I watched the original cdrama and loved it. This one on the other hand was captivating, mesmerizing and haunting. I kept feeling i was in a fantasy world and hated whenever i was interrupted from watching as i was brought back to reality. I don't know it it's the cast, characters, cinematography or the OST, but this drama had me with so many feelings; happiness, overjoy, sadness and many more i don't know how to explain.
This drama left me with so many Wow moments and heartaches and it still haunts my mind. That's just how amazing it's.

What I liked:

The cast, characters and OST especially: Lee Hi - Can You Hear My Heart and Jung Seung-Hwan - Wind.

What I disliked:

What happened to some characters although I knew it was inevitable as i watched the original but this a kdrama I knew it was going to be different, but i was still taken by surprise again and again and again. And what Hae Soo's been through is much more and worse than in the original. Also this version lacked the close relationship between the 13th prince and 4th prince and 13th prince and Hae Soo as in the original.

I will definitely rewatch it again but not so soon as the story is still stuck in my head and heart.

fun fact:

I had to start watching this drama 3 times before completing it. The first time, i knew i was going to love it so after watching 4 episodes i stopped and waited till the drama is completed. the second time, i watched maybe up to ep 12 or 14 then i stopped because i was afraid of what's going to happen and didn't think i could handle it. The third time i said to myself that this time I'm going to finish it no matter what and so i binge watched it for 2 days and experienced the feeling of being sucker punched in the gut and heartaches so many times but i don't regret watching it.

if you are not a kdrama addict, then this drama will make you one.
