This is my very first rewiew and I'm writing just because I think it's really unfair the low ratings this series is getting. I've seen less original, lower quality and poorly written dramas get better ratings, and many of them just by fangirling alone.... Ok this is not the best drama ever but it is really good.

The story, even into the 2nd chance cliché, has many interesting plot twists and, ones more original than others, keeps you interested until the last episode. It's true that the first 10 episodes were better conceived, and specially the 2 first ones, but it still has a logic development of events and a very appropriate ending. There are a few things they leave unexplained (for example why some people change apearences and other don't) but nothing that lets you down.

The characters are well played, nothing out of ordinary, the protagonists have good chemistry, dialogues are not predictable, the male lead actor is really beautiful and sweet and shares very well the protagonist role with the female lead who is a strong and well defined character. The secondary chararters are charming and have their own growing and development, which is also a good trait.

The action and romance are very balanced and feels very naturally developed, if you like the thrill this one has many good scenes, and if you love romance and fluffy couples with healthy relationships this one has very sweet moments too.

I understand the people that love romance but doesn't like seeing blood or cruel characters, but it's not my case, the supernatural things are not that deep or with many special effects but the explanations are efficient and enough to make it logic and plausible.

It was an enjoyable watch and I would recommend it to anyone that likes action, thrill, romance and supernatural convination of elements.
