Lee Jun Ki is my ninja forever...

[dangermousie]

If by 'ninja' you mean 'masked avenger rebel who pauses in his awesome fight to admire plum blossoms.'

The beginning of Iljimae is pretty darn awesome.

I watched it raw and I approve.



He gets onto the premises of something super-guarded in disguise:



And then proceeds in his sexy transformation, taking off face prosethetics:





Putting on greaves:



Taking off hat and sexily shaking out his hair (This drama knows my kinks and shamelessly panders to them YES PLEASE).





Next is armor:





More prosthetics removal:





Buckling and other changy stuff:











I foresee levels of happiness with this drama unequaled since Time between Dog and Wolf. Oh, Lee Jun Ki, how you spoil me.





Mask on, time to ninja:





































And then we delve into angsty childhood flashbackness and thus actual plottiness, so for that I will wait for subs. Though am I correct? , Iljimae's mother was forced by father of the heroine???????? (They are not siblings or anything of course).

OMG.

!!!!!!!!

OMG.

I wonder if he ever finds out. That's got to screw you up for life.
