GATILHO(S): Nenhum.

Olhando para trás, sua vida agora era tão diferente da que costumava ter que já era fácil fingir que sequer era a mesma pessoa. Ainda assim, Lee Minkyu tinha plena ciência de que seu passado havia formado quem era hoje, e de certa forma conseguia até se sentir grato por ele, agora que era livre para ser quem é.

Ainda se recordava perfeitamente do desespero de seus pais quando os primeiros sinais do seu subgênero foram aparecendo. Minkyu havia sido criado por uma família influente e tradicional bastante orgulhosa de seus outros três filhos alfas. No entanto, em vez de crescer e se desenvolver tanto quanto os irmãos e expressar agressividade ocasional como sinais de um alfa, o rapaz permanecia com sua estatura média e personalidade pouco competitiva. Seus interesses eram outros, apesar de sempre podados pelos pais, que se importavam mais com as aparências do que com o filho mais novo.

Sem saber, Minkyu era prova viva da infidelidade da mãe, que passou a ressenti-lo por sua natureza ter revelado o segredo que havia guardado tão bem durante anos. A mulher conseguiu salvar o casamento, mas na condição do garoto não ser mais apresentado como parte da família. A escolha da mãe não veio como surpresa para o rapaz; ele não esperava que ela estivesse disposta a voltar às suas origens humildes e abandonar a vida de prestígio que tinha por causa dele.

Minkyu teve uma adolescência solitária, até conhecer um grupo de dança formado tanto por ômegas quanto betas e alfas. A dança virou uma forma de escape para ele, que passava grande parte do seu tempo livre se dedicando a aperfeiçoar a arte, que o preenchia de uma forma que nunca havia sentido. Agora sentia que tinha um propósito, uma direção, ao contrário da sensação de estar perdido no mundo como antes.

O rapaz se formou em dança contemporânea na Korea National University of Arts e eventualmente se apresenta ou participa de musicais. Ao completar 30 anos, realizou o sonho de abrir seu próprio estúdio de dança em Itaewon, onde ensina dança contemporânea a pessoas de todas as idades.

Procurando mudar-se para o bairro, Minkyu ficou encantado ao saber de Blossom Grove. Além da localização perfeita para ele, a ideia de se mudar para um local cujo objetivo é acolher todos os tipos de pessoas sem preconceitos foi a principal razão para que quisesse morar lá. Esperava fazer do lugar um lar para si e finalmente sentir um senso de comunidade e família, algo que nunca havia experienciado.

⠀˳ 𓏲 ` ִ ︎︎ 💐 HEADCANONS︎︎ ⋆ ࣪. ࿔

Apesar de seu subgênero não ter sido bem aceito pelos pais, hoje não se sente inferior em nenhum aspecto por ser ômega. Aprendeu a desenvolver sua autoconfiança depois de se afastar da família e se cercar por pessoas de mente aberta.

Já teve o pescoço mordido sem seu consentimento, o que o deixou receoso de alguns alfas por um bom tempo.

Apesar de não falar com quase ninguém da família, Minkyu ainda mantém contato com o irmão mais velho, sem o conhecimento dos pais.

Adora comer bem, dias chuvosos, álcool e uma boa conversa.

I've never introduced Lee Maehwa (my LL oc) properly, mostly bc I can't draw too well, but I still wanted to post this fic for LegacyTober; kudos to @anonymousbeefriendfanfics for this wonderful idea!!

Day 2 Theme: MC + Cold (thought I'd combine the themes bc I wrote this many months ago to help me cope with the cold) m.list

Once Sage disappears into the bedroom—our bedroom, they remember with a skip in their heartbeat—Mae tugs one glove off and snaps their fingers at the air twice. The friction produces a spark of magic that floats in lazy spirals before sinking into the wood and setting the hearth alight. As rising flames breathe life into the cold, dark room, Mae sinks to their knees to bask in the warmth.

Sage shouldn't be able to see them from where he stands in the other room, yet they still hear him call out, “Don’t stick your face too close to the fire.”

But the flames have stretched out a pair of kind hands, offering to cradle Mae's face and gently rub off the icy air clinging to their numb, flushed cheeks. If there’s no other pair of hands to relieve them of the cold's sting, what can Mae do but succumb to these? After an hour spent outside, it's impossible to resist the temptation, so Mae elects to ignore Sage's warning and calls back, “Don’t drop your gauntlets on the floor!” 

In the momentary silence that follows, Mae could imagine his hands hovering in the air, shed gauntlets pointed to the ground, and his brows furrowing as he considers. Then there's a heavy thud of metal against the floor—that Mae did not expect. "I heard that!"

"They’re in the corner behind the door; you can't trip on them there!" 

"Oh, you—" Whatever they had to say dies at their lips when Sage turns up behind them, footsteps as soundless as a cat's despite his size, and unceremoniously throws his heavy cape over their head. Grateful for the extra layer of warmth, Mae backs away from the fireplace as the frustration growing in their chest melts into contentment. "Tulsi's gonna get mad if she knows you still mistreat your armor," they lazily drawl, craning their head back to flash Sage a sly smile.

"Who's gonna tell her; you?"

"Mmm. I might."

“You’re full of empty threats, Maehwa.”

“Oh, not this time, and that's a promise since you'd like to try me.”

Sage only grunts before crouching down to unlace Mae's boots; not that Mae would ever willingly step past the front door with their shoes still on—heaven knows they've given Sage enough grief about wearing his inside. It’s just that the task has gone completely forgotten in Mae's desperate pursuit of warmth.

"If you're gonna get this tired from the cold," he hums, easing one boot off their leg, "maybe you should leave the errands to me."

"And waste a perfect chance to go on a date with you?"

"S'just grocery shopping…" Sage’s hair casts long shadows over his downcast face as he slips off the second boot, but the prominence of his nose bridge and cheekbones shine golden before the dancing flames. It’s hard to see the flush of red painting his cheeks, but Mae knows it's there by the way his tail curls inward and the slight quirk of his lips.

"Oho! Weren't you once ready to settle for a hair-combing session as a date?"

It's not often that they would talk about the time before everything went to shit (as Tulsi so eloquently puts it). Sage has come to regard the man he was back then as an entirely different person—a better lover, probably; more human than monster, he’d whisper to Mae on late nights when they had to cradle his head to their chest, for only hearing their heartbeat could put his troubled mind at ease.

Mae leaves him no chance to go down that path tonight, however, leaning in so he can't escape their gaze as their voice drops into a soft purr, "Anything can be a date if I'm having a good time with you."

He shakes his head, and Mae can peep a fond smile before he turns away quickly, grabbing the pair of boots to put away. "This a date then?"

"Well, by definition, it should be," Mae hums thoughtfully, "but if any time I spend with you is a date, then there won't be any time that is not a date. Wouldn't 'date' lose its meaning then?" They frown at the hearth as if the answer would be buried within the burning embers, but the effort only makes their head hurt and their eyelids grow heavy. "Oh, does it matter? It's a date if I say so." 

"Can't argue with that.” Sage kneels by their side to press a kiss on their temple. Mae waits for him to sit down so they may flop over his lap for a little nap, but he is already standing up and walking away. 

“Where to?” 

“You're not hungry?" he calls back from the open kitchenette. Prompted by the rustling of bags, Mae looks away from the fireplace to find Sage swiftly sorting out the groceries before he gathers the vegetables for washing. "Dinner's not making itself."

“But the fireplace is right here.” 

The subsequent stare-off lasts a mere few seconds before Sage scowls—not out of inconvenience, but because his stubborn fool knows too well just how tightly wrapped around their pretty finger he has become. No, it has never been an inconvenience for Sage, not when Mae’s triumphant smile as he gives in to their whims makes it worth it. He gathers the ingredients off the table into one arm, and what doesn't fit, he balances over the cutting board in his other hand along with a clay pot. 

“Heaven forbid you make the arduous five-step journey between the kitchenette and the fireplace twice.”

“You’ll start wilting if I take too long. Like one of your dramatic plants, you know the one—the dotted leaves? Forget to water it once, and it’s already falling over itself.” He sits cross-legged by their side and kisses Mae’s affronted pout away, then pushes his hair behind his shoulder before grabbing the knife to make quick work of the vegetables. 

Mae wordlessly crawls into the long shadow cast by his broad back and undoes the loose tie, threading through fiery gold hair that fades into dull silver as the silky strands slip out and twist around Mae's fingers. Too often did these stray strands end up in the food whenever Sage cooked, so the pair had agreed he shouldn’t touch the cooking until he pulled his hair back. 

Once satisfied with their finger-combing, Mae pulls his hair into a neat bun but leaves some hair out to frame his face. All combing sessions must end with them pressing a kiss to Sage’s hair, a kiss to the nape of his neck, and a kiss between his shoulder blades, where Mae finally rests their cheek. Their hands slide over his bare, toned back, appreciating every curve of muscle before crossing around his waist. "So stiff… Let me rub your back before you sleep."

If Sage hums in assent, Mae can't hear it over his loud purring. He's so, so warm; they could just melt over his back and let the soothing vibrations lull them to sleep. Sage wouldn't complain much, but just because Mae offered to rub his back later doesn't mean they want him feeling as stiff as a plank before then. They slide off and curl up by his side, adjusting the fluffy cape into a cozy cocoon until their finger catches on one of its many holes.

Mae pulls the fraying hem for closer inspection. The red fabric has turned black with old stains of mud (or blood, they could no longer tell) that no amount of washing could help. “The weather's only gonna get worse. You can't keep using this cape.”

Sage only spares them a glance before going back to work. “This one does its job just fine.”

“It’s old and worn out. I can keep it at home for myself when you’re away. You should get a new one.”

"Was that your plan all along?" There's a small, teasing smile tugging at the corner of his lips. "If you want it all to yourself, just say so."

"How dare you!" Mae huffs, and they try to ignore the little tug at their heartstrings when his smile grows into a grin. "Well, yes. Maybe. But that's not the only reason! I still think you should get a new one."

“Sounds frivolous.”

"You say it like we splurge on the daily! Would you call it frivolous or a waste if I asked for a new coat?"

There's no response, save for the frustrated thumping of Sage's tail against their thigh, which usually means Mae has a point and he's upset about it, and that's answer enough for them. 

Sometimes it is easy to put yourself in a loved one's shoes—to empathize with their struggles and pick out the words they need to hear—but when the world has been moving on without you for six months, the gap can often be too huge to bridge.

Still, Mae rises, one arm supporting them and the other reaching for Sage's knee. "I know the past year has been difficult… but we're safe here, right now. And there's more to life than just surviving. You deserve nice—even frivolous—things, Sage. I'll even pick it myself, then it'll be special, and you can't say no." Their hands move to his cheek, thumb caressing the darkened web of scars branching from his right eye before gently coaxing him into facing them. "Okay?"

Mae knows Sage can't help how his eyes glow brightly in the dark, one golden and the other fiery red, but the weight of his gaze feels too heavy as he silently studies them. Undeterred, they lock eyes with him, not backing down until he finally relents and presses his cheek into their palm with a sigh. “Whatever I say, you’ll still go through with it, wouldn’t you?”

“See? You know me so well.”

With a soft kiss on his lips, Mae lies back down, snuggling into Sage's cape. The silence that follows is comfortable, filled by the crackling fire and soon joined by the pitter-patter of rain against the rattling windows. As their heavy eyelids slowly succumb to sleep and the sweet melody of fading autumn, Mae is only vaguely aware of Sage's rough hand closing around theirs and the soft kiss he presses to their fingers.

⠀˳ 𓏲 ` ִ ︎︎ 💐 BIOGRAFIA︎︎ ⋆ ࣪. ࿔

GATILHO(S): Morte por acidente (não gráfico), discriminação ao subgênero, traição.

Lee JeongU cresceu carregando em suas costas o peso de grandes expectativas. Pelos últimos cinquenta anos, a família Lee foi considerada como a mais próspera da região de Guri, não por suas riquezas, mas pela grande linhagem de filhos alfas que produzia.

Mais de meio século sem que houvesse notícia de um filho Ômega, os Lee eram considerados como candidatos ideais para casamento, confiáveis e sólidos, tomavam como certeza que qualquer homem nascido seria um grande alfa, assim como seus antecessores.

E com JeongU não foi diferente.

Mesmo quando tão novo, já tentava agir e se portar como seu pai. Apesar disso, no final do dia, ainda era uma criança; gostava de coisas macias para se enrolar, brincar com seus amigos e carinho em seu cabelo.

À medida que o tempo avançava e JeongU amadureceu, e a antecipação - ou pressão - para que ele se apresentasse apenas aumentava. Segundo seu genitor, estavam falando de mera formalidade, posto que as características físicas de JeongU já eram indícios o suficiente. “Alto como um alfa”, ele dizia, mas ignorava como via o filho se encolher sempre que aumentava seu tom de voz ou o número de cobertores que guardava em seu guarda-roupa.

No auge de seus dezesseis anos, o rapaz ainda não tinha se apresentado. Seu subgênero, ainda que a genética deveria lhe garantir ser um alfa, permanecia reprimido, e, cada dia mais, JeongU sentia a mente à deriva, sendo carregada em direção às incertezas.

Bem, se a genética não deveria mentir, logo não deveria permitir que ele fosse qualquer coisa senão um alfa. Então por quê? Por que sentia o rosto corado a medida que o aroma doce, carregado com o toque de cafeína, inundava seu quarto e ele buscava desesperadamente por um canto seguro?

Por cinquenta anos, a família Lee foi abençoada com uma linhagem de filhos homens alfas, os quais mantiveram o status da família e espalharam suas raízes pela cidade, criando a reputação de confiáveis e sólidos.

Casamentos arranjados garantiam a superioridade genética em que tanto acreditavam.

Mas Lee JeongU não era um alfa.

“Um maldito ômega”, ouviu as palavras de seu pai. Por mais de quinze anos, sustentou e alimentou a porra de um ômega, que sequer conseguia esconder o choro ao ouvir o timbre alto da voz de um alfa, o mais velho não gritava, não se dirigia a ele, mas JeongU estava presente, sentado da maneira mais respeitosa que conseguia enquanto ouvia o pai vociferar para as paredes.

Naquela noite, o jovem montou seu primeiro ninho. E então o desmanchou, sentindo nojo e vergonha de si mesmo. Ele não era a porra de um ômega. Havia algum engano. Era apenas um grande engano, tinha certeza de que, se fosse dormir, então, no dia seguinte, tudo estaria resolvido!

Mas não estava. E, ao acordar, se deparou com as pílulas ao lado de sua cama. “Bloqueadores”, dizia o bilhete, “tome antes da escola”. Com um suspirou, engoliu o medicamento de uma vez só, junto a um grande gole de água, e partiu para o colégio.

Nos próximos meses, o ambiente dentro da casa piorou. JeongU se sentia sufocado na presença dos pais, e nem mesmo seu quarto ou seu ninho mal feito lhe trazia o conforto que precisava.

Felizmente, tinha Mujin, sua primeira briga, primeira amizade e, agora, seu porto seguro em meio a tempestade que assolava sua vida. O amigo permaneceu ao seu lado mesmo após descobrir a razão pela qual JeongU andava tão inquieto, inclusive se mostrando ainda mais atencioso e cuidadoso. E talvez fosse natural que todo o carinho viesse a abrir portas para algo a mais, principalmente durante a turbulenta puberdade dos adolescentes.

Foi assim que veio o primeiro beijo. Não por iniciativa sua, mas tão bem recebido que, após, JeongU desejou poder se afogar naquele abraço. Os presentes, sorrisos tímidos e o retorno para casa de mãos dadas vieram depois, como consequência da paixão que aflorava no penúltimo ano escolar.

Por dois meses, foram capazes de esconder o relacionamento. Eram próximos desde pequenos e, ainda que as regras da casa tenham ficado mais rígidas após JeongU ter se apresentado como ômega, não era incomum que o rapaz voltasse para casa com o cheiro de Mujin.

A paixão adolescente, no entanto, em sua euforia para acontecer, acarreta em descuido. Uma coisa era usar o casaco de Mujin e voltar com o aroma sutil em suas roupas, outra era ter sua pele marcada da forma mais devassa e voltar para casa impregnado com o cheiro de um beta.

Foram segundos até que os passos largos do patriarca o alcançassem no corredor. O cenho franzido fora a única coisa que conseguiu notar antes de sentir o estalo da mão em seu rosto. Nunca havia apanhado, nunca viu seu pai alterado da forma como estava agora, nunca deixou de escutar uma palavra do que o alfa dizia… E, agora, vivenciava as três experiências de uma única vez.

O ouvido de JeongU ainda zunia baixinho durante o jantar. O mais velho não se juntou à mesa naquela noite, para o alívio dos outros membros da família. Mas ao ver que ainda assim a cadeira à ponta permanecia vazia, JeongU se perguntou, pela primeira vez, era tão ruim que ele fosse um ômega? Ainda era um Lee, oras! Ainda tinha determinação e genes saudáveis, poderia ser tão bom quanto qualquer outro de seus primos!

De fato, o problema em si não era JeongU ser um ômega. A sequência de fatos que levaram até o episódio da confissão de seu pai sobre a traição e como ele não era filho da mulher que sempre chamou de mãe, bem, isso não vale a pena ser mencionado, o importante era saber que JeongU era a prova de um erro, um desvio de seu pai que poderia desonrar toda a família. E também, o que ocorreu depois, não pode ser deixado de fora.

Apesar de ter passado a odiar todos os segredos que aquela casa escondia, JeongU não esperava, um dia, ser colocado para fora da forma como foi. Expulso de casa com as roupas do corpo e meia mochila de pertences que conseguiu salvar, o primogênito ouviu o pai dizer que não iria mais insistir em um erro.

Se algum dia se perguntou qual era o limite da lealdade do genitor para com a honra de sua família, descobria agora que deserdar um filho estava dentro dos limites. Eram alfas da família Lee acima de tudo, afinal.

O jovem foi acolhido pela família de Mujin em Seul, onde ambos passaram a morar juntos. E, conforme os dias passavam, JeongU percebia que, enquanto tivesse o namorado ao seu lado, então teria tudo. Não precisava de nada que os Lee poderiam oferecer, não queria viver sufocado pelas regras e expectativas da família, não queria ter que envenenar seu corpo enquanto buscava aceitação pelo que não era. Em breve, seria apenas ele e Mujin, em uma casa confortável, como companheiros marcados.

Mas então Mujin também se foi.

Um ano e seis meses depois, em um acidente cruel, com chances mínimas de sobrevivência.

Mais uma vez, sozinho, o Lee não esperava conseguir se reerguer. Seu aroma amargo afastava qualquer um que pudesse tentar se aproximar, preferia viver isolado no pequeno quarto que havia alugado após deixar a casa dos pais do antigo amante. Assim, durante meses, viveu oscilando entre a tristeza profunda e a insanidade.

Em um de seus episódios de loucura, chegou a visitar o distrito vermelho. A casa bem conhecida cheirava a incenso, sexo e um amargor que não conseguia identificar. JeongU não sabia o que buscava ali, mas com certeza encontrar alguém com um aroma tão parecido ao seu não era a resposta.

Claramente um ômega, mas cujo gênero o jovem não tinha interesse em descobrir. A pessoa estranha lhe acolheu, levando aos seus aposentos, oferecendo seu colo para que o jovem deitasse e, ali, antes que pudesse impedir a si mesmo, JeongU chorou copiosamente, descarregando os meses de solidão em lágrimas grossas e quentes enquanto recebia o carinho que apenas uma mãe poderia dar.

Nas semanas seguintes, retornou ao local, buscando pela mesma pessoa, tiveram noites em que ficaram em silêncio, outras em que ela lhe orientava e aconselhava. O vínculo que formavam ali era estranho, eram desconhecidos, mas JeongU sentia-se em casa naquele abraço.

Foi graças aos conselhos daquela pessoa que JeongU retomou o curso de bombeiro que havia abandonado, juntou dinheiro e conseguiu reconstruir ao menos uma boa fração de quem era. Com as visitas ao bordel se tornando cada vez mais esporádicas, sabia que aquela pessoa poderia sair de sua vida a qualquer instante, por isso tentou não se deixar abalar quando soube que ela havia se mudado, sem deixar qualquer recado ou contato para o jovem ômega.

Lee JeongU já não era o mesmo garoto que foi expulso de casa anos atrás, mas também não era aquele que vivia tranquilo nos braços de seu amor ou que chorava no colo de uma prostituta. Não queria permanecer no quarto que testemunhou seu declínio, sabia que precisava de novos ares, novas pessoas.

Assim, Blossom Grove surgiu como um oásis, um convite irrecusável para uma nova etapa de sua vida, com vista para um pequeno altar e um jardim encantador.

⠀˳ 𓏲 ` ִ ︎︎ 💐 HEADCANONS︎︎ ⋆ ࣪. ࿔

Com a morte de Mujin, JeongU voltou a usar bloqueadores e, agora, supressores, apesar de já ter sido alertado por seu médico para parar.

Ainda não se sente pronto para outro relacionamento e não sabe se algum dia irá sentir, atualmente prefere focar todas suas energias na vida profissional.

Está buscando um novo hobby, mas não conseguiu criar costume em nenhum dos que já experimentou até agora.

Se a altura já não bastasse, devido ao exercício intenso, seu corpo acabou fugindo do padrão esperado de um ômega. JeongU acredita fielmente que isso o torna menos atraente.

Seu artista preferido é Michael Jackson. Costuma ouvir todas as manhãs, durante o treino e no caminho para o trabalho.

My thoughts on:

Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung

Starring: Cha Eun Woo/Shin Se Kyung/Lee Ji Hoon/ Park Ki Woong

- Stand up for what you believe in. I think this is very important. People usually take advantage of those who are weak. So make your stand - especially if your boundaries and rights are being poked.

- Sometimes, being different is okay. Averting the community's standards is okay too. Why be like everybody else when you can be yourself?

We do not have to compromise our identity to match other people's standards. ✅😊💯

- Let us be each other’s support system. Let us value encouragement over discouragement. If someone wants to sing/dance/act/write, let them. Let them find what they are passionate about and support them.

Encouragement and kindness are free.

- Equality has come a long way. 👍🏻

The series is set during the Joseon Era where the status of women depended on who they marry. They are practically born to serve men during this time. So, I’ve come to appreciate the liberties we have now more than ever.

- Do your part. Do not be afraid when you are just doing what you are supposed to do.

- Adapt to the changing times. Change is the only thing that is constant. Let's all move forward with lessons from the past. 💜

- Wouldn't it be nice... if the world was Cadbury? Char! Hahahaha! Wouldn't it be nice if someone makes the decision to let go of everything just to be with you? #SanaAll

It may sound cliché but it's really romantic - how two persons can come together to achieve everything together. Wouldn't this really be nice? 😊❤️🥰

- Safe to say, no matter what era we are currently in, women make the world a better place. HAHAHAHA!

The Gist:

The series depicts the story of two young individuals who, despite being in different social classes, fell in love against all odds.

Shin Se Kyung plays the role of Goo Hae Ryung. She is a quirky young lady from a noble family who enjoys reading a lot. In saying so, she works as a book-reader to noble ladies in her neighborhood to earn money. Although, due to her book preferences, she always ends up not getting paid.

During this time, women tend to enjoy books about cringy love stories - most of which are written by “Maehwa”. Hae Ryung, on the other hand, prefers western literature which usually end depressingly. Hence, the no-payment scenario.

Little did everyone know, Maehwa is the pen name of Prince Dowon Yi Rim (played by Cha Eun Woo). He is the King’s son who lives at Nokseodang - the most secluded area in the palace - where he stays with a eunuch named Sam Bo and 2 young court ladies.

Naturally, as a kid who never left the palace, he is very innocent, naive and gentle. He found writing as a means to pass time inside the palace. Thus, the inspiration for the novels he usually writes are the secret love affairs of eunuchs and court ladies.

Digging deeper into the conflicts inside the palace, the king and his right-hand man decided to request the hiring of female historians. They meant to spy on the queen dowager who seems to be plotting against them behind their backs by doing so.

This move took a turn when the crown prince - Yi Jun - approved the plea on the condition that the female historians should take the civil service examination for government employees and that their involvement should not be limited to the queen dowager but to ALL members of the royal family.

A lot of controversy rose as females were not allowed to hold any position in the government during this time.

Hae Ryung and Yi Rim's story start to blossom here - when Goo Hae Ryung decides to ditch her arranged wedding to take the civil service examination to work inside the palace as a female historian.

They are set to an adventure of finding out their real identities and the people behind their past experiences.

The rest is for you to find out. So, watch this. It will be worth your time. 👍🏻💕

What I liked about the series:

- I love how unconventional the theme of this series is. Well, it's a gender bender type of story. The aggressiveness of the female lead and the innocence and naivety of the male lead is fun and fresh. ❤️💕😍 It makes the story more interesting since it's different from the traditional sageuk we are previously acquainted to. 👍🏻😊❤️

- I was thrilled when I found out that Cha Eun Woo was casted here as the male lead. I grew fond of him when I watched My ID is Gangnam Beauty. He's such an eyecandy! 😍😍😍

Of course, in relation to his outstanding visuals, we get to see a glimpse of his beautiful physique *wink wink*

On a serious note, what I liked about him in this series is that he has a very demure personality. Rarely do we get to see men in sagueks who are effeminate - mainly because historical dramas are very patriarchal in nature (IMO, ✌🏻).

I also liked how his character really transformed from this very innocent prince to a very mature potential king. The character growth was well-displayed so it was very satisfying to watch. ❤️😊😍

His acting is one to praise as well. I could say that he has improved a lot in the duration of the series. You might find this hard to believe in the beginning. But wait til you see him in the last few episodes. You'll get to appreciate his improvement more. 😊👍🏻💯

Aaaaand, may I just say, the term "Face Genius" really works for the man. Well, who wouldn't love this BB's face? TELL MEEEEE! 💕😂😊

- I was impressed with the acting skills of Shin Se Kyung here as well. The role of Goo Hae Ryung suits her! Her portrayal of the character was so on point that it actually came out naturally. Good job! 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I love how her character is so independent, responsible, intelligent, fun, aggressive (in a good way), lovable and just plain quirky with a sunshine-attitude. Like I said, I enjoyed seeing women do what is considered taboo in this particular era. It's something fun and interesting to watch. 💕😊👍🏻💯✅

In this day and age, I think we need more Goo Hae Ryung's in the world - someone who stands up for her rights; someone who is not afraid to do her part for the common good; someone who is not afraid of power; someone who does not bend over backwards for power; someone who is righteous and responsible.

Very few are blessed with this kind of courage. So, if you're one of these very few individuals, SALUTE!

Also, I love how she looks so elegant in a Hanbok. She's rocking the traditional outfit as if they were casual attires. No wonder she was part of the 2017 Hanbok PR Ambassadors. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

PO: I honestly think not all korean actresses look good in this traditional outfit. ✌🏻

- Their chemistry is 💯💕💕💕💕. They look good together. All their scenes made my heart flutter and skip a beat. 😍😍😍

- I like how the series tackled a bit about Christianity. There's this one scene that I really liked between Min U-won and another historian who was willing to let go of his position and to sacrifice his life for his religious belief.

I honestly appreciated my faith more because all this time (in my 26 years), I was and I am still reminded that all are equal - rich or poor - in the eyes of God. 💯😊✝️

- Friendship appreciation post: I loved how the friendship of the people in this series protected and cheered up each other.

It's always good to know that someone has your back - all the time. 😊✅💯

- Yo, I also loved the big reveal regarding the leads' identities. Goosebumps, everywhere! Especially...

SPOILER ALERT!

Especially when they confronted the king on the latter part of the series. Ooohweeee! Daebakkk!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

- Storywise, it's good. 💯

It talks about love, forgiveness, friendship, faith, loyalty, dignity and responsibility.

Kudos to the team for a job well done! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Cons:

- Okay... I have to admit, I did find the acting skills of Cha Eun Woo a little mediocre at the beginning. It was as if he wasn't ready for the role...

Some of his facial reactions were either exaggerated or repetitive... ✌🏻

But, let me tell you this. Do not let this bother you. He's got something in store for you on the latter part of the series. Do watch. 👍🏻😊✅

- I was a bit sad too when I heard that Cha Eun Woo was paired with Shin Se Kyung. My first impression on Shin Se Kyung is not that good. I honestly thought that her acting skill is not that impressive (Personal opinion, friends ✌🏻)

I have watched her in The Bride of Habaek and I was quite disappointed. Same with The Girl Who Sees Scents. 😔

But then again, all more reason to watch this because she really showed off what she's capable of. I've come to love her here because her acting prowess was showcased beautifully! 💕👏🏻👍🏻

- Again with the villain predictability. One can say that this story has the usual sageuk villain. ✌🏻

Soundtrack:

Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung OST

My personal favorite is Fall in Luv by Henry. It's the first track in the link provided above. 👆🏻👆🏻

Highly recommended for those who want to stray from conventional dramas. This one's fun and really enjoyable! You won't regret it! 💯👍🏻😊
