My impressions so far...

This whole concubine thing gives me the goose bumbs... I mean on one hand it's so horrible to imagine Ga Hee becoming the Kings concubine bc he is the father of her beloved but on the other hand it's also thrilling :D It gave me a big shock the first time she was at the edge of serving the king than I was relieved that it didn't happen but now the whole topic is brought up again? It's really nerve wrecking >_< But I think she still won't become King's woman bc of the whole war thingy that's going on = no time for women XD
As to the other chracters I have to say that I love Young Shin Gwanghaes servant and Gwanghaes Wife whose name I fogot >_< bc she appears too seldom :( I find Young Shin cute at times but other times he is so cool in kicking asses :D And the wife looks like a strong intelligent and confident woman that would be able to help her Gwanhae and that I wished the main female lead would be like -_-
The 'ourabonim' character is kinda annoying bc well he fell in love with Ga Hee and is another obstacle to the relationship 8as if there aren't anough -3- ) and bc hes 'plans' are all crap! Yep, that's what I think, they are just lame. I mean siriously? He makes up a rumor of war so the government becomes afraid and traines the soldiers? Does he really think that's the only consequence if the King believes someone's gonna incade his nation? No, there'll normally be much turmoil and panik! -_-
But this last scene made it look like there actually really gonna be a war against Japanese? Or is it another lie? Don't know what'll happen , have to see the next episode I guess :D
