Though it had a sad ending, the storyline was different. I've watched many historical dramas, both fictional and fact-based, but they all share the same theme: an emperor can't make decisions emotionally. Consequently, some characters sacrifice their love, some endure dismal love lives, and some love stories reach completion only after facing many hardships and conspiracies.

What stood out to me in this drama was, first, the crown prince and crown princess lived happily and spent ample time together. His first wife never interfered in his love life. Second, the crown prince's younger brother loved and respected him, standing by his side faithfully. He was a benevolent person. Third, the crown princess's family members lived harmoniously, with no jealousy, hatred, or competition. In fact, they respected each other deeply.

What I did not like was the ending. The drama had 53 episodes, so at times, I felt listless, but I watched it with patience. To fully appreciate the story, you would need to watch it yourself.
