This is the first time I am writing a review, but I feel like I need to talk about this movie. I loved the setting and the cinematography, yet the whole historical aspect wasn't that important. What I liked most about this Drama was Sul Hee and the emotions she portrayed.

What made this movie good was, in my opinion, the intense (yet unreasonable (will talk about this later)) family conflict. We see Deok Gi and Sul Rang have this intense relationship full of hatred, love and the past. Their romance was tragic and everything about it seemed doomed. These two individuals have really gone crazy throughout the movie and the one suffering because of it was Sul Hee. Deok Gi and Sul Rang used Sul Hee the whole time as a toy in their revenge game.

Sul Hee was such a sad character, stuck in between the conflict of her parents and forced to mature and grow up within such a short time. Her parents drew her into their fight and revenge plan, leading to Sul Hees life being turned upside down. And the saddest part was, that there was nothing she could do about it since her parents just decided what her life and choices will be like.

Now onto the illogical part. Why were Deok Gi and Sul Rang doing all this stuff? So many choices remained with no explanation and even after everything was over the question remains. What was the point of starting this game? And was it worth it? The ending was great, but it still left a bitter taste. Was all that really necessary? I really wondered if, at the very end, Geok Gi and Sul Rang ever regretted what they did to that poor child.

So, I liked it very much. To me, it was an emotional, sad and beautiful movie, although somewhat illogical.
