So not wasting time, this drama has a very strong ML and FL. ML is intelligent and powerful in combat, while FL is intelligent mainly in war strategy/survival techniques. Both are fully devoted to one another, no one can tear them apart so for those that hate second lead syndrome, dont worry about that even though FL is loved by someone else too. I honestly do not understand where a lot of people stated the FL acting isnt great because it captivate me to continue to watch mainly for her. I felt she act what she suppose to be as the character of this story even though I did not read the book. IMO, FL was great, you can see her happy, sad, Angry, Confident to a cocky feel emotions thoughout the drama. This is my kind of drama as well. Hope you all give this a chance and see for yourself. And btw, it has a Happy ENDING, an historical drama with a happy ending, uncommon these days, but common for those that only strive to watch them.
