Sageuk Lover

Great production, settings, and acting. The story is good but I wasn't really hooked. I'll give this an 8.5 because it is very rare for us to get kdramas set in the Goguryeo period.

this will be my next kdrama after Good Partner and Queen Woo

I've only seen her in Stairway to Heaven and My Princess before this show. I remember liking her acting in Stairway while I don't remember much of My Princess. I'm basing my surprise from the comments of most people that she can't act and then this drama proving otherwise (also that this is her first sageuk, the other actors I mentioned are actors I've always been impressed in sageuk acting).

I'm getting really disappointed :(

New dramas and movies please. Hope it's a serious sageuk. If it's a modern show, it should be something that could showcase your talents and let you wear beautiful feminine clothes. No more crime dramas please (unless it showcase's your acting skills and does not hesistate to show your feminine beauty like Flower of Evil). Hope you get a female centric show next.

She sometimes look like the Korean version of Liza Soberano. They have similar features (similar smiles) and they are both pretty.

same roles? I have only seen Red Sleeve and Park Marriage Contract from her lead roles, and though both have sageuk elements, her characters feel very much different. Park Yeon Woo is very much determined to be with the man she loves (even travelling through time to find him) while Seong Deok Im, while still in love with her man, values her freedom and her friendships is equal as her romantic love if not more.

thanks

all episodes or only episode 5?

When will they release episodes 5-8?

Korea Khitan War is one example of the daeha sageuks I mentiomed previously (the only kind of sageuk that is longer than 20 episodes nowadays).

Keep continuing, you'll understand once they got together why she doesn't to agree with him being a concubine.

Red Sleeve.

The writing for Episode 17 ending is brilliant. It satisfies viewers without compromising what really happened in the past. Those who knew their history understood that they are together in heaven while those who watch this as fiction can interpret it in the sense that the bad things happening after they are together are just a dream.

It's a masterpiece. As a long time sageuk fan, this one is really well done.

Korea rarely makes the long sageuks anymore, I think they really want to sell this as a serious sageuk that doesn't focus on romance. The only long sageuks they have are the yearly daeha sageuk dramas offered by KBS, and those are not even as long as the older daeha dramas (daeha dramas now have 30-50 episodes, the old daeha dramas used to have 100+ episodes).

Really sad. I hope, he'll be able to return to showbusiness after. Criminals who did wrong to other people were able to return, hope this means he can return too, he did nothing wrong to others, only to himself.

It's good as a movie. Considering the cast and the director, it's highly likley it will be shown in international film festival and receive international prestigious awards. It might even be considered for oscars

yes, I'm above 18

Oh, I didn't notice this already started? Is this good?
