Joseon Zorro
This drama really is a Korean version of Zorro, with that wonderful Korean historical twist we all love so much...
As this drama did indeed captivate me more or less from the start even thought the acting was mostly bad, the lighting was horrible, the annoying elements more or less overbearing and it was overflowing with low humour... To add to it, it is listed as a romance but there are about 5 interactions between the people who are supposed to have this romance... leaving the romance addict within me very disappointed.
That said there are a lot of great lines here and there, some powerful scenes about the little people rising up and people who abuse their power done well. There are also a bunch of twists of fate, secrets and lies here and there that add a lot of spice to the plot....
The story shows a mix of hanging on to a mistake just because it took a lot of time to make it, that there are worse ways to punish people than by killing them and not to underestimate angry women. There is a loss a great deal of beautiful friendships and found families (also very odd families) between the betrayals and the self righteous men . There was one self riotous power hungry man that got on my nerves just a little to much laving me disappointed to see him live...
Definitely an enjoyable watch, but be were of annoying over acting characters, and the 2008 quality.. A lot has happened in the Korean drama industry and those actors skills in the past 14 years and it shows!
