Tried to potrait good quality in main character as compared to real story. And succeed
After watching the ending, I was very curious to know the actual story because I was not satisfied with how the drama concluded. I read Jang Ok Jung's real story from two or three sources.
In reality, she was a humble and kind person until the king noticed her. However, to keep everyone under her control, she crossed every limit. Her behavior stemmed from being constantly insulted for her low status. Eventually, she was ordered to take poison, and the king's affection for her faded completely.
In the drama, they changed her story by showing that the king's affection for her never diminished.
I didn't like this ending. Though I felt sympathy for her in the drama, knowing her real-life actions made me believe that the punishment she received was deserved.
I watched this drama only because of the male lead, and he truly nailed the role. His performance was absolutely amazing!
