My favorite kdrama of 2020 and 2021
I just finished watching it and I love it so much. I will be talking about the ending at the end of my review so if you do not want to be spoiled than don’t read the last part of this review!!
Okay so the first ep was already so much fun! I knew this drama will be one of my fav dramas of all time even just by watching the first ep. it is so funny but sometimes very serious at the same time. I cannot watch a very traditional historical drama because I can’t understand how politics works at that time. But this is a lighter historical drama with lots of romance and comedy which makes it easy to watch and understand.
I actually rewatch the entire thing before the last few episodes aired because that is how much I love it. I feel like this is a comedy and fun and happy version of “scarlet heart” (although story is different but I just get the same vibes)
Okay this review is not helping tbh, it is just me saying how much I love it.
So now let’s talk about the ending.... SPOILER ALERT!!!!
First, it is a “happy” ending. Both FL and ML are alive at the end but for me the ending is not happy at all. Although both lived, the king never knew that the queen’s soul is not actually the queen. And so he never knew that the person he fell in love with was actually jang bong hwan and not kim so young. And what makes me angry is... why don’t they explain where kim so young’s soul has been all these time?!!!! Like in the end she did say “i have been hiding” but that is not enough!
Overall, I just hate the fact that when their souls go back to their original bodies, they act like nothing has ever happened.... at least cry bro! You have been in love with a person and you get back to your original body so you can never meet him again and yet you don’t feel sad?!?!
Anyway, despite my unsatisfactory opinions toward the ending.... I still love this drama with my whole heart and soul.
