The LONG PILL:

Korea’s A-list stars Song Joong-ki, Jang Dong-gun, Kim Ok-vin and Kim Ji-won joined a stellar list of actors for the epic fantasy drama set during the Bronze Age. It centers on the power struggle between the tribe leaders of Arthdal. But the mystery about the existence of twin brothers who have no idea about the existence of each other makes the fight for Arthdal’s supremacy more complicated.
Hard Pill to Swallow
The 18-episode series is not enough to give a clear picture of the whole story. It also has way too many characters that can be difficult to keep track of. Also, the open-ended season finale must be wrapped up completely with at least another season.
