    When I watched the first episode I was hooked into it, thinking it will be a drama relating to court politics and occasionally some action. The action did come but the politics were mere child's play. Many questions remained unclear, many plots didn't make sense. Maybe the subtitle didn't do justice but the story itself lacked charisma. If not the court politics, then martial art and charisma of the protagonist could have made up for it. The only thing that made me rate it 6, is all those randomly popping philosophies and compromises made for love.

    Usually, period dramas are a bit boring, especially when they exceed the 16 episodes barrier. However, this one, kept the interest high till the end. Sure, the mystery wasn't that good, as it was easy to figure out. But, the whole bad politics plot was entertaining, with lots of action scenes and very realistic costumes and settings. The performances were great, and probably that's the main reason why this one gets 8 out of 10 from me. The love story was okay, though, it got a bit tiring towards the end, plus, they didn't seem to have chemistry at first. But, it worked out eventually, so that helped with the love triangle as well. Overall, 8 out of 10.

    This story is a bit scary. Hour, after hour of Asian entertainment on Netflix. And they all tell the same story, although densely populated the Asian countries have only a handful of individuals. The rest is just a mass that requires food and shelter from the king in order to worship him. And make no mistake, the king is not an individual either, he is only the provider and the slave to their whims and happiness.

    I think the Story Writer hasted at the first part that's why many things were missing and the first part was mediocre

    things started to get interesting and more realistic after Crown prince's father died. And the story got better from then

    The thing i liked about this series was the evolve of the crown price and how mercy can win over people

    But have to admit the first part was awful and unrealistic
