Would highly suggest this drama to anyone who is searching for a good Sageuk. Was wonderful from the very first episode to the last episode with no annoying slow filler episodes in between.

The plot for the story was very tightly written so there are no huge holes or what the heck moments to deal with. It was also a great romance as well as providing the viewer with great historical context. If you are looking for a historical drama to watch this would be my #1 suggested drama.

Also the episodes are short so the 108 episode count is misleading. It is not at all a hard drama to get through.

I really enjoyed this drama. The main two men were really dynamic in their acting and I always loved watching them go against each other. Also the whole deciding if blood or circumstances makes you who you are was very interesting. Not a huge fan of the evil dad's casting. He just was way to young for the role (even though he is a good actor) and their attempts of making him look older were always distracting. It dragged a but around episode 29 to 33 but for the whole it was a really solid melodrama that was enjoyable to watch from start to end. And I really liked the ending as well for all the characters involved.
