Better without the plot? I enjoyed this tremendously up through the halfway mark - up til then I could ignore the historical subplot. After that, too tedious. A good show, not as funny as others. The Jalgeum Quartet was pretty flawless all together, although I became a bit bored with Lee Seun Joon's character after a while: way too noble. But of course he has to be for the plot. Loved the other 2 guys! And Park Min Young is so cute to watch, even if she never truly looks like a guy. Oh well.
