its funny, i keep falling asleep too. But i love the drama and story. I think its because the lead girl moves practially in slow motion. when she walks, talks, moves her hands, whatever it is....I am a little more than 1/2 way thru but I do plan to continue to forge ahead! Maybe it just needed less episodes to convey same story.

As of ep 13: i am thankful there is less to no bickering... and more physical attraction and PDA and interest in sex than in recent past episodes. I needed that.

Thanks for this. I will check all these out. If there was one to start with, which would it be given his whole selection of work? Queen Seon Duk? or something more current and work back? I am new to kdramas since the fall of 2016. I haven't caught any of his work yet so am excited to have a new quest.

the live action version scenes between the two leads are very sensual. Am so used to watching KDrama's that not used to seeing this much mature content in a drama. Its actually a relief to snap back to reality and watch someting NSFW. Its really interesting and as @fumiko describes below, a guilty pleasure. I've rewatched a couple scenes from the the eps a couple times now because they are so candid and well acted. Especially the one where she she is in his room with him when he thought he was alone.

He's like a weed that just won't go away.

Are they really going to romantically match up Go So Young and Sung Joon? Major real life age gap! Really wanna see where this is going...seems like its steering that way.

I really don't like casting of the female lead because she is too old for the part against Song Seung Huen. She looks dowdy in more than half the episodes as the historical Saimdang. She's like 6-7 yrs older than SSH and its compounded by the camera filming.

i loved him in this. complicated drama. good story.

He is stunning both to look at and most importantly, as an actor. I will say that I hate seeing that beautiful body of his hidden under all those historical clothes in Light's Diary....lol...I guess a shower scene is out of the question? ha!

i have on multiple sites. Is it out anywhere yet that you are aware of?
