Saimdang, diario de luz

My review is a simple one. The storyline for me was majestic from the plot beginnings to the end. My only dislike was the scenes with the simpleton concubine & Saimdang's husband. These ludicrous segments could have reduced the run time for sure while portraying the husband as weak-minded, simpleton, henpecked male. I wouldn't have liked the weak husband's mindset to take things his wife worked so hard to achieve to keep her children & the vagabonds success on the rise to become more respected as a society. He should never have taken all of Saimdang's paintings from her home to be sold by this gold digger without her knowledge. The weak husband should've been strong enough to tell the simpleton vagabond hands off his true wife's successes.

Other than this irritating addition to the storyline I continue to embrace the brilliant storytelling with the final wish that Saimdang would have made the extra effort to be with the very handsome Lord (Guyeom) forever - they both were so right for each other. Her children had already seemed to like & accept him as a good person. I hated seeing him bugged-eyed & crazy looking when only trying to do the right thing for her and the monarchy's government.

Accept my 10 stars for this magnificent & epic story. Thank you.
