I cannot be happier for my buddy Lee Dong-Wook for this part. I watched him in Touch Your Heart but the part really did not suit him at all. This series, finally, made my wishes come true and showed me what I wanted to see. You can even see his personality shine through his character. I enjoyed every bit of this series and the finale was so emotional with an amazing ending scene that will excite, thrill and confuse you. This series ticked everything I wanted to see from romance, comedy to melodrama. Congrats to Lee Dong-Wook.

This is one of those shows where the secondary characters shine so much you forget about the story of the main leads. This drama has a nice backstory and although it's quite typical and it has been repeated a lot in other dramas and movies, keeps you interested. I loved the funny moments and the most appealing thing for me was the story and relationship of the two brothers as well as the backstories of all the supporting cast, moving, deep and painful but very beautiful. Also, what an amazing, refreshing and shocking twist at the end! Didn't expect it and I loved it!!! Well done to the writers!

Just finished watching episodes 13 and 14, and I am astonished at how mesmerizing this series is... I'm not always a huge fan of fantasy... it has to be very well done for me to be even moderately interested. So many fantasy shows are just cheesy and poorly executed. But this... this is incredible! It is so well - written and tightly plotted...the story just slays, it is so fresh! The direction is perfectly handled, giving room for the story and the actors to breathe... production values are amazing, and the acting is exceptional for a fantasy series... The actors' chemistry is on fire, not only between Lee Dong-Wook and Jo Bo-Ah, who play the lead characters, but also between each of them and Kim Bum, who plays the half-gumiho, half-human brother... I have read that there is also some improv happening, which just completely blows my mind! If the director is allowing/encouraging that, then you know you have some superbly talented actors in the production... Supporting actors Hwang Hee, Kim Yong-Ji, and Lee Tae-Ri are also putting in stellar work here. Character development is everything, and it is not lacking anywhere... If you happen to be a music lover, you may find yourself exploring the work of the artists on the soundtrack... Blue Moon, by Kim Jong-Wan (NELL), is the perfect theme: moody, intense, and soulful... Granted, there are 2 episodes left, so I suppose things could spin massively out of control, but having not once been disappointed by anything this far in, I think we're good... This is everything to love in one amazing package... Is there anyway possible to do it again?

This is my first time writing a review, I had to write this because it's been a really long time since I last watched such a beautiful drama! Only 6 episodes so far, but it's getting better and better, and a lot of secrets are yet to be revealed. Lee Dong-wook has really nailed the role, he's just the perfect actor for Yeon's character. All the actors have played their roles very well to he honest. I never for a second got bored or thought that it's going slowly, I'm enjoying all of it. It's already one of my top 5 favorite kdramas. It's very sad, yet heartwarming... it will make you smile, laugh and cry. I only hope that it won't have a sad ending, because I really can't get over sad endings.

I really really enjoyed this drama, up until the very last scene of the entire series. I didn't question a lot as it's a fantasy, and we know how carried away the writers get with fantasy dramas. There were some amazing characters in this, most notably Lee Rang and Ji Ah, and i really enjoyed their respective character arcs. But the last scene had me scratching my head as to why they ended it that way??
