I wanted to try this one after reading the summary.
It's a short drama, only 16 episodes long, and it mainly focused in the process of selection of the queen and the resolution of the cases in which Kang Eun Bo's family was involved.
It's adequate in terms of politic intrigues, nothing new, but poor in terms of palace and harem topics compare to other dramas.
The romance was so-so for me, they had their scenes, but I didn't felt the chemistry between the leads at all.
Lee Gyung (Male lead): his character was really weak for a king, which was really annoying, always being trampled down by others. I didn't like the actor's performance either, it wasn't natural.
Kang Eun Bo (Female lead): she's quite reserve and depends on others a lot. Don't expect a "Mulan" type of personality, she's more of a "damsel in distress" type.
My favourite side character was Wal. He was loyal, friendly and caring.
The music was beautiful and memorable, the song keeps playing on my mind.
The costumes and scenaries were eyecatching.
Rewatch value? No no, I won't watch it again.
I enjoyed the drama and it wasn't boring, I don't regret watching it but it didn't fascinated me.

This drama was so good, I enjoyed it. It had everything in one, love, revenge, hate, drama, politics, and most of all it had a happy ending. If you are looking for a happy ending drama that is also a historical drama this is the one. It wasn't that long either. I highly recommend. I also enjoyed the actors there were really good and they did such a good job. I love the king he is so cute and handsome. I wish they had a little bit more I the ending, but regardless it was a good drama. The plot was really good and it wasn't too sad like many other dramas. I think everyone involved in this drama did a good job. Esta resenha foi útil para você?

First of all I love the acting! ML is so handsome! and MC is pretty too. Just that, why is it that almost all of the characters are always on the verge of tears, if not crying? Especially the ML, like?? It's not that boring but it's not that catchy either. I put it on 1.25x whenever im watching and sometimes 2.0x if the scenes are uninteresting.. which is very often.
Also, maybe it's just that i'm used to chinese historical drama but the punishments are too lenient.
just a cup of poison for someone who tried to kill the king twice and planned a coup? I was expecting for him to be beheaded or his whole family to get killed... and his daughter who also planned the coup with him and wronged the MC gets to live!? damn bro, if someone dared to fuck with my girl i wouldn't let that one live.
Also, most of the time, the king is just worrying about MC.. sure, he did plan to get the righteous officials by his side but that's it and it only happened for like, 3 or 4 times? No direct mention of the king caring for his people without the officials.
the ending is also unsatisfying. there was just 5 minutes left at the end of the series and both of them still didn't meet!? plus, what happened after? did he reinstate her as the queen since they have a boy, or what... did he abolish the monarchy since this happened at Joseon era? I thought it ould be that case at first too, lol I was wrong.
one more thing. the fight scenes are unsatisfying cause they die so easily !? and it's so shortttttttt. Just my two cents lol. But it is good.
the only ost that i find pleasing to the ears is the one at the end of the series, around ep 15 or 16 i guess? and they only played it once ugh.
but it's good tho. you should watch if u want to kill time

VERY ENTERTAINING
This drama has been out for a while but I just watched it and I was glued to the TV. I fell in love with Kim Min Gue. He did such an exceptional performance. I enjoy watching feel good dramas that are absolutely not tear jerkers. Being the person I am, I did tear up in some of the scenes in which the character couple were met with so many challenges in the relationship. The loving relationship between the two main characters was strongly felt thru their performances. I have to say that the baby in the drama was just absolutely beautiful. The drama gave me such a warm happy feeling with the ending. Great work, thanks to all of the work that went into this entertaining drama. I will definitely watch again.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Do not waist youre time!!!
I watched the first episode of this drama but I just could not get interested. The filming is very dark in the beginning and maybe something is lost in the translation--I’m not sure. It seems okay but something is a little off. I'm not a fan of this drama. I didn't like the writing. The actor who played the prince was on point with his acting, but the actress who played the queen her acting is pedestrian at best. I do not why she still found employment that is how bad she is at acting. ...If you wanna lose your time with a boring, unrealistic and super predictable drama. This one is for you.I love historical dramas I guess I’ll have to try again later.
