I’m looking forward to this because of the actors. I found the original, Hirugao, mediocre at best. The actors were great in that one. The storyline was weak, trashy. This shows promise.
Falling in love is easy. Living under the same roof while under a microscope as a high profile career couple with very demanding schedules has to be intense. I wish them the best
Season 3 previews shows a new female character after Eunsom’s escape. I’m hoping a love triangle or quartet is not planned with Tanya and the twins. This drama is better than that.
The Pang and Taewin couple were my One True Pair ( OTP)! A love story built around them would have been more attractive and exciting. This was decent. 7.5/10
It’s a very good drama with enough cliff hangers to make you rush to the next episode. Casting was excellent. Acting was better than the flashbacks I got of Yan Xi Palace in the first few episodes since they have some of the same main leads. The depth of the characters were excellent. The middle 20 episodes were surprisingly the best considering 60+ ep dramas drag in the middle. The story took mostly from history was very interesting and could have been salacious if it tracked closer to history of the habits of the royals. I’m sure the censors would not allow it. The ending was a bit rushed as they tried to fit all the exciting history into the drama. It’s definitely worth watching! 8.5/10
I thought the twin brother will be in the shadow of Eun Som but now I feel like Saya overshadowed all the characters…
Saya is book smart and politically savvy. He’s getting more air time and I’m not complaining. He is Eun Som cleaned up. Lol. His twin is “street smart” and athletic. Both are attractive in their own way.
