Good, could've been better.

It's good. Could've been better. The story seems patched-up in various parts. You get the feeling that they are trying too hard.

It's kind of trademark of Netflix produced shows - they try to do lots of things in one go. Sometimes, it works, most times it doesn't.

OST is pretty good, bit boisterous at times. The acting by all actors especially Lee Jae Wook is tremendous.

The story is set in medieval period. Hongrang (LJW) once disappeared, appears again after 12 years as a mercenary. Is he the authentic Hongrang or not? That's what we find later. Why he disappeared? That is one of the main plotline of the story. Another plotline Sim Jae-Yi figuring out whether the Hongrang in front of them is real Hongrang or not.

Should you watch it?
Yes. There is no reason not to watch it unless you're not a fan of LJW, Jo Bo Ah.
