According to Xports News, viewers are now saying that the tone of recently released footage looks slightly different. Some feel Ju Ji Hoon's skin tone appears more natural and have speculated that the color grading or lighting has changed. Comments online included "Looks like they changed the color grading, I love it," "The filter seems a bit softer," "The grading changed, and the props and costumes look more luxurious too," and "The lighting is brighter, so it looks much better."
However, it has not been confirmed whether the color grading actually changed, and skin tones and the overall mood of a scene can also look different depending on each scene's lighting and filming conditions. The series has drawn a range of reactions since its casting was announced, from the actors' visuals to its costumes and props.
The Remarried Empress stars Shin Min Ah as Empress Navier, who is told by Emperor Sovieshu (Ju Ji Hoon) that he wants a divorce and responds by asking to marry Prince Heinrey of the Western Kingdom (Lee Jong Suk). New episodes are released every Wednesday on Disney+.
