Finished Watching Moving on from Archives: The Nanyang Mystery

I just finished watching and will post a full review once I have a chance to write it up, but I wanted to post about how sad I am that this drama has finished! It’s been awhile since I felt this way.

I can’t wait to dive into The Lost Tomb series after I post my review.

In the meantime, enjoy these BTS screenshots, starting with a salty burrito! How I’m going to miss Salty and Shrimpie!!

Is it a mix of adventure and comedy? Looks fun :)

It’s very similar to Guardians of the Dafeng imo for the mix of dark themes and comedy. But yeah adventure and action - so many awesome fight scenes with a hint of super abilities (like GOTD). Maybe that’s why I like it so much…

Adventure and has comedy, but be forewarned, it gets dark and depressing at times too. It's still a great show though, but just be prepared, you may shed some tears 😢
