I am not the biggest fan of sageuk dramas, but Maids is one of the best dramas I have ever seen. I love the detail of the costumes. I noticed at the end In Yub has the flowers of Sa Wol on her lapel which is a nice subtle touch. I experienced every emotion from crying to angry to happy. Sometimes I would find myself gripping my hands in anger and other times I would find myself absentmindedly smiling. Dramas that make me emotional are some of my favorites. The perspective of the writing is unique. I admit at first I didn't like any of the characters and almost dropped the drama. However, there is great believable character development that led me to understand and even like some of the characters (especially the female lead). The best part is the strength of the female lead character. She learns a lot about life and herself and we get to watch the journey. There are some politics, but there aren't numerous scenes of old people setting around talking about whatever scheme they will come up with next. The romance is really nice and I think they all had chemistry. I even like the ending. It made since to me that she would make the choice that she made. After all she just went through quite a lot and needed some peace. The acting is really good in this. My favorite character is Lee Cho Hee's Sa Wol. She is a strong, loyal friend that is also sweet and caring. Jung Yoo Mi was perfect as In Yub. After watching several actresses lately with stone faces or overacting, it was nice to see an actress get it right. She shows her emotions with out it being obviously acting and it is believable. I ended up liking her character quite a bit. I have never seen Oh Ji Ho before. I think he did a good job as Moo Myeong. I think it is hard to be a quiet but emotional character, but Oh Ji Ho pulled it off well. Poor Kim Eun Gi. Kim Dong Wook portrayed the character's sweet and cold sides very well. I felt sorry for this character the most. He faced everything even his own short comings. It must have been hard for him. The other actors are good too. There is really good music in this even if it doesn't have words. I won't rewatch this, but it is rewatchable. I recommend this drama to everyone no matter what genre you prefer. It is really good.
