Viggi Dec 03 2021 9:51 pm Loved the intensity of emotion s displayed by the actors. Such a beautiful relationship between the two main characters and love watching a few times

Sambong Jul 13 2021 9:47 pm This is better than the drama in KBS

A+ Nov 09 2020 9:57 am This is such a great film! The plot is simple and yet the superior execution, the breathtaking cinematography and the outstanding performances of both Han Suk kyu and Choi Min shik make this one of the best historical films out there. Shows you that you don’t need an over the top war and action scenes to create an impactful and emotion-filled film. These actors are indeed legends of their own crafts. They really owned their roles.

Hwangjini Sep 22 2020 12:52 am Like this movies.....the actor totalitas, n so sad story

Grace Jul 12 2020 7:49 am Just watched this film, dang. This So Heartbreaking. Like you can not do anything for your best friend, I am kinda agree if people said soulmate is not always your spouse or something like that. The King and Jang Yeon Shil are soulmate. Han Suk Kyu and Choi Min Sik are trully have agreat chemistry together!

P.s : kinda sad that actually in the real life too, Jang Yeong Shil's record stop at He flogged as the one who responsible for the broken sedan chair. so sad.
