I had a love and hate relationship with this drama. In the beginning the female protagonist was too ignorant to everything happening around her and was too trusting. I understand this was a fantasy drama, however it was an unrealistic one. Hera’s plot was basically being dragged along by others . She wasn’t a main character but rather a supporting one. Unfortunately she remained so until the very end and her fiesty personality deterred the more she got comfortable in her mans arms.
What I can appreciate about this drama is the fact that It gave me what I searched for in Korean drama land since I began watching them 10 years ago. A consistent villain and vengeance. There is a theme in Kdrama world where the villainess can push you down the stairs, be the reason for public humiliation or a life threatening situation but because she decided to change 4 episodes before the end; all is forgiven. Everyone is chummy.
Black Knight's Sharon differs in the fact that she wants one thing and she is consistent in wanting it. She is willing to do anything to have it and if she fails she tries again and again. If what Sharon wanted was to rule the country not a man she would be my ultimate hero.
Alas she wants a specific penis and is willing to kill who ever is in the way of it. I don’t believe her punishment was matched her crimes. She needed much much more.
Now I am a sucker for the grease so the cheesey fluffy moments between the two leads made me very happy. I loved their relationship and how affectionate it was. The only thing I didn’t like was how submissive she became.  
Another relationship I Loved was Becky and Sharon. Their comical antics as they go through time and their support for each other although the held different views on redemption was very cute. You can sense their bond as they continue to quabble but cannot help but always run to find each other.

This drama should have been 12 episodes long. As I write this I am trying to remember the story worth 20 episodes and I don’t remember anything much. Really! One point to the writers: Sharon commits two major crimes that go unnoticed by the cops in a way that makes them just plain lazy.

The music was genius! The piggy sound that is played when something freaky happens may have been the source of why I needed to watch this drama in public areas during the day light. Daydream by Kwon Sun Il being my favorite . Rather than the story having control of my emotions, it was the music.

Acting wise I am curious to the reason Kim Rae Won chose to participate in this drama. He is arguably  among the best actors in SK and yet his last two dramas have been his least challenging roles. Playing the savior rich man who guides the young female lead.
I like Shin Se Kyung in this role because she wasn’t over acting. She was calmer and more mature. That’s as far as I can comment on her acting skills.
I am excited to watch the actress who played Sharon in other dramas. She was by far the scene stealer and definitely swayed the audience to her side. Although like with the rest of the cast I didn’t see any breakthrough performance moment from her.

I will be rewatching simply for the comedy and fluff.
