Seis años después…

Siempre ha sido una serie que me ha llamado la atención desde su emisión, sin embargo lo he ido posponiendo hasta verlo seis años después. Tardé demasiado, pero igualmente siento que no es una serie que se ha echado a perder completamente a través de los años, en comparación con algunas que ya ni quisiera volver a ver.

Nos encontramos en esta historia misterios sin resolver, pasados trágicos y el cliché del destino, agregándole una pizca de fantasía. La premisa me llamó demasiado la atención y sobre todo el personaje de Sharon, sin duda una villana en toda la historia que dejará una marca en cada personaje.

Tiene drama, romance, fantasía y como casi nunca falta, una comedia.

Algo que destacaría, y sin dar spoilers, fue como la persona que escribió esto literalmente jugó con las mentes de las personas dejándonos a cada uno de los espectadores (porque casi que aseguró que todos estuvimos igual) sin palabras ante el desenlace de esta serie.

Muy recomendable para aquellas personas que aman los dramas de antes, puesto que siento que tendría esas mismas vibras.

way to long

The story was dragged way wayyyyyy wayyy to far. Totally unnecessary with 14 chapters even 16 chapters was more than enough.
I just keep waiting to finally knows the end.
Love the main characters but it was quite boring since the chapter 15-16
this review we 500 characters is even longer that the drama. first and last review

A Story About Everything, That Somehow Ended Up Saying Nothing

I’m still not entirely sure what I watched.

There was reincarnation. Time travel, maybe. A cursed coat? Some incense. And a love story that was supposed to span centuries but barely held together scene to scene. Black Knight didn’t just fumble its plot — it buried it under so many tangled concepts that I felt like I was constantly trying to solve a puzzle without knowing what the picture was supposed to be.

It’s not like the ingredients weren’t there. A solid cast. Gorgeous cinematography. Hints of myth and mystery. But everything was so bloated and self-serious that it became impossible to care. I wasn’t emotionally checked out — I was just lost. Not in a fun, twisty, where-is-this-going way. More in a why-is-this-still-happening way.

The romance, which should’ve been the emotional spine, never clicked. Not because the actors lacked chemistry — they did what they could — but because the writing gave them no real human stakes. Everything was fate, destiny, past lives, soul bonds. But none of it felt earned. There were moments that should’ve landed, should’ve meant something, but the buildup wasn’t there. Just a lot of intense staring and vague declarations about protecting each other, forever or whatever.

It’s rare for a drama to leave me feeling absolutely nothing, but this one came pretty close. The tone was all over the place — melodrama crashing into mystical exposition, laced with random plot threads that never wove into anything coherent. I kept watching because I thought, surely this will come together. It never did. If anything, it unraveled more with every episode.

By the end, I wasn’t angry. Just exhausted. And vaguely amused at how far off the rails it all went.

I don’t throw around 1s lightly. But this? This earned it.

Kim Rae Won who played the character Moon Soo Ho absolutely well what a great actor he is. Shin Se Kyung who played the character Jung Hae Ra / Boon Yi also played well. This was a very strong woman role. I applaud her. Seo Ji Hye who played the character Sharon / Choi Seo Rin, all I can say is very convincing! Jang Mi Hee who played Jang Baek Hee, I wished she could be my mom now.

The storyline couldn't get any better than the way it was written. OMG, this was so good! Had me dropping tears at the end. Will not say if it was Happy Tears or Sad Tears. Talk about a Love Story with lots of twists and spins. You can't miss any of the episodes and don't cheat by jumping to the end or another episode. Watch every episode in sequence. If you don't, you will ruin it for yourself. The visuals, fantasy, and supporting actors/actresses all did great to make this story work. Thank you to the Team. Awesome JOB!

I really love fantasy dramas and like a bit of magic etc. I was expecting more from reading the synopsis. To put it simply, after the first episode I was interested in what will happen.. but then it became super boring. Maybe because the main character is a bit off? I find her quite dull and mild for the main drama character.
I tried to give this drama a second chance.. but.. i still can't get it.. all characters seem quite artificial to me.
I would say, that this drama will have its audience, however, I can't imagine which demographical group/s would like it. if you know the series target audience? I would be happy to know. my guess,,, 14-15 yo girls?

the drama which makes me fall into K-Drama addiction

if there was higher than 10/10, I would have given to this drama 10000000…. story, music!, casting, acting… from A to Z more than perfect. after this drama, I started to be more careful about what I wish for! the base story gave the crucial message to the viewer clear message as “be careful what and how you wish for something”
I have watched this drama 2 times.. I can watch again & again. best quality ever in K-drama world.
even though I am not so big fan of female lead, the story and especially music of the drama hypnotized me. I had watched many many dramas and honestşy I can tell that this drama is at my number 1!

not worth the time

Another drama that is a waste of time to watch. I actually didn't know where the writer was going with each episode.

I loved the Slovenia part of the shoot but other than that, there is nothing else that would take up your interest.

The dialogue is off, the story is off, the acting (except for the lead actor). The story has somewhat of a fairytale vibe but it is so poorly written. I cannot understand why the lead actress has this desire to approach the second lead every time. When you think about it, there wasn't much interaction between them except for the time she got the coat.

The setting of the boutique felt cheap and not well thought out.

I couldn't stomach watching the rest so I dropped it at ep 5

Amor que ridiculariza o mal diante de sua magnitude

Precisava falar sobre esse drama, o quanto perdi em ter adiado para assisti-lo devido a baixa classificação. Dramas com o tema reencarnação são difíceis de compreender e aceitar. Primeiro devido ao sofrimento dos personagens (que o digam, Goblin, Black, Amanhã...), afinal todos estão resgatando dívidas. Segundo, dificilmente terminam bem...sempre há uma morte que faz jus a temática de eternidade.
Foi um excelente drama, com paisagens lindas, personagens bem construídos. Com falhas? Sim. Mas perdoáveis se levarmos em conta todo o enredo e não somente o fim.
E ele a protege... seu “Cavalheiro Negro” a protege até o fim!! De forma linda, intensa. Uma das frases mais marcantes é quando na era “Joseon” ele fala em um momento dramático “ Se você reencarnar, ainda que seja como um grão de areia, te acharei”....
Os vilões foram devidamente punidos com um fim lógico, típico de dramas de fantasia. Enfim valeu a pena assisti-lo.

Bis Folge 9 hab ich es versucht...

Man kann nicht sagen, dass ich der Serie keine Chance geben wollte. Bis Folge 9 hab ich es versucht...aber leider holte mich die Serie überhaupt nicht ab! Die Storylines passten alle überhaupt nicht zusammen. Man hätte hier auch einfach zwei verschiedene Serien draus machen können. Die Musik teilweise so unpassend zu den jeweiligen Momenten (und vor allem...ein schrecklicher Score!). Die Szenen sind seltsam zusammen geschnitten...Handlungsstränge sind maximal unlogisch. Warum zum Teufel, tanzt ein unwichtiger Nebencharakter mehrmals einen Ausdruckstanz im Hintergrund? Soll das ein Stilmittel sein? Hat nicht funktioniert!
Leider entwickeln die Hauptcharaktere keine prickelnde Chemie zueinander. Die "Böse" in der Geschichte starrt öfter einfach in der Gegend herum, ohne Grund und Sinn. Rückblicke werden nicht nur 100fach sondern 1000fach eingespielt, so dass es dem Zuschauer schon aus den Ohren raus kommt. Die Charaktere sind allesamt leider maximal unsympathisch und das ändert sich auch mit voranschreitender Folgenzahl nicht. Alles in allem ist es eine Geschichte, bei der man permanent das Gefühl hat, dass keiner so richtig weiß, wo es hingehen soll. Es war eine Zeitverschwendung. Ich hab mich durch die letzte Folge geskippt. Ja...auch das Ende ist unsympathisch, traurig und unangenehm. Es lohnt sich also nicht mal durch zu halten.

Nem todo final precisa ser épico quando o amor atravessa séculos inteiros.

Dorama embalou com fantasia, amor eterno, figurino de época, promessas de proteção e… um final que deixou o coração meio “hmmm, era isso?”.

“Cavaleiro Negro” é aquele dorama que mistura romance com fantasia, passado com presente, e entrega uma história de amor que resiste ao tempo, à morte, à inveja e até à reencarnação. A trama gira em torno de Moon Soo Ho, um homem que ama há séculos, e Hae Ra, a mulher que, sem saber, carrega em si todas as memórias do que foi vivido… e perdido.

A atmosfera é belíssima: castelos, florestas, roupas de outras eras, amuletos, maldições e uma vilã que beira o poético. A relação entre os protagonistas é intensa, protetora e recheada de destino — daquelas que fazem a gente suspirar e pensar: “só os doramas mesmo pra acreditar em um amor desses.”

Agora... o final.
Sim, confesso: me deixou frustrada. Se fosse pra julgar só o desfecho, a nota cairia. Mas seria injusto ignorar toda a entrega emocional, o visual lindíssimo, os momentos de silêncio cheio de significado e o sentimento de que esse amor foi vivido com alma, mesmo que não tenha terminado com fogos de artifício.

✨ Tem histórias que não se encerram no final. Elas se eternizam no que despertam em nós enquanto acontecem. 🕯️💫

A Beleza e a Tristeza do Drama

Eu já tinha visto esse drama há algum tempo, mas nunca tinha assistido. Um dos motivos era que eu não estava interessado no momento e também por causa da nota aqui no kisskh. Mas, esses dias resolvi assistir. Gostei das paisagens, que são muito bonitas, e dos personagens. Não tinham muitos problemas para resolver e achei que os problemas foram até simples de resolver, pois não senti ódio dos vilões da obra. Foi uma obra bem legal para passar o tempo.

Mas nem tudo são flores. Apesar de ter ambientes bonitos e bons atores, o final deixou a desejar. Já estava esperando a morte de algum personagem, mas não esperava a morte da protagonista feminina no final. Ela teve uma vida feliz com seu amado, mas dá uma tristeza que ela morreu e ele ficou, por causa da imortalidade dele. E no final, fica aquela dúvida se ele vai encontrá-la de novo ou vai ficar vagando pelo mundo sem ela para sempre. Acho que esse final foi um dos motivos para ter uma avaliação tão baixa aqui no kisskh. Devo dizer que Shin Se Kyung sempre me surpreende pela sua beleza única.
