Like I mentioned above the secondary and tertiary stories were more interesting but the total screentime they had would amount to at max 2 full episodes.
So honestly - I would not recommend the show. But if you have nothing else to watch and don't mind fast forwarding or watching at 2x speed just cause you need something mindless - then give it a try.
Thought I'll recommend some other good dramas of similar historical genre which would be a better use of your time.
I was eagerly waiting for S2 and did not even start S1 - cause I knew it was incomplete. How is the state now - is S2 complete or hints of another season 3?
I agree with you about Se Young. She kicked all of this off, never once came clean to her aunt and was perfectly…
Yes, even if we discount the fact that her initial lie happened cause she was a little girl and got scared how about the times she acted bad as a grown up. And not all of the actions taken were instigated by her mother - and even if they were, just like how she is having the reflection and guilt, why did she not have it before?
That time her goal was to make use of her Aunt and others around her to get the best for herself. Hard to lookover it - something which the other characters (Goo Siblings, especially) should not have done...

Exactly and so the last episodes while add to the flow of the story (cause someone has to do the revelation) but it seems so unsatisfying. Tbh, she too should endure punishment of some sort - not for maybe what she did as a young girl, but what she did as a grown up. It is not something one should overlook overnight just because she helped with the evidence.
Guessed it long ago, glad that it is unfolding now - Se Young would be Myung Ji's Achilles Heels and reveal it all.
While that does seem logical, I am not liking the writers making Se Young a victim of circumstances and gaslighted by her mother. I think we have pretty much scene her do bad/evil stuff on her own as she grew up. I hope the ending is satisfactory on all ends - the good and bad characters all get their due.
Also - I want more Eun Chong - cutie has had minimal screentime last few weeks. I stayed in this drama for ending and him!
he with chae soo bin charge me up there's has a lot of 🔥scene
That would be upcoming right? I meant I have not seen him in historical roles ever. This is the first time in cameo and am guessing Charge me Up would be a main role in historical/fantasy setting...
Just finished Ep 2 - and I have really good feeling about this show! Jaebal, don't dissappoint. I know it is too early to say so, as I have had my expectations killed by many promising dramas. But with such a strong cast, great story premise and short format - it better do well!
In terms of emotions the writers are really doing it well. Giving us doses of heavy emotions of life and death, sprinkled with some great comedy! I mean SSK's expressions are muaahhh and then they turned it around to a emotional level with the pet/pet owner scene - like OMG! SO SO GOOD!
I just came to check if this inspired by a webtoon/manga etc cause I REALLY want to know WHAT Happens NEXT!
*Fingerscrossed* finally a great drama after a momentarily slump in 2025
Just finished Ep 1 - and given how I've been looking forward to this show + the fact that I love shows like this that have themes of life/death and thereafter = really hoping that this becomes one of the best shows of 2025.
Shows like - Tomorrow, Move To Heaven, are already my favorites in similar genre. Plus I just finished Way Back Love. So I know while this seems to be a comedy on the surface, I know there would be deep, emotional scenes/episodes ahead.
Anyways cannot wait - while am very familiar with the two main female leading ladies, I think this is my first drama where am seeing Son Suk Ku as the romance lead. Excited - he's always been a great actor - and this triplet is bound to be good!
It seems that a character's suffering is enough to justify them mistreating others. So I guess Hana should’ve…
Absolutely agree with your words "It seems that a character's suffering is enough to justify them mistreating others" - which is so weird, wonder why the creators are doing it?
Another time I wish we had @ mention on MDL. Took the quiz just now and @MaMiLkShake I want to know MORE! The plot has thickened....and I feel there is more that what meets the eye!
This is a good one and so detailed, please share the next part soon!
This is my first daily drama and can't believe I stuck with it since the start, and that next week it will be ending.
It is not perfect by any means - but was super addictive, even with the whole overdramatic storyline. This is such a contrast to what I usually like - short format dramas + logical crisp stories. Guess, even after decade of watching K-dramas, I still can find new genres/format entertaining!
Okay - so I need to rant about Se Young and how the drama is giving her time/episodes to play a victim.
1. Even though she was gaslighted by her mom, we cannot neglect the fact that her own actions are not that great. She has done bad and for that she should pay. 2. I get it that Ji Seok has feelings for her = but then why does he allow her to say all these things to him? That he used her and abandoned her, hasn't she done that a lot of times herself? 3. Why does she keep screaming?
For me, someone as spoilt as her should get a tight slap and be put behind bars along with her mother. They were 50-50 accomplice in many things.
Isn't it Kim Young Kwang's first apperance with a historical/sageuk look? And agree with all the comments preceeding mine - he deserves more projects as main cast and that too with a better frequency!

Secondly, the story is not that great in my opinion, espcially of the main characters and given they take the major screentime, it can quickly get super boring.
Like I mentioned above the secondary and tertiary stories were more interesting but the total screentime they had would amount to at max 2 full episodes.
So honestly - I would not recommend the show.

Btw anyone knows how we can add Trailers to a Drama/Movie Page?
Like which section under "Edit This Page" will it fall into?

Not everyone is meant to have a redemption arc.

The blond look is new and refreshing, and she is cute as always!
