 I'm 8 episodes into the sageuk drama Jung Yi, Goddess of Fire, and pretty sure it would be more accurate if they named it Jung Yi, Master of Accidentally  Getting Arrested/Almost Executed For Treason.

I say that out of love, mind you (this show is great, though Jung Yi's adult actress isn't as good as her child actress yet, though I admit to a bias in favor of Jin Ji Hee) but 8 episodes in, and she's on her 5th round of being in trouble for some sort of theft/accidentally getting caught up in treasonous thing, and that's not including the 2 times Gwanghae just pretended nothing happened.  At this point, Tae Do (aka, obligatory very tall and pretty surrogate brother with a sword and long flowing hair. You know what I mean, all sageuk heroines have them these days)  is going to die of exhaustion before the show is halfway over.

heh! Oh dear.
I really like the starting concept of the story, but I've seen too many criticisms to try it, given limited time. (I haven't watched anything at all since Twenty Again ended.)
