This is a drama that will melt your heart either by heart break or laughter. I was never really into dramas that had some to almost no romance, but I watched the first two episode when it first came out and I couldn't stop. I cried rivers and rivers. It's a beautiful drama.
The romance is slow but it's there. It'll get there, but if I'm being honest, there's not too much until later which I don't necessarily consider romance because it's between a married couple. But they count too.
Like most dramas, there will be some parts where it drags, I've been a drama addict for almost 10 years now, I've kinda learned which parts in a drama to skip or skim through. (Like those scenes where they just stare into space and "think" or when the director chooses to go through a flashback of memories for almost a whole episode)
This drama will keep you upbeat. The music does a great job helping that upbeatness. I found the antagonist a bit odd but his oddness makes him a unique and talented actor. :)
Love Lee Ha Nee (Honey - Miss Kore) She'd getting old now but she's a still a beauty. So far she's played respectable antagonistic roles, she does great.
Main character is so tall and handsome :)
This drama was a great success!

+1 Male Lead (Both were extremely handsome in their own way. At first I wasn't too fond of the first male lead because I didn't think he looked that great so I hesitated watching this drama. But I realized that after watching 10 Miles of Peach Blossoms, I fell in love with the male lead even though I didn't think much of him at first. So I gave this dude a shot and I was impressed. He's such a good looking man. <3)
+1 Story Line (Great story line in general but the production didn't follow through all the way, it lagged/dragged and discredited the storyline)
+1 Male Clothing Set (I feel like the male clothing in this drama stood out more because most of the main characters were Prince's, the clothing line was amazing. It brought out the masculinity, royalty and eloquence of the characters. I was quite disappointed with the female lead's clothing line for the most part. She had maybe one outfit that I remember liking and then she had this one outfit that I was absolutely not fond of at all)
+1 Romance Action (romance action wasn't really consistent throughout the drama but when there were romance action, it was definitely bubbly in my heart. <3)
+1 Music (the music didn't stand out a lot but it was good enough to keep me going, at least it wasn't horrible)
+1 Set/Scenes
+1 Brother and Father & Son Relationships (The last scene between the two male leads really throbbed my heart. Love the relationships between the brothers and then the fathers relationships with all his sons were complex and interesting)
-1 Poor Action (I was expecting more action since the topic was about war and sorcery but I was left disappointed. The action was poorly done as well, I had expectations since the clothing line for fighting was amazing but again, I was left disappointed. There was maybe very few scenes that caught my attention but no, if I include the sorcery action, it was terrible)
-1 Unnecessary Characters (I have to be honest, there were some character where I just thought "This person has little to no point in this drama or were pointless useless or gone the entire time, why do they even exist in here?
-1 Story lagged... seriously. I don't think the story needed to be 50+ episode long. It would have been just fine with 30-40 ep max and then it would have been a great drama that got to the point.

- Most unique, strong, complex, and on your toes story line/plot
- Popular, strong, talented, and wisely chosen cast
- Perfect mixture of romance, action, comedy, thriller, fantasy, and mystery
- Would have been perfected with better music
- This could have been a 20 episode drama, but with such a great story line with rich content in each episode I am satisfied. I prefer a 16 episode drama that has rich and important content throughout all 16 episodes rather than have pointless scenes that prolonged the drama for 20 episodes unnecessarily.
- You will always want more in each drama and wish for more this and that, however, I've found my number 1 drama. (finally)
