Not enough monsters in my opinion.

The episodes are rather straight forward, nothing new and the ending was clear from approx.half of the episodes. I liked the characters though.

The actors' performances are solid.

Concerning the demons/monsters: I was a little disappointed about how few of the we could enjoy - it was more drama and family gathering than monster hunting in the end. If there will be a second season, I hope they include more of it (maybe it was a question of budget?).

Résumé: Good acting, too few monsters, nice characters that can easily be liked, nothing new but solid so far.

I'm writing this review only because Jason Schwartzman deserves to be mentioned. In his role he is just brilliant, so thanks for at least his performance.

The casting for Snow was also not bad, but the rest of the actors can be forgotten. Above all, we couldn't stand the calling of 'Lucy Gray' after what felt like the 100th time.

We're generally not big fans of singing in movies, but these songs were placed so tactlessly that it felt like imitating a Disney film. The only suspenseful part is in the last section of the movie - precisely when it ends.! It seems like the whole movie is made for teenagers. Overexplained and repetitive scenes dominate. We're glad we didn't watch the film in the cinema.

I don't understand all the fuss about this series. In my opinion there was hardly any chemistry between the protagonists, the story was often full of holes and illogical, and the love story didn't really fit into the constantly suggested serious situation.

If you're looking for entertainment, you'd be better off finding another series. If you're looking for a very slow-paced narrative with a bit of romance and beautiful costumes, this is the right choice.

After all I think everybody who is a fan of south k-dramas will have enough with the series. Anybody looking for a bit more will not be satisfied. A pity for the whole plot.
