Gwi-gong

The start was fantastic with a unique story-line between a shaman and Imugi. Now I am a big fan of both Yook Sung Jae & Bona. Also, Kim Ji-hoon did a great job portraying the king too. They all did an amazing job of possession. Never knew Bona can cry that much and she is the most suitable person for this shaman character.

Main leads had fantastic chemistry, it was nice to see them enjoying acting together, totally loved them. You should not miss their behind the scenes (BTS) too.

Horror part was not much scary but it was emotional to witness why they become resentful.

To be honest, "The Haunted Palace" would not disappoint you. The show hooks you from first episode.

Interesting plot but i felt it was dragged for too long. Supporting cast did really well especially the King, Queen Dowager, ML's mom, blind villain and even the queen. Leads have no chemistry imo.

Ok let's talk about the leads both perform ok but most of their scenes the ML actually stands out. I find the FL a bore... like no personality whatsoever I even think she could've used some ad-libs in some of the scenes. She has like 5 expressions. I am not trying to be mean just being critical. The ML was ok but the character is way too weak and no end goal.

The supporting cast was amazing the King & Queens chemistry is top notched. Everybody else act so well.

The plot is about evil spirits and a haunted palace in ancient Korean history and the main message is that spirits do not become evil on their own and it is humans and ambitious people who create evil and negative energies by destroying their own kind.

The story started out very interesting. In this drama Yook Sung-Jae has a very likable and funny character and his acting is acceptable, in contrary to Bona, who has a very boring and predictable character. Even her facial expressions are very cold and except for the end of the series when she cries at times, no emotion can be recognized on her cold and robot-like face. The emotional relationship between them is very fake and even the kiss that is exchanged is very, very unreal.

This show has its shortcoming, but it is a sweet series that the viewer does not get tired of watching. However, the last episode also ends very, very stupidly and we even see an apology from the spirit who intentionally or unintentionally caused the death of innocent characters in this story.

I give this series a 7 out of 10 points.

Bona plays Yeo-ri a shaman who believes her grandmother was killed by an Inugami spirit played by Yook Sung-jae, he also plays Yoon Gap who has his body possessed by the inugami. It has an interesting plot as Yeo-ri has feelings for Yoon Gap but once he is possessed she becomes confused. The story is mainly about a demon called the colossal shadow who lives in the palace and is trying to murder the king and all his descendants. The shaman and Inugami unite to try and stop the monster but also have to fight many minor demons on the way to the final showdown. I am not a big fan of this genre but I can understand if you are this is a good series. Overall ok with excellent acting but a little too much shamanism for me with little character development.

Good movie, The heroes on this movie can be next Lee Min ho, he really talented, not just the face iss good, he really make this movie go far, really enjoy the movie, im from Malaysia, really love this drama, hope can enjoy more for season 2,.. .
