If I could rate this with an infinite number of stars, I would. The review that uenorie posted hit everything I wanted to say and more. I too am not one to be drawn towards historical dramas and I haven't seen many action ones either. I heard about Bridal Mask when it first aired last year but never got around to watching it because I wasn't really that interested at the time. My friend told me to watch it and said it was her favorite drama and kept saying how amazing it was so I finally decided to give it a try and all I can say is: wow.
I've seen quite a few people complain about repetitive things in the plot but I believe that other things in the drama completely make up for it. To be honest, it was to the point where it was so good that I didn't even notice anything being repetitive or anything. The two leads, Joo Won and Park Ki Woong, there are just no words for how amazing they were. Jin Se Yeon, Han Chae Ah, Shin Hyun Jun, and the entire cast was just...brilliant.
The setting itself is beautiful, the acting is beyond phenomenal, the story was absolutely brilliantly written, and the message it carries and gives is just awe-inspiring and so incredibly moving. This drama ruined me both in the best and worst ways possible, made me emotionally unstable, and to be honest, I don't think any other drama will top Bridal Mask for me and I have seen many other dramas.
In the words of uenorie from this review, "I don’t think I could ever forget the mental and emotional memories this drama has given me. It gave me so many feelings that I don’t think I know which is which anymore."
I guarantee that this will definitely be a drama you won't ever forget. If you haven't seen it yet, PLEASE please please watch it. I promise you won't regret it.
