Sigh.... I truly was excited for this drama to come out that this was the first drama that I had watched weekly in such a long time. I'm going to be blunt and say it was disappointing. Anyways, I think I should talk about the rest in it's categories.
Story: 7.5/10
I gave the story it's score because yes, it was okay along the way but the ending,like everyone has said, was very bad. I was hoping episode 15 and 16 were to give me more answers and be more hype than the rest of the episodes but it turns out that they were the worst episodes. I watched the first episode and thought it was very boring but I thought, maybe they could clean it up with the second episode. I was not really right about that. It was very slow paced and the romance is actually a hit or miss for people, but for me it was a miss sadly. I think the only reason I actually wanted to finish was because of the secondary characters of this story, which leads on to the next category. (btw, I felt that Ha Baek's power should have been shown more.
Acting/Cast: 6.0/10
Wasn't really impressed with the main characters acting. Nam Joo Hyuk is amazing but just not in this drama. I felt like another male actor could've played this role like Park Bo Gum and a different female lead and a proper story line. Shin Se Kyung.. I've seen her in Girl who see's scents and she was pretty good. In this one though..not so much. I found her character annoying. I have to say though, I think it's not the actor's fault rather than the director and writer for making the characters bland. Krystal,Gong Myung, and Im Joo Hwan were the scene stealers for me. Every time they came on screen, my attention would be stolen. My first time seeing a drama with Im Joo Hwan and I got to say, I'm lowkey a fan of him now.
Music: 8.0/10
Music is pretty good. When I was watching the drama, Glass Bridge by Savina and Drones seemed to play a lot. I checked the soundtrack and sadly there are only 6 OST's. Usually kdrama's have about 8-9 right?
Rewatch Value: 2.0/10
I don't think I'll be rewatching this because I didn't really enjoy it nor did it entertain me :(
Overall: 6.5/10
I don't really know the full story but was there a reason to why they couldn't do it the historic way? I feel like if they did it like that, the story line would have been so much better. Though I think I may have heard rumours was because of the budget.
