Pleasant surprise for a time loop political revenge drama.
Story: To strenghten ties between their kingdoms a southern scholar maries a northern princess. But she is in reality an assasin and the two find themself trapped in time loops.
First of all, it is not the basic setting of the character trapped in the novel or so. This is really a maze. And it grew on me, as I was watching it and I really enjoyed it.
This is a mortal enemies to lovers trope, so from the get go, there is action and stunts mixed with romance. This is how the characters took me with them to discover this story of political betrayal, espionage and war resulting in a peace-making marriage. I found myself crying at some point of time, watching the leads and I understood that I was already in love with the drama.
There was a first arc and a second arc which is like an introduction to a season 2.
If the story had ended in one season my rating would have been even higher. But let's see if we get a sequel.
Pros :
- Good acting.
- Good kisses and good chemistry.
- Good plot. I liked the time loops and the maze in which the characters try to uncover the truth.
- Good action scenes.
- The side characters are mysterious and that's good for the rest of the show.
- Costume were beautiful for that budget. I have seen the same in superior dramas.
Cons:
- Ridiculous main villain but not one-dimensional. So that's a plus.
- 2 arcs. I would have liked the first arc to give us a proper ending. But at the same time I would like to watch a season 2 because all the side characters have mysterious motives and backgrounds. And I am curious about it.
Overall :
A pleasant surprise time loop drama. It was great. I liked everything Even the first arc which was Male centric and the second arc which was Female centric. So if you like mazes like I do and you can accept a story that opens to a second season. This drama is for you.
