The Great Seer Episode 3 & 4

 With these episodes, we are given the introduction of the child actors and the backdrop of the main characters' childhood. Out of all the childhood actors, the one that really captivated me was Ban Ya's younger version (Park Min Ji). Maybe it's the fact that Ban Ya's character itself is quite complicated and intriguing that she stands out the most. Overall, I'm quite enjoying the childhood backdrop, everyone is doing fine...

OK, maybe not. 

I somehow can't stand the younger version of Hae-In. Taking a look back at the cast list, oh...no wonder. She's from an idol group. But I'm looking forward to the older version of Hae-In-- Kim So Yeon!

Thrilling Chases

I think that was practically the highlight of episode 3 and 4.

Like seriously, we all knew that no baby could handle such chase. I mean, would it even survive after? This scene reminded me of the 'baby-escape' scene in Queen Seon Deok. 

 

This was a really poignant moment between Princess Noguk and King Gongmin. It really showed how strong the Princess was, and how much she wanted to protect the man she loved. Note: This 'rebellion' at Heung Wang temple actually did happen in history.

Killer Cat vs. smart Rat?

A Mother's Love

 Poor baby Jung Geun left alone crying in the thrashing wind and rain. Both 'mothers' on opposite sides just sitting there, one waiting for the other to pick him up, the other fighting with her conscience. As much as I loved this scene, the tension and the crying just had me screaming "someone just get the baby already!"

In Your Eyes

Lee In Im might be a scumbag in many's eyes, but you can tell he really loves Young Ji. It's too bad her heart is elsewhere. However, he should learn that maybe he can earn her heart...if he stops going to Evil Priestess, no?

Sweet & Bitter Love

Ji Sang's first love, Ban Ya. I can already 'foresee' their turbulent relationship, sigh. In the character description, Ban Ya is a ruthless woman who takes advantage over poor Ji Sang...

Ban Ya's Fate Revealed

HM:The site where the thirsty dragon drinks water is already taken. We must move it right now.

MH:Who knows? The girl who has taken this site may be someone important in the future.

HM:But still! This is the spot where the most energy is.She won't receive all of the energy there.

MH:Actually, because she made the graveaway from the most powerful site...that grave will be safe.

MH:Pitiful... you will need to shed enough tears to make a river. That's the only way to quench the thirst of the dragon.



LEE MOON SHIK! 

I've only seen him in Saeguks (Queen Seon Deok, Damo) and I've loved him in all of them. He's reprising the usual cheeky, humorous character here. Don't know what 'special powers' he has yet, but it seems he can read people's faces? Also don't know which side he's on...
