one time watch


I watched it from the start to the end. It was interesting and hilarious from episode 1 to 6 or 7, when Nok-du was still cross dressing as a female, and then from episode 8 to 16, the show just didn't seem as fun to watch anymore. I liked the way they shot their scenes though, and how every scene looked so nice. The all female elite Muwol corps were pretty cool as well.The main characters were cute, hence 3 stars, although the story made a bit no sense.

===========SPOILERS AHEAD=========
•The prophecy made no sense. The King's son will become King in the future. Duh? Isn't the throne usually passed on to the King's descendants (his son) after the King dies? What was the point of trying to kill his own son? Did the King think he was immortal?
• So it seemed like the King didn't start out as an incompetent King, but supposedly got too power hungry for no apparent reason, other than some subtle hint that was never fully explained on why his father, the previous King, who hated his guts and didn't want him to be King.
• I don't know what on earth Nok-du's brother was trying to accomplish throughout the entire show.
• The King, who was trying so hard to kill his son, didn't even bother checking the face of the corpse, making it seem like he intentionally didn't check because he wished his son was still alive. ???
I have many more questions, but I'll let it slide since the ending was a happy one (albeit a little unrealistically)
