Cute and funny at times this show would have been fine as a 12 episoder. The drag in the second half was painful.
The cast is better than the story. Kang Ha Na as the female former gumiho steals the scene as a secondary lead not in a triangle thank goodness.
Hyeri gives a lively performance. She is a good actress. Jang Ki Yong is okay in a cutesy rom com role.
If only it had been shortened.

Ok so Tvn gave us 2 fantasy romance drama at the same time! (My favourite genre). Which is "Doom At Your Service" & this one! I started watching both but I was literally hooked by "Doom At Your Service "..it was hot-passionate romance in dark fantasy! I loved it & it was a masterpiece! Then here comes totally different romantic fantasy "my roommate is a gumiho "! It's lightweight Cute Romance with light fantasy! ML is mythical creature "Gumiho"& FL is a normal girl with hilarious personality ! First 6 episodes of days were like most interesting episodes but here 1st 6 episodes were a little bit slow like same things were happening again but it's getting better in epi7 & I'm really excited for next episodes! My ratings for this drama can become higher than this or can become lower also! It depends! (There are not any spoiler! I just shared my feelings about this drama)
After episode 8 I have wasted every second of my life for watching this series. Worst screenplay ever. Don't get me wrong I have laughed hard in funny moments. The comedy was great.
I love it. One thing I most liked about this drama is its comedy. There are so many comic scenes which are fresh and new. I loved the clumsy behaviour of the girl and smile of Orushin is so charming. Thumbs up.
The Good:
The female lead (Hyeri Lee) is so cute and has a positively radiant smile. You really wanted things to work out for her. Her energy was infectious.
The 2nd female lead (Han-Na Kong) is truly beautiful and her acting deftly navigates the line between being worldly and a bit ignorant. That must be really hard to pull off, but she does it so well - it was a lot of fun to watch! I just loved her expression when she realized she had said something silly or ignorant. I'll look for her as a lead in other dramas.
One of the second male leads, Do-Wan Kim, also really helps make this series work. His character is kind of a dork, but you can't help but love him and root for him.
One thing I did appreciate were the comedic elements. They really kept it fun even when (as noted below) things tended to drag a bit.
The Sub-Optimal The story dragged a bit in the middle. My wife and I both thought that they could have cut a couple of episodes. For a few episodes it just felt like it wasn't going anywhere, or maybe it went back and forth. It was actually a bit hard to remain invested in the main couple. In fact, I found myself caring more about the second couple (Do-Wan Kim and Han-Na Kang) and rooting for them to get together! :-)
The love triangle. Gad, I hate love triangles. Although I think In-Hyuk Bae's acting was great, and his role was pretty critical to the story, it still annoyed the heck out of me. But that is probably just me and I know lots of folks are into the tension a love triangle brings. It happens All The Time in KDramas, but IRL not too much. There is enough drama in couples' relationships that adding the love triangle element is mostly just a distraction. Oh well...
Overall I liked the series and was glad I watched it. Parts were very fun and it wrapped up well. But it could have been more tightly written.
