This remake of Go Princess Go is highly rated and didn't disappoint. I wasn't sure how I will react to this drama, since I loved the low-budget original due to its "It's so bad, it's good" campy vibes, but this one sure brought it on. Despite my lukewarm feelings towards actors Shin Hae Sun and Kim Jung Hun in their other productions, they gave amazing performances here. They shone as individuals and gelled together as a couple. Their backroom politics and courtyard antics are both engaging and funny.

Supporting characters are multi-dimensional, and portrayed by a talented cast. You can tell that this is a big budget production, from the set & scenery, to the costumes, to the attention to detail, and everything in between. The comedic timing was spot on, and even the over-the-top brewing love story between the Head chef and the Queen's consort provided additional comedic relief. The array of food in the show is also quite impressive so if you are into mukbang shows, political intrigue sprinkled with a dash of rom-com, this drama is for you.
