The 'human antidote' trope, but in period-drama dress. Got my hopes up because of Ki Hyun-woo, but the story's a bit too by-the-numbers, so it's a little disappointing. It's a sageuk in costume only. Ki Hyun-woo's tears got me choked up though. I like the quick pacing but overall it's just so-so.
Episode 1 might make you go "what IS this lunatic" and bail. He's my favorite short-drama actor and even I hesitated. Please stay with it!! The acting is unreal, the way his eyes go, the way he smiles, each one gets me >_<
