I thoroughly enjoyed this drama special. Oh Man Seok was perfect as the former police officer who becomes a "blockbuster" novelist with a fan club to rival today's idols. This is only the second drama I've seen him in; I enjoyed watching him in What's Up, but I came to love him in True Colors.
Loved that the royal family wasn't like your typical royal families in most saeguks. There was lots of tongue-in-cheek humor mixed with a few more serious beats. Being such a short drama, there wasn't any wasted scenes or unnecessary angst, and the ending was perfect for the tone of the drama. I definitely recommend watching this show.

Nice story, nice actors, nice happy ending
A beautiful story, for a long time one of the most beautiful, for me perhaps the most enjoyable ever. Central, besides a criminal case, is the endearing conflict of the beautiful princess with the capable but arrogant writer who is convinced of himself.The writer becomes a detective, as his well-known sharp sense is needed to solve an outrageous crime. Circumstantially, the clever princess gets involved.
Many uninspired stories almost turned me off Asian shows, this one from Korea was great and very amusing. What was pleasingly absent were the otherwise inevitable annoyances, such as annoying love triangles, gratuitous cruelty, human badness of the main characters, ridiculous misunderstandings, and whatever else might ruin an evening after work.
Needless to go into detail, friends of shallow entertainment. I enjoyed this funny, friendly and yet exciting story.

Lead roles 's acting are ok but not outstanding enough. The male lead played the same type of character with his other drama's role.
The female character would be better if she put her lipstick.
Music is alright.
Overall, this drama is ok to watch one time but it is not necessary to watch second time.
