Six Flying Dragons

Perfect Masterpiece

It deserves more than 10/10 even 100! I filmed all the best quotes so almost all the movie Masterpiece ! there's no no words to describe the excellency of this story and the acting is the best I've ever ever seen! There's no match for this drama !The acting was so on point that even the viewers were fooled and ask themselves if it was reality or not?
I am gonna start reviewing it now , just so you know this isn't about love I mean not totally it was about belief. I am just granny something before going in the heart of the matter. Even though the love between Boon yi and Lee bang Won was the purest and innocent form of love but its also loving someone in the cruelest way of life. It was loving so wholeheartedly that it can tear you apart but never owning each other I guess the real love Story was between Sam Bong and Lee Bang Won. Lee Bang Won literally worshipped him and was so hurt by him. Indeed the relationship between a teacher and his student is really deep. Also I want to talk about Gil Tae mi who is the most controversial character, he is the definition of why the world is so complicated.
Now lets start with the real review:
This is fighting for something bigger than oneself and sometimes even bigger than life and death. Trusting and being confident in yourself is key even if it’s okay to feel lost and hesitate sometimes like Lee Bang Won.
I mean it was a bloodshed. Everything was breaking apart but this is politics right ? This is reality right ? You need to learn to get back up
After the end of the most epic , breathtaking, Masterpiece flawless, beyond perfection dramas I’ve ever watched in my whole life and I believe best deals since the world began.. Trust me I’ve watched countless of hundreds of movies and I have never felt this way. I felt this one in bones, the deepest part of my being. I only felt it. I guess It was about feeling. I am still feeling drunk as if I was awaken from the most epic dream. After watching this kind of drama I feel broken, empty then complete again, like I was flying then suddenly crashing without nowhere to land as if i was torn part, then I was silently quiet and powerless, then I felt lost and I found myself again then I was loosing it again and again. Then finally came peace, the peace that help us to understand and mend our broken wounds, the peace that allow us to let it go and break free. At the I felt like I’ve grown up . I’ve learned so many life lessons.
It was hard to watch , heart wrenching most times but above all it depicted reality in all its truthfulness and brutality. All along this drama made us ask ourselves this same damn question: what is right and what is evil ? Is there really any a difference between politics and swords ? I guess I still don’t know what’s the appropriate answer.
I Hated this drama and loved it at the same time. It definitely change my perception of the world and myself. It Made me feel all kind of emotions I myself didn’t know I could ever feel in this lifetime.
It was a bloodshed but all the pieces fit at the end , I cried like Ive never cried before( trust me I don’t easily cry i am kind of the heartless type ?) , I was inspired, I dreamed of a new world where everyone would be happy. This drama made me dream and aspire and I love it so much I thought my heart would explode into a million pieces and I felt these pieces brought back together and I felt my heart explode over and over again. It did that . It made me change my opinions and strengthened some even more . It made me understand even better what I stand up for. It made me understand what is the meaning of fighting for your dreams but also my self and non self imposed limits that I must break away from in order to reach my goals. It made me define what are the boundaries that should never be crossed ?Who is right ? Can both be right? At the end does it really matter ? I’ve come to learn that nothing in this world is easy to judge. Is a monster really a monster just because of the horrible deed he’s done and because the world has decided to call him a monster ?
Can we try understand him ? Can we try to understand each other. Is a saint really a saint because the world has decided that she/ he’s a saint ? Can killing be forgiven? Can we forgive the unforgivable ? Is there anything really unforgivable in this world ? Can betrayal/ hurt be forgiven when you come to understand the deep/ controversial reasons and internal struggles of the one who betrayed you ? Can our good deeds help us redeem ourselves or erase our evil ones ? Can a thief be actually right sometimes for stealing from the upperclass during turbulent times? But is he really a thief if he’s actually doing it to survive and can be considered a good thing to steal from the ones who are stealing from the poor people ? I’ve come to have sympathy and understanding for the villain even if he’s evil. I’ve come to understand hiss choices, Ive come to hate the hero despite the burning love and inspiration that I still feel for him . I’ve seen the most surreal, and truth be told, the cruelest things that you never imagine even in your worst nightmares, and the worst part is this can happen and actually happened in real life. At the end everyone is so complex but so simple at the same time… Ahhhh I mean i don’t even know what I am saying.
Nevermind haha I’ve come to think about What I’m really willing to sacrifice without losing myself and i even come to asking myself if iam willing to loosing myself for a great cause. I guess as you’re reading my lines you would feel the impact this drama had on me.
It depicted the reality so perfectly, so accurately that it blown my mind away , I was left speechless, walking dazzled but lost without nowhere to go in my room then sitting again and asking myself over and over again: What is right and what is evil ? In this world what is just and what is good ? What’s the difference between the two ? In this world where people use others or are used, can you live for yourself and free yourself from others’perception ?
Again can you answer to these questions :
Is there any difference? Is there really any difference ? I am asking the world, on deciding life and death. Is there any difference between politics and guns ? What is the difference between justice and goodness ?
Even though we don’t necessarily have the answer to these questions we feel at peace knowing that we don’t really know. I found myself being lost trying to find the answers but ending up asking myself if there were really true and appropriate answers.

Unforgettable, EPIC!

This is an amazing show, truly outstanding.

The story revolves around the question "what makes a nation?" and explores the relationship between the ruler/s and those that are ruled / the people. The show explores how big ideas and big dreams can change or affect the people who try to enact them.
Ultimately this show illustrates that power should be "rooted" in the people.

I can't do justice to this show with my review, it has a talented and dynamic cast, a beautifully written plot (loosely based on historical events) a moving and heartfelt OST and delicately intricate directing - a true masterpiece.

Just watch it, that's all.

Comment for Six Flying Dragons

Six Flying Dragons could have become one of the most profound artistic works in Korean television — if only the writers had the courage to follow the path they themselves had opened.

At its core, this drama is not just about the founding of a nation, but about the loss of one’s soul in the process of believing in that nation’s creation. The best example of this is found in Lee Bang-ji and Mu-hyul — two men who once shared the same ideal, yet came to embody its opposite meanings.

In their sword-fighting scene, the drama falters: Lee Bang-ji, filled with sorrow, refuses to harm Mu-hyul because he understands that doing so would wound the innocence and purity they once shared. Mu-hyul, blinded by loyalty to his king, fights to win — unknowingly wounding himself instead.

The outstanding performances by Byun Yo-han, Yoo Ah-in, Yoon Kyun-sang, and others elevate the entire work beyond its commercial frame — their silences, grief, and dignity give the story its moral weight.

Had the writers allowed Mu-hyul to leave in silence after the fratricide, instead of remaining loyal to Yi Bang-won, the series could have reached the depth of true tragedy. For real tragedy is not in blood, but in the moment when a man recognizes evil yet stays — because he no longer knows who he is if he walks away.

Six Flying Dragons is therefore powerful, yet painfully incomplete. It shows how close Korea came to creating a work of world-class moral art — and how little it takes for greatness to be lost when courage is replaced by compromise.

An epic historical drama based on real history...

As a lover of gritty saguk dramas, this fully lived up to my expectations and even exceeded them. This drama was a very intelligent blend of real historical events/characters and fictional ones. The real life characters bring the reality to the drama and the fictional ones breath life and excitement into it.

The acting in this drama is on another level, it's brilliant. The actors I enjoyed in particular were Yoo Ah In who played every aspect of Bang won's adult life superbly and Park Hyuk Kwon who played two separate characters but pulled off both of their distinct personalities.

The ost for this drama is breath-taking, the songs match the melancholy atmosphere of the entire drama and lift the already dramatic or emotional scenes to new heights.

One thing that needs to be mentioned is the sword fight scenes, out of all of the k drama's I've seen, this one has by far the best choreographed sword fights! Really, the only downside of this drama is that it can be quite confusing at times, mainly because of the overwhelming number of characters. Nevertheless, it's worth getting invested in. Since it's a 50 episode drama there's so much more I could say but really you should just give it a watch and see if it is your thing! I will say though, don't expect a light, happy, romantic drama because it's very far from that...

MASTERPIECE

I just wanna to say a big thank you to the people involved in the production of this series and of course the casts, this is AMAZING. Love the character development. The end of every episode just blows your mind and you just want to watch another episode to know what is going to happen. Lucky for me, all the episodes are released so I can binge in one setting! The death of each prominent characters (I shall not name who and you should watch to find out) brought tears to my eyes. I broke down even more during the last few episodes especially the hugging scene in EP50.. Things have to be sacrificed for the bigger picture, this is true indeed. Lee Bang Won just had to endure it and suffer alone..... :''')

Times flies like dragons, but don't change.

Finally finished it!

I'm a massive fan of "Queen Seondeok", and that's the main reason I watched watched multiple dramas from this writer duo. I have to say: So far, it's 3 out of 3. All three historical dramas they created were entertaining even if there were flaws with the story.

Overall they they didn't disappoint me. I gave it a 7/10 because let's face it, a long drama can't be perfect, it was dragged and but most importantly it was a bit repetitve, so just like with Seondeok, I can't give this a 10/10, but the acting, the directing, the score are top-tier and it has to be in my fave list.

I really don't want to go into details, because it's 50 episodes, and there's a LOT to talk about, but the MAIN STORY, the MAIN MESSAGE is the most important reason everyone should watch this.

You can take sides and even empathize with some of the "villains." or opposition, whatever we should call them, because ultimately every main character just wanted to build a better world. It's just a matter of which one harmed more people.

Just like Ddang Sae said:

"Don't look at the trees, look at the forest? You have no concern for the wild flowers that get crushed and die in the process."

Also, Gil Tae Mi:

"Since the beginning of time the weak have always been trampled on by the powerful. 1000 years ago and even 1000 years from now the weak will be stolen from by the powerful."

So, it doesn't matter how much good you want in the world, you're gonna hurt people in the process, and sadly Do Jeon was a really naive character and Bang Won was too agressive.


Imagine if they combined their power, they could've changed the world... or not, because even you can achieve peace and everyone can have a good life, it won't take long.


This is the ultimate message of the show in my opinion.

This is a very thrilling kdrama for me. The action scenes are very intense, especially the sword fights among swordsmen. The part that really hooked me was the part where they were invited to a banquet not knowing that they will be attacked - that was so intense ???

It's very educational. I have learned a lot about their history, and I was motivated to learn more ??

Every actors suits the character they're playing. I was really entertained.

Yoon Kyun Sang is actually the reason why I watch this drama, and I never regretted it. He is really amazing and his acting is really entertaining. I loved every scene that he's in.??? His scene when he wanted to challenge the best swordsman but failed really made me laugh.

Byun Yo-han is so appealing in his character. He's quite uncanny though -- a swordsman that looks so kind and gentle.?

This drama, however, is quite brutal for me. I don't know how to explain it, but I find it strange to see dead children and a kid being slash with a sword ?

This is a worth watching kdrama ??
