One Episode Was Enough: The Most Ridiculous, and Poorly Conceived Opening That Deserved a Quick Drop
Episode 1 might be the most ridiculous episode I’ve ever seen — at least the most nonsensical one I can remember. This is the first time I’ve ever written a review after watching just the first episode.This time, he didn’t murder her grandfather like in Goodbye My Princess; instead, he killed her master (for a reason that hasn’t been explained yet in Episode 1). A different victim, but the same recycled dynamic.
The heroine, played by the same actress from Goodbye My Princess, feels like she’s portraying the exact same character all over again. She’s headstrong and disobedient, ignoring an imperial decree as if it were nothing, completely disregarding her father’s warnings — just like in Goodbye My Princess. It’s as if defying the emperor wouldn’t put her entire clan at risk of execution. But she doesn’t care; she just runs away, exactly the same way she did in her previous drama, to avoid marrying the emperor who killed her master.
To make things even more absurd, her adoptive brother helps her escape and even points a sword at the emperor without facing any consequences. It’s predictable that he will later become the love rival.
Then the emperor actually loses his temper and decides he wants to execute her brother right in front of her. He forces her to beg for his life and, in the end, pressures her into agreeing to marry him. She does so very unwillingly. To make her obedient, the emperor presents her with her brother’s finger — which he had cut off as a warning.
It’s completely ridiculous. This is my personal form of boycott: after just one episode, I’m done. I’ve written my review of Episode 1, and honestly, I think it’s time we start demanding stories that go beyond these stupid, repetitive, and recycled tropes. Without exaggeration, this episode is one of the most nonsensical and poorly conceived openings I have ever seen.
I have no intention of continuing — not because of anything personal against the actors or fans (everyone is free to enjoy what they enjoy), but because, for me, this kind of writing is truly insulting.

¿Cómo arruinar un drama?
Realmente el título de esta reseña debió ser el título de la serie. Wow, al principio parecía un buen drama, aunque era raro ver el poker face del protagonista literal en todos los capítulos y cuando tocó concluir vino el verdadero desastre. Los untimos capítulos no tenían sentido, daban ganas de abandonar el drama algo difícil después de ver treinta capítulos, al final daba la percepción de que la producción se quedó sin presupuesto o tener un gran problema interno para no poder terminar bien el drama. Se podía sentir que cortaron muchas escenas y omitieron muchos detalles importantes para su conclusión, en fin pobres de los subscriptores que pagaron adicional para ver el final adelantado.Was this review helpful to you?
