lets ignore the fact that this review is a week overdue...ANYWAYS. i started watching this drama when it first came out because one of my fav editors was also watching bc of the main lead (jung so-min) and i saw EVERYONE talking about it so i decided to see what it was about. what first drew me in was how POWERFUL the action scenes looked. I mean what convinced made me want to watch was the go youn-jung (nasksu) action scene in the beginning. I also felt like this was really different than what i usually watch and I liked that because it had everything I was looking for in a drama and it all just felt complete. I found all the plots interesting and throughout the show I was amazed at how well made the cgi and scenes were. Not to mention the actors are just as great and I recognized most of them and I was happy about that! Theres so much I want to say without writing a whole essay lmao. First: The plot. I feel like the comedy-action-historical-romance-fantasy genre blend was done great, tho i never really considered it a heavy historical drama like the others, also since its heavy on the fantasy. I genuinely fell in love with (most of) the characters, especially mudeok/naksu and jang uk. The backstory / character development for both of these characters is just INSANE and i disagree with everyone who says the two didn't have chemistry. Their romance was just not like the others!! Tho, I will say it feels (slightly) overwhelming at times having to keep up with so many relationships, romances, backstories, characters, etc. Overall the pacing was fairly good, even the ending wasn't that rushed (i think). The OST for this drama is definitely going to the top 5 of kdramas (Aching by Kassy has my heart). I just loved watching this drama every weekend and waiting for it to be the weekend during the weekday hehe. Lastly, the ending had me completely shocked, I was screaming, crying yelling thinking jang uk was killed by mudeok when she hadn't even realized. like damn that hit hard. BUT HE DIDNT DIE HAHA. Anyways, there's more I would say but i wouldn't be able to fit it all here but I seriously recommend everyone to watch this. 9.5/10
