This was it for me: exciting plot/idea which ended upping dragged on in a slow paced 20 eps. Then it became frustrating at some point because it would only offer good plot twists at the end. However it did offer good charismatic and likable characters which served as comic relief. I am an easy cryer but for me this didn´t affect me as much as the writers wanted to. I think the show somehow tried to imitate certain aspects from scarlet heart, trying to play with the idea of the girl who is loved by two and used as bate, the side characters that are interesting (some of them die), wanting the throne, etc. I also think certain situations needed more development or more justification. Overall, it was good but, being completely honest, it was disappointing because it turned out being really different from what i expected.
