Sageuk Lover

Through the Darkness was a great drama. So is Reborn Rich (unpopular opinion, this is better than Vincenzo though Vincenzo is really funny).

she's young and she's a carefree young woman. sure she had some education, but she's very sheltered at the same time, so she's not exactly aware of all political happenings around her at the first few episodes especially since she wasn't present in many political scenes (when ministers and king are meeting). remember, this is the historical period, so it should be forgiven she's not super aware of what's happening. she gets mature once she becomes aware though. plus the trigger for decision to cut her ties with her father was when the father put the young former king in exile, this shows she had been more aware of what's happening when she matured.

she was quite popular in the 2000s. I I remember seeing a fanmade video that time and she was included in the creator's fave actresses. She also had a movie with the second guy in Meteor Garden, I might check it out for her.

it was entertaining but part of the reason i can't give it a 9.5 is I just finished rewatching another Chae Won drama (The Princess Man, 2011), older than this show but which was a masterpiece in storytelling compared to this one. not gonna deny this was entertaining though and this show's advantage is that it has song joong ki, one of Korea's best actors.

this feels like an old kdrama, so the kdrama audience who were not kdrama fans in the 2000s might not like it.
I like the grandma very much, having watched both Under the Queen's Umbrella and Reborn Rich (both good shows), it's nice to see a very genuinely nice grandma who cares for her family more than her ambitions

I actually predicted that they will feature 9/11 in this drama since they were featuring real life events (since 2521 featured real life events too).
What a coincidence that since some episodes in the past weeks were postponed , they showed episode 9-11 in the same weekend were the 9/11 attacks are shown in an episode.

yeah, but blood connection is often stronger. plus this family do things for their own sakes, not gonna be surprised if grandma is also the same,

not sure. but what I really want is for Chae Won to have an equally important part in the drama as Lee Sun Kyun, but it doesn't seem like it based on the posters and stills released. Hope the poster above isn't final.

the grandma isn't dojun's father's mom, so it's easy for her to ignore him

is she crazy? she's willing to kill her husband?
and i thought the grandma in queen's umbrella was bad.
ok well, both of them are bad.

me too since I think Law Money is the direct Korean translation

they're changing titles, it's quite common.

i cringe whenever she speaks.

Jin Hwa Young and her husband actors are so good in this episode.

really a great drama, just finished my rewatch.

thank you for explaining, I now get why she suddenly agrees to marry him.

you may want to check out Flower of Evil (starring the different actor who will do Arthdal season 2) first, it's easier to get into, and then check Arthdal Chronicles (SJK drama) after, then you can wait for a few months til 2023 when season 2 airs. An additional trivia about Flower of Evil is that the female lead worked with SJK in his first drama where he is the main lead, The Innocent Man from 2012 (makjang melodrama, there are some plotholes but the acting of the 3 leads are really great).
I also suggest historical dramas if you want to search for more kdramas. For me: Queen Seon Deok, Six Flying Dragons, Jumong, Tree with Deep Roots, Painter of the Wind, Princess Man, and Hwang Jini are really great historical dramas. Most of them are older than 10 years though, might not suit your taste. If you want a newer historical drama, you can try Red Sleeve and the recently concluded Under the Queen's Umbrella.

same, because i didn't find her acting annoying or irritating.

I think I read somewhere he washes his face with milk or something.
