Se-ja-ga Sa-ra-jyeott-da

Hong Ye-ji plays plays Choi Myung-yoon who is the daughter of the chief Physician for the King in this Joseon era comedy drama. With the usual scheming with these period dramas the Crown Prince Yi Geon (Suho) is kidnapped by her father and she believes he is a scholar and the story then develops with all the plotting of the inner court vying for power. The story is quite entertaining because even though I did not agree with the actions of some of the baddies they actually had a back story where you could sympathise with the reasons they did what they did. Even though it is billed as a romantic comedy only the first few episodes and the end of the final episode had light moments with the majority of time taken up with a serious plot and counter plot. The acting was good with a believable romance but I deducted a point as this show had the most annoying character who seemed to change his mind every episode and was just the writers being lazy and using him to drive the plot.
