I'm usually not a fan of stories in which there's a lot of focus on romance and the main characters fall in love very early on but these aspects, as well as all others, were so well-written that I actively enjoyed them. The relationship between the main characters is so heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. I also love how its comedic scenes are both witty and entertaining without being childish or cringey.
Another thing this drama does successfully that most don't is it's portrayal of a strong female lead. Most sageuk dramas make their female lead a Mary Sue who always has a plan, knows things no body else does, never suffers the consequences of her actions, never gets scared and always succeeds. These unrealistic standards don't apply to Lady Ok; her strength is gained through tremendous effort, persistence even after failures, the willingness to put others first and the support of those she's helped. Great characterisation and writing in general, a lovely soundtrack too.
