This screenwriter must have something against women
I'm bitterly disappointed in the female characters in this drama, especially the FL. I am sure the actress is simply playing the role she was given, but like the other female characters in this show, the women come across as being just plain dumb & useless. For the most part (with the exception of the King's eunuch who is a blithering idiot) the male characters seem at least rational and sensible. A few are poor actors and don't look the part (the army general) - same with a few of the female characters (the dowager who looks like a cheap harlot in her shoulderless outfits). The princess is another giggling ninny. Are there ANY smart females in this show? The answer is a resounding NO!I made it halfway and kept waiting for the turnaround that some of the reviews suggested, but now looking back at the irritating scenarios and really immature behavior of the female characters, I wonder how this drama received as high ratings as it did. I should have trusted the low ones.
Honestly, this drama's failure squarely belongs on the shoulders of the screenwriter/director; and I promise myself that I will never watch anything he writes again until he develops a respect and accurate understanding of women's roles in these dramas. If this is his personal opinion of women, he needs a serious attitude adjustment.
I am tempted to just watch the last episode to see how it ends - but if it's much the same kind of silliness for the rest of the episodes, it wouldn't be worth my time.

Obsessed
It been a long time since a cdrama has intrigued me as much as this one. I’m only up to ep 8 and I’m hooked. Normally by now I’ve predicted the end but I certainly haven’t yet. I in fact have no idea what to expect other than the normal cliches like evil queen evil Mum queen evil second in-line for the thrown not yet evil brother etc. The female lead is so cute and the male lead is so devoted to her. I only hope it continues the way it is and doesn’t take a drastic turn towards to much nastiness. Currently it is cute and fun with a twist of evil and I want it to stay that way. Evil does not have to take over the drama for it to be an awesome watch.Was this review helpful to you?

Pior final
A história começa interessante, mas da metade do drama ate o final tudo começa a ficar horrível - com momentos sem nexo. E então chega ao final, e a gente pensa vai ser um final feliz - mas não! Não se sabe quem teve a infeliz ideia de fazer dois finais e os dois são terríveis, um a prota está em estado fora de si - sem total noção dos seus atos e ainda metem ela em uma roupa de noiva e no outro, cria-se toda a expectativa de que será um final feliz - NÃO, o final termina em aberto - precisando de uma segunda temporada, que provavelmente e com certeza, jamais ira acontecer!!!Uma perda de tempo assistir esse dorama.

güzel başlayıp saçmalayan drama
Sonu belirsiz olan bir dizi için 36 bölüm izlemek ve sonu nasıl bitecek A B C seçeneklerinden birini bizim seçmemizi istemek bana oldukça saçma geldi zaten son jenerik te kızın hangi kıyafetler içinde nereye doğru yürüdüğünü de senarist bize göstermiş niye seçiyoruz ki seçeneklerden birini ? ayrıca ilk 4 bölüm de kızın kime ilgisi vardı belli idi ya kurguyu buna göre devam ettirip sonunu ona göre bize gösterselerdi madem oyunun ortalarında kurguyu değiştireceklerdi sonunu da jeneriğe göre bitirip seçenek sunmasalardı senaristin kafası karışmış bunu da bize bırakıp sizin de kafanız karışsın demiş :)))Was this review helpful to you?
