I only had one quip of the storyline and that is... listen... I know men will be men but dang mostly in every drama I have seen, only two dramas men were loyal to the woman they love. The flirting mentality of a man I ask why all the teasing and temptations of different women in front of them when the character already is committed to one? I would love to see a drama series more than ONCE that a man is loyal to Love such as 10 miles of Peach Blossom (Eternal Love) or Legend of Fu Yao! I would love to see this in "Joy of Life"! This is just my opinion.
I know Joy of Life will be a great hit and have seen that it has already started winning awards for that Thank you!

Not the ending I would've wanted!
So I rewatch this Kdrama again on 11/16/2019. I love Lee Joon Gi. The fight for the throne amongst the brothers when they started becoming adults was a steady game. Li Joon Gi played his part very well and the idea of having a scar on his face... he pulled it off with his acting abilities. Lee Joon Gi's martial arts was absolutely bad a__. Actually, his martial art was a 10 by itself. IU who plays Hae Soo was very emotional but she did well. The first time I watch this I just couldn't connect with her but this time I did connect with her. Now the storyline, I don't know what I was thinking when I first watch this. I wished this had a better ending and that is the reason why I brought it down to 8 stars. The story where Hae Soo married his younger brother and had a baby where did the time go that not unless that was Wang So's baby got me all confused and Wang So married that horrifying Woo Hee princess. That part didn't make any sense to me for like 3 episodes. I was not happy with the ending at all. Sorry to the screenwriter on that part. I do want to thank all the various teams for doing the best they could.The screenwriters did an alternate ending as I rated it low now it's back up to 10.

This movie should've last longer
This movie should have lasted longer in my opinion. The storyline was just too short. I love both main characters. The ending was great! A life spared. I would've enjoyed this if they made this into a drama series. The visual effects were good for being 2 hours. The sword fighting was excellent. I need to view more of Chang Shen's movies. I watched this before I watched the first one. He has a lot of movies but some have not been released as of yet. Yang Mi I love so there is nothing I could say about her even when I didn't like the "Negotiator".Was this review helpful to you?

William Chan, I applaud you!
I need to thank the writer(s) for bringing awareness to Drugs and how drugs are exported in and out of countries. Thank You! A lot of people do not realize that the drug "Angel" does exist in this world. I've known it to be called "Angel Dust" or PCP. I hope that we can stop those who create these drugs and eradicate the existence of hallucinogenic drugs that possibly can eliminate Human Life.William Chan, portrayed his character as I knew he would. His talents over exceed himself. People when you watch this I guarantee you that you will need, a tissue or handkerchief. William Chan plays a very believable part of the character he is portraying. I just recently re-watched "Lost Love in Times" and compared the two characters being played are so different from one another. For me, that means William Chan does put himself and his persona into these characters yet makes them so different. Kudos to this awesome actor and one of my top ten favs.
Man, where do I start with the cast? The whole cast did their part in playing the characters in this drama. A'se is one that I had to do my research on. I applaud his acting skills in playing this character. The chemistry between Sandra Ma and William Chun was kind of iffy for me but it worked for this storyline. Every movie or drama series has low points and the low points of this Drama Series were not many but made their point across the stage making my emotions flare in anger, joy, and tears. That's how great the cast was. Thanking all the cast, visual effects, writer(s), Producer(s), make-up, and costumes team. Very job well done.

NOTE: Even in the present day, when a man has one wife with added lovers, it never works out well. Somebody's feelings are going to be hurt. That is regarding any culture!

Now this is what I'm talking about.
Yang Mi, these are the dramas I love you in, the historical dramas. No words can explain it to me just know that I see your acting skills clearer and more precise in these types of Dramas. You had me thinking that you were born in this era of life. This is why you are one of my top 5 Chinese Actresses. William Chan, I will always support you in historical Cdramas, you are also in my top 10 Chinese actors. My top two, together, in a drama... I couldn't be happier. The storyline is beautiful to see how it unfolded. I was worried about the ending which had me in tears. All those supporting actors and actresses, wow, you contributed your skills to this storyline. I am very impressed with this drama. The visuals, the martial arts, the costumes... all of it! Thank you!Was this review helpful to you?
