It's a romance first and foremost

Background plot - Pretty good
Romantic chemistry - Excellent
Misc comedy -Good
Production value- Pretty good
Direction -Mixed bag
If you're looking for a war or historical epic, this isn't it. It isn't an epic at all, but rather a straight-forward romance. It's too bad, because it probably could have been an epic if they'd used the same director as 'The Double' or 'Fangs of Fortune,' or someone similar.
The fight scenes were directed quite well, however.
Now, if you're looking for a good historical romance, this is quite good. The chemistry between the leads is excellent and was consistently the only reason I kept watching. Since I watch CDramas for the romance, this bumps up my rating from a 7.5 to an 8.5 (because the romance / chemistry was THAT good).
Overall, watch if you love romantic CDramas. Skip if you don't.
