Story - The story itself is about a mother who will do anything to protect her children. Not only was she a mother to her own 5 children, but she was a mother figure for all the princes in the palace who were struggling. The pacing of the story was very well done; every character was well written and believable.

Acting/Cast - No doubt, everyone was great but Kim Hye Soo really deserved the title for best actress.

Music - I enjoyed the music and OSTs in this drama (even though there was only 1 or 2).

Rewatch Value - I gave this a 10 for rewatch value which says a lot since I barely, if at all, rewatch anything but this show hits differently. I tend to find most k-dramas very interesting at the beginning but tends to fall off around the end which definitely affects its rewatch value. This on the other hand, was never boring and binge worthy until the end.
