Another great drama with Song Il Guk! Not as epic as Jumong, but still a good watch!

I appreciate them but please, just simple English! It's very difficult to quickly read the uncommon and unnecessarily hifalutin' vocabulary in these subtitles. "]

This series proves that you don't need 60+ episodes to tell a good historical tale. Exciting action (though unbelievable at times), solid acting, effective story, epic music and deft direction. Granted, the characters and subplots are not as colorful as those in Jumong, but this series gets a lot of things right. I also think Song II Kuk did a better job here than in Jumong. Kudos especially to the actor who played King Yuri... an astonishing portrayal. And last but not least, Dojin...what a fascinatingly tragic character he turned out to be. Loved it.
