If you want to take a break from action dramas this is for you!
The story lacked something. I did stay with it because of Wallace Chung who is one of my top Chinese Actors. I love dramas that have a lot of action in it which I felt this didn't have as much. I know how good Wallace Chung acts when it comes to martial arts such as the "General and I" which is my #1 Wallace Chung drama. Knowingly this is a historic drama for China, they have to be pretty careful in how the storyline goes. Wallace Chung who played Xu Ling Yi played his part really well, I can't deny that. Seven Tan who played Luo Shi Yi Niang, this my first watching this actress and I don't want to make a review on her just yet.The only thing that I credit this Cdrama was the fact that Luo Shi Yi Niang took herself out of the palace to help other women in the Embroidery business which made me happy therefore I rated this drama 8.5. I also did love the visuals as far as the location, costumes, and the embroidery was beautiful. Thanking the rest of the cast for their acting skills.

I mean the storyline could've been more than it was. I like the concept of where the story writer was taking this. I didn't like the fact that the father of Ji Hoon fell in love with his son's long time childhood friend. I mean seriously the son's girlfriend??? It was good before it came to that episode. It turned me off! I could see if he was seeking out the secret love that he had. I mean others may think this was good... but for me... I rated it a 7 because of all the episodes before that one... I laughed a lot but was coldly turned off to it. If you watch just be prepared for it. All the actors I loved, they did their part. I did rate them a 10. Looking forward to seeing more K drama with two male leads and the actor who played MJ.

I was highly upset when Chengxu was killed off. I skipped episodes 51, 52, 53, and 54. I watched 55 and 56. The 6 episodes were not good at all. I wanted to drop it but after Queen Dowager was still alive, I decided to watch the last two episodes. The perfect ending to this drama would have been if the Queen Dowager died when her son died that her spirit would be with Chengxu spirit until they are reborn. I'm not blaming any of the actors or actresses for this story. I didn't like the way it was told towards the end and I hated the fact that Chengxu was kidnapped and Ming Yu was set up with his brother... for me, her love was not strong enough to go back with Chengxu. This is the writer's fault. I don't know if this was fiction or a true story... I could've given it a really low rating but didn't because I am a fan of Cheng Yi.

Well, I wished that Yeo Jin Goo was not playing the Prince and Jang Geun Suk was but I guess either way both Characters were strong. I love Yeo Jin Goo and love his acting. His eyes tho! Another gift from the Highest! I am looking forward to watching Jang Geun Suk in "Switch" which is the last drama before he serves his tour in the military. Right now, I don't have an opinion about him. Whatever he does, I will pray and wish for good health! I do love the way he sings!
The storyline ended up good. Everyone played their parts so thank you. There were some characters I wish didn't die, well two of them. I couldn't imagine myself living in that era!
