A wonderful story with a roller coaster road
I was already interested in watching this series when I saw the trailer on Netflix. It reminded me a little bit of Hotel Del Luna and I was between being interested and also kind of putting this off for a moment. Well, the theme is maybe a little bit similar, about ghost, grudge, being punished because of the past deeds. However, this drama is completely different from Hotel Del Luna, this drama is even better than HDL. This one has gone up to the top of my favs.
First let's talk about the casts. All the casts are perfects. Hwang jeung eum as Weol Ju is a perfect match. She is really good at acting over the top, as her past drama Kill Me Heal Me, which really perfect. She truly brings the character alive with her amazing act. And she didn't care to go all over with weird gestures that always crack me up. Then we have Seung Jae as Kang Bae. I know Seung Jae has a talent for acting since watching him in Goblin. He really good at bringing some comedic relief, but he is also good at bringing emotion. When he cried it feels like he was truly in pained and you feel heartbroken for him too.
I love the fact that this drama is not too long just to make it long which I always found in other k-drama. I find 12 eps is perfect for the whole show. There is no such thing as fillers where the couple breaks off or some other stupid thing that makes you feel you wasted some hours for that filler eps. The story is well written. Everything is good paced except for the last ep, but it not that bad if you compare with other k -drama. It's still quite satisfying in a way too.
Compare to Hotel Del Luna, I think this drama is even better. I love both dramas, but I have to admit, this drama has a better pace and story. Hotel Del Luna has too many disturbing BGM without caring about the moment of the scene. The songs are good but they are too many and sometimes destroy the mood of the scene. Then also too much effect and the side character, although loveable, lack some justifiable scenes where you can get to know more about their backstories. It also has a lot of filler eps that make you wonder why they put this in and so on. Hotel Del Luna was entertaining, but it was not able to give me a rollercoaster ride of emotion. Whereas, MPB is able to give me that. I cry, laugh like crazy and deeply immersed in the story. I think I might rewatch this show again.
