In the comment I made in the first part, I said that I liked the series very much. Although there were some glitches in the story, it was an excellent series in other aspects. The harmony of our lead couple was perfect. Leo Wu and Zhao LuSi were my favorite players. I enjoyed watching it.
But as I said, they ruined the story especially in Part Two. In other words, the subject could not be found in the last episodes, but we watched the rambunctious events of the Lou women, under the name of avenging their treasonous husbands. I haven't been able to figure out why. It was unbelievable that Shosong wasn't on good terms with any of these women, yet these women were able to lure him away. In other words, such a scenario, if someone sabotages this series, only a screenwriter can sabotage their own series so much. Watch it again, it will give me the right. What is the relevance of these events, what happened, two or three? They would avenge their husbands who died of treason from Shosong. What logic, what logic? What does that have to do with anything? bald. So irrelevant.
My screenwriter Zou Yue, An Yi Mo my friends. You couldn't find a topic for Part 2, but did you make them up? It's a pity. You shot yourself in the foot, you cut the branch you were on. Use these words as a line in your next series, don't forget your CAPTAIN brother.
A young girl who lived a locked life in a room until the age of 15 and had nothing to do with the outside, gaining an edge over highly educated and knowledgeable people who later said that she is mine with her intelligence. Opening the locks, as if they were encrypted, measuring the bridges and taking them from there, we'll take the bridge down, developing many more architectural projects. With what knowledge and manners, my dear friends. Later, he also learned to read and write. So he didn't know. He is an ignorant person, but he understands everything. There were no friends.
However, in general, your series is a great series, as I mentioned it in the first part. A series of love and revenge. It was a strong series with its actors and strong with its management. It takes skill to bring these actors together and to narrate in a humorous language. These are very well used. Except for what I said, all the events are reflected in a beautiful flow. Congratulations.
Wishing to watch more beautiful series like this, I wish good luck to those who contributed.

A bad series, riddled with writer and director errors.

It was one of the worst series I've watched recently. It was completely fake. Nothing was complete; it was wrong, incomplete, flawed, completely unrealistic, and completely fake. I was hopeful at first because it featured Liue Xie Yi. I thought it couldn't possibly be a bad series. I wish I hadn't. It's a shame for this actress. Meng Zi Yi and her chemistry are zero. Meng Zi Yi is simply unsuitable for this series, this character. Her wide-eyed performance, her wide-eyed, angry, murderous gaze in every scene, whether positive or negative, her inability to adjust her gaze, and her coldness are the hallmarks of the series. There's supposedly love between the two; they're in love, to death. But I never saw it. Such a fake. I never felt it throughout the series. Aside from a couple of hugs, we never saw any closeness. They crammed some of that into the final episodes. Those were miles away from reality. It just didn't happen.
Princes aren't princes, Princesses aren't princesses, the queen isn't queen. She's the worst. While she's the prince's maid, I think she seduces the king of another country. She becomes his concubine and then kills the queen. Because these details aren't fully presented. They're fragmented. She's ruined a country like this. Not a single intelligent person is saying anything. How can a queen be so casually wandering around, having a secret affair with a prince, and worrying about petty things?
This queen and one of the princes are burning in a fire. Yet, the door is open. If she had left, she would have gone somewhere else. That's what we're shown. She escapes with only a slight burn on her cheek. The prince burns to death. Yet, there are people waiting outside. No one sees this woman leave. They watch. She returns to her country in this state. She continues her evil ways. It's completely lame.
The fight scenes are also lame. There are very obvious flaws. They're visible. They're filmed without seriousness. The series is full of fakery, soullessness, triviality, and carelessness. Everything but the actors is bad. The script, direction, costumes, and makeup are terrible. I gave it a 6,5, but I gave it to the actors. I gave it to the effort. It's a 5.5.
How do we understand mistakes? Let's say the princess is 10 years old and her teacher is 25. She trains them as children. The princess arrives at 25, the teacher arrives at 40, but she looks younger than the princess. Not a shred of makeup, no aging, not even a mustache. It shows a time 10 years later. Negligence, indifference.
The prince and princess relationship. They haven't seen each other since childhood. Let's say at least 10 years. There's no trace of longing. There's no warmth of reunion. It's distant, cold, and completely unprepared.
The state teacher receives a decree from the king. He's going to give it to the princess. He puts her to the test. If he accepts the decree during the test, the arrow moves, and a doctor shoots the woman. If he doesn't accept the decree, the woman is saved. The decree burns. The princess doesn't accept the decree. She saves the woman. You wonder who the woman is. The doctor who knows the princess's poison turns out to be. In that state, he starts making an antidote. Why does the teacher choose a doctor and a poison doctor instead of someone unqualified? Does anyone understand? I don't. Then this doctor cleans up their poison. In other words, he saves the princess and the chancellor. Especially in the final scene, they capture the empress. They would hold her, tie her up, make her talk, and punish her in some way. They could learn the antidote. But they don't. The empress is telling them a story. They listen. Then the plant from which the antidote is produced appears. The empress strikes the candlestick, and the plants instantly burn. It turns to ash. They can't save her. That's the kind of scene. The aftermath is even worse. The empress imprisons them. She leaves them in the middle of the fire. Good God, you know. You wonder who's saving them. The teacher does. So, the wounded, unsure, shabby, barely standing queen was about to kill the princess and the chancellor. They were saved by the half-dead teacher. A complete disgrace. An impossible scene. How can you make a series this bad? If someone sabotages it, this is all it will get. So, I congratulate these guys. I didn't like them. I congratulate the actors, except for Meng Zi. I didn't like her either. Meng Zi was the second or third lead. He's transitioned to lead acting, but he can't quite show the success he has in second and third roles here. My opinion: He needs to adjust his gaze. He shouldn't brag about his big eyes. He should learn to use them. He's used to the evil gaze. He constantly looks like that. He's wrong. He should play the villain opposite the lead actor. He'll go from success to success. It suits him. I'm sorry I criticized him so much. He should watch the series. He'll see for himself that it's not. Liu Xue Yi is quite good. I like her. Her face is an actor's. She plays it. She was very good. Liu Ling Zi played the villain, but in my opinion, she was better than Ming Zi. At least she looks good. Her posture and approach are much better. She's a more suitable candidate for the lead actor. Fang Jin Fan is an actress with potential. She has a pretty face. She's childish. Once she gets over that, she'll be a good actress too. Xu Jing Ya surprised me. It was her first drama, but I thought it was good. It'll happen. He needs a little more experience. I found Gao Han very successful. He was especially excellent in his scenes with Maggie Huang. He showed off his extreme obsession with her very well. Well done. By the way, I also found Maggie Huang successful. Bian Chang, Wang Jia Xuan, and Zhang Zeng Yang were standout actors.

Lord Huaiyang

It was a series that I liked and watched. I was curious. I waited for the episodes. That's why I can say it's a good series. It attracted me with its plot and story. The actors were very good. In fact, what makes you watch the series are the story and the people who portray it. There was a good CAST. They were compatible. Apart from the leading roles, our supporting roles are also of high quality and did a very good job. They made it watchable. There were minor mistakes. I got bored in some episodes. Because it was too long. Trivial events were squeezed in to fill the gaps. They seemed to be smirking. But when you look at it in general, it is a series that is watched with pleasure with a good story, good acting and good management and plot. I recommend it to everyone.

Moxi Moxi Moxi

Overall it was a good series. I enjoyed watching. I've always wondered about the next episode. It was such a series for me. However, there were many setbacks. In my opinion, it had faults, inaccuracies and shortcomings. But all in all it was a series that I loved. It was a little negative that they fit everything in the last three episodes, it's a stuck series. It's over. Even though it had a happy ending, it felt like it was rushed. Especially the attempts of the two traitors' men against the emperor, but the emperor's lack of man and Moxi's knowledge that he would present a document to the emperor about Chen Wende's acquittal, so the general's lover Wan Gui did not take any precautions with his own men, despite knowing this, he went there after a warning. it didn't come though. The excitement was wanted to participate, but it contradicted the facts a bit. If you're going to do something like that, why don't you want help or the general lover doesn't help. Second, Moxi steals documents very easily. He finds it as if he put it with his hand and takes it. If so, why didn't the great general Chen Wende receive these documents? Moxi's illiteracy before, learning from Feng Yao later on, but in our story, Moxi is aware of everything and looks like a character in front of Fengyao. Everyone admires and loves Moxi. She is looking for him. He solves everything. They showed their ignorant courage. They left one woman who read, knew, at the level of a teacher, in the shadow of another. Didn't fit. Of course, it is nice that the power of love between them from childhood continues even if they break up until the last moment, and time makes everything all over again. It is beautifully reflected how lovers in love with each other lose their love against time. It is beautifully reflected in the differences between the noble and the non-noble in marriages. How the balance is disturbed and people's perspectives on them are given nicely. It is also well given that there is no door that money and wealth cannot open. Zhang Nan did justice to the role, it was a drama that was based on him from beginning to end. He got over it. Congratulations. It was very successful. I love Wang Yu Wen.'s naivety. I loved how Sean Sun. acted like he was kidding. He was spirited. Zhao Ying Bo is a little clumsy. Liu Mei Tong, on the other hand, is excellent. I like the idea. She played the man, well done. Veteran players were very successful. As I said, there were many shortcomings, but I watched a good series in general. I advise.

A ridiculous series.

I've never seen such a ridiculous series. It's the worst script I've seen lately. I'm not criticizing the director, but the script is terrible. This is unacceptable. They've practically mocked the audience. Especially from episode 21 to 35, it's a series of nonsense. Mistakes, mistakes, the non-existent, a series of illogicalities, unrealistic things. You name it. It's so poorly written. What's the director supposed to do? What's the actors supposed to do? Believe me, if it weren't for these actors, I wouldn't have watched this series. I watched it just to see what would happen and where it would connect. I had a nervous breakdown while watching. It was that bad. It was bad for those who watched and understood. So what, isn't a series made up? If you watch it thinking, "What would happen if it made sense, what would happen if it were closer to reality or farther from reality," you're not watching it anyway. You're having fun. You're joking. I saw people giving it 9 stars. I'm astonished at what they gave it for. I gave it 5 stars, and that's for effort and acting. Believe me, there's not a single consistent point. There's not a single positive frame you can think of. It's that bad. It's that ridiculous. If I gave examples, this criticism would take 5-6 pages. That's why I can't write. A scholar, a wise man, a teacher, whatever you want to call it, rebels in the empire. It completely destroys the empire. Imagine you're a chief or a manager at the lowest level in this institution, overthrowing the company and becoming the boss. You bark orders at everyone, killing and torturing everyone in sight. If you think this makes sense, I'm signing out of here right now. I'll never watch another series, I won't comment, I'll keep my mouth shut, and I'll issue an apology series. I'll bray like a donkey during that apology. By voicemail. I wonder if the screenwriter who wrote this disgrace will apologize to us and bray like a donkey? Let him watch. These are true, these shots were shot well, and he'll say, "Yes, there's absolutely nothing in this that fits the essence." Here's another example: the prince catches this rebellious woman alone and squeezes her throat. He could have killed her. He doesn't. Why? There's no reason. No consequence. This woman, who committed so much evil and rebelled, is imprisoned in a cold palace. The screenwriter is Ugandan, not Chinese? So, are you that far removed from Chinese history? The consequence of rebellion is execution, no matter who it is. Trying to kill the Emperor, or killing the Queen, Prince, Princess—anyone—is also punishable by death. Acting with your eyes wide open is not a sign of madness, anger, or a desire for revenge. This actress, even trying to portray herself as crazy by constantly opening her eyes, is a disaster of a series in itself. This is a shame for the leading actors, the veteran actors. Perhaps if it had been filmed properly. If they had focused a little on making it a bit more decent, it could have been a very good series. I didn't see anything decent. I saw no reality, no semblance of reality, no logic, nothing decent. I watched utter nonsense. I apologize to those reading this for having to write such things. I'm furious. I don't recommend it to anyone.

The finger cut by justice does not hurt.

First of all, I really liked it. There might be criticisms like this: You're given a new chance to change your bad fate, you're taken back 10 years before the date you died, and you have the power to change your fate. But you know everything. It's too easy for you.

This is incredibly absurd. Knowing is already much worse. You know you need to fix it, you work hard, you do everything, but sometimes it might not be possible. Where do you get the idea that it's possible? Let's say you're going to save a man from death, you try not to send him there at that hour. You plead with him, you put up barriers, but the man still goes. You don't have fifty hands and eyes to watch that person 24/7. It's impossible. I think it's very difficult. But this series ignores these things.

I didn't see much difficulty. Yes, some people, including the prosecutor, even he himself, narrowly escaped death. Let's say he had a chance and he took advantage of it. He was already dead, death wasn't important to him. But what about the others? This shows that even knowing can't save you. Preventing what is to come – and I'm not talking about everything that will happen. Some things that are going to happen are not easy to prevent. You can't. Can you stop an earthquake? A flood? A storm? You can warn about it, but you can't stop it. Instead of a thousand dying, 900 might die.

The event here, in my opinion, touches upon this, the effort to stop the bad course of events, to bring justice, to prevent what happened from happening. That's the reason.
Here, Judge Lee goes back 10 years and tries to correct these unfortunate events. And he succeeds.

However, while succeeding, he easily overcomes the figures who represent the corrupt justice system. Could Judge Lee so easily convince someone who has been a judge for years, then chosen the wrong path, someone who knows how to cheat and profit from it? Could he convince him? That's the problem. It was a bit too easy. Our hero, who was devastated by events related to his family in his previous life, doesn't face any difficulties related to his family in his second life. In other words, his rivals don't use his family. They're not doing any harm. Here, the screenwriter has toned down some things, taken the easy way out, trimmed the episodes to avoid making them too long, and aimed for the shortest route to the goal. I think they did well. Otherwise, the series would never end.

The important thing is to remind the audience once again that justice is necessary for everyone. To show that there is no life without justice. To emphasize the importance of justice. Those who commit injustice will one day, no matter who they are—whether a president, a wealthy businessman, a member of parliament, or a judge—be held accountable to justice. That's the main point here. Justice is superior to them. It will ultimately prevail. They wanted to emphasize this, and they succeeded. Looking at it this way, I gave it 9 points. However, if we look at the way it's handled and say that this part was underdeveloped, that another part was too short, that this part wasn't well-presented, then it would never end. The series could have 1000 episodes. That's how important JUSTICE is. You can lengthen or shorten it as you wish. You can stretch it, give it the shape you want, you can give different punishments for the same crime. That's how it is. Keeping the scales of justice balanced is the most important thing.

In this respect, it's a beautiful series. I liked it very much. The actors were especially outstanding. Ji Sung was a true representative of justice here, he beautifully portrayed the role of the Judge, I congratulate him. Our prosecutors who assisted him were like the main prosecutors themselves; Won Jin A was like a seasoned female prosecutor. Well done. Hwang Hee beautifully portrayed a slightly lower-level prosecutor. Well done. Tae Won Seok was a very good assistant. Well done. Oh Se Young was the most suitable actress for that role. Congratulations. It was very good. Baek Jin Hee is also a very suitable actress for these roles. She was almost synonymous with her role. Congratulations. All the supporting roles were excellent. It's difficult to achieve this, but the veteran actors played exceptionally well. Kim Pub Lee, for example, played very well. He also suited the role. He portrayed it well. I liked it. Jeon Jin Ki was amazing in the death scene. It was a difficult scene. He portrayed that death scene well. It felt real. Bravo. Son Byung Ho and Kim Byeong Ki were masterful actors in their roles. They did justice to their performances. Well done. Now, let's talk about what I consider the hidden lead role of this drama: Park Hee Soon. I think she was perfect for the role; she acted so well that she even influenced the others. Such acting! I really liked it. She was my favorite actress in the drama. Congratulations! I recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it.

The lightness of Face Swap

First of all, our series started well. I loved the story. It was beautifully constructed. What I liked most was that there was a mystery. It was intriguing to pursue this. In this respect, I liken it to a detective series. I felt the tension and mystery. The activation scenes were also nice. Everything was suitable. So it was progressing well with a measured distribution. The thing that bothered me the most in these episodes was the face changing incident. It's too fantastic. Let's get over it. It seemed a little strange to me that after changing the face, the person continues the same relationship with another face that replaces the person he wants to marry and is in love with. Maybe this can be said. I loved his soul, not his face. If we look at this, things such as inner beauty, character, approach to events and people, and temperament are the factors that affect the other party. Even though this still convinces us, isn't it possible that the more we look at his face, the more he reminds us of the other person? Can a person love like this? I thought about this often while watching and it didn't seem believable to me. Even though people stand out with their actions, it seemed repulsive to me to see someone else with whom you have the same antipathy, standing in front of you with their face. I deducted a point from the story in this aspect. I should have broken it more, but whatever. Likewise, while everything was going well in terms of plot, towards the end, nonsense started to occur in the processing and flow. It's as if they decided not to make the series this good, let's make it a little worse, let's make it cheaper. For example; Although the character Jiang could have killed the character Jia Quan with a knife in his hand when there was no one around, he does not, but he is in prison, easily captured, and tries to kill him and is killed. It was so ridiculous and simple. Similarly, why does Jia character's assistant, Zuo character, run away and get killed when he could have killed this person hundreds of times? Illogical. He knows everything about the man, and if he tries to do anything bad to him, he will kill the man from thirst. He escapes and is killed when he could have been eliminated so easily. It has zero credibility. If the princess is going to kill herself, why does she bring the character Sima there as a witness? So that he could testify and destroy them? It was an irrational approach. The scriptwriter is literally unconscious, so did he have a hard time writing these, did he make mistakes, did he do things that are thousands of miles away from believability. Doesn't a person read what he writes, and doesn't the person who filmed it say that if you fix this, it doesn't look appropriate at all? They didn't say. Why was there a showdown in the presence of the queen? It's not understandable. According to the story, if the character Jiang was not returning, Pan Yue should have gone looking for him. She had to save him, or if he couldn't, he could have tried to kill the Marshal. Or he could report him to the authorities. Supposedly you need a notebook. They didn't take the notebook while they had it, so while that person was identified at the academy, the man runs away. How does he escape? If you had made a raid as soon as you found out about the incident, you could have obtained everything, including the notebook. The person takes that notebook and brings it to the capital. Pan Yue, who has authority and men in his hands, does nothing. I don't know what his father is. Some help, some don't. It is impossible to understand how difficult it was to prove it. While everything was against the man, there was no proof every time. What a queen. Is there no king? Isn't there a Minister of Justice? The marshal will be given army authority and many royal decorations will be given, there is no king, there is a queen. It hasn't happened before. Afterwards, for some unknown reason, Jiang's body is brought to the place, and through the holes he opened, Cai Wei and Pan Yue with his excellent talent say, "Here is the place of the notebook." Unbelievable. It's a shame for the beautiful series. Screenwriter, I especially hated you. In all TV series, your incompetence in concluding events frustrates and frustrates the audience. Their beginnings were good, but their endings were terrible. He was wrong. It was simple. It hadn't happened. I felt sad while watching it.

matchmaker couple

It was a simple but nice series. I smiled while watching. A humorous series about those who mediate between families and between boys and girls in marriages. There's a mystery stuck in between. In other words, the head of a noble family's house is a minister. The death events in that minister's family are also reflected in a mysterious way. The sprouting of love between a widowed man and a widowed woman acting as a mediator and the possibility of them getting married like others are also discussed. Although this couple loves each other, the solution that the King found for them because of the obstacles to their marriage due to customs and traditions is also explained. Events develop a little funny and a little dramatic. However, do not keep your expectations high as the series is oversimplified. A delight, a series that puts a smile on your face. There is nothing more. I started watching the actors especially for RoWoon. He was an actor I liked. I looked at the actress Choi Yi Hyun a little coldly until my eyes adjusted. However, as the episodes progressed, my eyes got used to it. He played well and exceeded my expectations. Even though their height gap is so wide, they make a good couple. The other actors were also very good. I liked them all. Especially Jo Han Chul, who played the king, was both very cute and very successful. enjoy watching...

Friendship and sacrifice

It was a very good series. I watched it with love, curiosity and excitement. I laughed at some parts. I felt sad in some parts. I got emotional. Especially in the last chapters and the deaths of the heroes. Of course, there were places where I got angry. Places I don't like. There were also places where I thought it wouldn't happen. By the way, let me say; Especially Yuan Lu, who has a heart disease, fights and swings his sword in a very healthy way. On top of that, he traveled 480 kilometers on horseback and on foot, trying to report news. It wasn't believable at all. If a person with heart disease had waved a sword, held a shield, shot an arrow, fought, or killed a man for 5-10 minutes, let alone the hour, he too would have to die in that hour. I'm not a doctor, but he can't do this level of action. He cannot travel for hours on horseback. He cannot run the remaining 80 kilometers. Such a thing is not possible. I've surpassed reality, you can't even do it in your dreams. To that degree. I find the scriptwriter very wrong here. I still gave it a very good grade. I gave it to the whole series. Elements such as friendship, patriotism and self-sacrifice are emphasized, and it is underlined that those who wrote heroic epics should not be forgotten. It was explained that commanders and rulers should strive to keep those under their command alive instead of killing them, and that therefore even wars should be aimed at peace. I get it in that way. I understood from the descriptions of people feeling sorry for those who died and angry at those who caused them to be killed. Of course, in addition to their sacrifices, warriors and fighters, their private lives, loves, sorrows, joys and jokes are also reflected. I found it good. Especially the actors were very good. Direction and visuals were great. The activation scenes were near perfect. It was worked very meticulously. Attentive. Congratulations. One mistake was that all the heroes died. There was no happy ending. It ended sadly.
Our leads were very good. Liu Shi Shi is an actor who is especially suitable for roles such as assassin and undercover officer, this role suits him very well. I like. Likewise, Liu Yu Ning filled the role with her tall physique. I tell him to be careful, he is very overweight despite his paint pulp. If he gets more, he will be in fat roles. Alen Fang also got used to these humorous boy roles well. It made us smile. It was great. In He Lan Dou, he turned out to be an actor with the ability to add a role to his role. I liked this girl very much. I've watched a few more TV series. A different understanding of roles in each series. Mastering the role and doing what is required. He has made great progress. Chen You Wei was also humorous and lively. He fit the role very well. He was a hero with heart disease. He did his role very well. He added value to his role. Congratulations. I also liked Chang Hua Sen. I'm watching it for the first time. It will be better. I liked the actor who played the King of Moment with his different playing style. He added value to his role. I like this type of players more. I recommend it to those who haven't watched it. Watch. You will be satisfied.

A dream from start to finish

It was a good series. I watched it with pleasure. Of course, even if there were minor mistakes or things that were far from reality, they were forgivable. It didn't stand out. To me, it was Zhou Ye's performance show. It was really successful. It was as if he wasn't playing, he was living. Such realistic fluency. Acting that never reveals anything. It suits me too. It suits the role too. It's nice too. Everything was perfect. He's now one of my favorite players. Wang Xing Yue is a very young actor. The role was a heavy one for him. In other words, it was a personality role that had to look heavy, that appeared above everyone else. He looked older than he really was. I felt it. Is this kid 19 years old? made me say. In my opinion, they were a bit inexperienced. Or the players he played with were dominant. You would definitely be crushed in the face of a perfectionist like Zhou Ye. I felt so. Because he is a rookie lead among so many valuable actors. It's too much for this player. My opinion. But there is no grin in the overall game. As I said, he is older than he is, and the director handled the situation well. I also liked Zhang Yi Jie. Well done. He was also very good in the activation scenes. I also watched Ai Mi in many dramas. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but they're always in maid roles. Let her know that being a servant will stick to her. A very good leading role can be achieved with slightly different roles. He is very young. The child comes from acting. He is considered experienced. Her face is very beautiful and clear. Clean. I found it suitable for the lead role. Cevval can play characters. Can be tried in dominant character roles. It is announced to the directors and screenwriters. The veteran players were very, very good. Princesshood suits Xu Fan very well. We also witnessed the beauty and good acting of our famous leading actors who were included in the last episodes, albeit for a short time. It was a good show. Our series was just a dream. When we came to the end, we understood. At first I experienced confusion in my mind. Then, I was as surprised as our dreaming daughter by what was said. Finally I faced the truth. I understand It seemed interesting. So are the explanations. What a scent does. However, I didn't like the ending. It looked like there would be a sequel. Or it surprised us. It was said, "Imagine what happens next." Such an ending. The truth is very sad. His parents and siblings were all executed. Their servants were beaten to death. He created a non-existent character that he can only trust, and he messed around with him, even if it was a dream, and ultimately he accepts the truth. He is together with his savior who saved him. I guess this is the ending I understand.

Scriptwriter

The series is finally over. It was one of the most flawed and wrong scripts of the TV series I've watched recently. I mentioned this frequently in my comments. But I watched it until the end. It ended well. It's all over. Those who made mistakes, those who did wrong, and the traitors were punished. Of course, Li Ni became emperor, but since he did not want to be, he left the throne to the son of the previous Crown Princess, even though he was his son. This is not a very common behavior. If I were emperor and I had a son, I would leave the empire to my son. This is normal. However, there was a show of heroism here, an event rarely seen in history, and the throne was left to one of the grandsons of the previous emperor. Let's call this a utopia. It could be. Because empire is not a job that can be done very well. It may be better to stay in a more comfortable area. Li Ni preferred this. In fact, according to the role assigned by the scriptwriter, he became responsible for the security of the border. Sounds like a simple job? Does he sleep until the evening? It's nothing like that. But he was shown as living like a commoner. They are happy. I guess this is what is meant.
The scriptwriter may have made mistakes in editing. He may not have been able to make the desired transitions and mannerisms correctly, but he was successful in love games. He painted a beautiful image of love. Although the sickly stepchild had a lot of love. He also helped in the last moment, but apart from these, the love between Li Ni and Cui Lin was handled well. The love between Taozi and Chang Er was also depicted very humorously and sincerely. In that respect, I congratulate the screenwriter. I think he should write scripts for Romance TV series. He should never engage in TV series that involve such strategic, game, cheating, political, or activation activities. Don't say that my series was watched well or got ratings or anything like that. Not because of him. Let him pray for the actors and the director. The cast was very good. The actors played incredibly well. Let's not violate their rights. Our director was excellent. The scene where Gu Wan Niang wandered around the city and said "I am the Crown Princess" in the last scenes, out of her mind, was very, very good. Our actress, Jia Min, did this beautifully, just as she portrayed the traitor under her pure, innocent beauty. I wouldn't expect it from him. I say well done. I show him as one of the best in the series. I want to see him as the lead. It is announced to the directors.
As for the script, as I said, it was below par. I got very angry while watching it. Although the series should have been rated 8-9, I gave it a lower score for that reason.

Series with no connection to its name

It was a series that started well at the beginning but became ridiculous in the last episodes. I endured 37 episodes. I couldn't watch the rest. The bad guys will definitely be punished, the injustices will be corrected, I can see and feel that. However, in the last episodes, the story got out of hand with unbearable logical errors and stupid software. It got to a point where the wrong guys became right, they hang and cut them up, the empress and other authorized people who see this are watching. That person, Lao Zhi, can't do anything. The queen who hangs and cuts everyone in front of her, gives a penalty times her salary when Lao Zhi makes a mistake and needs to be punished, is that good? I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I've never seen such nonsense in any series. The man continues his evil deeds. The queen knows it, everyone knows it. The queen doesn't come to the court, but gives the authority to punish and reward Lao Zhi, who doesn't do his job well, who constantly makes mistakes and needs to be punished. She gives authority. Instead of giving punishment, she gives authority. What does this mean? The audience is stupid and eats it up. Or the writer thinks we are fools. Can such a stupid thing happen? Second; there is the Princess, the Prime Minister. But he gives authority to a lower level and unwanted person who does not do his job well, constantly makes mistakes, and even believes that all evil comes from him. Oh my God! The Queen is blind, deaf, does not know what she is saying. Such a character. But the scriptwriter shows us her as a very smart person who runs the country. In fact, she works day and night for her country. Her son is very young. She is acting as his regent. She is shown as a good person. Is it a LIE, scriptwriter? What is this contradiction? Why are you taking us for fools? Do you have a problem? Are you crazy? Why are you spoiling the story? Why are you showing a bad person above everything and disregarding the others, even the Queen. Let's say this Lai Zhi wants to overthrow the Queen and her. She doesn't care. Why am I saying this? The Queen orders the arrest. Let alone arresting that person, Lai Zhi kills him. The Queen goes crazy. How can you kill him? He says I didn't give such an order. Sir, punish him. He says I deserved it. He says I cut his salary. What century are we in, scriptwriter? Are you kidding me? Are you selling bagels? Are you okay? Are you nice? Are you free? Go away. Don't get on our nerves. Shame on you. I condemn it. I don't recommend it to anyone. Don't get on your nerves. Don't watch it. I also gave these 6 notes to the actors. I liked the actors. They weren't extraordinary, but they were beautiful. Our daughter Ancy Deng was born in 2005, but well done, she has been playing the leading role since she was 15. She mixed her childish actions with her youthful actions while playing, but I think she will be better. So I support her. She will be a good actress. They were compatible with Ding Yu Xi. Zi Jun was very successful in the role of the bad guy. It suits her. Let her play the bad guy. Xiao Yan was good, I was surprised that she played such a role, but it was a supporting role and a light role. The actress who played the princess, Mao Lin Lin, Queen He Sai Fei, Xuan Lu, Sun Ze Yuan, Ethan Yao, Pan Lu Yu, Gao Ji Cai were the actors who caught my attention. I gave this note for the effort of the actors. I give zero marks to the writer and the script.

A drama full of contradictions

I couldn't stand it anymore and I left the series until the last episode. I got cramps in my stomach. Such a disgraceful scenario cannot happen. It shouldn't be. The story is well thought out. One of the royal princes whose fathers passed away, who was named as the new emperor with the word of their fathers, could not get the throne he deserved, and on top of that, the same person used his royal position to get the daughter he loved, and therefore the lovers could not be together, the pains, heartbreaks, resentments, anger, betrayals, revenges, etc. Becoming a heroic soldier and general to show yourself beyond. Dreams of establishing a throne in the eyes of the nation, ultimately leading to the regency, but again conflicts, traps, betrayals, desires for revenge. Pain, not being able to meet, being in the shadow of this. It's a great idea, millions of scenes could be shot on this. But unfortunately our scriptwriter ruined the series. If a person does not have any ideas, dhikr, decisions, thoughts or logic, what is the use of saying he is writing a script? Logical errors throughout. Shaky transitions, show-offs, crazy logic. For example, I can't say that I love him. As a result, the disgrace of enduring this never ended. Someone's snitching, talking behind their back, back and forth statements, traps. Even though these are known, they do not speak out. Don't say it to your face. Don't use each other. Give the same boring things over and over again. It didn't happen. In the end, the queen mother, who was supposedly unable to reunite with her beloved, finds a thousand excuses not to reunite her son with his beloved. He says it's in the interest of the country. While she was getting married, the emperor said, "You can't say no to her, it won't end well, you'll both be beheaded, even seven of your dynasties will be killed." Now they want the girl the Emperor loves for someone else, or rather for his brother, the prince, for whom everything they eat and drink does not go well. But they cannot tell each other. They love the same girl. My brother Emperor, he was brought to the palace for me. He can't say how you can hit on that girl. On top of that, the emperor's very good friend, the prince, wants the girl through his mother. She's making herself a fiancée. The Emperor cannot do anything. He's watching. Because his mother made a promise to another imperial princess. He promised again for that brother to marry, too. He gives his word knowingly. The prince's mother says they love each other, but if they don't, why should I tell you this? However, that girl is unaware of these events. The girl is never asked. The Emperor is tearing himself apart. He says, "I will marry this girl." His mother says No. Well, you encountered the same situation, you could not reunite with your loved one. When I asked if this could be done, yes, I was very upset. I experienced pain. He says imperial interests come first. It makes you want to tear your hair out. Also, why can't the emperor tell his dear friend, brother, I love this girl, we even love each other? You saw it here, if it was your acquaintance, wouldn't it be possible if he said "no, but no, we love each other". Why does such a scenario occur? And the man is the emperor. How can one say that the girl he wants won't happen? It is also served to a prince. It's not something that makes sense. It is not appropriate for the time. It is not appropriate for the command and domination of an emperor. What the emperor says requires absolute obedience. If you don't obey, you die. In this situation, that prince brother infuriates the emperor by telling events about the girl as if he were kidding. It's not going to happen. What a pity. In other words, the writer, the screenwriter, or rather, has a contradiction within himself. There are hundreds of other incidents in the same way, where people are wrong, have contradictory ideas, and do not keep what they say. There are at least a hundred in 50 episodes. It's a shame for the series, the idea is good but the scripting is terrible. I got angry while watching it. It's a shame for the players. I had ideas about them. I don't even have the words to say them. The director did his part, I guess they told him to shoot it like this, so he shot it that way. It was very good. A series of nine became series of six. I say disgrace. I don't recommend it to anyone. I was disturbed while watching, I don't want anyone to be disturbed. Do not even think about it!

Lack of reason overshadows credibility.

It's a good series to watch overall. I congratulate the production team and director, except for the scriptwriter. Particular attention was paid to the clothes, I congratulate this team twice. Other than that, the script had too much nonsense. First of all, it was not believable that our Badukçu Girl went to take revenge on the king with the same face and the same clothes. Even though the king said he would kill you, he did not. Afterwards, I had to punish you, and after a certain period of time, he sent his guards and asked them to save him. However, for some reason, this happened right at the time he was going to be killed. Badukçu fell off the cliff. The baduk maker's own servants find him and save him. This is also very interesting, you are there at this exact moment and are rescued. Then this girl of ours comes for revenge, wearing the same clothes and the same face, and appears before the king. He's making plans to kill her. Do you think it's believable? I think no. Nobody understood why this screenwriter did this. In addition, those who betrayed were rewarded instead of being killed. It was ridiculous. Our lead girl could neither be a man nor a woman. Caught between two games. His acting was next to nothing. So it wasn't there. It was just an empty image. However, Jo Jung Suk performed phenomenally. He may have been crushed under it. I don't know, but I didn't like the actress. Apart from the male lead, Choi Dae Hoon who plays the King, Park Ye Young who plays Lady Gong, Queen Mother Jang Young Nam, Hyun Bo. Yang Kyung Won, Lee Kyu Hoe who played the Prime Minister, Guard Kang Hong Suk, and Child Prince Choi Ye Chan were good actors that caught my eye. Apart from the script, it was a successful production. The scriptwriter has done a shame on the series. I couldn't feel the love in the series, I couldn't get the emotion. It's actually a love story, but it doesn't seem to have happened. Looks like it had a happy ending...

Soul Transformation

The series started well. I expected a soul transformation in the first few episodes. It happened then. But it didn't continue. The series suddenly fell into a void, slowed down. It strayed from its subject. Things started happening that we didn't understand. It seemed a bit complicated. This stagnation continued until the last two episodes.

Was it a revenge series? Was it a series about a soul transformation and its consequences? Both were done together, but because it deviated from the spirit of the story, neither was fully realized or reflected. That's the kind of series I watched. If we look at it as a revenge series, the LEFT MINISTER in the series is indeed justified in wanting revenge. However, is it right to kill so many people and get involved in crime for the sake of a woman he loves? That's debatable. I don't think so. He became a tyrant. He became a murderer. He became a traitor. While he was a flower of love, he suddenly turned into a cruel tyrant. I think he wouldn't have done these things if he loved her. Because from the beginning, he doesn't have a feeling of revenge against the king. The king takes the woman he loves from him and marries her. However, when rumors spread about him and he is condemned to death, the Left Minister opposes the killing of the woman he loves. He sees that the king doesn't love the woman, but loves his throne. Then he takes revenge. He takes the throne from him. He kidnaps the woman, claiming he killed her. While this is somewhat true up to this point, his subsequent threats against the other king, the killing of many lives, his tyranny, smuggling, treachery, and many other crimes cannot be reconciled with love and revenge. I also couldn't understand the logic of him wanting to marry his daughter to the crown prince. He had the opportunity; he could have become king. Instead of being the king's father-in-law, he should have become king. There's a contradiction here.

The body-swapping started and ended. The role changes in the body-swappings made us laugh and entertained us. But sometimes I found nothing to enjoy. At one point, the series slowed down. They went into extra time. There were the Zen bird absurdities. In the final episodes, they even experienced soul-swapping while dying. That became a bit too fantastical. I think the series failed to deliver what the audience wanted. It was incomplete, flawed. I liked the actors, except for the King. Even at the beginning, I couldn't reconcile the actions of the Left Minister's daughter with the actress cast in that role. The villainous role didn't suit Hong Su Zu.She improved later; she became angelic, a good character. She fit the role perfectly. My rating for this series is 7.5.
