Interesting Story

This was a pretty good drama. Was it 10/10? No, but it's not horrible either. The acting was fine. There could've been better acting direction from the Director in a couple of the scenes, but for the most part, it was decent. The cast was good as far as I'm concerned. Didn't have a problem with any of them. The story could've been fleshed out a bit more. The basic foundation was there, but the further on it went, the more flatline it got. Could've done with a bit more fleshing out. Fight scenes were great, though the rope work could've used a bit more discipline in a couple of the scenes. All in all, they weren't too bad though. There were a few scenes that something happened that should've been addressed, but wasn't. Her knowing how to turn off the arrow mechanisms in Watermill should've been addressed by her husband, but was never mentioned. Things like that.

Now as for the chemistry between the leads, it was good. I think people had a problem with it cause the love was such a slow burn. Very slow burn. But I enjoyed watching them slowly come to love and understand and cherish each other. It made the latter scenes more emotional and poignant when the villainous plots finally hit. I cried during those scenes. They were very moving. I especially enjoyed watching them fight together. Absolutely loved those scenes. Also, I'm not the type of person who likes it when the characters trip and fall in love. For me there needs to be a catalyst to cause the emotion to spark between them. My personal taste. This drama delivered on that for me. Now as for the maid, I can understand why people had a problem with her, but it doesn't last very long. Though the writer probably could've cut it off after the second or third time. It didn't make or break the drama for me though. Overall, if you're looking for a fast paced story action adventure, this is not for you. If, however, like myself, you're looking for something that's slow with a slow burn romance with some decent fight scenes when they happen, this is for you. I was looking for something that was a nice break from the emotional roller coaster of some of the more intense dramas. This fit the bill nicely. So, if you need an emotional and mental break from the more intense dramas and just want to chill out and relax, this drama will do it for you.
