The Bride of Habaek
2017
When the god of the Land of Water, Lord Ha-baek (Nam Joo-hyuk) visits earth to retrieve the sacred stones needed for him to claim the throne of the Divine Realm, he seeks out the help of neuropsychiatrist So-ah (Shin Se-Kyung), the only remaining descendant from a middle-class family fated to serve him for generations. Because she doesn't believe he's a god and mistakes him for suffering from a mental illness, she initially resists him. However, after she meets the god of the Land of the Sky, Bi-ryeom, (Gong Myung), the goddess of the Land of Water, Mu-ra (Krystal), and the demigod Hu-ye (Lim Ju-hwan), she decides to aid him in his quest.

An interesting storyline but the story meanders so much. There are so many narrative elements but the show focuses too much on the romantic storyline that it largely feels uneven and it ruins the show's pacing and rhythm. It does have a fantastic kissing scene and a lot of Nam Joo Hyuk being cute.
