Korean historical romantic dramas draw you in to an ahistorical world, relying on the power of the acting, compelling relationships between the protagonists and a propulsive plot to carry you along for the ride.
This series failed to do that for me. The romance was too anodyne and the plot meandered through the second half.
It is still moderately interesting entertainment if you rise above its shortcomings. But there are so many wildly entertaining examples of the genre that this pales by comparison.
