Ha Ji Won is one of my favourite actresses and I have high expectation for this drama. This is the first Sageuk drama that she played before Hwang Jini (2006). She did a good job in portraying Chae Ok a female detective. I can feel the pained feeling of Chae Ok in her love life that cannot fall on love with Hwangbo Yoon because of her social status and also for her forbidden love with Jang Sungbaek. She did most of the stunt actions by herself. This drama full of actions and all the actors played their roles well. This is a good drama and heart breaking at the same time. I will suggest this drama if this is the first time you want to watch Saeguk drama because typical Korean Sageuk drama will have more than 50th episodes.
