I watch a lot of Korean television series, although usually with more of a crime/corruption/conspiracy angle. However, my K-drama queue was a little lean and this did have strong reviews so I gave it a go. I'm glad I did. Exceeded expectations.

Great cast and cast chemistry. Solid production values including the sets for the Joseon era. Good writing both in terms of the broad plot and related subplots as well as the dialogue. Thanks to the visits to the Joseon era, viewers will be introduced to a couple of historical figures from the time. While time travel is the foundation of the show's premise, it doesn't trouble viewers with the paradoxical nature of time travel and its implications. More writers of time travel shows should also avoid it, few handle such matters well. To the extent the writers want to encourage more philosophical ponderings, it is more about the differences, and similarities, between Joseon-era and modern Korea.

Satisfying conclusion - be certain to watch to the very end: there is a brief coda after the final episode's credits which will give the viewer a last smile about the conclusion.

If you are looking for a Korean drama with a strong dose of humor, a modest amount of romance and an interesting story, I'd highly recommend it. If you're new to the world of K-dramas, it might be a good introduction.

I'm not a particular fan of South Korean movies, but when I saw this title in my Netflix list I said: "Why not, let's give it a try".

And it really touched something in me. It mixes drama with comedy in an insane manner and you really never know what to expect from one episode to another. To tell you the truth, I wasn't sure how it's going to end until I actually saw the last 3-4 minutes of the last episode.

The actress "Kim Ah Joong" is one of the most expressive and sensitive performers I've ever seen and she could easily play in any Hollywood blockbuster drama.

And I haven't seen any of those sudden plot twists that are present in many US / UK shows and which are supposed to make events more dramatic, but in truth, they decrease the show's quality. Nope, not going to see that here.

All-in-all, I really recommend this show. It's not long, but it's actually really good and it deserves every star I gave it.

Amazing Drama <3 Trust me you'll not regret watching it! Do yourself a favour and start watching it. Watched 100s of dramas so far and I can say this is one of the best drama! Better than King the eternal monarch and many other dramas! So underrated! Don't miss this amazing gem <3

I loved this one. I don't know why I won't rate 10 stars. It's actually 9.5. 10 stars are for the ones that will stay with me forever. Still. This was really good. Medical accuracy aside, I can't really think of a flaw. Maybe the ending. Doesn't make sense. But I'll let it slide because this show has brought me a lot of strong emotions.

Mostly, I came here to congratulate the main actor. His performance was really impressive. I'm getting used to Korean actors being very good, but this role was difficult. He had to act lustful, greedy, selfish, kind, warm-hearted, cold, desperate, stunned, stupid, sharp, brilliant, cute, name it. And he did everything with pitch accuracy. I can never forget the moment when he first stands as a modern man after his speech. The glance towards the girl. That glance. It had to say " See? Where I stand? Without your help. After you treated me like s**t!" And it said just that.

The lead actress was very good too.

My favourite character was of course the baby pig. OMG, so cute!!!

Ah. Black people. Actually having a part in the story. Wow.

Totally a outstanding drama. Not just a love story, this drama will teach you your duty for your country, people. I love the story of this drama,and From every angle this drama was too perfect. But their happy ending could have been at least 10-15 minute.
