It feels very fresh for me since we get to see a period drama from a different perspective. Here, we follow the mother rather than the typical young romance.
The story revolves around the inner court. We see multiple concubines rival for power through their sons. Mostly, we follow the life of the queen who aims to save her sons from the cunningness of the inner court. It's a really good story with a pacing that I enjoy. I don't find any moments boring at all.
The characters are great as well. It's only been 4 episodes but they are very well fleshed out. They have a nuance of modernity in them.
The music, costumes, and cinematography are really beautiful as well.
