Excellent actors who did the best they could with the terrible plot.

I had high hopes for this drama. Despite the censorship and very little skinship there was potential for great chemistry between the leads. Unfortunately this potential chemistry never really took off, and aside from a couple of excellent historical scenes the rest of the drama gets more and more ridiculous and goes totally off the rails.
Pros: Good musical score, the historical costumes are really nice, and great acting from the cast despite a very poorly written, illogical, repetitive script with huge flaws in logic.
Cons: Everything else. Smart, confident and skilled characters suddenly become uselessly stunned and make stupid decisions just to push the story along. Themes that matter a lot in one episode are suddenly forgotten for another 6 episodes before resurfacing for convenience and then being dropped again. The same scenes repeat so often that we are extremely bored because we have seen them something like 6 times before! Very tropey to the point that horror scenes are actually comedic towards the end. For example: Running away? Keep stopping to make soulful dialogue and let danger catch up to you before running again for a few steps. !!??
Ultimately I watched it till the end for closure and due to the hilarious comments from other viewers on Viki. Would love to see the leads together again in another historical drama even though I don't usually watch that genre - I would watch it to see them acting together.

Stellar show with great depth

I cried, I laughed, I cried and laughed again...then I bawled my eyes out. What a beautiful short drama about what really matters in life and the hard lessons we learn on this journey. Beautiful performances from the young actors, heightened by the lighting and camerawork. I was touched by their innocence and depth of emotion. The musical score adds to the emotions in just the right way.

10/10. I only gave it a 9.5 because it was so short :)

Highly recommend this drama - just make sure you have tissues nearby.
