I watched it yesterday without subs and again today with subs. I have not been this emotionally affected by a sageuk since my latest CHUNO rewatch earlier in the year, and that’s saying something…
I would classify Chino more like a character journey rather than a romance, even though there were plenty of romantic moments there. Bossam reminds me the most of The Princess’s Man, but it has its own unique vibe too. The drama is on its way of becoming an all-time favorite, worthy of multiple rewatches. Most of my favorite sageuks have tragic endings, so I hope this one will end on a well-deserved happy note.
I don’t see a reason why it wouldn’t end on a happy note like Princess’ Man.
We know from history that Ba-woo’s aunt Queen Inmok will be re-instated and that the Westerners will return to power.
Gwanghae will probably be spared for Soo-kyung’s sake so that’s good enough for me.
It’s so good! I actually watched 1/2 of 10 at 20% subbed which is good enough for me! I like watching this unsubbed because I see more of the actors’ expressions as well. And JIW and Yuri are killing it in that department.
Agree! Both are excellent in this drama. I have not seen Yuri in anything, so I am very impressed. I recently watched JIW in HAECHI and liked him a lot in that drama. I like his voice. Does he sing?

I’m not big on romance in sageuks except for a few like “Chuno”, “Princess’ Man” and “Yisan.”
“Bossam” combines them all so I’m hopelessly addicted.
I’m going to watch and re-watch to my heart’s content.

I don’t think he does professionally, but yeah, I’m partial to his voice too, and eyes, and hands, and lips, and…well, all of it. 😂

These 2 are doing crazy things to my heart and brain 😆. I’m secretly shipping them irl. Oops, I guess it’s not a secret anymore 😝.

He’s 2 years older than she in real life, so yeah, it could happen.
