A BLOODED PALACE
The series primarily narrates infighting between Royal wives in the Namyeongbu (Inner Court). For some Reason you get to enjoy watching women vying for power and supremacy and another reason that I loved the series was because I was so caught up with the endless scheming of the female leads and the villains.There is so much Political intrigue and the Constumes were very splendid moreso the dialogue and while the drama tends to depict how strong the women are, for a while they have stolen the show from men who tend to dominate in a number of sageuks.
The Plot too is very original and even though sticking to historical accounts you don't feel the story too boring you are simply caught up in the endless drama and every character is loveable because for some reason the intensity of their ploys got me hooked and on edge.
The drama being 60 episodes isn't as boring and surely you might feel discouraged but I don't know why I am a fan of long series that is between 50 to 90 Episodes, moreso if you feel like tasting what a real poisonous harem is then this is a very good series to pick up courage and watch
Lastly the schemes lack monotony so you won't see them repeating themselves over and over again which makes a large number of them original you won't stop loving them.
I'd highly recommend this sageuk if you haven't yet tried it.

WOW. An amazing drama.
This is an incredible show. There are so many twists and turns. It is 60 episodes long, but I was never once bored. It is absolutely riveting with continuous jaw-dropping action.The acting is top notch with so many actors delivering memorable performances.
I had no idea about the actual history heading into this drama, so I was constantly surprised and intrigued. Bonus: it is historically accurate. (Though I would suggest NOT looking up the history until the end, to avoid spoiling yourself.)
I have watched over 160 dramas and this is the first time I've felt compelled to write a review. This drama is truly an epic masterpiece, spanning many staggering events.
