Takes my breath away - and the fact a true story. Appalled only in the time it took for the police and parents to change the administration. In most places, one newspaper leak would cause a flood of overseers and interveners and lawyers.

Your comment - spot on. This drama soars above most romantic dramas and never disappoints the viewer. The female lead - determined and strong and representative of her educational accomplishments. The male lead - loving, dedicated and exceptional in loyalty. Not once do you feel a drag - what you want is more and more. You are so right -- I wish cliche dramas had a TAG -- so we could avoid them. Gave it 9.5 (just wished 2nd leads romance was more detailed).

Enjoyable and would have given a higher than 8.5 rating if there were not so many unfinished feelings in me and questions that I asked. Wanted a longer movie for resolution of crimes and consequences. This was a unique story and Yoo Ah In bought his A-game for this production. Definitely recommend watching.

I actually went to this cite to make the same comment. Torture is an understatement. Give me at least 2 episodes at a time. I am a binge watcher usually and when I find a good drama that is ongoing I at least want it to conclude within one month or so. But 68 days -- drip drip drip. I getting ready to put it on hold until end of February.

Just finished - acting and writing is award winning. Best K drama I have watched in past 2 years. Highly recommend (I had almost given up on K dramas).

Started binge-watching and once got past episode 30 I found myself invested in a circuitous merry-go-round asking myself why I didn't take the comments of previous viewers seriously. Too many episodes for a story that can be told in less than 20 episodes or a 90-minute movie. Unfortunately all the "surprise revelations" were predictable and the torture of health problems on top of additional health problems on top of health problems became mundane. Advise you to read the comments before wasting your time or at least fast-forwarding to the end after a few initial episodes.

Thanks, there are at least five dramas on your list I have not seen and will explore. Recently, I truly liked My Husband-in-Law and Hua Jai Sila. Will create a list for binge-watching periods on weekends,

I just finished as well - last night at about 2 am in morning. This was one of the best Lakorns I have found recently. Yes, the FL was the only weak character - I always wonder why writers get pleasure of portraying women as mindless yet devoted to the point of self destruction. Overall I gave it 9.5. Wish I could find more recent well written Thai dramas. Any recommendations.

A Netflix "find" and a good one. A beautiful story that focuses on family relationships and personal goals. The writer did an excellent job giving the ML a life worthy of analysis and contradictions but the viewer enjoys the fluid telling of the story to a natural conclusion. Visually pleasing and realistic - worth your movie time.

100% agreement

Thanks - I'm taking notes and researching along the way -- will read after episode 50. Much appreciated.

Only on 44 - not a spoiler - just a line -- "Have her majesty stamp on them" I almost fell out of my chair with excitement. This drama is the essence of perfection. I am addicted to the point I almost did not cook Christmas dinner watching it - burned up two dishes while immersed in this story. I am envious of anyone who has finished all 78 episodes. This masterpiece gets better and better every episode. Intrigue, deception, and conniving can be said to be three understated words for this drama.

No nonsense story of human relations and consequential family adversities. The writer did an excellent job weaving the dynamics of the stories of multiple characters. Loved this drama - only wish the FL was not cast as a "sex worker". There are millions of professions she could have had to make this story interesting.

Thanks I will try to catch up and join any conversations by comment and queries. The comments on most of the historical dramas are great explanations and help with a tutorial perspective along the way.

Thanks, didn't know I wasn't the only one with this complaint. Try not to read too many comments since I am way behind in episodes and wanted my own impressions since I love historical dramas. Lots of people get disappointed and discourage the average viewer...especially since little romance evident early in this historical depiction.

I'm late - just getting started and "epic" is an understatement. Binge watched thru episode 12 and now I am researching history resources while watching this drama. I understand that there are 78 episodes that will be cast. I don't understand the reasoning for the director to cast everyone as OLD MEN. A 13-year-old newly crown king shouldn't be a 40 year old actor this is my only complaint. Little eye candy female and male -- this is when you wish Vin Zhang reprises his role.

Saw Love and Redemption twice i liked it so much. Sleepless Princess .. very good and creative story telling. Also General's Lady was good. Just finished Begin Again and the Best of you in my mind. Really loving my Chinese dramas

Live for the new ones. Just finished The Legend of Xiao Chou.. good but could have had a better ending. Started the Wolf. Watching Twisted Fate of Live and will start binge watching Qin Dynasty Friday night. So many dramas .. not enough of me to watch. Enjoy. If any recommendations please share. Pam

I started in 2014 and since I was retired it was a great hobby. Watching lots of historical pieces and catching up on all the top ones from the past. Even watched some Korean Movie Classics on YouTube. I started fading away because the stories became predictable, repetitive and the maturer actors seemed to be losing roles to younger inexperienced actors. Enjoying Chinese dramas more right now but that will be a phase as well.

Just finished (watched weekly) and I must say - a very good drama and cute to boot Probably a better binge drama because episodes are often uneven in quality -- but in the end -- well worth every minute. A must watch- especially for bingers. And yes the OST's are perfectly in tune and aligned with the scenes of this drama.
