For those who don't know what a Saeguk is... It is the term for korean Historical drama...
So what are your favorites??

My LIST is
1. Return of Iljimae
2. Princess's man
3. Sun Moon (The moon that embraces the sun)
4. Sungkyunkwan scandal (I guess i got the spelling right)
5. Joseon X files (a must watch if a sucker for sci fi s)

I loved return of iljimae because of my part fixation with Jung Il Woo and part because of the awesome story music and cinematography. Princess's man had one of the most lovely couple and awesome storyline most of which is a true fact. Sun Moon is a still ongoing drama but who can resist such cute lead and such hot second lead (Kim soo Hyun , Jung Il Woo) and the story is not bad, the Scandal was another gender bender as in girl disguises as a guy goes into boys high school just that its not so easy cuz it was joseon era(one of the old era in korea) and if you get caught you'll be hanged there she meets 3 awesome guys oh i still miss yeo rim and guh roh and their bromance :(... then finally Joseon X files is for those who love sci fi its actually the best drama of all these just that its not a romantic drama or superhero helps the citizen kind also its about a team of people who investigate weird things happening in their world and keep record of them to be secretly passed onto the future generations because if they claim they saw an UFO in the 15th century they would be called mad by the king and finally hanged so they are like special affairs team just in the joseon era so its super fun... the ending is quite confusing to most and can be interpreted as different by different people so its up to the viewer

I absolutely adore these 5 saeguks tell me what's yours?

To be honest, I haven't seen any historical dramas yet😆 The first one I will be watching is Rooftop Prince and I am only able to make up my mind for that is because it's a fusion of history/present. I would like to watch Sungkyunkwan Scandal sometime. Hopefully soon :)

Welcome to the forum😳

thanx
but rooftop is not exactly a saeguk because there's that time traveling thing involved and half of the drama will be in the present so i don't think its counted as saeguk but if you are interested in a nice love story watch Princess's Man its awesome

Damo - Ha Ji Won at her best. One of the best dramas around.

Chuno
- The ending left me - whaa...

Iljimae - quite good...period vigilante

Tree with deep roots - Amazing story!

Joseon X Files - Incredible writing

Sungkyunkwan Scandal - Lovely. Quite simplistic story without too much political complication.

Moon that embraces the sun - New favorite!
