‏For fans of historical dramas as myself, it is a long-awaited gem. It successfully evokes genuine emotions, and made me feel deeply engaged with the story. The script seamlessly combines historical events with personal journeys, resulting in a thought-provoking and impactful viewing experience‪.‬

‏Visually, is a feast for the eyes. The series boasts stunning visual locations that transport viewers back in time. every frame is meticulously crafted to create an immersive atmosphere, from beautiful landscape over the sunset to the horrific battlefield‪.‬ Furthermore, the brilliant script, combined whit a beautifully composed soundtrack, made me truly wonder what flower sounds like.

‏One of the standout elements of the series is its remarkable portrayal of a likable yet spoiled brat female lead. It's no easy task to create a character that falls into this archetype, but Aha Eun Jin delivers a fantastic performance, bringing depth and charm to her portrayal. Despite her flaws, viewers can't help but adore the playful yet not childish character she embodies. Her journey as a most desirable black sheep in a small village, chasing her surrealistic dreams of finding the perfect man, adds an interesting dynamic to the series with the right balance between immaturity and maturity. Right from the start, brief discussion with her and a bird only proves that she is far from being Snow White and not a typical traditional woman of her time. Her character's unorthodox and sometimes foolish strategies, such as her skimming, add a touch of humor and unpredictability to the narrative. Eun Jin's performance successfully captures the essence of the character, making me root for her even when her decisions seem questionable‪.‬
‏Namkoong Min, on the other hand, is the perfect choice to play the easygoing man who doesn't take life too seriously. His character's laid-back nature and ability to match the female lead's unorthodox personality create an engaging dynamic on screen. The chemistry between them is palpable, and watching two similar individuals with distinct personalities argue is always amusing. The series leverages the strengths of its actors to bring these comedic and relatable moments to life, adding a lighthearted touch to the overall dark and sad narrative of the war‪.‬

As the story unfolds, we can truly understand the meaning of loyalty and love. Cheesy as it may sound, they should come to realize that those things are right in front of them.
