O Livro da Família Gu (2013)

Amazing!

Moving on... This is my 2nd rewatch! I still enjoyed it!

OMGosh I think I have found the actor to add to my top 10 list. Lee Seung Gi beat them out of the 10th spot, moving him into my 2nd spot. This is another actor with those great eyes and lips that are perfect with that dimple underneath to the right side (screen view), also another great kisser. Lee Seung Gi, "standing ovation" on your acting. Bae Suzy, wow, superb acting. I have seen you in other Dramas but the chemistry between you and Lee SeungGi is something else. Lee and Suzy enhanced each other, you make one another shine in your characters. I am impressed by this drama and Vagabond. Choi Jin Hyuk, wow they couldn't do this storyline without him, I just kept staring at the TV at how great looking he is. I mean, that costume he was wearing and the way they did his hair smoothly go over his face. He did an excellent job, he should've been part of the main leads. I love his emotional scene and made me cry. I so felt the characters' pain! I'm sorry but the rest of the cast did fantastic teamwork. The music was spot on. The visual effects were very visual. This KDrama had it all! I loved it! The ending wow 422 years later, what a perfect ending and it is epic! I'm not mad atcha!

I knocked off one point for the suicide scene. Why??? We need to stop adding suicides to the script, the rise of suicides is rising in this world and we surely don't need movies or dramas to amplify suicides. We are losing a lot of actors/actresses and those who follow these stars.

The first 2 episodes of this drama were so incredibly brutal with killing and rape (or attempted rape) taking up the majority of the plot. For me, I decided to drop this drama because, if the drama was going to be this dark and have such heavy and serious topics addressed in just the first 2 episodes, I decided it wasn't likely going to be a drama I enjoyed as a whole. I personally do not find entertainment in a story that portrays such dark, evil, and cruel topics. I will never deny the fact that history (in any country) is bloody, cruel, messy, and not somewhere we'd realistically like to live in, but that doesn't mean that I want to have all those atrocities on my television screen for me to visualize for entertainment. It's not entertaining to me, and I will admit that I enjoy romanticized historical tales. Sure, romanticized historical tales are not necessarily true to history, but that's the type of historical entertainment I fancy. So while there is nothing really wrong with this drama, *I* couldn't stomach the atrocities displayed on screen and I could not find the plot entertaining for my own personal tastes. People who will probably enjoy this drama, or at least, be drawn into the plot of this drama would be viewers who enjoyed Moon Lovers (which actually started off quite light and ended with similar tones I noticed in this drama).
