Trivia
Joon-gi Lee was originally supposed to play the lead role but had to drop because of his mandatory military service.

Goofs
Modern Korean uses "Borrow Words" (especially English) to such an extent that the average South Korean can't get through the day without using them. While this series does a good job making fun of modern v.s. Goryeo concepts, the Goryeo characters keep using borrow words from modern English.

Awesome!!

This is a drama in which the writer has deftly used the history, mythology, and Korean legends along with a bit of fantasy to weave a beautiful and powerful story.

A Tale of Love across Time: The love story of Choi Young and Eun Soo is sure to tug the viewers' heartstrings. This love across centuries, love defying time, will be a hit among romantics. From making her learn the way of their world to protecting her from innumerable death traps, Choi Young is falling for Eun Soo, even though he knows he has to keep his promise to her, to help her return to her world. And Eun Soo changes her perspective from seeing him as her kidnapper to the only one she can trust in the unknown world of past, and to be with him becomes a habit she's reluctant to change. The gradual falling in love is beautifully portrayed in this period drama, while the question 'will she return?' refuses to cease anyone's mind.
