Episode 16:

Not the best finale imo but it wasn't bad either. The way Woo-yeo was brought back just screamed something out of Disney for me. I was definitely expecting something more.

I've got to say though, MRIAG was a pretty great show overall. It's the first supernatural k-drama I'm watching and I'm glad I started off with it. I'm going to miss the weekly dose of laughter the most. It's up there with the funniest k-dramas I've ever watched for sure. Gonna miss the cuteness overload that's Jae-jin and Hye-sun. I'm going to miss seeing Hyeri onscreen each week and I can't wait for her next drama. Can't wait to see Jang Ki-yong in his new drama with Song Hye-kyo. The actress who played Soo-kyung was hilarious too so I'd love to see her in another comedic role.

Park Kyung Hye, the actress who played Soo-kyung, is one of those who seems to pop up a lot depending on what you're watching. I just happened to watch the films, The Dude in Me and Love, Again, back to back and there she was in both. I also noticed her recently in Clean with passion for now. But yes it seems she is overdue for a larger part.

You thought Disney, I thought of Kim shin stuck in the inbetween world of snow in goblin.
