Never have I cried so much for a historical drama. First of all, all the characters are simply amazing and excellent acting skills being shown across. Brilliant and fitting ost to match it, simply brilliant. The first 24 episodes are really good but after that it drags the story out a bit until you get to the last two episodes which were epic. This drama highlights romance, BROMACE (which is the reoccuring theme throughout) and loyalty. I loved the chemistry between the leads and I loved Yeo Un's character - however it does overshadow the main lead's, Dong So, character and many believed it should be about Yeo Un rather than Dong So, its not a bad thing because yeo un is amazing its just not very focused on Baek Dong So's 'greatness'. I guess you will have to see it for yourself. Highly recommended.
I really really enjoyed watching this show although the beginning dragged abit I loved every moment of it. The standard of acting was remarkable especially Lee Jun Ki and its totally made me his fan! Everything was executed perfectly, the lovable funny characters were lovable and funny and the evil characters...well you would just hate them. This drama pulls you into the story and you feel a part of it - when they are sad you would feel sad for them. Honestly this is one of the best dramas I've seen in a while. I didnt expect much at first and I was quite bored but I really glad I didnt give up on it. The music again was amazing it matching the emotions and the scene that was happening. I am definately going to come back to rewatch this drama some time in the future soon and I am looking forward to it! A superb drama indeed!
