Okay, so I know a lot of people might have mixed feelings about this one, but it's not so bad. The overall storyline is nice, at some points it doesn't really make sense since the world building isn't very deep but it does okay. Characters are a bit all over the place at some points but eventually develop into something pretty okay. 

I'm more concerned about Australian first people's representation within the comic...which isn't particularly great. I think author-nim probably should have actually made the characters indigenous if they were going to go for the reincarnation thing but, um, that didn't happen so I was kind of uncomfortable but at the same time really wante to finish reading this, since it's some of the only representation I've seen in manga or manhua of Australian First People. (Btw I'm not indigenous myself but I am Australian and that is why I have some understanding of some of this stuff with complete respect to anyone who is). 

I like it, but also didn't really like it. It was inacurate at some points and I literally just searched stuff for like ten minutes afterward to double check and I don't think there were any white haired Koreans in Australia pre-1788. 

SO, yah, that's my contribution.
