Diary of a Night Watchman Episode 2 Reactions
Overall, episode 2 was tension-filled and decently paced. A lot of it picks up toward the ending, but it's not to say that the beginning and middle portions were slow. The build up was nice and the placement of the action scenes were nice. The actor playing the King does a great job of portraying his character under his current state and his expressions were believable. In addition, the supporting roles such as the King's son play very convincing parts in this particular episode. For those wondering whether they should watch this drama, I suggest to give it a shot. And also, for those pondering between not watching and watching, I suggest that they let more episodes come out with the adult cast and then base their opinions from there.

This episode has officially sealed the deal on reserving two hours of my life, ever week, for The Night Watchmen's Journal. This drama has already done the unexpected, and it continues to surprise me.
The first half of the episode is, again, background story, and we have yet to see the main characters as adults.
I'm excited to see where this story goes, and what surprises they are going to throw our way.
I'm not particularly fond of historical dramas, and I usually tend to drop then within the first few episodes, but I have a feeling this drama is going to keep me enthralled and watching all 20 episodes.
