2. Comedy Galore
While it’s still early in the series, there has been no dull moment for the historical rom-com.

Both SoRang and Lee Heon have eccentric personalities that makes the drama feel exciting and fresh. The comedy isn’t only reserved for our two main leads, but is evenly spread out between their relationships with the supporting cast.
