I started it but I stop at some point... not sure why though. Maybe the political story line. Though it was interesting too. Kind of a stop like in the middle of a 2000 pages book. :-)

It's 77 episodes loooooooong... like (7*10)+7 and NOT 10+7 episodes.... Are you sure you can handle that????

I'll see how it goes :)

I LOVED Yi San, because it struck the right chord with me on the most basic level - San's moving struggle to hold off his enemies and ascend the throne, and the beautiful love story ♥ Nothing intelligent like Conspiracy in the Court, but still...

Tbh, CitC was TOO brainy for me - I got confused at all the intrigue and it didn't help that I kept confusing the characters for one another :)

I think that's where Lee Byung Hoon does best as a director. He'd never be critically acclaimed, but he really knows how to make something a good watch for the mass public. Court faction (nearly everyone!) hates San and wants him to lose, but he will fight to succeed! - that sort of thing :P

Have you watched/liked Dae Jang Geum? I thought Yi San was up one notch.

What?! How'd that happen? I stopped at episode 60 something because it was starting to exhaust me. But I really did love it for a while.

I don't know - I saw a youtube vid and was a goner.

Ding!!!

Went back to where I stopped Yi San. Just finished episode 24....53 episodes left...

Well, I started Family Honor (51 episodes left), Star Falling from the Sky (2 left), have to watch Chuno (24 episodes ??), The Honorable Family, Dong Yi and Merchant "Something".....

I'm doomed...

Heeee - but isn't it fun?

I'd love to tackle these longer sageuks but, but when?!! LOL! I'd need a year off from work to manage them really.

I think I'm secretly hoping that next year will be a very bad drama year so I can finally watch some of the older stuff I've been dying to take on. :)

LOL - This year is going to be amazing so by law of averages next one will prolly suck.
