Sungkyunkwan Scandal

Very enjoyable. Background Plot was a little confusing with the King and who was with/against him, but the other storylines were so great.

Like many have said Song Joong-ki absolutely stole this drama. (Also he is a vampire cause aging? Where?) Every scene with him was just so much more than you normally get from a third or 4th lead. I'm actually picturing him in my mind as the lead on here and see it!

The other actors were mighty fine as well (minus the perpetual death stare from Ha In-Soo, rip to the actor)

Park Yoo-Chun (Seon-Joon) was so gorgeous in this drama. I miss the early 2010s and late 2000s when Korean men were still their natural light brown.

Park Min Young's role has been one of the only times I've actually believed a gender bender worked. She's pretty but not too pretty (just on the show. In real life, yes, she's pretty pretty!) Her voice was just soft enough to sound like a scrawny boy who was stunted in puberty.

Overall, great period piece, still a slow burn romance but it seems like there was enough action to keep me from salivating waiting on that first kiss.

It was funny when the two main characters shared the same room with the girl dressed as a boy. They were so confused if she was a boy or a girl. They fight over who sleeps next to him or her. It was really funny.

My favorite historical drama ever. Song Joong Ki was a scene stealer even back then, so easy to see how he developed so quickly into a leading man. The second lead syndrome WAS STRONG with Yoo In Ahs character. Plot was familiar but very well done. Highly recommended if you aren't a huge fan of historic dramas, plot and OTP will keep you distracted from the hats :p

The plot is well written. Leads all perform up to standard. Not a bad choice for entertainment.

Would have given 8 stars, but the last 5 episodes was super dragging that made me almost bored with watching it, hence reducing the star rating.
