Let's make a positive comment! Unlike others (it seems), I don't think the acting is bad. It's just that Goo Hye Sun plays a really hateful character, hence the strong reaction against her. I often saw dramas with acting far worse than this one so it doesn't bother me a bit. Plus, the plot seems interesting so far. Well, it does drag a bit at first but I'll still give it a try. (Currently watching episode 3 and still didn't use fast-forward for this one.)
Omg so the prime minister's ex wife died while she was with Yoon shi yoons brother! !???? :o Or I got it all wrong.…
I think you're right. My theory is that since her husband always left her alone, she came to love this other man and then had an accident. Discovering that, the Prime Minister felt betrayed but couldn't tell anything for the sake of his kids. So, it's not that he still loved his dead wife but he lost his trust in love after that.
Another explanation could be that he then though he couldn't save both his marriage and his political career. So he choose his country over his love life, blindly thinking his children were growing up fine.
Of course, both explanations aren't incompatible ;)
I watched the first two eps but didn't know what to think if it. I really din't see me shipping the two main leads…
Hi, hard to say if you already watched two episodes. As for me, I felt the same as you at first but it soon vanished. Honestly, it was very gradual which made it more "real" in a way. I loved how she started liking him after seing how righteous he was. Maybe because that's a quality I cherish A LOT ^^ lol I suggest you to try a third episode and stop if you still don't like it.
Doesn't this drama reminds you of The Painter of the Wind where the main actress played as well ? I hope there…
I agree, she seems more feminine in this drama somehow. Maybe because we saw her as a girl before seeing her as a boy, which wasn't the case in The Painter of the Wind... But she may not change back to a girl so soon. After all, if the prince denounces her, she might be kicked out and he won't want that if he finds out about her real identity.
Doesn't this drama reminds you of The Painter of the Wind where the main actress played as well ? I hope there will be just as much gender-bender in this one ^^
That's strange, I think the synopsis here might be wrong. I just went on HanCinema site and no actress seems to…
Thanks for your answer. No, noone edited it : "and meets an actress who looks just like the Joseon Queen he served and was secretly in love with." If there is someone who look just like another in another time period, I figured it should be the same actress playing a double role. Well, I could edit it myself but, after only four episodes, it's not enough to know if it's actually this way or not.
That's strange, I think the synopsis here might be wrong. I just went on HanCinema site and no actress seems to play a double role. Their synopsis is just "A romanctic comedy drama about a classic scholar who arrives 300 years into the modern times from the Chosun through time warp and meets a delinquent actress."
Is it a happy ending ? (Please, don't forget to tick the spoiler box.)

Does anyone know where to watch this one ?
