Dragged out revenge and cliche historical drama with great promise initially
The series had a strong start and an interesting premise of the old switcharoo of the fml with their twin who was accidentally killed. It was such a good plot at the start but sometime from the 2nd half, sometime betweeen episode 9 and 11th, the drama becomes such a cliché of what that is historical where they only focus on elements like power struggle conspiracies, That actually made me drop the drama initially and i just kinda had it on my dropped maybe pick up again later sort of list, Its my i might still watch it when i have nothing else i really want to watch and then finiosh it then. BAsically the whole stpry starts to revolve around corruption among ministers, revenge, etc.
THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN 20 EPISODES, it feels so long and everything got dragged out to the MAX. I actually ended up watching it with 1,5 speed or something at the end bc it started to drag out THAT much.
I had been continuously old that it gets better and more interesting but this just feels like its one of those where you really gotta love the historical aspects of the show to like it to be that long.
They try to keep the watcher engaged with the plot several times by incorporating twists here and there, but those twists were just not worth it for me at least.
