6.0/10

All right we got into things a bit more. So proud of the Prince! Going from not even knowing to tell the officials to sits to finding out the truth about the epidemic and making them go to ground zero.

Also, Goo Hae Ryung is smart. Phew! He is doing what he can to work his position. Instead of telling Min Ik Pyung [Second state Councillor] where Mo Hwa [Female physician] truly lives. He doesn't lie, but says she's in the province that the epidemic is. Which she is. What an ending!

Not to mention that Song Sa Hee, the spy historian, might actually be in A REAL SIDE STORY ROMANCE! With Crown Prince Yi Jin! It was so creepy before with this hand thing she did, but now I might be ready to by it. If it's her redemption story.

Clearly we're up for the obligatory sick episodes were all the leads are gonna get small pox. Prince Dowon, Goo Hae Ryung, and Officer Min Woo Won. The writers made it clear they all have not had small pox. Even cleverly making a joke about Officer Min Woo Won not having it yet. Good one.

Overall I feel like this drama is on the cusp of being really good. It's just pacing and the fact that it wants to be more, but clearly is only reaching for pretty to look at and cute.
