Too Much Dwelling On Black Magic

"Mirror of the Witch" was badly written script and too much dwelling on black magic and too little time showing Heo Jun learning herbal medicine. It is a fantasy historical K-drama series of "Hur Jun, The Original Story". "Princess Yun Hee"/Seo Ri is almost identical to a character in "Hur Jun, the Original Story", "Im Mi Hyun", a young daughter of an exiled royal physician that taught Heo Jun about herbal medicine in the first few episodes. Both Princess Yun Hee in "Mirror of the Witch" or Mi Hyun in "Hur Jun, the Original Story" is the first love of Heo Jun; apparently his first love lingers in his memory for a long long time.
Both actress Miss Kim Sae Ron and Yoon Shi Yoon have promising talents. They have good on-screen chemistry in "Mirror of the Witch". Hope to see them grow in this entertainment industry that is saturated with excellent Korean actors/actresses.

Psychotic killer

The story line is rather interesting and thrilling but there are some brutal scenes that are difficult to watch. The actors/actress that play as Moo Jin Hyeok and Kang Kwon Joo perform well and make the "Voice" exciting to watch from the first episode to the end. Some side stories that is interrelated to the main story line. "Voice" could be shortened to 12 episodes since there are too many scenes that are repeated here and there. The good thing about this K-drama series is that it sticks to its core of the story and no "love scene" or "sexual attraction" between the two lead characters. The one that is difficult to stomach is that when we find out that Shim Dae Shik is the "mole/rat", it is typical K-drama series that the least expectant person is the "mole/rat".

Human and Animals Patients are Life Being

I really enjoy "The King's Doctor" K-drama series because it tells us about the meaning of efforts and achievements in saving the human and animal patients alike as a surgeon/herbalist/acupuncturist.

Doctor Baek Gwang Hyun and Nurse Kang Ji Nyung have good on-screen chemistry, even when they were still preteens, they look adorable as buddies. They enjoy each other company. Their smiles and happiness are priceless. Also, the actor/actress, Mr. Jo Seung Woo/Miss Lee Yo Won, seem to be comfortable working with animals. It is so heartwarming seeing them working with all the beautiful horses and other farm animals.

There is Love Triangle or rather three sided love triangle in "the King's Doctor". However, the second lead female (Princess Suk Hwi) and the second lead male (Lord Lee Sung Ha) characters have good hearts and do not destroy the first male/female lead characters. That is the beauty of friendships between Nurse Ji Nyung and Princess Suk Hwi, and Lord Lee Sung Ha's true love for Ji Nyung.

I find Nurse Jang In Joo is a benevolent and altruistic character, she is so lovely and classy. I cannot wait to see Nurse In Joo appearing on the screen. Nurse In Joo steals the show in her compassionate and calm manner.

I thought the character Apprentice Yoon Tae Joo (Mr. Jang Hee Woong) would steal the show like Legolas in "The Lord of the Rings" or Scholar/Warrior TalTal in "Empress Ki". Apprentice Tae Joo's initial appearance as a top student/his good look is an instant eye catcher, however, the script does not allow him to shine. At least he wins Nurse So Ga Young's heart at the end.

A happy ending for both Royal Physician Baek Gwang Hyun and Nurse Kang Ji Nyung, a match made in heaven. I hope they make more historical K-drama series like this one, about the lives of ordinary people.
