Seo Ye-Ji’s voice is literally the most attractive thing ever. I loved episode 1 (haven’t seen episode 2) and I’m so relieved that it doesn’t suck.

i came here to say exactly the same thing about her voice! i never noticed it being this deep before tbh

[fadeintoyou.livejournal.com]

Yes to her voice! I’ve watch a couple of her other works and each time have been attracted to her voice. This drama is no different.

i had some doubts about this drama after first ep (it wasn't bad but it felt kinda like hotel del luna and in the end i hated that drama....) but second ep made me really like it! transitions between scenes are so well done, it has an interesting way to present plot and to create this eerie atmosphere. the ending and the way they referenced red shoes? it was the moment when i fell in love with this drama. i hope it won't disappoint me later. the writer seems new, so maybe it's actually a good sign.
i'm a big fan of syj and i just really love her acting and character in this drama. it's so fun! i hope this drama helps her to become a big name in drama industry because i need to see more of her!

People seem to be loving this so far and I want to give it a chance for sure. The description of the female lead is putting me off a little tho, since those kinds of characters tend to give me major anxiety.....

Randomly saw this drama on Netflix and decided to give it a try. It so did not disappoint. ksh and syj’s chemistry is undeniable. they are both so talented and of course attractive. Seconds to this blowing up syj’s career. I need more of her too.

I like it so far. I came in for the visuals and was not disappointed. Theyre both SO hot. I love their voices

Everything about this has been amazing thus far. The grotesque fairy tales intertwined with current life are really well done. The red shoes were A+.

I haven't had a chance to watch yet but I'm hoping to before next week's episodes! Everything I've seen on Twitter and here is positive so I'm excited. They're both just so pretty, I hope the story holds up.
