I've heard about the show from my friend but hadn't really looked into it. Conceptually it seems pretty interesting, for some reason when I first heard of it I initially thought it was a high school sports kind of show, not a modern supernatural drama.

Although I'll continue practicing HSK4, especially for the grammar, I may up the level of comprehensible input content.
