Loved the actors, but the Black Panther King plot was too chaotic for my taste
I give it a good 7/10.First of all, I love the actors. I think the director made a good choice, not only are they good in their respective roles, but the chemistry is there too! Which I find quite rare in shows lately. Also, I'm not usually a fan of shows that go back in time (1900s). But, in this case, I thought the whole thing was very good.
However, I really didn't like the whole story with the Black Panther King or whatever his name is. A few episodes would have been enough, but this was just too much. Especially as it became quite strange. The fact that he lives in a cave in the middle of the forest, the all-black make-up, the black clothes... like? Was that really necessary? We've gone from something that can be ''realistic'' to something that doesn't make sense anymore, especially after ten or so episodes.
Personally, I think we could have omitted that bit of the story, or really diminished it, and based ourselves much more on Choenkhwan's story, with her stepmother, her half-sisters and her husband who's ''dead''. The story would have been so much better and much more realistic.
However, I'll leave it at 7/10, because it's been a long time since I've enjoyed a lakorn, and this one was more than enough for me, despite the few flaws.
