Reminds me of Xena: Warrior Princess. The production values, the acting, the story, the makeup... is good for what it is. But it ain't no GoT. The romances are very cursory, plotline not that believable, settings and makeup require a certain suspension of disbelief to get an immersion going, characters a bit cartoony and overdone.

But it does have some finer points, namely:
*CZY was practically holding the show up by himself with that acting performance, and it was awesome.
*CZY aside from incredible acting, was total eye candy here, he looks so gorgeous in them robes, wewww my goodness.
*Surprisingly, ost/bgm really elevated this grilled cheese sandwich into something approaching gourmet. Great job there.

It was worth the one time watch, if youre looking for a "between shows" show.... if for no other reason than to check out CZY's performance as sexy emperor.
