    Great Watch, Beautiful and Breathtaking

    I loved the show and the story. Great performances by everyone. Hwang In-Yeop shines as Na Il-deung and impresses with his acting skills and portrays his character and his various emotions with finesse, Choi Sung-eun as Yoon Ah-yi delivers an amazing performance and shines in her role. Ji Chang-Wook as the wizard Lee Eul is just amazing, he does justice to his role and impresses you with his skills. Nam Da-reum as the young Lee Eul also delivers a very strong performance and impresses you with his acting skills. Overall a wonderfully acted series with some very strong performances.

    All in all a great show to watch. Very feel good, walks you through various human emotions and stories. Only issue I can think of is that it can be a little bit slow paced at times. But even with that accounted for this is a GEM of a Show and is definitely a must watch.

    season 2 please but...

    An impressive series, one of the new thing was there was no cliche like must of the time (Flashback to 2 centuries ago,Marriage,...)it's a new step, new story line

    The end was effective but i wanna see more and i was wondering if could be a season 2 as good as S1.

    Surprisingly Incredible

    There was an unexpected charm to this show that I can't quite put my finger on. Honestly, when I watched the trailer, I wasn't even one bit interested. I can't believe I didn't know it was a musical until I saw it on my Netflix homepage this morning. I think that's what drew me to watching it: I'd never seen a musical K-Drama before, and especially with Ji Chang-wook and Hwang In-yeop, I practically leaped at the play button.

    Annara Sumanara is a joyful drama: it's beautiful and magical; nostalgic and astounding. I honestly don't have anything to say about that because I finished it only a few minutes ago. I've barely even processed the ending. The songs are quite good and the episodes are each very interesting and immersive. If I was a bit younger and didn't rush to finish the show in one day, it probably would've been 10/10 for me. I think it's a must-watch, for sure!

    Since when this world has become a place where even dreams have to meet a standard?

    Korean dramas keep getting better and better, I am in love of how they are trying new things and going away from typical cliché storylines.

    This is such a beautiful story and it is so brilliantly written.

    Started so weird that I kept wondering where it was going, nothing made sense but it did at the same time! All the scenes are so colorful and stimulating and the performances are just outstanding.

    You will go through all the emotions watching this and it is very raw. Even though some of the themes are used often in kdrama they managed to explore it in such a different light it feels very refreshing.

    I also enjoyed the songs it gave me La la land vibes and I actually think it was well executed.

    I am a big fan of Ji Chang Wook and I have literally watched all of his work, he just keeps surprising me with his awesome acting! I thought the girl( Choi Sung Eun, which I didn't know before) Was fantastic as well and Hwang In Youp did great with this role.

    Watch it, you won't regret it!

    best kdrama of all time

    The drama should be nominated in oscars acadamy awards. This was honestly an amazing experience. Definitely one of the most creative and visually stunning dramas I've ever seen. Feels like it was made to binge and just lose yourself in.
