First of all, I got interested in watching this because of Jung Yoo Mi, she is one my favorite actress in Dong Yi, and I really love her cute features and her being an antagonist just makes me feel weird in the beginning. But actually, even I like her, the character she portrays just makes my angry which is really good, but there are times I can't help but to think about her cute features doesn't suit her being an antagonist but well, she actually did well. Actually, that was a good idea, her looking so cute and pretty yet has evilness in her can really be a deceiving character. And almost the end of this, for her character I was like seriously, why evil people can be forgiven easily just because they do good thing for only once. But thankfully I get and ending for the antagonist that they actually deserve. Well, we never know what happens but at least. an ending that they go to something that is actually a punishment of what they do. I'm gonna talk about the ending-historical, the killing with sword; it feels really weird. So bland it pisses me off.
As for the plot, I mean the murder case in 300 years ago, I didn't think much of that cause there are a lot of problems in the present, but actually it's cool, but I already expected all the moment park ha got into an accident, and even at the beginning, even I don't think about it that much, I already know it is boo young, I think everyone who watch already know, and ecpected park ha to be in an accident for it all to be resolved.
I know it was just 20 episode so there's know time for unnecessary scenes, like the ending when Tae Yong just suddenly there, I'm curious about the life of Tae Yong, the younger sister of his grandma and the guy who help Lee Gak, I need more. But even if I need more, there are some scenes that for me is boring that I need to fast forward.
Park Yoo Chun and Han Ji MIn, I feel inlove with their characters especially Park Ha, like seriously, I like how she can be strong at times towards Sena, I really hate when the main is being so weakling like please fight, but still even though she kinda stood out for herself. There are scenes that she keeps getting deceived like so naive, I know maybe she have desperations well that's for the plot, it won't be executed well if she didn't get deceived, but for now I'm satisfied with the character of park ha now being too good for her own good.
Btw, there are some scenes that I was like is that even possible? Even fantasy won't accept that kind of scene, in fact it is a real world scene even you have fantasy in your genre, I don't think anything is possible.
The three guys was really amazing, without them, this movie would be kinda bland, they give some flavors to eat. The comedy was just for the beginning episodes expecially for Lee Gak, but with the three, until the end they keep being the hapiness of this series. especially choi woo sik, jung suk won was this serious but will make you laugh, and Lee Tae Ri's character is a perfect blend to complete the trio. I can't say four cause in my mind i is "Lee Gak as Tae Yong ft. the Trio" I honestly enjoy the trio than the main, just kidding!
Lee Tae Sung as Tae Moo just makes me stop or pause watching not because he is a bad actor, he actually did so good and just by seeing him ruins my mood the entire series, I want to punch him, make him suffer, I literally cry out of anger because of him, he did so good, not just his character's evilness that makes me anger, his facial expression keeps running in my mind that I was shaking in anger. Good job too him, sorry cause I want to ruin his face I almost forgot he is just a character cause he seems so real to me, his face's facial expression suits tae moo's evilness.
The story is good but actually the main mystery is already expected and there are scenes that I don't think is acceptable. I still stay cause well the characters, there are still good reason to stay. ost is good, i'm not sure if I would rewatch this, maybe for the beginning, cause I had a good laugh on those, we never know if I'm actually gonna miss this.
I think I would have a better watching experice if I know korean and the difference of the modern and the old way how people in korea speak, I mean I definitely have an idea but still it would be better for koreans or know korean watching this, I envy them.

WOULD I COMEBACK HERE TO DECIDE AGAIN ABOUT THE REWATCH VALUE?
For now, I don't think it is worhy to watch since, I just finished watching it. Is it worth to watch? Yes since it is just 16 episode and focused on the story, but sadly, I didn't had the chance to fall in love with the character because for me it was fast paced. I love the plot, I actually love the ending. Beginning excites me, the middle gaved me hope, the ending was mixed but I am sur eit doesn't excite me. Yes the history must be done, still, it hurts to see those. The optimism of the 4 girls friendship is still there yet it brokes my heart, there are times I want characters to act in a certain way cause it frustrates me, but wait, I'm not a director or writer or something, I'm a person who should appreciate the story of what I'm watching. I'm okay, I can't say it is one of the best but we will see, we never know if we actually miss a story.Was this review helpful to you?

"Great Cast doesn't guarantee you a good movie" - babadook
"Great Cast doesn't guarantee you a good movie" - babadook (on his/her review of this movie)Story 5/10
- honestly, there is nothing special in the story for me
Acting/Cast 10/10
- I only watch and finished this movie because of the actors and actresses, they did a great job, amazing actors and actress. I'm so happy seeing them in one movie, I'm really pleased.
Music 4/10
- I didn't even remember the music so I search for it and listening right now while typing, it's just okay , not a fan
Rewatch Value 2/10
- I don't think I'll rewatch this, I had a good laugh, good excitement between lovers or sort but I don't feel like I would want to watch this again, would I recommend this? well kinda because I want the efforts to be appreciated but I won't talk about it enthusiastically.
Suggested overall: 5.5 but I will rate it 6/10
- I expected much because they combine great actors and actress, which I love, but sadly got dissapointed with the plot, there wasn't special in there, the only special here is the acting, casting, fight scenes, overall the actors and actresses only.
- love the characters ; I'm inlove with the character of Chae Soo Bin, Han Hyo Joo is actually my all time favorite but come on Chae Soo Bin, you can't ignore her. Also Kang Haneul & Lee Kwang Soo are just amazingly funny and all especially Kwang Soo. Sehun has a cool character. Kwon Sang Woo is amazing too. I'm really happy they are in the same movie I'm just sad that I don't like this movie at all.
- I'm a fan of movies with great plots so yeah even I love the casting I won't be bias on this, but the efforts should be appreciated, then the making of this should be appreciated so that's 6 overall

My favorite KDrama of all time!
Hi! I first watched this 12 years ago, it was dubbed so basically it needed to be cut so there are a lot of scenes that I missed to watch before, yet, I really love it, I was 8/9 years old and my parents know how much I love DONG YI, since then I'm always eager to watch korean historical drama, yes there are a lot of good ones but they won't surpassed my expectation after DONG YI, I'm inlove with the storyline, the plots, the thrills, and everything. When I rewatched it this week, I just realized it is more beautiful than how I watched the dubbed 12 years ago. I love how the investigations, love story, thrilling combined, yes it wasn't that mysterious movie. You'll just watch how the main character will solve it all, and it is amazing. I love this kind of historical drama. I also learn the real story of choe sukbin, yes this was exaggeration but still amazing. Thank you for those who are part of this amazing drama. I like the acting of antagonist more cause it irritates deep within my soul, just kidding. I love them all, I love han hyo joo, she actually did her best as a protagonist. The OST's are so amazing, Jang Nara is the best, always.The realization after this movie hits different now that I am old enough to think about life and people.
