Some are slamming this, but I am looking forward to seeing more. I'm wondering why many keep referring to the FL as a "villain" She is the hero! Sometimes I wonder if people that write reviews have actually seen the shows. I feel the FL is doing a good job but I feel she is written to be a little over the top. I don't believe it's overacting as much as scenes that make her seem like a spoiled brat. Some of her actions seem unbelievable for a girl that was raised by a general. The ML is now one of my faves. This is about the 3rd series I've seen him in and he is steadily growing as an actor. One of my few nitpick about production value is the sped up scenes. At some point the editors of historical dramas will understand that instead of speeding up someone running, or horses running you can simply cut into the scene at a later point. Otherwise your drama will come across as cheap and poorly produced. Still I am enjoying it for what it is, and have not had to fast forward through boring scenes and I'm glad there are not 40 episodes. In the US I guess we have gotten used to fast paced shows and sometimes the slow burners are boring and talky talky. It could be that too much dialogue in another language can sometimes make me sleepy, but I have not had that problem with this show.
