this drama will leave you traumatised
i don't know why i did this to myself by rewatching this drama as i'm now traumatised for the second time and fuming with anger. the end is so heartbreaking and unsatisfying. the least they could do is at least show us a snippet of wang so and hae soo meeting each other in modern life and being happy but NO... it had to be a sad, heart wrenching ending.wang so swore to never leave hae soo, he said the throne was nothing to him if he couldn't live without hae soo but in the end, he also became deluded by the idea of being on top of the world. had he not made this choice in the first place, he wouldn't have lost hae soo at all and they would have lived together, away from the palace, happily ever after.
also, hae soo crying in modern life and apologising for leaving wang so alone? WANG SO was the one who abandoned YOU. if anything, he should have felt all the regret, not her.
and most heartbreaking to me of all was the death of wang eun and his wife. i will never understand why the writers chose to do something as cruel as this. they didn't deserve and ending like that the slightest.

could've been better
although there was so much potential considering the strong plot, in my opinion the female lead showed zero character development until the very end. i couldn't exactly feel the romance between the main couple. although the male lead was heads over heels for the female lead, i couldn't feel the same emotions on the female lead's part which was really sad. however, the story kept me invested and i was eager to see how sua's fakeness would unfold in the end...overall it was a satisfying ending
