Quite Boring Drama
11 November 2014
Warning: Spoilers
This drama is what can i say firstly i watched it because of Jung Yunho of TVXQ who was acting as the guard mooseok in this drama, then when the story goes on I felt that the plot is rather slow and dramatical especially Jung Il Woo's he was portraying a prince who obviously overthrown of his rightfully right as the king but tried to cover this with his carefree lifestyle, I found Jung Il Woo portraying his character too melodramatic and his expression is not different with his other ancient drama "the moon that embraces the sun". I am surely disappointed with this slow story, the development of the main heroine character which cannot bring the best out of her instead acting lame and predictable with such a boring facial expression. The bad guys in this drama is the good points of watching it since his acting as villain is good and acceptable, while the man who was acting as the first king or Rin's (Jung Ill Woo) father is better than the main hero here. Jung Yunho show very matured acting compare to his last drama "king of ambition", he was a guard who hid his sadness because his sister died when she was very young left him alone in this world, his emotion and sadness especially his eyes when Moosoek (Yunho's character) being betrayed by his most respectful person is truly great.

I feel disappointed to see jung il woo as the main lead here it should be changed to Jung Yunho since Yunho's acting is what keeping the audiences to watch this drama not because of the predictable plot or because the boring love story between the main leads. Those who bias and said idols cannot acting is really blind and shouldn't be judging themselves higher compare to other people.

The best soundtrack is sang by Shim Changmin of TVXQ, listening well to other ost it cannot be compared to changmin's song since it has more felling and the vocal is not in doubt, the lyric is describing Mooseok's feeling but it played on rin's scenes I have a feeling Jung Yunho was mistreated here because he is originally a singer.
