I think the show is wonderful. It portrays tenacity on Hae Ryung's part, the way she uses logic to persuade her cause through. Witty and intriguing especially when it involves second Councillor. On the other hand it is also heart-wrenching esp on Prince Dowon part in his ability to endure emotional hardship.. But the ending somewhat conflicts with my values - The part they didnt get married (disappointing for me) I do think the drama wants to show a modern side of things, injecting western values, but i believe that you can be advanced in technology but still have noble values -
