Plot: The series revolves around a man who was betrayed along with his father, family and fellow soldiers by ambitious men both equal and superior in status. Our lead suffered greatly and as a result he was away for a very long time. The series starts off by showing his reentry into the world that wants betrayed him and his effort to seek revenge and clear his family‘s name.
It should be noted the series is predominately about revenge and revealing the wrong that has been done. There is a significant amount of brotherhood and loyalty shown within the series which made it more pleasant.
You will see the normal power-hungry royals and those people who will stop at nothing to please them and maintain their sense of value.
Message: Although it was revenge driven, I do believe that there was a significant message within the series one in which I believe that we can all relate to it in terms of admitting mistakes.
What I liked about the series was that it it had action as well as an intense amount of intellectual plotting. The young male guard was fun to watch.
Well I just like about this series with that it was extremely slow. The people tops slow. They walk slow. They argue slow and they plotted slowly. Everything just seemed so slow. I also feel that it was dragged on way too long. Although there are many significant moments that happened near me and it just felt draggy. Once the major event happened/big reveal happened the show kept going. That being said the last two episodes really added no value to the series. Nothing changed it was really anti-climatic and the ending was just blah.
I actually feel weird saying this but I really did not like our male lead. He did so many things and used people to obtain his goal but he is suppose to be good. He seriously used and betrayed someone who thought that he was a good friend.
On another note, I felt there were loop wholes. How he got to where he was. He just was.
Action: Some
Plotting: endless
Politics: yes
Romance: none present
Good acting: yes
Brotherhood: yes
Betrayal: YES
Karma: slow but yes
Suspense: sort of but not really.
Rewatch for me: nope, too long and slow.

I enjoy the scenes that reveal their closeness in their actual love and loyalty to each other with her at home or on the battlefield. It was really cool to see a strong female lead with skills like hers. I enjoyed her brothers and her friends and how the female lead had such a kind heart. It was actually refreshing. Overall I enjoyed the series. Would I watch it again? Probably not.
What I did not like about the series was that it was nonsensical to me. What I mean by that is after a major event happened we as a viewers witness something that the average person would not tolerate. But what we see is a person that is motivated by love to except a circumstance that many would not except. For me it just seem to shout that love replaces dignity. I really didn’t enjoy that hard at all.

Let me start off with the good. First of all the series is very entertaining. It has some great fight scenes and the female lead is amazing. She is a strong, bold, smart and cute. I may only play their role perfectly both A’s good guys and bad guys when they need to. Let me start up with the good. Episode 1-24 : The overall plot seems to come together really well and you really get a good vibe. I honestly watched most of the series and found it captivating enough to watch many episodes in one day. What I did not like about the series was the love triangle. That’s right I don’t like love triangles. I know what you’re thinking. The love triangles make the shows a bit more entertaining but for me there’s a certain level or size of a triangle that I can tolerate. What I didn’t like about this was that she seem to be indecisive. One minute you think that she really loves one of them and then the next minute she seems to be swooning or longing for the other one. That is where I somewhat lost interest. It wasn’t the love triangle it’s self it was that she seem to be one of the corners. I think I could have enjoyed it more if she actually made a decision but it does seem like she just went where are the chips fell for 24 episodes.
Female Lead spends 90% of time with male lead that loves her but she appears to love the other. I’m at episode 24 and she still not honestly with either one. I think that’s why the rating is low. We love a good romance with other love interest but this is to far for me. Engaged to one, marry the other then what—> love the other.

1) the FL is popular, yes but the role just didn’t seem natural
2) her flirting in the beginning was overly cringy
3)didn’t like part of the plot, she was suppose to be a good person but she purposely used and deceived the one person who cared about her. It would have been better if he knew and they worked together.
4) I couldn’t find a character other than the ML that seemed respectable.
5) hidden identity troupe is overly play in to many dramas.
What I did like? the acting was ok.
Will I rewatch? No
Chemistry? I guess but it was weird.

Beginning to end was exciting, interesting, sweet and everything in between. Two people with their own struggles overcoming old pain and defeating the very thing that held them or hurt them. It was perfect. Not overly dramatic, not cliche. I truly wished there were more episodes but I am so pleased with it as well as the ending.
You will get
Romance
Mystery
Action
Karma
Love

Series revolves around a female who is fighting for good and a male lead who was misunderstood, though not too long.
What I like: it’s consistently eventful, the plot develops well, their is some great character development reveals, the relationship between the leads was nice and the fight scenes are great.
What I didn’t like: after a while it got tiring, the leads had a good relationship but lacked chemistry. Bad guys seems to have the upper hand most of the time. The relationship between the leads felt more like close friends than lovers or a married couple. In truth it just felt like it was missing sincerity. Although the acting was good, it just felt like a well rehearsed script verse the person embodying the script.

It was entertaining to watch. While this is tagged as a romantic comedy, I think it would be safe to safe the romance part is absent. To be fair, the series was okay. I really enjoyed the scenes with th e child in it. He was cute, smart and funny. The scenes with him and his dad were even more cute. I love the natural feel of their relationship. What I liked most was the awareness the child possessed and how he expressed himself. I also really enjoyed the ML assistant. He was smart, definitely attentive and absolutely comical. You’ll enjoy the laughs.What I disliked was the FL character for half of the series. We spend the majority of the series with her pushing the male lead away, asking him to disappear and etc. although you get a few scenes with her being less difficult. To ellaborate, she told a lie and didn’t explain when others found out. I simply dislike her disregarding the child’s father like he was insignificant to the child life. Although things got better this was a major downside for me. This is the second series I’ve watched with the 2 leads and sadly, he was pursuing her in the other one too. Again, she was initially argumentative, often unreasonable and difficult.
I loved the family dynamic of the series. The child gave the series life. He was cute, smart and funny. The ML character was funny and caring. The father and son together gave me giggles I want expecting. I have to say, out of all the love child drama this has to be one of the better ones. There were no overly dramatic issues. There was a good blend of romance, comedy, cuteness, drama and karma with a good ending, Definitely enjoyable.

Sweetness
Series revolves around a girl with an ability and her desire to free herself from the confines of the world she was caged in. How she was raised to use it versus how she chose to use it was absolutely beautiful.I really enjoyed this. It starts off with a really good pace and it continued to develop in a way that allows the characters grow. There were very few moments where I felt the need to fast forward. I absolutely enjoyed watching the lead interact as well as how their relationships develop. Although it is fictional the progression of the relationship and the realistic elements of it were relatable.
This one kept me on my toes. The way the FL interacted with others and how she blossomed into her person was amazing. I loved how she became someone that everyone loved.
There was action, romance, comedy, drama and some heartfelt moments. Chemistry was very present along with my beloved happy ending.
Definitely a rewatch.

Definite must watch
I loved it. I smiled. I laughed. I loved how they displayed emphasis on the service industry and how hard these people have to work to keep a job in addition the little politics at play. It was a good balance of everything. I enjoyed the relationship between the leads. They had really great chemistry and the acting of the grandma was so amazing. No excessive drama. No psycho people. No stupid love triangle’s. No ridiculous break ups.The cast did an amazing job. I honestly liked them all. Of course there was an antagonist but you’ll get a clear idea why. Yes there was a little plotting but I can finally say in this series that the little traps, mishaps passed like wind.

A bittersweet series
So many emotions were flowing after watching this series. Loved the wardrobe, scenery, the cast, the acting and the pacing. You get the typical drama in terms of palace rules and etc but what makes this one different is that the FL unlike most we’ve seen in historical dramas didn’t want any part of the palace haram. While other would pa she preferred freedom. What I liked most about this series was the ML acting the acting. It was amazing. ML definitely has some skills. Although the chemistry wasn’t magnified I believed that his acting made what chemistry existed wake up a bit.What I disliked about the series has nothing to o with quality and everything to do with my genre preferences. I didn’t like that it was a bit sad. I also disliked the FL persistence to resist her own feelings so much. After a while I got annoying. This went on for 90% of the drama. We only got a few happy episodes near the en and then not so much.
I would say that is was a bittersweet series. It’s worth the watch but if you’re into a smiles and happy ever after proceed with caution.

What I like was that the actors were amazing, the setting and focus. What I disliked was that it was a bit long. I also felt the ending was a big chop which was like someone changed the channel at the last few moments. Just wasn’t fulfilling for me.

So cute
This was short, sweet and really warm. I’ve watched so many dramas that was fluffed with crazy things but this was a light hearted delight. No extreme misunderstandings. No weird triangles, events or crazy breakups.I loved, loved, loved the communication between the couple. It was clear, direct, honest and productive. The series had a someone youthful feel to it but the relationship itself felt very mature.
I highly recommend this if your looking for a short, sweet and cute romance.

They change the initial female lead due to script saying she change her appearance. First of all, there are so many shows that have characters change their appearance but actually keep their same face.
Our initial female lead is clearly a new young actress but appears to be a superb actress who did an amazing job portraying herself as a princess in every aspect. Her demeanor, appearance, character, communication and expression were flawless. I know whatever she stars in she’ll be great. .
Now to the review:
The show starts out at a really decent pace. Episode one was full of mystery and action but by episode two things somewhat slow down quite a bit and it becomes somewhat slow. What I like most so far about this series is that it appears to be about loyalty, and friendship and love. The character development was good.
WhatI did not like about the series is that at times it can be a bit slow and sometimes the male lead was just too suggestive. Fights scenes were unimpressive. The ending was cliff hanger and didn’t make sense.
If you’re looking for romantic comedy this is not it.
if you were looking for a historical drama you may like this one.
If you’re looking for a happily ever after you may not want to watch it although it is not awful.
If you’re looking for something overly romantic I don’t know what to tell you.
Overall decent show. Not a rewatch for me though.

The set up and plot were enough to make you binge watch it. I like how things played out however I was a bit thrown off by the express growth of feeling, like out of the blue, that area was not fully developed. But it’s still worth the watch.
What I liked most was that our leads didn’t have extreme drama and overly complicated situations.
