I have nothing against sageuk dramas, whether it's classic or fusion sageuk, there are some which are really great for me, and there are some which just so so for my taste, but this one is really poooorly done. Let alone the cheesy premise, the plot and story development were really awful. There are many dramas with cheesy premise but still manage to charm you, but this is not one of them. It started out pretty decent, until they hit the 15th episode or so.. Too many side stories and those side stories got more screentime than the main story. Unimportant supporting characters also got more screentime than some of the main characters. Cheesy premise + weak story and character development + too many unimportant scenes + average actings = disaster. The only likeable thing from this drama is the character Kwi-dong, and he is the only reason I finished this. I regret wasting my 30+ hours to watch this..

ps: If you expect romance from this drama, you won't get much from here. This drama is more about the friendship/bromance between the main lead (this is what I like from this drama). If you expect an epic sageuk, you definitely won't get it either.. -_-; report I found this review Helpful Not Helpful
