Synopsis
Hirit Rangsiman, the pearl farm's owner in the south of Thailand, is very angry and vengeful after Harin, his only younger brother commit suicide because Sansanee, Harin girlfriend, breaks up with him.
Harit wants to take vengeance on a girl who cause his brother's death, so he kidnaps her to torture, but he doesn't know that a girl who he kidnaps is Soraya, Sansanee's cousin. He still believe that Soraya is Sansanee no matter how Soraya tries to tell him. Soraya wants to repay her debt of gratitude to Sansanee because Sansanee used to save her life from drowning, so she accept this punishment instead of her beloved cousin.

My Opinion
Loved the characters that were picked to act for this drama. I love the feisty love that was going on between Soraya and Harit. It really makes your heart jump for the both of them when watching their scenes. I really liked Harit's blunt character on how he would just say what's on his mind or feeling, instead of holding back weather it's sweet or revengeful. Soraya's character on the other hand, I really didn't enjoy. I didn't like how her character was too weak and didn't stand up for her own self to a certain extent. I understand that her character is suppose to be a sweet, kind, lovable, and graceful but when you compare it to reality it's too unbelievable. So that was one of the downfall of the movie. I wish they could have had more affection scenes between Harit and Soraya to make up for all the wrongs Harit made Soraya go through at the beginning. I think they should have made Soraya get a little revengeful towards Harit since Harit already assume Soraya has a Lover back at home waiting for her. So he'll know the pain he had put her through for all the time being with him. Over all the movie is a great movie and I was stuck thinking about it for a couple of day. So that must mean something, right?! Lol.

The story evolves to focus onto the political tensions of the time and Yi San’s struggles to accede to the throne first then the achievement of some his innovative ideas for a new Joseon.

My Opinion
I am in love to Lee Seo Jin and his killer dimples lol! By far this is the best K-Drama I've watch this year. I know I am late on this fantastic drama but I am very satisfy with the outcome of it. To the point where I actually got a bit sad once I realize I was was approaching the ending. Over all - all the characters in this drama showed their true emotion and passion weather if they were played as the good guy or villain. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who loves the Korean Traditional weather is is clothing, food, poetry, or just anything about Korea. I know that the 77 episode might be a little intimidating but I promise you that once you start an episode it leaves you wanting more. If I can recall I actually finish this drama within 3week! I was really pushing myself to watch as much as I can weather it was before work, after work, or on weekend. I still remember those crazy long nights I find myself staying up till 2am-3am in the morning just clicking episode after another not realizing that within a few hour I'll have to be up for a new day. Lol. If you're unsure and don't want to waste your time watching half way and realizing that this drama isn't for you. I do highly recommend just randomly picking a few episode/part(beginning or middle) to watch and see if this drama is your type or taste. I hope everyone does give it a try! I will be purchasing a copy of this drama to call it my own - that's how much I LOVE it!
-Enjoy
