A Tale of Potential and Missed Opportunities

Drama set in the Goryeo era, presenting an intriguing storyline with significant potential. The plot centers around a queen who navigates the treacherous waters of political intrigue to protect her kingdom. Despite its promising premise, the series falls short in several areas.

With only 8 episodes, the drama struggles to develop its characters fully, leaving many arcs feeling incomplete. The ending, in particular, fails to provide a satisfying conclusion, leaving viewers with more questions than answers. Additionally, the series includes numerous scenes reminiscent of “Game of Thrones” that do little to advance the plot or deepen character development.

Overall, “Queen Woo” offers an interesting glimpse into the Goryeo period but ultimately doesn’t live up to its potential due to its rushed pacing and underdeveloped characters.

Witness a Queen struggle in a male dominated world

The first 4 eps are out and i must say this just hit the nail for me!

Story :
The story itself is pretty good, we see a Queen struggle in a world where man decide everything and women need to sit a side and stfu. What makes This drama great is that for once you see a Queen that is set to make her mark in this male dominated world but it will come with struggle and pain. We also see that you can not trust the one close to you because they prey on your downfall.

Acting:
How Jong-Seo is protraying the role of Queen Woo Hui makes me wanna see more of her playing in historical drama’s or drama’s where the FL needs to be strong to gain acceptance.
Ji Chang Wook as the King is just something i wasn’t familiar with, but the man can play everything he wants. But the one i wanted to see and he hasn’t disappointed yet is Kim Mu Yeol, the man is just that amazing, the way he is protraying Eul Pa So makes me think that he may not be trusted but i need to wait until the next 4 eps comes out.

Music:
The music itself is oke, it makes it up for the suspense and it captivate the time periode we are witnessing.

I see a lot of people complaining about nudity and that, but failed to understand that this was common in that era. Don’t place your focuse on nudity only, but focus more on the story and you will be captivated. It does have potential and im just bum we only have 8 eps, but on the other hand it can be good for a drama like this.
