I've never despised a character as much as I do this chick (FL). I mean even the idiocy of Kokdu is tolerable in comparison to this FL beyond dizzy plain ole asinine personality. I mean I get that this is a Kdrama and tropes are expected but holy shit balls this woman makes me want to kick my tv.

With so many of Mr Queen's actors having roles here, I really tried to stick it out. I believe 8 episode is more than enough to give a show a fair shot, but at this point I just want Gye Jeol to die so I don't ever have to see her stupid face again. OMG I don't think I've ever come across a woman quite as insufferable as her. She was the embodiment of the "too stupid to live" trope, clueless to the point of being rage inducing. Even a brain-dead person would have had more intelligent thought processes and a better reasoning capacity. Don't watch this.

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER It's a story about the four seasons of relationships. From Spring to Summer to Fall to Winter, and back to Spring signifying new beginnings, new hope, and a brighter future. I talked about the Four Seasons of Relationships here: https://mydramalist.com/discussions/the-season-of-kokdoo/91869-the-four-seasons-of-relationships But, to add to that, I love how in Episode 15 and 16, they revealed additional layers into the meaning of the Seasons. For example, their Korean names have a meaning if you know the Hanja equivalent. [spoiler] 1. FL in the past: Seol Hui- Hangul: 설희- Hanja: 雪希 which means snow. [/spoiler] [spoiler] 2. FL in 2023: Han Gye Jeol- Hangul: 한계절- 계절 in Hanja is: 季節 which means ‘season’- According to Kokdu, her name means Spring. Or, something that was in Winter (her past self) that reached Spring, the changing of Seasons (her 2023 name). [/spoiler] [spoiler] The FL's past and 2023 names are tied to each other. They were never meant to be together in the past, because that past was the beginning of their winter fate. [/spoiler] [spoiler] However, when she was reborn in the present time, she was given the name Gye Jeol. A sign that the winter __season__ is about to end, and the a new __season__ is going to begin. New beginnings. New hope. [/spoiler] [spoiler] And as Kokdu realised, her names mean exactly that. Winter to Spring seasons. From dark and cold, to bright/light and warm. [/spoiler] [spoiler] 3. ML in the past: Oh Hyun- Hangul: 오현 - means "five strings". -- He came back after 5 years.- Hanja: 傲泫 [/spoiler] [spoiler] There are many possible Hanja to his name, but the Hangul itself already has a meaning. [/spoiler] [spoiler] I tried to find other references to five, but found none. The strings can mean fate. [/spoiler] [spoiler] Other Hanja variations of 오 are "to meet", or "bright"; "crow", "black". [/spoiler] [spoiler] Other Hanja variations of 현 are "wepp", or "swift", or "bow string", or "black". [/spoiler] [spoiler] If we consider the possible Hanja characters and meanings, a picture starts to form why he was named Oh Hyun in the past, and why everything ended up the way it all did. [/spoiler] [spoiler] And let's be reminded, Kokdu is Oh Hyun stuck as a god of the afterlife. It still is his name, so, he's living true as Oh Hyun. [/spoiler] [spoiler] 4. ML as a god: Kokdu- Hangul: 꼭두의- Hanja: n/a [/spoiler] [spoiler] I think there's no need to speculate on Kokdu. [/spoiler] [spoiler] Another good thing. The ending was not something expected. There were similar supernatural romance before, and usually they have similar endings. This TV series chose a path less shown in K-dramas. [/spoiler]

I had high hopes for this, but it's gone the way of Jinxed at First... Every single character is terrible, the plot makes zero sense and the main female lead is an idiot. Kim Jun-hyung can't save this drama for me. I'm dropping it at ep 6.
