A bit of fluff for when you don't want your brain working to hard.

This was neither the best of dramas nor the worse of dramas. It was light in the sense that it did not take itself very seriously. Even if its tagged with 'historical' drama, its best to think of this as period fantasy as it has little relationship with any historical reality (especially as regards female costuming). The plot was decent except for the SML (see comments below). I liked the witch tribe concept and the body switch in this one made reasonable sense (in as much as a body switch ever makes sense).

I liked the FL. She was cute and funny. The ML was the typical stern/severe type who gradually softens for his love. The SML was completely two-dimensional who made decisions that made absolutely no sense just to give the drama some conflict (as in, if he truly loved the FL, he would have known that being king meant nothing to her).

The ending is a choose-your-own adventure (at least on YouTube). I liked A and C versions the best, B was just sad. A sets you up for a sequel and C is a happy-ever-after ending.

I won't rewatch this one, even scenes between the leads, as it was just a fluff drama with nothing special, but nothing so horrible that I couldn't finish it.
