It's so interesting that even my family liked!!!
My mother and sister hate kdramas but they loved this one!A story about a God getting to know the human world, I find this idea very funny and original!
I think this story it's really exciting, the romance between a God and a human girl, how cute! The romance is sweet and lovely and the little bit of comedy in it makes it even more interesting to watch.
The scenarios and the effects are extraordinary , they made me deeply immersed in the story.
In my opinion the actors are amazing, handsome and pretty funny, they were well chosen.
In some parts of the drama it gets tiring to watch bu,t after that it gets better, and they clearly know how to make suspense in the end of each episode!
I liked the music in this drama, it's calm and sweet, it fits in this genre of series. And some of the songs got stuck in my head.
I liked the ending, but i think it could be a little different, but it wasn't bad.
I would recommend this drama for people who have a lot of free time since it's a little long and to people who like sweet romances with a bit of comedy.
I wouldn't rewatch this drama again because I feel like it would get boring once i watch it again.

It was an adaptation of a manhwa that iIenjoyed reading.. and that was basically the only reason I was making myself watch the episodes. It started off well enough, but the changed plot from the manhwa I foubd to be uninterestinf, the pace slow-moving and the characters unlikable. The cinematics are gorgeous. Too bad there wasn't anything else I could like about it.
There were other things I want to watch and it couldn't hold my interest enough to finish it.

I don't think it's worth your watch time
Well to be fair I liked the story somehow. Watergod loses his power at the earth and tries to get them back. But i have the feeling it went out too long. Also, I really *really* didn't like the female lead. Her acting was tolerated at most. She was so stiff, even I could've done better. Even st the crying scenes. At her newest drama "a historian rookie" it seemed like she has improved but it still wasn't the best. I've dropped it after some episodes because it became slowly boring for me. I didn't read the manhwa but its seem like the people who did, didn't like the show either and I think this says it allVond je deze recentie nuttig?
Perfectly decent drama
This has been on my list for a while and as I recently saw comments talking about how bad it was, this pushed me to watch it! My takeaway is that though it wasn't a mind-blowing drama, I really don't think it's worth the heavy criticisms. I'm particularly surprised to see such dislike for Shin Se-kyung - I thought her acting was perfectly good, I enjoyed her character and I've seen far worse actresses get far less critique. Nam Joo-hyuk as Ha-baek gave a subtle performance, perhaps a touch too impassive at parts, but I thought it suited the role - I was reminded of the phrase "still waters run deep." I thought the second lead was great, often the second lead can feel like a pointless filler character but his background and struggles moved me. Anyway, I found this to be an enjoyable watch and it left me feeling happy and content. Some of these harsh comments make me wonder if we watched the same thing!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

The story was amazing with different approach. It combined fantasy romance and comedy... The comedy is 10 starts here.
The acting was super, every character was on point, u will feel that u r drawn to everyone of them even to the supporting actors. That is who good they were.
The OST was catchy, I really lived it it calming
The visuals, just what can I say, I really loved Habeak in The Relam Of God's That Outfit That Hair That Gaze, they did a wonderful job..
Overall the story was 10 out of 10 for me, I hope I gave it a try sooner, I really would recommend it it for all

The osts weren't that bad, but definitely not something memorable. I had to force myself to complete it and see how it ends. But then the ending too was loosely wrapped up and wasn't any better than the rest of the show.
As a lead actress, Shin se kyung was a bad choice and Nam Joo hyuk's casting was a complete waste of potential. There is almost no chemistry between the leads and somehow I liked the second couple more than the main one.
While Nam JooHyuk and Shin se kyung was a huge disappointment, Crystal and Gong Myung was surprisingly better than the entire show. And even though I like Nam Joo Hyuk, his presence didn't make the drama any better :'(

Good but could be better
the reason I watched this drama is bc im a fan of nam joo hyuk and shin se kyung, so seeing them work on a project together was exciting. bc of this, my opinion of the drama may be slightly biased (i also didn't read the original story) so take my review with a grain of saltfor acting, i think all the actors were great, including the side characters, esp the antagonist, and comedic relief was provided. however, they definitely could've embodied the characters a little better bc sometimes they're a bit more awkward than i would expect from a god. I've seen a lot of people say the chemistry between the couple wasn't good or there was no spark, but i personally think they worked together really well.
the fault is in the character development which i guess the main characters had some arch, mainly haebak. what i expected was a story more focused on the whole god part but in the end it's just a romance with plotholes with some confusing parts about who's a god and who's not. there was definitely a lot of potential for shin hoo ye's character arch but music wise i really love the ost for this drama esp glass bridge, that ones a masterpiece
overall, i would go back to watch it (i have tried many times actually) i just never finish it once i start rewatching it i recommend it if you like romcoms but don't hold expectations to the fantasy part of the drama

I started watching it after finishing the King Eternal, since I finished it before my given time (I give myself a week after the shows finishes airing to finish it, or half a week if the show is not airing (that is fully available). So I started watching this, and I was very judgmental of it while watching it because of the reviews I read.
Honestly, from my experience and this is my personal opinion, there are no plot holes. There are things that are left unanswered until the end but they are tied up nicely. Everything made sense, everything. I did not read the manhwa or plan to read it so I had no previous knowledge. I don't mean to come off as rude in any way, but the bad reviews really make it seem like a bad kdrama when is really not.
If you simple, straight to the point, happy ending kdramas than I recommend you to watch this, you'll go through the first 6 episodes like is fresh bred, very quickly.

The story was barebones and empty. The plot was basically Habaek waiting for a fellow Deity to show up so he could return to the Godly World and claim his birthright as King. That's really it as far as the actual plot is concerned. So it's not faithful to the source material, of which I know nothing of, rather it's a backdrop to Habaek and Yoon So Ah, a servant to the gods via descendent lineage, and their blossoming relationship. Thankfully, I found it compelling to watch and thought they worked off each other well. Habaek is a god but he is without his powers and has to rely on a depressed and cynical Therapist for even the simplest of tasks despite Habaek’s intellect - driving, working part time jobs, cooking, etc. Habaek is arrogant - a main criticism of the character - but he is a God. A King. Of course he is arrogant, and he should be, however he does learn how to be humble towards others. Habaek learns the importance of kinship. That's a good message and a good story arc for such a narcissist. Naturally, the relationship between our two main leads has a bumpy ride to go on thanks to our other three Gods (Or 2 Gods and one Demigod, to be specific), Mu Ra, Bi Ryum and Shin Hoo Ye. Those three were the stronger characters in terms of depth and were worth watching as well. To get on the negatives of the series, I'll talk about the last episode. I simply didn't buy it unfortunately. Quite simple. Yes, this is a world that contains Deities, but it felt a little forced and clichéd, although I do think that was more on the rushed pacing of the final episode rather than the actual conclusion which was sweet.
The acting gets a lot of flack, too. I can see why. Perhaps Shin Se Kyung was a tame and relied on tears a bit too much but I thought she did a fine job at portraying a cynical, materialistic character and made her likeable and relatable. She and Nam Joo Hyuk worked well as our leading couple. Nam Joo Hyuk played his character really well also. He wasn't emotionally sharp but the subtle moments were delivered with conviction. Krystal and Im Joo Hwan were really good throughout the show, in particular. Solid acting from all the important actors, in my opinion.
So yes. This was a fine drama. I said it.

This is just my personal opinion. Not everyone has to agree with this :)
I will keep this short. I don't know why people didn't like the plot or the acting. For me, the plot was interesting and simple, it was nowhere near boring. This was not a complicated drama. It had everything- romance, comedy, fantasy, sadness, and friendship. It is a light drama with a good story.This was my first time watching all the actors in this drama and I loved them! Everyone acted out their role perfectly. I especially loved, absolutely loved Shin Hu-ye (Lim Ju-Hwan) in this drama. His role and his acting were amazing.
I would suggest everyone to give it a try at least once. Everyone has their own preferences, but I think you might enjoy it!
