Most of the action scene/war with horses are poorly done. Horses are not in good shape, most of the action are the same repeatedly done throughout every action scenes... If you cannot master war or horse fight scenes don't do it, waist of time to develop the plot really. I think they could have done it more simple with less action and be still spectacular, clearly trying to do like any big American series/ production without the skills. The plot lack more character development.. Also I noticed a lot of criticism about the costume not accurate. I think they were trying to show the characters in a dark way with some sex scenes, but it might too much for the "genre"

Why does she have only one expression? Also she looks and sounds like a literal child in those costumes. It seems like the crown/headdress will fall over and cover her entire face at any moment lol. The writing was terrible as well. The scenes look disjointed and I am no prude with R rated scenes but there should be a reason for their existence in the series. It felt too contrived, like trying to generate publicity though controversy in a somewhat conservative country using those scenes. Some of the night scenes were a hard watch, couldnt tell whats going on. I think the King actor carried the drama for me and some of the other actors did pretty good job as well.

I'm suprised about the emotional backlashes here! I believe the * scenes were important to emphasize how women were treated in her journey of uprising which gave it even more strength when she eventually took her Throne! And I was glad that they stopped just before the war! Because the whole shows focus of the show is on the uprising of the queen and its irrelevant what happened in the war! It ended exactly on the point were people stood behind her to save and protect their kingdom: Her raising to the throne! That was the main point of the whole series! And I'm suprised how Imdb is rating this so low!

If you are someone who appreciated shows like GOT im sure you will like this korean style GOT type of drama. This show gives a dark eery vibe with alot of s3x and nudity. Big applause to Jeon Jongseo, lee soo hyuk and ji changwook for pulling it off the way they did. Amazing screenplay and cinematography and plot. It's really sad to see people give such low ratings to this masterpiece. As a seasoned historical drama watcher this is quite literally one of the best historical kdrama i've watched. Just because ur not into this specific genre does not mean this is a bad show. It simply means u have no taste. The way it ended I'm guessing there's gonna be a season 2. Cant wait for season 2. Hopefully it wont get canceled.

I do not consider this serie a classical kdrama but a very interesting historical series. I found it realistic and intense. I know there were several issue about costumes and other historical matters but as an ignorant foreign I can't appreciate the accuracy. Great performances indeed by all the cast. The action scenes are very well made, they give the right level of suspance. There is violence, cruelty and sex as there were in that historical era. I appreciate such an ending, it gives the opportunity to study what happened to discover a piece of history that we don't know. It deserves more visibility.

Here waiting patiently for part 2. This is the best historical kdrama i've watched in a while. Amazing screen play/cinematography. The actors did amazing especially the female lead. And lee soo hyuk?? I knew he would never disappoint. I think everyone who's complaining about the Nudity and s3x scenes (possibly kids) are people who are just not used to this kind of genre. Cause this is far from your average historical kdrama. If you are someone who's bothered by that type of scenes than this ain't for you. I personally find this show very thrilling. It definitely deserves a watch. Wishing it would have more episodes than 8.

I dont understand the low ratings at alll ???. The story is super intense and the plots never stop coming !! . not everyday do u see a female war protagonist esp in kdramas. LOVE jeon jeong seo inhere. The cast is amazing the acting is amazing the storyline is amazing. Altho there is some of gore n nudity here and there, it keeps you hooked until the end ! Infact i finished this in a day and the whole time i was so tensed up. Cant wait for the other season to drop so i can binge watch again hehe. PLS give it a try , will not disappoint at all !!! This a must if youre into war, period pieces and esp jeon jeong so ;))

With all the hype and controversies, I was hoping that this would be a memorable saeguk to add to the list of many excellent saeguk dramas already produced. Nevertheless, despite the line of cast that I deem as amazing actors, the story failed to engage prolonged interest. Most importantly, the drama failed to portray the essence of how the queen would be in her wise and strong persona. Maybe it's too short? Does the result of the war to defend the throne unimportant to the director, that he ended the drama at the war scene? Does it not matter who won the war? Did the treacherous brothers of the dead king got punished? Waste of time, seriously.

The historical interest was great whether it was true or not didn't matter. What was unnecessary was the added sexual perversion that did nothing except distract from the storyline, and degraded good acting and actors. A season 2 might be enjoyable if they took time to make the storyline a little bit more interesting and you don't need weird sex to make that happen you just need good writers. Again the weird sex is not needed everybody has an imagination and we get it but all that weirdness does is illuminate the fact that the writers needed something to distract from their inability to create a good storyline.

This is not like K-Drama style. They ruined the K-Drama style with immoral scenes. Now I will not be able to watch the work of the actors in this series. Another series. I couldn't even rid this work of drama. I hope that the style of Korean drama will remain as it was in the past and not become like other dramas. And everyone who loves this type of drama, you are helping to preserve Korean drama in this same inappropriate style. I hope the future series of K-Drama not like this of style or like this type of immoral scenes I hope the will do better than this and you should do better than this ..
