Overall a good drama to watch
Interesting and exciting at first but lost me around episode 13. Would be better if they just made it a 12-episode drama. The story and plot are great. The actors did great too. Not sure if it's just personal preference but it felt like they dragged the second half of the drama. Like they stretched it just to fit it in 16 episodes.It is still worth the watch though. The story is really interesting. I just hoped they were able to keep that vibe until the end. A fantasy, mystery, thriller, and romcom all in one drama.

THE BEST FANTASY KDRAMA OUT THERE
I will fight anyone who says otherwise... the acting, the story, the CG effects all blew me away.I love love the two main leads. This whole show was perfectly cast. Also you do not get second lead syndrome and instead you have these beautiful bonus storylines in addition to the two main leads. The supporting characters all have such wonderful stories and experience real character development instead of just being there to prop up the main lead or provide comedic relief like in so many other kdramas. UGH his brother <3 <3 I will never get over him. If you are an avid drama watcher like myself you find yourself almost predicting plot lines and character arcs. This story was unique in every way. I enjoyed every minute of it. From the beginning to the end.
To sum this drama up it was emotional, beautiful, and magical to see. This kind of show makes me so happy that I started getting into kdramas last year because I can't imagine missing out on this! I am jealous of those who get to watch it for the first time.

Ending leads to curiosity
I liked the story and the way each episode ended.Nice story ,i enjoyed watching it . Acting of each characters were good. The scene when the brothers solve their problems and got together that scene was amazing . Like this there were many scenes where we would see twist .
Only the end of last episode leads to curiosity then I came to know there is a season 2 of the story when I read the synopsis I came to know that season1 and season 2 has no connection so I disappointed. So my curiosity will remain .

Where to begin from?This is the first time I am watching a drama that has Lee Dong Wook. I never really paid much attention to him before but after finishing Tail of the Nine-Tailed, I really have started to like him. His acting was superb. His funny moments and adorable habits had me hooked to the drama from the first episode. One of the main reasons I never got bored was because of Lee Yeon. His love for the female lead was so admirable. The other reasons were, Lee Rang and his scenes towards the end. I loved his scenes with that little kid. It was really upsetting that he died, especially after he started cherishing his life with Yoo Ri, Shin Joo and the kid. Shin Joo's loyalty was touching, like I've said before, such loyal characters are very rare nowadays in dramas.
The granny and her husband were a couple never failed to make me laugh as well!!! She was a little annoying at times but these type of characters are always good in dramas. Her poor Husband ;)
Now with the things I didn't really like were the fact that Ji Ah was just always talking about either dying or her parents and her childhood. I know they are the most precious people to her but I thought that Lee Yeon always felt bad that he wasn't able to find her parents for her. I just felt that her character was very whiny towards the end (my opinion only).
Also, a villain like Imoogi never has people hating him, we always end up liking such villains. Maybe for such a big story, he wasn't the best choice. I liked him from the beginning and was hoping till the end that he would turn good and get a happy ending but he never did :(
However, I really miss this drama already and wish it had many more episodes. Loved it overall!!!!!!
Do watch it...

It’s like a mixture of live action Anime and Korean drama. Isekai feels. Really enjoyable!
The Plot is great! The beginning got me really hooked. I really enjoyed watching this series.It’s like an Anime and Korean drama mixture! Loved it!
Lee Dong Wook and Kim Bum are the best brothers with love-hate relationship.
LDW and JBA had great chemistry.
They've shown the past and present without confusing the viewers. The transition and the cinematography are all impressive.
The script, acting and everything are all great.
I am just kind of disappointed with the ending. It could have been better. I enjoyed it until the half of ep. 16. The other half of ep. 16 are just okay.
Overall, 8.5/10.

Lee Yeon
Por uma curiosidade me deparei com Lee Dong Wook neste drama.E que personagem misterioso e apaixonado.
Já assisti essa história 2 vezes e ela é top 1 quando falamos do ator que preencheu minha vida, Lee Dong Wook. Sou apaixonada por ele, mas vamos a história.
Os personagens são carismáticos e cada um tem sua personalidade e o jogo da trama se refaz e cria uma nova cena.
Sem enrolação e muita paixão por sua humana Yeon mantém em sua memória esse amor.
Dong Wook trouxe o melhor de si para esse personagem e faz jus ser um kdrama impactante: cenas de lutas bem coreografas.

Sometimes a sad ending has more beauty than a forced happy one
We just watched this drama and voted 8.5. Honestly, We loved Lee Rang's love for his brother Lee Yeon more than Ji Ah's love story. For us the real protagonist was Lee Rang.Now let's talk about the last episode ..
WE'RE SO PISSED.
We knew that Rang was going to die, but we would have preferred to see him dying during the battle, even sacrificing for Yeon.
But we don't accept the way he died, cause he didn't want to.
After a lifetime of darkness, where he wanted to die more than living that way finally, he found a place, a family.
He found happiness and was living that way also for Yeon.
Making him sacrifice that way... Was so selfish. Cause yes, he repaid Yeon for all he did for him. He gave him his life back, at the price of his.
But it was so unnecessary.
Yeon's journey was done.
It was sad, but he didn't die with regrets. While Rang died having only regrets.
Sometimes a sad ending has more beauty than a forced happy one. They forced this happy ending and Rang paid the price.

O Rang nunca foi o vilão.
Certa noite resolvi assistir algo e por algum motivo fui impulsonada e cliquei pra assistir esse título... e ainda bem que cliquei. Essa história foi surpreendente, o que me prendeu foram os elementos de fantasia e realidade que estão atrelados, simplesmente encantador. Eu gostei demais da ação que alguns episódios tinham, do tipo de te deixar sem fôlego e acho que por isso não desistir quando em alguns momentos a história foi ficando arrastada e chata. A personalidade da Ji ah ser transformada do dia pra noite (sei que teve o contexto dela perder a esfera da raposa), foi frustrante e perder uma personagem com um carisma tão grande, dói. O que doeu mesmo foi o sacrifício do Rang , ele não merecia nada daquilo, ele nunca foi o vilão e irei defendê-lo (pelo menos até asssistir a segunda temprada haha), ele, vítima de abandono pela mãe, foi criada esse ar melancôlico e diabólico, mas foi lindo demais ver ele renascendo e ivendo, realmente tendo vontade de viver, ao lado de uma familia. TE AMO RANG.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Started really good
I loved the first 4 episodes they were very promising then it started to be less of my taste.. Hated the ending ! Loved the characters(minus the ahjumma and the female lead)I really didn't like the romance ,the female lead's role really changed,I loved her character in the first episodes more,she was strong and independent then she started to be very weak and all cutesy and relying on the guy! And I hated how Lee Yeon doesn't care much about his brother,like he loves him but he cares more about the girl, he literally abandoned him for her ...OVERALL IT'S GOOD like I loved the story and the side characters a lot but hated the ending and felt bad for Lee Rang!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Jo Bo Ah's performance was particularly impressive to me
I had only seen Jo Bo Ah in Destined with You, in a very different interpretation, due to a very over the top role and a strange hair dye. In Tale of the Nine-Tailed, I saw a completely different interpretation. If I hadn't read that it was the same actress, I might have struggled to recognize her. I found it as an indication of a talented and versatile actress who can handle multiple roles with absolute authenticity. Of the two dramas, I loved Destined with You more and this one less, while in Tale of the Nine-Tailed I appreciated Jo Bo Ah moreAs for the story, what can I say, the same mechanisms were repeated over and over again during the drama, a sign of a script with an initial idea but few ideas to develop it for 16 episodes. I found particularly absurd the presence of people with the most incredible powers who continually make the same stupid mistakes, just to advance a script that might definitely be improved.

WHAT THE FOX SAY? (sorry, but I couldn't let this pass)
I have to learn when to stop with this kind of drama. Since the beginning, I had the feeling that I would cry as I did with "Goblin" and my expectations were totally right. I saw the last episode yesterday and my head still hurts because of all the cry.
As I said on first impressions, I'm not a fan of fantasy dramas, but some points catch my attention in this one and made me keep going. One of the things was Ji Ah (Jo Bo Ah). How I loved this girl and her personality! Ji Ah wasn't a common female lead at all! Her courage was impressive and the determination to find her parents and keep at Lee Yeon's side was a high point to me and make me wanna see how everything would end. Lee Yeon (Lee Dong Wook) also was a great character. I always laughed at his sarcasm and his intense protection for the people he loved. Lee Rang (Kim Bum) was a beautiful surprise, I caught myself cheering for him even when he did bad things, only because his charism was amazing. These characters moved me until the end, and of course my baby Jung Shi Yool. I LOVE THIS KID! The plot with Ki Yoo Ri (Kim Yong Ji) and Gu Shin Joo (Hwang Hee) didn't make me fall in love with them. I loved Yoo Ri's personality, but I thought their relationship kinda forced in some moments. I thought cute, I smiled, but wasn't a remarkable thing.
The story caught me many times and make me very anxious about the next episodes, but my big problem was the last episodes. I won't spoiler it here because this review is spoiler-free, but I'll let in a comment below finalized with SPOILER (if you are reading this on the page of the drama, you can search this post on my profile). Besides the last episodes, all the story is very consistent and very good writing. I think that for a Korean person that knows all the culture and legends, everything could make more sense and be more clear in some points. I noticed that sometimes I was lost with all the stories because I wasn't familiar with the legends, so I just didn't catch many details. But this wasn't important to follow the story, I thought that maybe just could give me a better experience.
I'm not sure how I'm feeling about this drama after all the process, but I never rate a drama only based on the last episodes. This definitely was a "pretty good show" walking into "amazing", so I'll put an 8,5 (★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★/2).
I will write about "Start-up" soon! I finished many dramas these days so I'm a little overloaded, but tomorrow I'll write and after that, I'll write my first impressions of "Her private life"! Many things to the next days! Follow the posts and share them!
If you wanna know my opinion about the end WITH SPOILERS, you can read the comment below. If you didn't watch it yet, save it for later!
See you soon!
XOXO, Mari.
