To be honest, when i first saw this drama was still summer and only weeks away from starting school again. At that time i wasn't sure of what to watch, and then i saw that Lee Jun Ki was back on screen and with IU. Had my doubts if i should watch it or not, but i'm grateful that i did. The story got me interested too. since the start until the end. The characters were unique, all of them left a mark and i will always remember them. Through this drama i felt a lot of emotions: I laughed, I smiled, i got angry, cried a lot but most important: I fell in love with the characters so much that my heart still can't believe that it ended.
The cast did a great job. The OST is beautiful. I must say this is DAEBAK. If you're looking for a heartwarming story, this is for you.

To be honest, I'm not that into "chinese dramas" specially Historical ones, mostly because they are so long and probably because I'm more used to korean dramas. BUT after the "unfinished" feelings that Scarlet Heart Ryeo left me, i decided to give PWY a try because it was on the top of the most watched dramas, and i'm grateful that i did. It may sound absurd for Scarlet Heart Ryeo fans, but both have similarities. Such as Princes falling in love with the main lead, evil second female lead that is in love with the male lead and wants power more than anything.
Besides that, the story in PWY is completely different from Scarlet Heart Ryeo. This drama is all about revenge and love, love that conquers all, a tragic but beautiful love story.
Regarding the acting, both leads have amazing chemistry (It's good to know that they're dating) .
I'm now a fan of Tifanny Tang, I will look forward to see her in more dramas. She's amazing. The others actors did a good job too.
If you're looking for a historical drama that has action, suspense, drama and romance, PWY is the one for you. If you're unsure if you should watch or not because you're reading comments, please don't. Don't let you're decision depend on someone else, if you want to watch, watch it don't be afraid. It's good to take risks sometimes.

Refusing to step down, Our female lead stays to prove her worth under his strict mentorship.

"The story centers on their intense personal and professional dynamic, driven by opposing personalities."

I LOVED:

Personal Growth

Two deeply flawed individuals confronting their own insecurities, communication issues.
Our female character is really determined to achieve her goals and i LOVED that about her. Also rare to see a female character in a Chinese drama not being childish all the time, she can BE cute and badass.

Our male character shows a realistic and personal growth that is worth to watch.

Secret relationship: Boss and employee but in a way that is not cringy at all, you know? SLOW BURN ROMANCE 10/10

ACTING AND CHEMISTRY - TOP TIER. You can really see the chemistry between the actors and the vibe. Perfect. They are literally perfect. 10/10

OST!!! i loved every song of it, the melody and lyrics... Just beautiful. Also a 10/10

The Story is Realistic and not forced. 10/10

I totally recommend you to watch this is if you are looking for something new, fresh, mature and beautiful. As any other drama have it has its owns misurderstandings, scenes that make you cry your eyes out (like episode 20) but it is worth it. Every second of it. At least for me it was worth it.
