He's not in prison... It's mental hospital cell in that era. They put them in cells to make sure they don't harm other people. But it looks like he/she's still understands what's happening so they're on the edge of being incapable mentally and yet still able to understand or comprehend things.
The guy in the cell could be a woman (which could even be Gil Chae), but this could also possibly be Ryang Eum as he can pose as someone feminine and his character was meant to be a bisexual guy who's severely in love with Jang Hyun.
On Wikipedia, there is this article about the invasion of Qing on Joseon:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qing_invasion_of_JoseonIs…
I was actually thinking of the same thing... but I have to research more about this as most of the names involved in this drama isn't actually in the timeline from the wikipedia article. But this seems to be the same timeline.
Hyo Jo was mentioned in the first episode, which is in the article but Khan wasn't in the article. So maybe they made that part fiction, but there definitely was an invasion and agreement that Joseon will be under Qing's management.
Jang Hyun and Gil Chae are so much alike. They are both arrogant, callous, and egotistic and yet so selfless and caring to those they love. They're also both very witty! When survival needs to kick in, both of them become the most reliable person in the group. I like how both of them have a sense of survival instinct and are really both lucky to survive in the worst situations.
Yeah, same here. It really minds me of Heroes, different people with super powers slowly coming together. This…
Oh yeah! This happens so much in drama making. Have you seen the drama Sense 8??? I had so much potential but they had to cut it up to 2 seasons and a special due to budget. But the producers were sooooo good at wrapping everything up in those short lived seasons. Crossing my fingers for this drama to end up like that too!

I feel like this drama has so much potential for a season 2. It seems hard to wrap up everything in just 20 episodes. What are your thoughts on this? The American series went flop because the plot line became so loose. I hope it doesn't happen here.
I also liked the dedication of each actor to their characters, especially Lee Jung Ha (Bong Seok) who added a couple of pounds to his weight just to be in character. His onscreen mom Han Hyo Joo (Mi Hyun) had to practice moving her ears just to depict that her supersenses are being used. There's so much more behind-the-scenes info about the actors but these 2 seriously stood out for me.
This reminds me so much of heroes, the American TV show that they stopped producing for so many reasons. I hope this doesn't end up like that.
I love how this drama was able to show more heartwarming moments to even out the violence. If you're a parent like me, this show would be highly relatable minus the supernatural abilities.
I am not sure why sad ending is bad, some story does end up heartbreaking but just because it's sad doesn't mean…
With this drama, I'm pretty excited on how things are gonna work out or not work out. Will they or will they not survive is the question here, but it's also about, how will the process happen? Which is overall what makes a drama worth it.
I wish this drama is under the category of "Worth the watch" up to the end, just how Mr. Sunshine and Six Flying dragons was for me.
The comment section on this site is generally negative anyway. You do make some valid points though. Personally,…
OMG! Moonshine and Queen: Love and War! You just mentioned two of the most underrated dramas I liked!!! How were those dramas for you? I loved the storyline and the mystery aspect... it was a simple watch but had depth in it. It wasn't the most glamorously edited drama but for me it was a really good show.

Sad endings aren't bad actually since it's all about the journey... but there are people who prefers happy ending than sad ones. It's just all about preferences. ^_^
I totally agree that there are sad or rather tragic endings for certain dramas but gave a really good run even if it lasted 20-60 episodes. While some had closely tied happy endings but still ended up really bad. Like seriously bad you'd just want to get back on the hours you wasted on the drama. lol.

I got hooked on episode 2... But I loooooved episode 1. This drama is refreshing from all the other dramas I've been watching lately. Heartbroken or not, I'm looking forward to how the story pans out. I loved the drama Rebel as it was witty and written well. This drama seems to be the same having the same writer. For sure we'll get lots of plot twists.
Forbidden marriage was a fun watch! Each character was interesting even the love triangle. I had major second lead syndrome there. Flower Crew was fun too, I just felt the episodes weren't enough and they could have added more. I'm pretty biased towards the main lead. Lol.

That's my take for that first episode.
