I binged this show easily and enjoyed each step of the way. The characters outside of the FL and ML are compelling and every tear at the viewers heart is eventually rewarded with satisfactory justice/reveals/wins. The FL and ML are both great actors, and although their romance isn't in the spotlight for the majority of the show, I still felt their strong emotional bond throughout the series. Out of the endings given to all of the characters I was least satisfied by the emperor's. I won't go into spoiler territory but because of that the emperor was also my least favorite character out of the cast. I watched The Rise of the Phoenixes right before this one and boy the character difference and maturity between each show's emperor is quite stark. I have no complaints otherwise, great show!
