"Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung" is a Korean historical drama centered on the lives of historians during that time. Their primary role was to listen and record events without expressing opinions or engaging in discussions. The female protagonist is one of these historians, and throughout her journey, many secrets are revealed. She attempts to speak out against injustice but is told to remain silent, as her duty is merely to observe and document. She becomes the historian of the male protagonist, Prince Dowon. Their relationship starts with misunderstandings but gradually blossoms into love. Prince Dowon, however, is treated as insignificant by the king. Why? There is a hidden truth involving a dethroned king and the female protagonist's father, which is unveiled by the end of the drama.


I must commend the acting of all the actors, from the supporting roles to the leads. I was particularly impressed by the male protagonist's acting and his ability to switch expressions so seamlessly. His performance was outstanding. The actor who portrayed the role of Eunuch also delivered an excellent performance. While the drama may not have had a power-packed storyline, the powerful performances of the cast kept it engaging and far from dull.
