This is a good fantasy period piece. The plot is solid and interesting. This drama has action, revenge, friendship, royal family feuds, and a leading couple that is fun to watch. The actors were not great delivering their characters but there are moments that allow the viewer to see their acting progress and potential. The leading couple showed good chemistry development throughout the drama but, for been so deeply in love, their intimate moments lacked credibility; it was more a deep self-sacrificing loving relationship that developed through their association than an ardent romance. The drama would’ve been better if it was done with fewer episodes since the story dragged marred by repetition of incidents and the overuse of flashbacks. Still, it is a nice drama to watch while waiting for a great one to come! *Although the end is ambiguous, it is up to the viewer to believe that she took her bracelet back from her friend Gu Qi Shao! ; )
