    Who said you were a burden ?

    A cursed princess Seo Ri Yun Hee played by Kim Sae Ron has been abandoned in the mountains surrounded by talismans. Any man she falls in love with will perish and in trying to lift this curse she creates many potions and magic that help to cure sick villagers. Into her life comes an unhappy man Heo Jun who inadvertently burns the book of magic so decides to stay to help treat the locals and lift the curse. It is an ok supernatural historical drama and the acting is all good but the pacing is slow and times and I think would have benefitted from fewer episodes. A lot of people complain about the ending but personally I did not mind it as life isn't always rosy.

    Odd mix of Costumes and Fantasy

    A Joseon-era costume drama with modern lingo and mannerisms. A ghost/good witch/bad witch plot moves along slowly. Who is the target audience here? Women I suspect, men characters are pretty boys or crying spoiled brats.

    Wasted screen time

    The idea is good but they wasted screen time. When characters use their abilities make sure to be consistent. Do not make them able to do something and then not be able to the next. It wastes time spent on more important scenes. Items disappear through frames multiple times. The story could have been halved with all the waste.

    Secret Dealer

    This drama was like a rollercoaster ride without the thrills or the rails. That first episode was unbelievably bad and a huge turn off to kick start the drama but I kept going regardless. The whole mystical shaman vibe in a historical setting turned out to be quite an unsuccessful combo in this case, it felt like they slapped on those elements without any real thought. The entire story felt so limited and restricted, even the cast, when taking into consideration its length. All of that was accompanied by poor pacing, you can imagine how they were trying to push it to reach the 20 episodes mark.

    Mirror of the witch. Decent enough series and at 20 episodes it's not too long. Better than hotel del Luna anyway!
