Oh dear! What a pity! 
This drama is definitely worth waiting for, IMO!! I finished
watching it yesterday, and even when I'm at work, the soundtrack is
playing in my mind.
I even re-play certain scenes in my mind too.
Yeah... think I'm obsessed with
this show! 
The first episode really had this Lord of the Rings air to it! It
begins with a legend involving gods and deities, with ten tons of
CGI graphics added in. Almost an overkill in certain stages, but as
with legends, the story gets mesmerising. There's a tragic end to
the legend, and ended with the god sealing his four treasures and
returning back to earth about 2000 years later.
For the next two or three episodes, we go through the childhood of
the protagonists in the drama. The kiddie actors, I tell you, they
all can act!! Not just pretty children, but they are great actors
too!! Amazing! 
Just as you grow attached to the charming kiddies, they have grown
up. I still think one of the actresses do not make the grade.
Anyways, what ensues is twists in a love entanglement
thing, then battles and plots and palace intrigues. Very
captivating and keeps you wanting to watch till it all ends!
When you start watching this series, I'm sure you'll realise why I
draw parallels between this series and the LOTR trilogy!

And oh, Bae Yong Jun is sooooooo darn handsome and charming and
macho in this movie, and all the men look soooooooooo gooooooooood
mmmMMmmm!! in battle gear that I find myself wishing I had been
born as some pretty and intelligent princess in that era so all of
them will fight to win my hand.
See what BYJ and his fellow hunks do to me?!

Siiigh... I finished watching it, but am so tempted to watch it
again!
