This will discourage productions from making saeguk dramas. The most I feel bad about are actors. They choose…
As someone who watches alot of cdrama made with censorship, this will warn the makers to avoid things that might rage the netizens. Some boundries are always needed.
So what exactly made the korean people angry? Which scene in the drama made them to cancel an entire series with…
I think it probably has something to do with how significant those historical figures were. Joseon Exorcist used the historical figures of King Taejong and Sejeong, who are two of the most important and/or respected kings in Korean history.
Taejong was the king who first created Joseon from Goryeo, but this drama portrayed him as a madman who killed his own people + resorted to using demons to create his kingdom.

They should have just respected the main historical facts and avoided naming such significant figures if they were so adamant about interfusing Korean history with fantasy.

I feel ya. In between waiting for the subbed episodes, I have gone back and finished reading the novel, finished…
Is Thousand autumn engaging? I really am in mood to read something good. How's the relationship or maybe give a brief review of what the story is about? (:
I'm very early on in the novel but I imagine someone delicate and handsome as XL and more defined and sexy as HC. So far the cast is not what I imagined at all.
