I give it a 9, because overall the story, casting, directing, and rewatch value are very good.
A story about genius crossdressing painter in Joseon era, it highlights the arts, especially paintings and makes it one of the most artistic Korean drama. Not only that, the cross-dressing story also create problems to hero's journey to find love and soulmate. This drama will taught us that love is not as simple as people think. Love is complicated question.
As a sageuk, this drama delivers compelling story with enough politics but not make it as boring as in any sageuk. The characters feel and think like human being. The villains are interesting and the leads really adorable.
There's also some comic relief injected throughout the drama. But the drama itself won't be this great without outstanding performance from Moon Geun Young as Shin Yun Bok and Park Shin Yang as Kim Hong Do. As a duo, they're really amazing and adorable.
Overall, it's a very good historical drama that not focused on politics but more on the arts, especially paintings.

Many viewers would want to avoid it as it is a formulaic melodramas. But believe me, even it has ingredients of every melodrama, it's never overwhelmingly sad or too dramatic. The feel and the story may look like That Winter The Wind Blows meets Nice Guy. But I like Full Sun better. It just has the feels that won't you get in those two previous show. Yoon Kye Sang as Jung Se Ro is a delight to watch and even it's my first time watching him and Han Ji Hye, both sold me with their romance and love story. Sure, it can get better if the villain is not boring and so predictable like in every drama ever. But it can be ignored if you watch this show for something else, for instance tragic bromance or romantic love story.
Overall, Full Sun is a very good drama. The acting, story, music and rewatch value for me are very good. It's criminally underrated maybe because people are not aware of this precious gem.

I watch it twice and maybe rewatch it again whenever I want to see a particular scene. Ha Ji Won and Bae Doo Na are awesome as usual, their rivalry become one of the highlight of this movie.
Based on true events, this movie move my heart and soul. I can't watch this without shedding tears.
A true gem for someone who like sports!

Another credit goes to Ha Ji Won. She acted and showed many different side of her in the character Seung Nyang. She can pull it off as cross-dressing girl and also beautiful woman that makes all the men go crazy over her. She's not the typical damsel in distress but she made choice over herself and not afraid being involved in men's world.
To add it all, it has really great cinematography, costumes, background musics and has very high rewatch value. Why? Because even when I have to rewatch the same episode twice or more, we won't get bored. The drama suffered from bad writing in the second half of the drama because you can spot gaping plot holes and illogical characters development. But still, Empress Ki, managed to engage the hearts and minds of the viewers.
