Finishing this is a struggle!

Have to finish this drama! Nearly there! But it's such a struggle. Man! They said the writers were changed after episode 12 I think...but the drama was going down hill from a few episodes before that!

This is SUCH a drag! Why drag this out over so many episodes? I'm beyond caring at this point but I need to finish because I just need to complete it.

Why change the main antagonist so many times? The first one was it and so ideal. They could've developed on his story. Like one other reviewer said, I felt like his was more intriguing actually and I was rooting for him. I even forgot his was supposedly evil.

I'm not sure what else to say. I wish there was more demon-hunting and fighting. There was so much going on that the show's premise was an afterthought.

Then they bring in some other dude in the 15th episode to what? Sigh....I'm so annoyed and over it at this point. All of the counters had a backstory that was so poorly executed in showing this to the audience.

Umm...watch it for yourself. I was interested in this because I like the whole gang of superheroes defeating evil storyline. I also like a good underdog plot...but this, this misses the mark completely.

Amazing Rumour Amazing Drama

This is the first time for me to watch an ongoing drama. I don't like waiting but this drama is worth the wait!

The actors, plot, action scenes, even the tearful scenes are all on point. Sejeong and Bonggyu shows impeccable acting skills. The actors are somehow underrated. THEY DESERVE MORE RECOGNITION FOR THE GOD SAKE.

Hana's past revelation scene is the most tear-jerker one for me. I can't help but crying a lot.

And MY GOSH, the character development is also my favourite. HOW COME 60 MINUTES FEELS LIKE 15 MINUTES? I am not gonna lie. It DOES feel so. Please, give it a shot.

The positive. The team has a nice bond between them and it has a fun vibe. Got a few laughs out of it.

Started the series in the mood for a bit of the supernatural but this didn't quite cut it unfortunately. Reminds me of anime live actions where it tries to but fails to capture its essence. That's in my personal opinion of course, since taking an imaginary world of endless possibilities and trying to bring it into the "real world" is a daunting task.

I think they tried so hard to incorporate a little of everything that no one bothered to actually sit through it to consider whether any of it made sense. It's like let's just make it look cool and hope no one notices. There are times when things can and should be overlooked but if even the actions scenes felt mundane, it accentuates everything else that much more.

- A high school kid (as usual) has become the team's main hope to defeat demons and despite having a zero fighting background, he ramps up almost immediately (of course). How did the supernatural spirit survive without him all this time?
- The detective who has amnesia knew enough facts about his prior life but apparently spent the last seven years not caring to look into it? He knew he was a detective and at which station but again, never even met the female detective who signed off on his suicide case? Nope, didn't get emotional or care until he met the high school kid who reminded him of a business card he had in his pocket.
- Ignoring the corny theme of spirits choosing human grim reapers and living in a white room, the grim reapers only exorcise demons but only the ones who commit violent murders? Who takes care of other demonic predators then?
- Having been given instant superhuman strength, what was the point in dramatizing the detective doing calisthenics on the bars? It would be impressive for a normal human but completely pointless for him otherwise? And worse, it hints that the high school kid who was handicapped for years and never worked on his physique is actually the stronger one in strength?

Only being four episodes in, the reason for dropping it isn't even about the inconsistencies because it could have just been categorized as entertaining. However, the flow was just all over the place. You couldn't really tell if you should find the serious moments amusing or if it was meant to be taken seriously. Then the obvious scenes that were meant to be serious transitioned with poor timing or just didn't make sense. If they focused more on the fighting demons aspect instead of trying to incorporate multiple genres right off the bat, I might have made it through more episodes.

I went to watch this drama blindly, and I really think it had the potential to be something great, but the cliché superpower troupe really killed it for me. The main lead's leg magically healed and he magically began stronger (with some training) in one episode, so I just couldn't connect with him. I was seeing him as an underdog, and rooting for him as an underdog, but they molded him out to be a perfect hero, making his previous character that had much more depth diminish in one blow.

The storyline was fine, I'm not the biggest fan of action so those scenes were snoozers, and the mystery aspect of the show just wasn't intriguing enough for me to continue watching. I'm a bit disappointed, this was not what I was expecting from the raving reviews.
