Bittersweet Love
As a person who skips to the end to know how a drama ends, i did it this time too. To be fair i expected the ending after reading the plot. But somehow the ending being what it was, still instilled in me the desire to watch the entire series(in a day).Yes, i forwarded, yes, i 2xed it. But that was only because i wanted to finish it before my day ended. As an avid watcher of kdramas, this is truly a very unique plot. The acting was superb, could find no fault. Jeon Yeo Been's portrayal of Lee Da Eum
felt very realistically tearjerking. It was also nice to see Namkoong Min playing such a role in such a drama. Truly a nice experience.
If you are expecting happy, idealistic love then this is not for you. It speaks about some harsh truths, making you wanting to question your future your love life and life in general. It inspires you to live for yourself and happily.
I really recommend it, if you are into watching different genred of dramas.

I love the moon, yet the moon doesn't know.
I cannot begin to say how much I was looking forward to this release of the drama. As soon as I heard about it, I added it to my list (in January). The story itself (the novel) was very well written and very captivating. They have also done a very good job with the drama adaptation, though I felt some parts were lacking, like the war in Rundu City, the reveal of the identity and the ending.The actors have done a great job, especially Ryan Cheng, loved him and his acting, as well as Zhang Kang Le. The production, VFX make you feel very engrossed in the time period and the story. I would 100% rewatch my favourite scenes.
The chemistry between the actors was also pretty good to watch and added a smooth flow to the drama.
All in all, a gripping watch for period drama lovers.
