A thrilling and captivating sageuk
"who are you?", she asked.
He responded, "me? I'm your man."
This extract is from a scene I chanced on that piqued my interest in this drama.
Love song for illusion narrates an arresting tale of sacrifices for power, love and revenge. The story unfolds in the Asatae Kingdom. Prince Sajo Hyun who's considered a weaklin by his father suddenly develops a personality disorder (two conflicting personalities in his body) after seeing his father brutally murdering an entire family. His other personality goes by the name "Ahkee". As fate would like it to be, prince Sajo Hyun crosses paths with the only surviving daughter of the household his father murdered, Yeon Wol, whose thirst for revenge seems unquenchable.
The plot is quite fresh, thrilling, interesting and has an engaging and swift narrative. The way in which the story develops, the unexpected twists, great dialogue and character development are this drama's greatest strength. The drama has scenes that draws in viewers and keeps them completely hooked and engaged. Although action-packed, the drama has poignant scenes which appeals to audience emotionally.
One thing that sets love song for illusion apart from other dramas is its unique love triangle. In this drama, the love triangle is between a woman and two men who share the same body (Sajo hyun/Ahkee). This becomes another source of conflict bringing more suspense, intrigue and anticipation.
The chemistry between the leads, Sajo hyun and Yeon wol is palpable. Their deep affection and the length they're willing to go for each other is greatly felt in the drama. Their romance even feels sweeter as they overcome challenges together. They give some delightful lovers moments which is heartwarming.
The drama is full of wonderful characters. Each actor fervently performed their role by bringing authenticity to their characters making the story more compelling. The most incredibly played character is that of Sajo hyun/Akhee which was played by Park Ji Hoon. I am not exactly a fan of Park Ji Hoon but this is his third drama I've watched and he is very good. He really played the dual personality role well. The switch in language, attitude, facial expression, tone and demeanor were perfectly done.
This drama has made it to my list of most enjoyed dramas and i highly recommend it. It's a solid 10/10 for me.
