So For HDL – I’m going to copy paste mostly & elaborate where needed. A drama diary of sorts.

First things first – 5 minutes into episode 1 & already its failing at logic…She’s dressed in joseon garb… Only her stole flies.
The reeds aint swaying, the dust ain’t flying… Only her stole. How freaking poetic 👏 👏 👏
She keeps saying she’ll slice off the chatty halmoni. But not even a scratch. Dammit why is a barbaric gal so anti actual violence?
ll By the middle of ep 3 but it’s already discarded a bulk of logic. Ep 2 had dialogue – “Nothing in HDL can be explained by human logic” & l had my HA😂😆🤣 moment. In the First episode they showed a shot of ML’s father standing in the balcony as if it was part of the real world. In ep 3 they go that the hotel doesn’t exist in the real world.
Plot Holes Galore :-
1) Aforementioned
2)The FL’s an undead human with powers. How? No explanation.
3) The ghosts can enter a painting & it can be turned into a quasi real place for them to get solace in? What even 🙄
4)The ML leaves his hotel day job during the day to run an errand for the FL w/o any repercussions ,How convenient.
5)The ghost can go from being in the state they died to completely normal looking just by wishing alone? How freaking convenient Gu Chan Sung gets dreams of her (that are shot wrong btw, if he is one of the men why would they show things from a neutral perspective? Poor direction for a dream sequence)
6)They wanted to show that the ML can help in the healing process so the female eyeless ghost gets back normal appearance, but then conveniently that part is forgotten for later ghost guests.
The hotel workers are ghosts, & there’s no explanation for the rules of their change of appearance either. From hair to clothes. They’re still spirits since they can possess, so how can they change their clothes, hair etc? (even with the services the hotel offers, HOW?!)
EP 3-4 : Where’s the linear progression in the story? You have a standard format used in mystery shows, of dealing case by case & then the story in the background moves concurrently with that. But here how does our guy go from being a reluctant worker that fears ghosts to being interested in Man Wol? If curiousity about ghosts, how their world works & Man Wol comes first I’d buy it. They leaped too many steps at once.

By ep 4 their mythology is all over the place.
From Korean fantasy to Greek 3 crones of fate. Like what the actual Fuck. This isn’t fusion, it’s just doing making up anything willy nilly. This is beyond poor writing.

The only thing this bad writing explains is why their moon looks so white, big & bright – because it’s all an illusion of a pretty world. But even that is such a cop out.
I have a feeling I’ll be *tut*ting over this gif a lot 😅
