I ended up binge watching this in 2 days, and really enjoyed it. The chemistry between all of the actors was fantastic, and the use of tech to portray Holo was incredibly successful and fun to watch. My only drawback with this one was probably the progression of the plot. Once they showed Han So-yeon having a brief flashback of blood in the woods, and so early on, I was able to piece most of the twists together. I just wish they had taken more time to reveal that, or at least do it in a way where it didn't make the climax so predictable. But regardless, this is a great Kdrama to watch with newbies to the genre, very cute and overall heartwarming.
This show has a lot of potential, but suffers from lackluster acting/dialogue, TERRIBLE pacing, and characters that lack depth. Visually, it wasn't terrible to look at, the effects were visually pleasing and the background scenery was gorgeous. The first 5-8 episodes were SLOW. To the point where I had it on in the background and around episode 8 I realized I actually needed to start paying attention. It just seemed like everyone talked in circles, the group of "friends" she makes are literally irrelevant to the rest of the plot and never come up again, and at times I genuinely wished I could up the speed setting of the streaming.
That being said, it did end on a large (albeit fairly predictable imo) cliffhanger, and if the show continues I believe it could possibly evolve into something more. I would recommend waiting until another season comes out, otherwise I would consider it to be a waste of time.
