Cheesy Drama with Forced Elements of Modern Comedy.

I give a warning to those of you who want to watch this drama. This drama is a fairly chessy drama with forced elements of modern comedy.

The touch of the modern world, modern behavior and thinking which is quite strong makes this drama feel quite unreal.

Personally, it's quite difficult for me to digest, especially the first 3 episodes. The behavior of a king is often out of character. As well as FML's behavior as a royal servant. This is actually quite excessive for a saeguk themed drama. Especially it appears in comedic scenes.

Don't get me wrong,
I personally am not against comedy elements in saeguk but here, it feels presented excessively and inappropriately so it doesn't feel real. However, after the first 3 episodes, the unreal element begins to decrease (although it is still slightly present) and the drama begins to be enjoyable.

Apart from the problems above, the romantic scenes and intense scenes are shown well. I blushed when the romantic scene started to appear. The plot and writing of this drama are actually simple and not too deep. But enough to be enjoyed until the end. The acting is also quite good even though it's not memorable.
