Empress Ki is an amazing drama with great actors and a great story. It may have a lot of episodes but you will want to keep watching and the show will go by quickly. Truly it has left an impression on me! Story: The story is very well written and has so many twist. I really like how Empress Ki was a strong female lead and she was smart! She actually thought about her actions, didn't let people push her around and she planned smart. The story has everything from love, betrayal, politics, hate, power struggles and so much anguish. It's truly worth the watch. Acting: GREAT! Everyone did such a great job. Ha Ji-Won was killing it in this drama. She is a great actress. Ji Chang Wook has completely changed in my eyes. I saw him in healer and he was great also and here he doesn't let me down. He does a great job playing Emperor. Joo Jin-Mo did great also. It's my first time seeing him in a drama. The whole cast did great with the acting overall I could find no flaws. Also Jin Yi-han and Baek Jin-hee did great. This was my first time seeing both these actors and I will look for more of their work. : Music was pretty great in this drama. It fits well. I especially like the instrumental. Rewatch: I would rewatch even though it's so long! Just so many emotions. (Do I want to go through it all again? :)) Overall: 10/10
