Nice historical drama
Personally, this was the first show I watched that incorporated historical motifs, and even though I didn't think I would connect with the genre, it completely surprised me in a good way.
As someone who watched Lee Min-ho's early roles as a young actor years ago, it was entertaining and fascinating to see him in a more mature drama and to witness his growth as an actor over the years.
He brings immense presence and charisma to his role as the King.
And Woo Do-hwan, who plays the King's personal bodyguard.... His performance completely steals my sight from lee min ho! Because the show deals with parallel universes, he plays a dual role: one as the serious, tough, and fiercely loyal captain of the guard, and the other as a lighthearted, comedic character in the alternate world. His transitions between the two personalities and his close bond with the King were a absolute joy to watch.
The series explores a fascinating parallel-universe concept, creating an unpredictable storyline filled with action, suspense, and deeply emotional, even sad moments.
The cinematic visual quality and production value are top-tier.
As for the ending—it is certainly interesting and complex, though personally, I found it a bit frustrating and annoying due to how the timelines resolved.
It is a very enjoyable, thrilling, and imaginative drama. Highly recommended for fans of fantasy, action, and anyone who loves Lee Min-ho
