A Fantastic Epic Series
This was such an enjoyable series from start to finish. We're taken on an epic journey of the Kang family, past & present. It's just a marvelously well written & well acted ... extraordinarily well acted drama!!
To me, the tone of the series changes from a comedic/drama in the early episodes to a more serious tone later on, especially from episode 11 through the end of 16.
The three protagonists give such a great performance throughout. Do Hwan is over the top brilliant in every scene as Han Su. He really can do it all, make you laugh, make you cry & scream with rage. He & Bo Na have such a perfect chemistry together, no matter what the outcome looked like, you knew they would end up together at the very end. There is just no way around it.
Hak Yeon changes his character as the series progresses, and definitely for the better. He shows us several different sides of Ji Sun and does a great job at it. It was another great acting performance in this trio. I was not a fan of this character early on, but that changes a good way through the series.
Kyu Sung is brilliant as Han Su's side kick. He added so much to whatever situation, whether it was dramatic or comedic, he was perfectly placed.
I think the only negative thing I can say about the series was the anticlimactic way Yoo Je Se was dealt with toward the end. He was without a doubt the biggest antagonist thought the story, causing so much pain and suffering to others. You really wanted to see this character suffer a bit more than he actually did. It was satisfying to a degree on his outcome, but I think it could have been so much more.
The way this eventually ends up is pretty much a happy ending for all. It shows a real positive future for the people in 1485.
Extremely enjoyable & definitely a must watch!!!
