FANGIRL FEELS
- If you love period dramas with a touch of the supernatural or romantic vampire series, The Scholar Who Walks the Night is one you definitely want to check out when you find the time.
- I started this drama for Lee Joon Gi and stayed for Lee Joon Gi. His display of the vampire Kim Sung Yeol was great. I can’t say anything negative to his acting and that he’s insanely beautiful here. (Those eyes!)
- Lee Soo-hyuk also gave me chills with his extreme handsomeness and skills when it came to acting.
- What I liked about this series : The fight and action scenes, the gorgeous costumes and the two sexy and hot vampires.
- I would advise to watch this for the actors and the scenery.
My Rating – 8/10
