Bossam has a unique plot and overall, I like it. It took me about 4 episodes to really get invested but that's not unusual. It usually takes a little bit to get into any story so no worries there. The main thing I didn't appreciate about Bossam is the length. There is a pattern with the story and understandably so because of the villain and the overall plot. However, around episodes 14 ongoing, it kind of becomes repetitive and I just wanted them to nip the whole situation in the bud. I think it could have been an 18 or even 16-episode drama and still convey the same message.

Story- It was unique, and I enjoyed it. The plot is lengthy in my opinion, but I think it's common for this genre, so it didn't ruin the whole thing for me. My favorite part was probably the enemies to lovers storyline between Ba Wu and the Princess and how they grow to love each other (It's a slow-burn romance). Also, since I didn't do any research, a lot of the names and battles/wars mentioned went over my head. Some of it does get explained but the politics can get confusing so if you are interested in knowing about the history in depth do some research beforehand :) *I'm not sure if everything is historically correct in the drama but it doesn't hurt to do research if you are interested*

Acting/Cast- The cast was great; I think everyone embodied their character well!! wish they would have cut out some of Cha Dol's crying scenes though. It became a lowkey pain to watch after the first few but he’s a kid, so I tried not to be too bothered by it lol. The main leads did a great job showing their love to each other through their actions and facial expressions which was nice to see :) My favorite characters in this drama have to be Chun Bae and Court Lady Jo, they brought the humor and entertainment for me, and they were undeniably loyal to their loved ones till the end <3

Music- The music was good for the show, just nothing super memorable to me or anything I would listen to on my own time.

Rewatch Value- I really wouldn't watch Bossam again because it was lengthy in terms of plot but it's a good historical show.

Overall, it was a good watch! I will say that the romance aspect of the show can be a little underwhelming depending on who you are. There isn't much skinship, just hugs and the show is reallyyyyy politics heavy. If you're looking for a romance drama, this wouldn't be the first drama I recommend to you but if you're looking for a Historical/Political drama try this one out!

Happy watching!! :)
