I’ll be completely honest. The acting, plot, scenery were good but the logic behind choices was crazy. The series started off great. You were able to see all of the cast members in there you and how they developed over time. There was a special bond that happened and there was action and intelligence shown in each of the cast members. They seem to work together well but something happened as they got older. Things just seemed to fall apart immediately. The trust was out the window, along with loyalty and friendship.

I continued watching this series because it is more historical drama with a few romantic aspects to it and it’s what I enjoy. However I was so frustrated with it. I get the whole point of having a second lead and I understand that developing second lead syndrome is very common however this one was so different. The female lead spent more time on the screen with a second lead and that includes living together, fighting against bad people together, him rescuing her and defending her.

The man leaves were together for a few episodes and then they were apart or any ternity, during that time see if someone developed a family with someone else although it was that romantic it was still a family but she was still hung up on the moving who she had very little time with him so little interaction. That is what I do not like about it. I’m not sure if the writers just tried to make the leads be together just because but the logic is nuts. It essentially just has the female lead acting like an infatuated women.
I suppose it would’ve been better if they had given the male and female lead more screen time together but instead that time was given to the second male lead and the main female lead which made you want them together and also feel their connection. Most of the time I was shaking my head at her.

I mean I know you can’t help who you love but the writers left human logic and emotion out of the script or maybe they just disregarded the competence of the viewer. We humans find it hard to not develop an inkling of feelings or emotions for an individual that we live with for three years, that we fight alongside and defended for three years, a person that cared for you, claimed you and would sacrifice all for you.

All this was done for for our female lead but she was like aaanh! I will repeat second lead seemed to get more screen time, have more interaction and greater chemistry but the writers decided on a ship that had no foundation.
