100 Days My Prince

Realistic plot but the last part ruins every episode beneath such a very low-impact ending.

This was a first of its kind for me and I liked it a lot. I liked the love story between the prince and his childhood friend. I don't know much about the history of this time but there was a lot of sword fighting between regimes. A lot of backstabbing. And, a lot of modern day drama applicable then. There was a lot of servitude. The movie depicted life then and that was informative. The characters were very well appointed.

The drama started good and the lead couples had chemistry but episode 16 was completely ridiculous with no story whatsoever. so go ahead and watch the drama but stop after 10 min of episode 16.

D.O. was perfectly cast as the Crown Prince with amnesia! His natural faraway gaze gave his character the lost look of someone struggling to remember who he is. He played his character stoically and credibly. I loved him in this series! I rated it a 9 only because there were a few "holes" in the story that were never filled or explained, but D.O.'s portrayal rates a 10!!!

Two-thirds of this drama is charming, lovable, and often funny. When it is tragic, it is also touching. The cast is wonderful and worked hard. Many supporting actors are as good as the leads-often true in the best KDramas-and two 2nd ML held their own with DO. It was all good, and I had a great time. Then the writer seemed to lose her way or interest in the story. She wastes time with nonsense side plots, tedium, and silliness with the main characters, and the opportunity to close a great love story with the joy it deserved. Even the adorable leads seemed to lose their way and the chemistry they had in the rest of the drama. Then the writer simply hastily ended, but I didn't care because the story's energy was sucked out of it. I still enjoyed most of it, just disappointed in the flat closure.
