The first 2 episodes of this drama were so incredibly brutal with killing and rape (or attempted rape) taking up the majority of the plot. For me, I decided to drop this drama because, if the drama was going to be this dark and have such heavy and serious topics addressed in just the first 2 episodes, I decided it wasn't likely going to be a drama I enjoyed as a whole. I personally do not find entertainment in a story that portrays such dark, evil, and cruel topics. I will never deny the fact that history (in any country) is bloody, cruel, messy, and not somewhere we'd realistically like to live in, but that doesn't mean that I want to have all those atrocities on my television screen for me to visualize for entertainment. It's not entertaining to me, and I will admit that I enjoy romanticized historical tales. Sure, romanticized historical tales are not necessarily true to history, but that's the type of historical entertainment I fancy. So while there is nothing really wrong with this drama, *I* couldn't stomach the atrocities displayed on screen and I could not find the plot entertaining for my own personal tastes. People who will probably enjoy this drama, or at least, be drawn into the plot of this drama would be viewers who enjoyed Moon Lovers (which actually started off quite light and ended with similar tones I noticed in this drama).
