Empress Ki is hands down one of the best dramas I have ever seen. I was hooked right from episode one. I've spent about the past six months watching Empress Ki every week. I spent my days refreshing the page waiting for it to tell me the new episode was released. The script was fantastic and the script writers did a great job. There were a lot of moments where I found myself incredibly frustrated because of the unfairness to one of the characters or when a character is wronged in some way.

Acting/Cast
The cast was pretty amazing. Ha Ji Won did a fantstic job in this drama and soon I want see another historical drama of hers. Ji Chang Wook also did a really good job as did Joo Jin Mo. I recognised a few of the actors.

Music
There were some great OSTs which are worth downloading.

Rewatch value
Empress Ki is quite long but I'm sure in a few years time I will rewatch again. There are lots of amazing scenes in this drama.

Overall this drama was AMAZING!! I really loved it and I'm sure you will too.

I don't think any words would be able to justly convey the masterpiece that was 'Battle Of Changsha'.
The whole drama was an epic journey mainly in the point of view of the young XIangxiang and her twin brother Xiaoman. At first I thought this drama was a romance but I was incorrect. Don't get me wrong here, there is romance but Battle of Changsha is so much more than that.
This drama retells the war mostly in relation to the major city Changsha, and not only do you learn more about this war between Japan and China but you fully appreciate the horrors of the war and what a disaster it really is.
'Let us hope there is never a war in the future' I wish too that this would be a reality. Even now, with wars in the Middle East it just goes to show that mankind doesn't learn from their mistakes. Tragedies keep repeating themselves in vicious cycles and with the advancement of technology, war is far far more dangerous.
Anyway, the story fully deserved 10/10. Be prepared to cry. Even I, who rarely cries when watching movies/dramas was reduced to tears. The writing was amazing, and the character development was very clear and realistic . Watching Xiangxiang and Xiaoman grow up was truly a journey.
The acting was also a 10/10. Wallace Huo, is not only handsome (in my opinion anyway:P), but can act well too, His eyes, I feel are quite expressive and I'm always drawn to them. All members of the cast played their roles well and I have no complaints there.
The only reason rewatch value is 9.5/10 is because I don't know how I will bear to watch this drama again. Perhaps in 5 years time I will come back to it.
Overall it was a 10/10 and fully deserves it.
(I know I'm going to start having Wallace Huo withdrawals so I will definitely be watching 'Love Me If You Dare' soon! )
HAPPY WATCHING!
