If you’re into historically heavily female oriented driven cast then this cdrama will be right up you alley. It’s wonderfully written and extremely well acted all around with a more mature written vibe to it. The cinematography and visuals are gorgeous and breathtaking. It does have some bumps here and there in the pacing towards the middle and end felt a bit rushed, but nothing major. The chemistry between the main leads is one of my favorites. The glances, the coy smiles, oof, smexy as heck. It’s definitely a recommendation and a must watch if you love period pieces.
