The secret Shi Yeol's Guesthouse.
I will be quick 'cause I wanted mostly to write a Review with a Shi Yeol Reference.
A really solid drama. First 1-12 eps were really good, while 12-16 were pretty okay. I pretty liked 17-8, they were pretty interesting but not great. Anyway super mega ultra cute ending.
THE BEST OF THIS DRAMA:
Shi Yeol - if you need a 360° character then he is the main of your dreams. Amazing acting, sad past, beautiful personality: the classic "He is smiling outside, but crying inside". Most interesting love story.
Acting: The acting was pretty solid. I didn't find any chemistry between main couple and also (even if I liked both in different dramas) I didn't see a good acting from then. Many said she was the problem, but I failed to gasp the revenge need, sorrow and personality of Kang San.
While about Yoon Dan Oh it's her character the problem... she is presented as smart, courageous and quickminded, but she then just became a love interest and nothing more. A really bland character. In that way also her actress (that was amazing in The Glory and Revenge of Others) looks like bland in her acting. But the problem was her character.
Shi Yeol actor instead was brilling and outstanding. He literally carried the drama on his shoulder.
About the Ending:
Tbh I was happy Kang San didn't became king--- tbh since day 1 he never had any trait of a good King. He is yes a good prince, but not king wise. I disagree that he gave up on becaming a King because of Love. Since day 1 he was just blinded by Revenge and protecting who he loved, but he has no interest in Politics, People and what to do as a King.
Yoo-Ha instead is King material, even if agree that they should have make his character kind of better. But I think he was not that bad. He always put others before him and loves to work for others and have ideas about how to improve the country. Yeah he could have been also a good minister near the King, but I really can't see Kang San as a King at all.
I agree that lying is bad-- but I will consider it in this case as a white lie. Maybe was too late to clean all the steal identity?
What I was sad is the fact Kang San felt that he should have stayed away for Political reasons--- but well.
Anyway Shi Yeol getting his happy ending is the best thing ever <3 I will maybe came back later to adjust my review.
