This was GOOD. I never watched such a long drama before, AND it was my first historical one. And I really loved it. It was very accurate - from the costumes to the very strategic and clever plot - all done very well. For me, it is important that plot and characters do behave/develope realistically/logical, and this drama delivered. It even got me hooked on historical dramas and the real history of Joseon/Goryeo and now I am well informed about the history of Korea :) The king of Goryeo here was written and played so well, that he is one of my favourite characters I have ever seen in Asian Dramas. So, if you like clever stories and lack of comeday doesn't bother you, then try this. It is awesome.
