I really like the overall concept of this series. I am a really big fan of historical dramas and we had a little bit of romance in it is just a bonus for me.
What I like most about the series was that it was closer in the action packed in the fight scenes were pretty good. They had a little mystery to it but not major mystery. I will tell you indeed have my least favorite thing in it and that being having characters believe a lie until the end. The acting was good, the fighting was good, the plot was good, the wardrobe fit the time as well. Overall if you’re looking for a upbeat historical drama/comedy you may like this one.
What I did not like about the series was that the writers drag the bombshell out to the very end. And that bombshell was very anti-climatic. You would expect some big fight seem to take place but it never really happened. I watch so many episodes of a person being lied to and when they finally figure it out other than being upset nothing else happened. Female lead character was certainly not hated but she was also not one that I ever route it for. This is strange especially because she was supposed to be a good person. Your character was just not likable for me. She almost never smiled, never showed remorse even though she deceived others. For me she just seem like a user. Although she had a mission she met some really good people along the way and she use them all and it was simply overlooked because she had a mission.
The ending was most certainly anti-climatic and in truth for me it just didn’t make sense after everything was revealed The ending should’ve been different. But of course we got a strange ending. Although it wasn’t a cliffhanger ending and you see our leads unified in a sense, you will still walk away after the final episode with questions. I for one am not inclined to watch season two if they even decide to have one.

Bottom line is you will definitely get some laughs while watching this. Our feelings aren’t really villainess. The only real bad guy in the series is the one of the writers deemed as a good guy. So you don’t have to worry about the extremely vicious people there is no big mystery to solve in some of the characters are extremely cute and funny. Although our leads have a relationship with each other I didn’t really feel a real chemistry between them. I mean they had really good on screen time but I just didn’t feel it maybe because our female lead had a frown on her face 95% of the time. I don’t know how you get good chemistry like that.
