Skip tis & watch The King Eternal Monarch instead

Lead male & female ruined this series. I got to episode 7 & found little incentive to continue. If you haven't started this then I urge you to skip it and watch King eternal Monarch (2020)instead because it is a time travel romance with the same male lead;Lee Min Ho. What pushed me over the edge to drop this ? Lee Min Ho's wooden acting. His acting is just so poor in contrast to the others actors. Where other actors around him wear thier armor well, ( "owning it"), he just looks awkward .Having seen Boys over flowers (&hating it) and watching him in 7 episodes of this, I was completely stunned when I saw The King Eternal Monarch because his acting was SO much better than I expected (I watched King Eternal Monarch about a year before watching this) In this drama, I found Lee Min ho unappealing. I actually found the King (Ryu Deok Hwan more attractive & interesting. Some of the production was not well done. The bad guy Yoo Oh Sung had very short hair-while 99% of other males had very long hair. Lee Min Ho's short pony tail was somebody's bad idea as well (more cute than suitable for a general)! Kim Hee Sun's character was intolerably annoying. She endlessly ranted like a angsty 12 year old & seemed like an older Noona rather than a love interest for the male lead. Romance? Leads had NO chemistry. Ending: was not my definition of happy. There is a 5 year time skip and the leads are reunited and they are so happy that they stand 15+ feet away from each other, just looking at each other until the camera fades out. Tedious & underwhelming waste of time sums up this series.
