Hello! This is my first rewiew so I'll try to make it short.Things I liked about this drama :
- acting, especially Lee Soo Hyuk.
I really felt his pain as HB, he's the saving grace of this drama in my opinion
-music was ok, nothing memorable but I didn't mind it either.
Now the things I didn't like about this drama :
-everything else
My biggest issue with this drama was the female lead. At first, I was like she's too naive, too innocent but now I don't feel that anymore. Her character is plain dumb. Won't get into details because I'll have to spoiler you but I doubt there's anyone watching this drama that likes her.
The story had potential but it started wrong from the start. I think the period was too short, being reincarnated after 32 year, if I remember correctly. Is not like a lot has passed, people still remember you. Another thing I didn't like, there are too many crazy people in this drama, like for real, I felt like this was way too unbalanced. I liked the characters before being reincarnated more and that says a lot about how terrible the present ones are.
The writing is terrible, they made it seem like him stalking her or wanting to give her a heart (lol) is cute, cheesy. Yes, very sweet. For the people who find this cute, look out for your heart, I'm sure you'll change your mind when someone will want yours.
The directing is not better either.
Overall, in my opinion, this drama is not worth it. One of my biggest disappointments, I was quit hyped because of the story.
Don't waste your time on it, you will end up regretting, as I did.

This is my first historical drama, so i didn't expect to like it even tho I love the cast. But damn, i was loving everything right after the first episode.
For me, the main point of the drama is the cast. Sometimes, i forget to pay attention to the story (even tho, the story is really interesting), and just stare at their reactions, such a talented cast. The main reason why i started this drama, was Shin Hye Sun. I've watch most of her dramas and she never disappointed. No matter if it was a main role or a support, she always stole the spotlight for me. But here.... this is more than i was expecting. Her acting is insane and she better receive some awards for it. She matches her actions perfectly with the inner voice of CJH, is like they're the same person. Insanely good acting.
But another big surprise was Kim Jung Hyun. While his role may seem way much easier than SHS one, he's doing a really great job playing a dumb king, while his eyes really talk for his real personality. There's no need to say anything about the supporting cast, we all seen him before in dramas and we surely love them. So many talented people.
The story :
While i laugh, i really laugh a lot and is one of the most funniest dramas i ever watched, is not just about that. The stories behind the queen, the king, the concubine, all of them are so interesting. I find myself laughing a lot one minute then crying when the flashbacks with the queen appear. I didn't skip 1 minute for now, in 6 episodes. The story doesn't feel draggy at all, everything is well paced. The writing, the directing, the music, everything is high level and I'm happy that it's getting more and more attention in Korea.
I hope it can maintain the high level, for once, I'm happy that we getting 20 episodes, as long as they have enough story for it.
If you're not into historical dramas and don't know if u start it, trust someone who never watched historical before and loves it. You'll be in love after first episode. Enjoy ~
