Only for Bo gummy

This is a fairly typical historic romance between poor girl (pretending to be a man - minus Adam's apple size and strength) and a crown prince with a powerless Emperor father who is dominated by his vicious scheming wife and her power hungry family. I often wonder why Emperors allow their ministers to have armies and influence. They must have been a fairly foolish bunch. As usual they play around with the gay dialogue "I am a man - but I love you" of course nobody minds because we know "He" is a woman.

The story progresses - it goes on and on and on. Of course there is a triangle - but his end was never in doubt.

There was far too much political scheming and endless scenes of Ra-on with her eyes downcast being noble. Park Bo-Gum made up for it all with his charm and charisma and good acting. I liked his bodyguard also. One question - why is this dated 1996? He was born in 1993 ?!!
