Recommend a Sageuk Drama

Why did you drop Queen Seon Deok? Most Sageuk are like that, so I'm not sure why do you want to watch Sageuk particularly? What kind of Sageuk are you looking for specifically? I see that you drop (or put on hold) some dramas that are of a "lighter" type of Sageuk like "The Moon that Embraces the Sun", "Faith", "Iljimae", etc. So, I'm not sure which one to recommend, but maybe check these out:

- Dae Jang Geum (The MOST popular Sageuk ever in Asia and beyond...)
- Jang Ok Jung, Live in Love
- Jumong
- Chuno
- Hwang Jin Yi

Maybe a shorter sageuk will be better.

Try The Return of Iljimae. It's 24 episodes long and has a very good story. It's a sageuk with action and romance. You might like it. And don't worry, it's not a sequel, the title is just like that.

Hong Gil Dong Iljimae Jumong (maybe too long) Chuno

Try out: Return of Iljimae Damo The Princess's Man and Arang and the Magistrate - not a sageuk by definition, but a period drama. :)

I am a Sageuk drama fans, hence, I've watched many of them. Here are the one I highly recommend: The Princess' Man, Jumong,A Tree with deep roots, Dong Yi, Iljimae, Jejoongwon and The Kingdom Of The Winds. Chuno and The Bridal Mask ( not my favorites but both are recommendable).

Honestly, I'm not sure why I couldn't continue Queen Seon Deok. I may skip a few episodes and continue. Moon/Sun just got too strange and although I think Han Ga In is pretty, her acting leaves much to be desired. Same with Kim Hee Sun and why I put Faith on hold. Iljimae, I just didn't have the attention span for at the time. It didn't hook me in.

I like them for the drama and fantasy blended with history, plus the beautiful costumes. I think I'll look into Dae Jang Geum and Jumong or Chuno. Thanks!

I've heard that Return of Iljimae is better than Iljimae. Thanks for the recommendation.
