a surprisingly fun watch!
I picked this as a time passing drama between shows but I did not expect to be enjoying it this much. Normally I don't go for fantasy but this show is super likeable despite my personal taste. Despite the premise I ended up laughing a few times during this and that surprised me.
THE CAST - I am absolutely in love with the leads. I've seen some dating rumors about the leads but I'm not surprised. Their chemistry was through the roof and they look so good together. This is coming from a person who decided to watch this because of JKY and LH's 1st Look Photoshoot. I've only seen Jang Ki Yong in Come and Hug Me but in this role he gets to be a bit comedic as well as strong and stoic and he pulls it off very nicely. There are times when he's serious and protective but he was also funny and gentlemanly at differing times. He was nice looking to me before but damn did he look good here!-this drama had me swooning over him in almost every scene between him and his co-star. I've heard criticisms about Lee Hyeri's acting but I could see where they're coming from, but imo her whacky facial expressions and somewhat adolescent performance for the role of Dam very nicely. She's a young person in college so making Dam young relatable was good on the writers' parts. Believe me, I had my doubts in the first episode but I like her acting choices.
Overall I think both JKY and LH brought their characters to life beautifully and you can tell they had a lot of fun filming as well as behind the scenes. The side characters are surprisingly fun to watch. The FL's best friend was great. He genuinely made me laugh a few times. He was supposed to be the clingy-loser friend to the FL but I found him really cute and endearing. The SML was extremely likable despite his school reputation and lack of development. All we really know about him is that he's a player and he has a mad crush on Dami. Hye-sun was pretty good too. Her ditziness was a little ehh sometimes but it was her relationship with Woo-Yeo that kept me interested in her character. As a side note, I much prefer Kang Ha Ma's role in Start-Up much more to this.
THE PLOT- The plot is nothing new but there are certain things that are unique. For one the whole marble thing. Ngl the sequence of events leading up to the leads meeting and living together was ridiculous and made me chuckle lol. But there's a fine line between ridiculous and stupid and this was ridiculously good. The second thing was the fact that ML didn't change upon meeting the FL but he more so opened himself up to her. Woo-Yeo has been alive for centuries but he wasn't really living. He was just going from period to period, person to person. Once he started spending time with
Overall I'm giving this drama a 9/10. Didn't expect to rate it this high but I'm really enjoying this. Definitely recommend!
