Superb acting, and compelling chemistry between leads!
Watched RWTMR many times, and I kept rewatching it because of how compelling the story of Pyeonggang and Ondal was!
KSH and NIW's chemistry was one of the reasons I kept rewatching the series----- I imagined them being a couple in real life. Though this is only a retelling of the classic Goguryeo tale, I have to commend the writer for his reimagination of PyeongOn's story.
NGL, I love sageuk dramas (Empress Ki, Jewel in the Palace, Jumong, to name a few) and RWTMR sure hit the right spots. For some the episodes could be dragging (especially the politics inside the palace), but it didn't dampen the story.
Kim So Hyun is a gem of an actress! This girl deserves the best, and I hope more people will take notice of how passionate she is with her craft! Next to Ha Ji Won, Lee Young Ae, Son Ye Jin, Gong Hyo Jin, and Bae Doona, So Hyun became a favorite after watching this, and her other works ( Who Are You: School 2015, Tale of Nokdu, Let's Fight Ghost, Pure Love.)
The other cast members were good as well---- Kang Ha Neul (albeit cameo), & Lee Ji Hoon were really good!
Na In Woo was a revelation, as he truly embodied the foolish, but oyal On Dal. He was literally a gentle giant especially in his scenes with So Hyun wherein he exhibited being his being a dutiful husband.
Their relationship was so organic---- from Dal getting infatuated with Ga Jin's beauty, to becoming her savior, then ally, and ultimately becoming husband and wife---- for reel to real.
The kiss scenes progressed from coy and awkward, to full of love, and passion (NIW kissed KSH like she was his treasured wife,, it was so romantic.)
If not for the Ji Soo issue, I am guessing that RWTMR could've scored higher in terms of viewership, and of ratings.
Guys give this a shot! Worth watching!
P.S. I wish NIW and KSH will once again team up in a modern day drama ( kinda medical drama wherein they'll be former flames but gor separated due to NIW pursuing his dream abroad; not knowing that he left a pregnant KSH. Fate has it that the two will meet again as professional doctors who must work together to stop a new virus from spreading. The catch?! One of their twins got infected with the virus, and was assigned as NIW's unknowningly. Teehee, no annoying love triangles for both actors this time around.)
