Rookie Historian Goo Hae-Ryung

First of all just treat it as fantasy. There were no female history writers of this time and an unmarried 26 year old woman would not have been allowed. Just enjoy the great sets and costumes, a story that zips along over 20 episodes and some really great comedy, Shin Se-Kyung is lovely and plays her self rather than acts as such. Cha Eun-Woo has the right sense of nievteand wonder. The comedy is spot on and laugh out loud. The story is preposterous but fun with a good ending. Enjoyed this a lot.

I really like the story about the historians. I didn't know how powerful a historian can be. They have to be objective in writing to describe people and events. They cannot be persuaded to change the history because future generations will depend on it. Characters are great actors. Eunwoo and Se Kyung has great chemistry. I can't wait to see Eunwoo in more adult roles.

I'm surprised that not many people have commented how funny the show is, especially the romantic naivety of the Prince and the clownish ensemble of Historians. Some really hilarious moments - I'd definitely call it a comedy-drama.

Good plot, great characters, lovely romance, beautiful sets and costumes. 1000 times better than any historic Korean drama of the past.

I loved everything about this show. For me it was perfect. Beautiful scenery, thoughtful plot, adorable leads. I know little of the culture, but I was transported into another world. A lovely historical fairytale.
