ensemble were dressed in stunning clothes. It definitely wasn't a plot-focused drama, but I enjoyed watching it and I would recommend it as a form of relaxation.

I've read many negative comments and reviews about the acting of the heroine and I totally disagree. She was amazing and her acting was unbelievably realistic! About the male lead I am going to say two words: pure perfection! The rest were also amazing in acting!
The only thing that caused this drama low rates was the plot, because it didn't help the characters to amaze you
But I recommend it! You won't be excited about the plot but the couple is really cute and fitting! They deserve to be watched! They acted perfectly! It was really touching!
All the characters are really attractive combined with amazing acting skills!

This was a drama with a good casting, though poorly directed cuz chemistry with the leads was just OK. But I did like the music (the only thing worth anything). I recommend this to anyone who doesn't care for story-building and character development, and only watch for the romance then I guess, up to you. Though really, if you're only after romance, plenty of other romance drama with better stories.
Overall - 2 stars for the cast and music. I had such hopes for this drama when it was first advertised but the writing was too horrible for me to give it any other rating.
Rewatch - NO.

Great blending - height and facial features match them well. A must see TV series. Rewatch value is very high.It's one of my fave KDramas. And I am endorsing this to all those who love KDramas.
I happened to like stories with a sense of mystery and love. And love that defies all sorts of roadblocks regardless.
This story will make you realise to believe in love and in your self. Self worth is everything. Believe in your self and listen to your heart. Those messages are but part of this story.
Plus all is fair in love.
