No LEGEND??just a mediocre story.......

​The story begins with the Battle of Mingsui. The blame for its defeat is pinned on the Male Lead's (ML) father. Determined to clear his father's name, the ML sets out on a journey to unravel the conspiracy behind the loss. Meanwhile, the Female Lead (FL), a masked general impersonating her brother, suffers betrayal and is sentenced to death. However, life gives her a second chance to prove herself and reclaim what was rightfully hers. Did the ML avenge his father's death????Did the FL get what she deserved????


​*ML and FL did have a couple of sweet moments, yet something was missing. Though their love story was not very convincing, I really liked how the FL proposed to the ML: "I love the moon but the moon doesn't know."

*​Second ML's character was okay till episode 33, then his character development went downhill.

​*The FL's brother as a villain had potential but was just wasted. His inferiority complex and foolish plots did not add any spice.

*​The Prime Minister, who is supposedly very intelligent, takes absurd decisions at the end and gets caught.

*​The rest of the characters were like add-ons; none stayed in my head.

​*It would have been better if the story ended at episode 33; the final episodes took the story totally off-track.

*​The story had very few scenes about how the FL disguised as a man became the great General Feihong and about her relationship with her eight comrades. Also, her early life and hardships weren't explained thoroughly.

​*This show did talk about concepts like how females should be given the freedom to do what they like and pursue a career of their own. The idea was good but could have been portrayed better.



OVERALL THE STORY DIDNT LIVE UP TO IT'S TITLE.....🫠🫠🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️
