Historical Drama Done Right (Not too slow, not too fast and not too much nonsense).
The show started of with being a simple forced marriage historical drama (which I really enjoy but are unmemorable), becomes a great character development show with business on the side (amazing); and completely plays an uno-reverse card shifting the light hearted tone and becomes a full on survival drama (WTF) and then to a series focused on war (I don't like fighting). I would lie if I was not burned out seeing too much drama on the show; however, it is the execution of all of these genres flawlessly that makes me appreciate the show so much.
I came into this show looking for something simple-lighthearted but left being exhausted and satisfied at the same time. The main leads had zero chemistry at the start and felt out of place in a historical drama but they really developed into something else in a good pace and believable manner. At the end no one doubted their love and bond and both became capable on their own rights.
The mother-in-law was the favorite character among all of them. She made some serious moves that not only felt refreshing, such as giving the female lead most of the power in her house-hold, but also gave her all the facilities to thrive in a male led business environment.
However, the villain seemed dumb as hell and came out of no where. His decision made no sense, as he wanted to help her as a friend but ended up harming her all the time. I don't get these one dimensional villains and why they cant have a life outside being a villain.
My main gripe is that I wanted more of their simple lives before episode 10. In other shows I feel jaded when they stick to one thing and nothing happens in most episodes but the director really took it seriously and really wanted to change things too much every episode. He did a great job at portraying the hardships is just that I would rather have less action and drama than lighthearted fun.
