I had a lot of dissonance while watching this because I kept trying to like the ML and couldn't. 2ML was the lead in my heart from the start. In this way I think the writers did a good job of helping me feel what the fairy was feeling (supposed to like one but drawn to another).

Was this a great drama? Not particularly. Like many others it had plot holes. But I liked the way my well-founded genre expectations were challenged. 2ML and Jeon Soon were both fun characters to watch. So despite

(1) my lack of appreciation for FL's portrayal (I really struggled to understand why every character fell in love with her--I'm wondering if this was an issue of casting)
(2) my loathing for the excessively flat characterization of the 2FL and
(3) the absurdity of the three other local immortals (Teacher Goo. Fairy Oh and Wizard Park) who were more like the three stooges than actual people (really--is that how ridiculous you are after living over 600 years?),

I was engaged enough to watch this entire love triangle drama.

And the ending...I would have totally expected the sweet and substance-less disintegration from a Taiwanese drama. Here it was a bit of a surprise (and let down). Like the cotton candy (or cloud candy) so prominently shown in the finale, everything faded into rosy-tinted happily ever after. But really, can a ML truly have that dramatic of a change? The professor was so gentle and empathetic and almost glowing at the end.
