The writing in this series is incredible. There are so many twists and turns, it will constantly keep you on the edge of your seat.
The acting is absolutely brilliant. Yeo Jin Goo does a brilliant job of portraying the duel roles. Lee Se Young is superb as the regal yet strong queen.
I highly suggest this drama to everyone especially if you love historical dramas.

The Story:The story in the second part flows a bit better and is more engaging than the first part. I am excited to see how everything concludes in part 3.
The Cast
The title of the second part of this series should be called: Arthdal Chronicles: Song Joong Ki steals the show. He is fantastic at playing both Eunsum and Saya. Though I wish Eunsum had more to do in the second part, Saya definitely was a very intriguing character.
Kim Ji Won is another standout. I haven't always been a fan of hers, but she is proving to be a talented actress as well.
Overall, the second part is very well crafted.

A beautiful story
This story takes a while to get into. The first episode is a bit confusing but after a few episodes I began throughly enjoying the story and the characters.Best Parts:
The characters are so beautifully written and complex. Many of the characters are neither good or bad but are somewhere in the gray area.
The cinematography is gorgeous. This show looks beautiful and it is obvious that the production team put their best effort to make this show look great.
Weaker Parts:
I would say my only complaint is some of the characters I wish we spent more on screen time with them.
A bit of warning: This show can get a bit violent/ bloody.
Overall: This is become one of my favorite dramas and I think the drama with the best production value I have ever seen. I recommend the watch.

Arthdal Kronieken Deel 1: De Kinderen van de Profetie

The cast is superb! Each actor is well suited for their role and the acting is top notch. The standouts are definitely Song Joong Ki, Jang Dong Gun, and Kim Ji Won. I do wish that certain characters were given more screen time but I hope that the seasons that follow will give the characters more time to shine.
I recommend this series and I hope the episodes that follow continue to be as strong or stronger than the initial few episodes.

The Legend of the Blue Sea

The best part of this series is the cast and it was great to see Lee Min Ho playing a kind of different role from Heirs and Boys Over Flowers. I just wish they spent more time focusing on him being a con artist rather than some of the reincarnation plot.
The first couple episodes are hilarious and I adore them.
Overall, I do recommend the watch and it is good series. It is just disappointing that it isn't great.

Story: This drama will not be winning any awards for great storytelling but it is filled with great characters that are very endearing. The romance is cute but I think my favorite part of this drama was seeing the friendships and interactions. Although some of the character motivations do not make any sense.
Cast: Li Xian is what made this drama. His expressions and reactions were golden. It was fun seeing his character change and develop. In the beginning, Yang Zi's character was kind of annoying to me but over time I grew to enjoy her bubbly character as well.
So overall, I recommend this one as a light fun watch. Nothing groundbreaking but there's a lot of fun to be had.

Update: I just rewatched this drama to show to my Mom and I have to say this drama is even better on the second viewing. It just might be my favorite drama ever. (Though I just started watching dramas a few months ago so I bit of catching up on some of the older dramas. )

Action: The action scenes in this show are exciting.

This series is far from perfect and there are many ways that I would like to change the script to improve it but I cannot deny the enjoyment that I had from watching this series. The plot and character development lacked in several areas but the last 10 episodes I found thrilling. My one major complaint is the humor especially at the beginning of the series is really crude and made me uncomfortable at times but fortunately, this is mostly only at the first.
Cast:
Lee Joon Gi is definitely the standout of the series. This series would not have been as good without out him. I would also say the actor who plays his adoptive father is wonderful as well. The female leads though were a bit weak. But I attribute that to the script not giving them much to work with.
Overall, If you are looking for a good time I recommend it.

The cast is amazing! Lee Seung Gi and Bae Suzy have crazy chemistry through out the series. I also appreciated that Suzy's character stayed a strong female character through out. Other notables were Yoo Yeon Sook and Choi Jin Hyuk in very attractive guy liner.
Just a warning, rape is implied a couple times through out the series. Nothing is shown but it is definitely implied.

Cast: I began watching this series because of Lee Min Ho. I don't think this is his best series in terms of acting but he does well as the hero on his quest for revenge. The rest of the cast is good as well.
Music: The opening credits for this series is just awesome. It pumps you up and gets you ready for the show.
Weakness: I think the biggest weakness of this series is the ending. The ending seemed rush. I wished they spent less time on one story line to let the ending be better.
Do I recommend it: This is a complicated answer. At the current moment there aren't many streaming options for City Hunter that are legal. I know On Demand Korea is showing it but it is not subtitled. I watched it because I bought the DVD boxset from Amazon. I don't know if it is worth the price of buying it on DVD, although I do not regret the purchase. I do think it is a great series to watch and very enjoyable but at the current moment I would say wait until this series is available for streaming with subtitles. I hope soon Viki or Netflix will get the license because it is a great series.

So what do I think?
The weak elements: The story is not the best. It is very entertaining but if you take a moment to think about it, you realize there are moments that just don't make sense. And some things within the plot happen with out proper explanation. I also wish that they would spend more time focusing on the main couple.
The strong elements: The characters and cast. I believe this show is the success it is because of the cast. The best part of the show is definitely Lee Minho. Without him, I believe this show would not be considered the classic, that it is today.
Overall, I do recommend watching it. I was very entertained watching it, and I could see myself rewatching certain scenes from time to time, and maybe rewatching the series in a few years.
