Big disappointment
I love historical dramas and I can't believe this drama is rated so highly. Almost 17 hours of practically nothing. The romance was mediocre, the secret organization and conspiracy plotline even worse, and there weren't even any decent fight scenes. The first few episodes were great, but things started going downhill around the halfway mark; by the last 3 or 4 episodes, I really regretted that Viki doesn't have a playback speed-up option.Was this review helpful to you?
It's not a bad drama
, but I'm a bit surprised by such a high rating, especially compared to the Korean version. The story is interesting; for me, the best parts were the ones that weren't in other versions, but I watched the rest of the scenes with a feeling of being unsatisfied and of having seen better acting. The first few episodes were captivating, but after the middle, the quality dropped. The last episode was a travesty; the creators' solutions were so flawed that it was painful to watch. The acting was also mediocre, with only Rosylin and Gorya; the rest of the characters' facial expressions were limited to two or three. I've watched the Korean version five times, and I definitely won't be watching this one again.Was this review helpful to you?
