This is a nice drama with a cute, fluffy romance, beautiful cinematography, costumes, and good action scenes. Although it is a remake of the Korean original drama “Sungkyunkwan Scandal”, I was expecting more from the leading couple’s relationship and their struggles. This drama is missing the essence of the female and male leads’ strong attraction to each other and left it as a playful relationship. Also this drama lacks the tension and suspense from the original story and the fact that it doesn’t show the struggle and support that the female lead goes through when her gender is revealed. The actors did a good job delivering their characters and the group chemistry was pleasant to see. It is okay for entertainment purpose but, those that watched “Sungkyunkwan Scandal”; it falls short on the plot and the ending feels rushed.
