I really don't understand how this drama is rated so low. I know the start isn't so well, but as the drama goes on, you will be really surprised.
At first I thought, hmm, maybe they want us to know everything from the start. So I watched for my love of how judgeship is portrayed.
But as the story unreveals, it's truly captivating.
As the main thema presented, "there's more than this that meets the eye", as the evil character says, this drama is truly, more than it meets the eye. Also, it shows how every person has a "Pandora box", that can be avoide, but at the cost of someones unhappiness, or you can face the reality and life goes on. But what's more interesting is that in different periods of time it shows both consequences.
As for the acting, it was brilliant. Kim HYEONG-GYOO was superb with his acting.
It is really a shame that this drama isn't that popular.

This was really brilliant. I was so happy watching this, like you could feel everything the characters were going through. I really like the fact that it was based on the legend, I suppose the magically powers of Gil Dong were exaggerated (usually legends are exaggerated stories), but at the same time it was very realistic portrayed the entire show. How people were suffering, the price you pay to be a king, and how absolut power can be destructive for both sides, were so beautiful tightened with the portrayal of the characters(the acting was really good).
Every scene was connected and this is something I really like, becouse in many dramas there are loose moments, but here everything had semnificance.
I don't usually watch historical kdrama, because it becomes stupid and unrealistic (from the point of history), but here you can say it was historically accurate in the case of how were treated the lower classes and how the absolute power of the king worked.
