Simple romantic movie set in historical times

There's really nothing outstanding on this movie but the plot is pretty straightforward. I am impressed that they were able to compress a decent story in a 2-hour movie specially that this is set on a historical period. Most movies that I watched set on historical drama either have an incomplete story or doesn't makes sense at all. At least this one is pretty reasonable. Of course, political/power play is a part that won't be left out on historical period shows. This one also have that but not as heavy as most historical period movies/dramas.

The casts has a lot of familiar faces specially handsome faces but there were just characters that I don't really know the purpose like MinHo (don't get me wrong I love to see his face on the screen it's just that his character is unnecessary but that's just my opinion.) The acting for the rest were just so-so, not too bad to criticize but not too good to commend as well.

There's nothing much I can say about the OSTs as I don't really remember if there's any. It was a worthwhile watch but I don't really re-watch movies specially those set in historical periods. If you just want a short historical romance story this is a feel good one that you can definitely choose.
