Please Is the fl get confused about who she loves , or love triangle just from one side? And what episode she…
No, she is not confused about who she loves. Her choice is between the one man she loves and the thing she feels she must do. I'm sorry but I don't remember which episode she starts falling in love exactly.
this is typical korean "historical" romance, where nothing is historical except cosplay clothes. queen can't just…
It just did not resonate with you. Why continue to the last episode and not drop it? Life's too short. We are watching these things to be told stories, not to have our expectations of what should happen perfectly met. If we don't like one story, we really don't need to suffer through it.
What a lovely drama. It had everything. Likeable characters, especially the ml who was not afraid to be vulnerable but could also throw a mean punch when necessary, badass lady assassins and ladies in general, fancy action, stakes, actually fun child actors, politicking, actually funny humour, pretty music. Very enjoyable overall. I'm not a huge fan of secrets and miscommunication, but in this one they were earned so I was fine. Lastly, the fl. What an amazing character. Nokdu steals the show perhaps, but Dongjoo was a just as well-constructed, well-played, well-directed and well-written character. They were both such a delight.
It started off great, a nice light watch but the story delves deeper into the politics and becomes more serious.…
King Injo, the prince, did not live happily ever after. They both got what they deserved, the king lost the one thing he had exchanged his humanity for and the prince got a life of loneliness.
This is a fine sageuk. I really liked the characters and the music is, well, splendid. I didn't find it boring at all but then again, I enjoy politics-heavy dramas.
That was a lovely, enjoyable film. I didn't quite get how they got out of the castle with the flaming chariot and how it worked, but in the end of the day I don't really care. Like, I really don't. I gave it a 9.
What a mess. Some good stuff, but this thing had problems from the beginning, before any scandal. The directing and editing are kinda rough. The plot is all over the place. That eunuch substory just grew and took over everything else. The humour is patched on between grim, brutal scenes. First I was taken aback by the casual brutality, then I thought it was interesting. But the drama itself negated it, it was made meaningless, and soon was abandoned altogether. Well. Just as well. We are asked to care for characters who are psychopaths. Hey, drama? Don't play me sad music when a murderer and a kid who shot a woman in the eye for the lulz are feeling a bit blue. But yes, the second couple was worth it. And it was only 16 eps, so why not.
A great piece of film making. Enchanting. Moody, atmospheric, carefully put together aesthetically. The main focus is in the inner lives of the characters, where all the story is taking place, even if there are some action scenes. Will definitely watch again.
It took *so* long for this arrogant, womanising jerk of a male lead to be somewhat likeable, and it got abusively worst before it got better, but we did get there in the end.
This little masterpiece of a film is not about solving crime and plot twists and graphic tortuous murders. It is about how much people suck, or the inherent inadequacy of the human nature. We see a series of characters, and they all *want* to do the right thing, or rather, the appropriate thing. They really want not only to show benevolence, generosity, gratitude, bravery, righteousness, but to actually be benevolent, generous and grateful and righteous. But ultimately, when faced with adversity, they have no choice but fail and we watch them fail, time and time again, under the harsh, bleak sunlight of the island. Until the very end. Brilliant film. Also, Ji Sung is outrageously beautiful in this.

Thank you for finding my list useful.
