I forgot to mention that at the end of ep 8 my interest piqued a bit, but by the end of ep 9 I didn't know why I was watching it anymore..

rooftop prince?

"He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness."

love isn't a feeling.

link doesn't work

the first half of the drama is a bit slow, because the story is being built during those episodes, but I would keep watching it's worth it :)
actually when I first started this drama, it took me a while to get past ep 1 but now this has become one of my favourite dramas.
(this drama is more heavy on political intrigue)

I've been stuck on ep 51 for way to long T_T
but to be fair, I have skipped through ep 52 before I watched this drama so it feels like I've already completed it lol

also - the story suddenly got serious at the end, even though the tone of the rest of the drama was lighthearted and this drama isn't something to take too seriously.

ep 1-4 I was more interested in the story and actually looked forward to the episodes airing. around ep 5 or 6 I started to lose interest. instead of finishing the episodes eagerly on sunday night, I'd take two or three days to finish episodes 6-9. I watched towards the end of ep 9 and decided to just drop it. I've rated it 6/10. I didn't care for the romance. the cooking scenes is what kept me interested. the plot was meh. I still skipped through eps 10-12 to see how it ends. not everyone may agree with this but this is how I feel about this drama.

actually, usually these type of period idol dramas have happy endings, so I would have been surprised if it had a sad ending

i think the king will probably die or something and they'll reunite in modern day

and it's a lot more lighthearted as well

I think it'll be a happy ending in modern day

he isn't my type either, but others seem to like him and that's okay

this drama is what you consider a period idol drama, not a serious historical drama

I skipped through ep 11 and why is it getting all serious all of a sudden? characters are getting killed left and right! I like serious historical dramas, but they should have a serious tone throughout the whole drama, this one started off lighthearted and suddenly got more serious and now the ending feels rushed
