Another completely biased review from me to you. Lots of spoilery stuff below.
First of all, this is a silly series and should not be taken seriously. If you want to watch something for any other purpose but total empty-brained entertainment then this isn't for you. This series does not take itself seriously at all, pokes fun at different tropes, breaks the fourth wall, is cheesy as hell, and so much fun!
Wang Hao Xuan as the ML was fantastic! He really played the part beautifully and proved that short length series can have wonderful acting too. The perfect innocent, slightly dumb ML.
I don't know Tu Zhi Ying at all but she was hysterically funny as the FL! She does physical comedy so well and just throws herself into the character. I love the way she always breaks the fourth wall! And the fact that she is obviously female but because she wears a males outfit that all think she's a guy? The gives us some fun scenes with the ML being so worried because he's carrying her around and of course his brain starts short circuiting lol
Yan Zi Xian is one of my personal favorites. I've seen him in a lot of short length series. He has played a wide variety of roles but never I haven't seen something like this before. The audio and visual gags for him were off the chart funny! The creaking rope sound whenever he was 'gliding' around people! When he walks around with his umbrella open and flower petals fall. When he constantly gets way too close and invades the senior apprentices personal space. Constantly! This guy needs a vacation, cause it looks like he has had 7 series released this year so far. Wow! And of course he is in my favorite The Spirealm
Just some thoughts while watching:
The senior apprentice was trying to find who saved him by carrying around a frog hairband and it was just such a perfect way to start this series.
Flying through the sky on a giant paper bird (?) and sword are so badly done it's laughable. But in a good way!
The whale flying through the sky or whatever it is at Yoon Clan was just a cheeky bit of fun that you might not notice but lol
The big bad demon female's name is Maggie? Really? LOL
And it ends with a game show? WTF, this is awesome!
OMG, dance off between demon Maggie and the other chick? And a really bad dance off too. Like really really bad!
Rock paper scissors? I especially liked the blood spitting when he lost.
The demon gang's music video performance!
The good guys team music performance was actually not bad.
That ending?!?
It looks like the cast must have had fun doing this. I wish I could find some behind the scenes!
There is so much to love about this series. I wish there was a season 2.
