Bloody Heart

Has some of the best plot twists I've seen in a kdrama. Each episode ending keeps you wanting more. Would highly recommend to someone who enjoys historical romance-political dramas.

I really enjoyed this movie. Every episode left one yearning for more. Councilor Park was on point. The King as well. Infact. All the actors and actresses made it all so real. I am surprised it's not listed as one of the best historical"s ever. Lady Park who latter became the queen's role was perfect in the first half, the second half she was rather too serious. It would have been nice to see her smile more. But still, the Queen Dowagers love and character were spot on I loved it truly. I would recommend all historical lovers to watch this. I would rank it high up.there as it's all so.unpredictable.

Korean Drama "Bloody Heart" is a feast of beautiful camerawork, excellent lighting, atmospheric settings, and just right costumes.

The story starts strongly, and the love story sets strong foundations for what is there to come next. And yet, what does come next is a letdown. It was boring more than anything, and the whole political battle lacked intensity and the right plot twists.

As for the performances, they were all great, and the main couple had chemistry.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

I would have rated it 4 stars but Kang Han Na saves this drama with her great acting skills. Jang Hyuk is excellent as the foil that you can't quite figure out, and Park Ji-Yeon adds much as the Queen Dowager. No knock against Lee Joon's acting, but they did you wrong with that character. Yoon Seo-A is that wonderful supporting character, as court lady Ttong-Geum, that makes you smile every time she's on screen.

Bloody Heart is a kdrama that seemed to search for an identity, had many confusing false starts, and then felt rushed at the conclusion. It was similar to Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo (an excellent kdrama), but in the end didn't impress me as much.

Bloody Heart was a series that shone in terms of acting, directing and especially writing. The script of the series was unpredictable and each episode was more exciting than the previous one. And the brilliant play of the main characters of the series had greatly improved the quality of the series. And all this made us see one of the best historical dramas of 2022 so far.
