Well known doesn't always mean you can't endure the heart ache

You need a stout heart to watch this one, and I barely managed it. As one of over 50k subscribers harassing Viki to get this drama back for viewing, I was determined to see it through. I'm not disappointed to check it off my "must watch" list. But goodness gracious me, it was a bitter journey. Frankly, if Viki didn't limit it to 5 episodes each week, I might have ruined myself. It took about a week to recover after watch each 5 episodes.

Definitely one of the best dramas‼️ The soundtrack was too good. And the choice of cast actors was Directed in an exemplary manner from start to finish. The costumes were beautiful, but some wigs were really terrible distractions. The story was great fantasy but heart rending from beginning to end. And the end was disappointing. Now I understand why so many people have spent years crying for the second season. But too many years have passed.

While I highly recommend it as HIGH quality, not everyone can endure the ultimately sad journey of such wonderfully crafted characters. So in the world of Korean Dramas, this one is definitely a 10⭐️. But in the heart of this viewer, the end didn't satisfy. And as a person who loves a happy ending and can accept well written sad endings - I simply cannot endure ambiguous holes for an ending.
