Review: Empress Ki

Historical, romance, politics

A very well written historical drama. It described the life cycle of Empress Ki from young until she was adult. What she suffered during her childhood has lead her to be more determined to train herself  to become more stronger. Her strength can be compete with other men. She is skillful in arrow shooting. On the other hand, she is also a brave and clever woman who is not like any ordinary women who portraits weak and needed to be protect.

Throughout her life, she struggle a lot from losing her parents and son. Thank god that she is lucky enough to meet wonderful person in her life, such as  friends, teacher, first love and even her husband in the end of the story. They helped her to become the Empress of Yuan. They protected her from political issue as well as her own life.

This drama demonstrated the cruel and ugly part of how the political people misused their power and wealth to gain more greedy on power and make the poor suffer from starving. It is also showed how Empress Ki used her knowledge and tactics to handle those issues. It was very impressive for a woman who can do so many great things for the nation of the people.

It was a very nice historical drama to be watched.
