Subtle and magnificent. The drama has action , diplomacy and one of the most elegant and classy love stories. When I was at first considering to watch it I was thinking that it is going to be too long with every episode with long durations but when I started watching it, time typically flied. Left with a different type of heartbreak in the end. The cinematography is so beautiful, the angles of direction are so unique and new . I fell in love with the backgrounds. I fell in love with Lady Ae-Shin and Captain Eugene Choi... Not forgetting to mention Hina Kudo, Dung Mae, Ms. Haman... (oh God everyone was so good) It was great to see so many historic cultures in one show (western, josean, Japanese)
