Can someone explain? What is Frank's role in the story and how is he significant in the plot (sorry if it comes as rude or foolish, but as I watch, I often only have half my attention on the drama and thus did not understand many things)? Thank you.
Most of the drama just focus on the leads' frienship, attraction comes later on. You will really enjoy their friendly chemistry most of the show that when they become romantic, you're not really bothered. Plus they don't have kissing scenes (except one kiss on the head). Female lead also has two other love interests. One is a female gisaeng (fans still debate whether she loves this gisaeng or the male lead more), another one is her adoptive brother who has feelings for her but she only feels great friendship for him.
you a hater! go watch arthdal chronicles he is total different there from what you describing and also it is his…
Subpar actor?! Most people I think have only seen him in DOTS, Reborn Rich and Vincenzo. Have you seen Tree with Deep Roots (he has 4 episodes cameo him but the writers liked him so much they considered him for Arthdal)? Werewolf Boy? Innocent Man? Even in Sungkyunkwan Scandal he's a natural charmer Here are videos of his acting: 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um3ilRCN9w4 , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25WOK7ArnZw => videos are of Tree with Deep Roots way back 2011, also check comments were Koreans really enjoyed his acting. All this serious acting before he got a lead role in Kdrama. And most of these scenes he's acting with veterans and he's very much on par acting with them. I did not even include the video here where he's confronting his character's older version (one of the highlights of the show) 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eo5lh5qwh8 => A Werewolf Boy -> whole video is good but highlight is 12:52, the wolf howling and growling and acting are all him. He got a Baeksang nomination for this movie. All his competitors for his category are older more veteran actors. 3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KggTsO3RIOY => The Innocent Man (2012 Kdrama) -> watch the last scene with the woman on the bench. This is his first leading role in kdrama by the way.

Ha Ji Won lack of expression?! Sorry to the commenter below but Ha Ji Won did very well in acting this drama. She's hiding her emotions in many of her scenes with Ji Chang Wook since she's showing herself as a cold woman. I can never forget the scene when she is about to cry when one of her enemies was punished but she wiped her tears because she has to show restraint and coldness. The male leads are great but this is Ha Ji Won's drama. I highly recommend people to watch Hwang Jini and Damo, especially for peeps who became fans of Ha Ji Won due to this drama. The dramas I recommended maybe old, but they are both great, they were considered amazing sageuks when they were released. Old dramas deserve as much attention as newer ones.
any dramas similar to this? with the melodrama, darkness, beautiful romance
Try Time Between Dog and Wolf for Lee Joon Gi (Do Hyun Soo actor) or Innocent Man with Moon Chae Won (Cha Ji Won actress). The thing is though both these dramas have more amnesia than this one.
Try to watch at hdtoday.tv for hd watching. Or you can download the episodes from myasiantv so you don’t have to deal with interruptions anymore (not sure if this is hd though).
