First of all, I am going to start with the story. I am totally confused, taking into account the story as a whole and cannot comprehend why did they drop to give an answer to the mistery with whom episode 1 has begun despite prolonging the drama for 2 more episodes. Also, it was obvious that the main focus was randomly changing, from episode to episode. As if they had 4 different plots and were randomly picking each one for each set of episodes.
One of the things that gave this drama its charm was its actors. I would not agree that all of them were perfect in fulfilling their given role. One of the reasons would be the beforementioned fact that the story itself was sloppy, many of the questions drama had opened at the very beginning and promised to answer were not answered and roles of certain characters, who had the most impact on the story - were changing according to the story segments and figuring characters truly out was one of the most anxious things along with following the story. All of the main actors remained faithful to their own acting style and there were many scenes that made me truly laugh but then again, there were many "wtf" scenes that somehow made me question if writers were constrained with some type of pressure in terms of the finance, production, public opinion, etc. One of the reasons I felt like that, was the fact that even after revealing all the evil and illegal business the empress dowager had conducted - I still thought of her as a silly woman from 20 smth episodes before the last two episodes. Furthermore, killing off the main character because of conflict in actor's schedule contributed to the overall confusion added to the fact that some of the characters ended up being randomly added to the story based on the fact that even though they stepped in to reveal something rather big - their characters were unprepared to jump into constant segment changing and their significance was lost. They kept stepping into unnecessary melodramatic dangerous cliches that held my attention on their existence and that had given me another level of "wtf" face expressions.
When it comes to music, it was really solid and it was perhaps the only criteria in my opinion that deserves to be rated with higher than mediocre points.
Anyhow, I would recommend watching this show regardless of my overall review but be prepared for a "wtf" rollercoaster. Yet, it was a drama with great potential in my opinion.
