Though 6 Flying Dragons remain superior, this drama shows something that 6 Flying Dragons didn't. There was more time here shown on how Bang Won was as a king. In particular this drama shows his conflicts with his wife when he was King as well as how the Crown Prince Position went from Prince Yangnyeong to Prince Chungnyeong aka King Sejong. I really like the two actors playing the two young princes, especially Lee Tae Ri as Prince Yangnyeong.
Let me add after finishing all 24 episodes, Han Seok Kyu gave an Oscar worthy performance! The man can ACT.
you should watch him in Tree with Deep Roots. He was so fantastic there also as the king. His younger version Song Joong Ki was already great, but he even topped that performance. Han Suk Kyu for me should have won Baeksang best actor in 2012, I really felt he was robbed of that award. this drama is also on my list to watch, can't believe I didn't watch it before when I think I knew about this drama since it was announced.
Gosh I hate Yeomjong character so much. The actor did a really great job. Hard to believe he's the same good character in Princess's Man and Gunman in Joseon.
Boys Over Flowers => powerful high school boys bullying a female lead just doesn't appeal to me. It was also shown at the same time where historical kdramas with strong female leads and interesting villains were also shown (ex: Queen Seon Deok).
cant believe no one answered Jewel in the Palace, thought it was quite a hit. It may have been Stairway to Heaven as my actual first kdrama (on television), but Jewel in the Palace was the first one I have the complete episodes to watch and made me fell for kdramas. Although I also occasionally watch modern dramas (some on TV), the ones I really loved especially back then in the 2000s were the historical dramas. Some of them were shown on TV while a few weren't.
It's been 11 days. Wondering what's taking them so long.
they sent me a message they can't accept the photo. i did send them a cropped version of the photo, maybe the way i cropped it was wrong, maybe you can try.
they have a couple of sweet scenes. it's enough to satisfy the fans of the two actors who were disappointed by them being not a couple in their earlier drama criminal minds.
When watching Two Weeks after Good Doctor last year, I was happy he was there. What was amazing was that when I researched, I realized Two Weeks aired at the same time as Good Doctor.
I'm watching everything again, it's so good. I often watch my favorite parts at times, but this is the first time in many years I'll watch from start to finish.
He should do a drama with Shin Se Kyung a drama like run on
they were in five senses of eros (2009) together. it's an omnibus film, I forgot which part they were in. both were also in tree with deep roots but they had no scenes together (sjk appeared in the first few episodes because he was the teenage version of the king in the drama while shin se kyung is the adult female lead).
They held hands in the last episode and consider each other dating. They also almost got married (though they…
It was Hee Ah. They announced their relationship to their group of friends on the last episode. It was announced by mentioning they were cancelling their wedding (after the main villain died) and they mentioned they started dating. You'll be disappointed if you watch the drama for the romance though, Hee Ah usually has very little screentime throughout the show. The hints I can think of though was when she accompanied him before he entered military and there was also an episode where he bought a teddy bear for her. I think he had a playful banter relationship more with Hanmi especially in the earlier episodes, I actually liked their chemistry better though I don't necessarily care who Heewoo ended up with. In short this is not the show to watch if you crave romance, though especially in some of the earlier episodes you'll see Heewoo making friends with a couple of girls, most of whom became his friends.
They held hands in the last episode and consider each other dating. They also almost got married (though they liked each other but the main reason for getting married was they think it is one way the could defeat the villain from what I remember) but then they decided to postpone it.
