Powerful and melodramatic historical drama. Although it contains a few unbelievable and coincidental moments, it keeps its special storytale quality throughout the series. Lee Jun Ki is the highlight...he's so good.

I like Lee Jun Ki in here a lot! He's so handsome and so cool as Iljimae! Hope that there will be Iljimae 2 with him as main lead and Han Hyo Joo as his love again. They are cute together, I like their love story to continue!

i'm sorry to say, but u can't really judge a drama by just watching the first couple of episodes and then read all the other reviews about it and decide.
personally i think this is a really good drama. and btw..i'm not korean...i'm viet and yes i watch alot of wuxia dramas, chinese dramas, and etc...before and i know how it should be like.
When i start watching this drama, i thought the same thing, it really sound like other robinhood sorta like dramas. But the story is really different. How is this and hong gil dong the same? the storylines are different!
Iljimae, the beginning, i think its a little it long winded...i admitt i kinda fast forward alittle in the begining but starting episodes 7 or i guess alittle before when he realize his identity and his past...the drama get really interesting, really touching, and really good.
it might not be as good as other wuxia dramas but its not as bad to receive such a bad review about it.
and honestly just to let u know, its not just koreans that are in love with the dramas, other fans are viet like me or chinese, or japanese too.
i would give this drama at least 4/5...not just 2 and 1/2....

I just wanted to ask, in regards to the ending. Does Iljimae actually die in the end. Its just it was kind of confusing as the last scene showed him sitting on the wall next to the plum tree. I wanted him to end up with Eun Chae, but apart from the ending I loved every bit of it.
