I'm in awe of the mystic of Lee Bang Won, but at this point, I kinda really want other historical figures to be portrayed. Lee Bang Won and Jeong Do-jeon and their entire ordeal has already been done well IMO.

Unless there is new material to be said about Lee Bang Won- 36 episodes would be a a bit much.
