IU- Extrodinary Idol/Actress- Great Cast
I started with a 9 because of the action/ drama of the early episodes but ONLY dropped to 8.5 because it could’ve gone to 16 episodes to better close the root causes to the monarchy/ political issues pointed out early in the storyline. Otherwise, the cast was great- Debe Mama stole the show as supporting cast (Jeong Yeon’s older sister) and brought positive and future notoriety to her career for a stellar performance. The ending for the PM could’ve been sorted out better. IU’s character brought out the best in her as CEO/ businesswoman applying her strengths, attitude and character motivation like a sharp edges Ninja and sliced/ diced anyone creatively in her way. Her vulnerability to her father brought drama to a high level. His majesty brought an effective performance that pulled your emotions and tugged on, I’m sure many female fans heartstrings 😊. I thought his performance in Lovely Runner was his peak moment but this project took him to the next level. All in all the storyline was very good. All characters portrayed well and production/ cinematography was well done as well. Just the short episode timeframe is my only negative
