As throngs of friends have been yelling at me to watch the goddess’ IU’s new drama, I have finally succumbed. (Also I finally finished watching To The Beautiful You.)

So far, I really like the story – I’m thinking it’s a genderbent Goblin with a cleaner, smoother story path. Hotel de Luna is a boarding house for the souls of the deceased, and it is helmed by vengeful, money-loving, dazzling Jang Man-Wol. Would I die for her outfits? Absolutely. Please, someone give IU’s stylist a raise.

Then we get a little bit of a Beauty and the Beast type storyline, where a thief accidentally ends up in the hotel and plucks a flower from a decaying tree in the garden. Jang Man-Wol takes this as a sign to spare the man’s life. In exchange, he must promise her the son who asked for the flower, to serve her in about 20 years.

The first episode is overall promising, and I’m hyped for it right now. I’ll leave the blog post at that, since I’m still not feeling so well to write a lot. Toodles!
