I completed The East Palace; in my very own opinion there's many plot twist I can't predict and the action + the visual were great, but the chemistry between the two leads felt off, the acting... well the emperor was really great (as expected of a veteran). The empress dowager and the crown prince (the third prince) were great too. I was once read that these days in Korea not many young actors can act (on Lee Chae Min and Roh Yoon Seo upcoming drama comment). I think it happened everywhere these days because people only think about pretty face and model body, so even the actors put more efforts on their outer appearance more than their acting ability. Won't casually mention a name since I don't really mind at times. I mind more if a public figure stop caring about their appearance, don't want to see him anymore then. And the plot was flawed. I think because they wanted to put too many story into the script that it became like that. If there's S2, I'll skip it. Give the same point as mdl hehe.
