Bloody Heart

The drama had a good selection of cast with decent varied performances. Jang Hyuk working double and triple shifts here. It had some interesting characters, especially Gye Won which I feel we didn't get enough of him. While the story may have been fine for the first half but it took a worse direction in the second half, losing whatever interest and build up it had previously. The keyword here is "odd" regarding the state of the production. Odd and questionable choices of the soundtracks, some of which didn't fit. Odd and questionable shot compositions and editing. Some shots had slightly different lighting or color grading of the same scene. The drama is filled with very long takes/shots that were too annoying after the 3rd time, it came off as a poor attempt in trying to mimic film, most of them didn't hit right. The only highlights of this drama were the intriguing 1st half and the character Park Gye Won.

I am still watching bloody heart, i like it very very much.

Till now, everything is good.

The acting is also very professional. I need to mention lee joon and how he delivers the emotions easily

i ll rate this drama after i finish all the episodes, i hate sad endings, so ill keep watching.

I love historical K dramas. I was hesitant to watch it because I like series with happy ending, sue me. I love the way it started with the privilege-ness of the crown prince. Then, he was taken down more than a couple of pegs. What I loved is that this series left me anxious each episode to find out what would happen next. I want to say I inhaled this series because I could not wait to see what was going to happen next. It felt like a game of chess. I love the king and what I think he is going to become. The only thing is he shouldn't sleep with the Royal concubine, she is not worth the hassle.

Has some of the best plot twists I've seen in a kdrama. Each episode ending keeps you wanting more. Would highly recommend to someone who enjoys historical romance-political dramas.

I would have rated it 4 stars but Kang Han Na saves this drama with her great acting skills. Jang Hyuk is excellent as the foil that you can't quite figure out, and Park Ji-Yeon adds much as the Queen Dowager. No knock against Lee Joon's acting, but they did you wrong with that character. Yoon Seo-A is that wonderful supporting character, as court lady Ttong-Geum, that makes you smile every time she's on screen.

Bloody Heart is a kdrama that seemed to search for an identity, had many confusing false starts, and then felt rushed at the conclusion. It was similar to Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo (an excellent kdrama), but in the end didn't impress me as much.
