I started to watch this because of Lee Minho and i diden´t have high expactations for this cause i read a lot about slow plot and other bad things. But i must say i was suprised when i actually watched it cause for me it was really good. It is the truth that at the beginning it is a bit slow but after a few episodes it get´s faster and i think this drama needed the slow start so that you can get familiar with the different characters. The actors all did a really great job in portraying ther roles be it Lee Minho as Choe Yeong or Ryu Deok Hwan as King Gong Min. The staff did also an awesome job for this drama and the special effects where really great. So all in all i would say if you like historical dramas, with a bit fantasy, this is definitly a must watch for you.
