Then maybe we can have a seson 2 in 2021? xD Cause Song Joong Ki will be busy for some months with his two new films, and they spent 8 months filmming the season 1 so... ='(
It's not as bad as Kingdom. They literally gave us 6 episodes and now we have to wait a WHOLE year for the next…
But we have to wait at least two years if they confirm a second season, because many of the actors are working in other projects, like Song Joong Ki. And they spent 8 months filmming season 1 so...
If they will film another season in the future or no (i don't know because the budget was 54 billons of wons that's like 2 Vagabonds, and some other dramas like Hotel del Luna or Memories of the Alhambra had better raitings with a lower budget) the raiting of this drama for me went from 8.5 to 7 with that 'season finale' or drama ending. So dissapointed about the writing. I loved the cast and the main plot, the costumes and many of the side stories.
That drama that made me really angry was Ashes of Love, i will never forgive the female lead for doing THAT to the male lead, everytime that i remember i... For God's Sake! -.-'
I find a little anti-climatic the way they cut the important scenes and close the history, also i was expecting a deepper reason for CM treason, his reason is like is so so, and don't fill me ='( But something really good about this drama is the main plot and the silent scenes, and usually the final scenes in each ep, like the 13 or 14. At the end of episode 14 i cried because Ma Go decided since the beginning that Man Wol should live, i cried when they show her putting the flower in CS heart, and then CS start to cry like a hopeless baby and my heart can't handle this ='( also i think that CS is a firefly, because in his dreams, you can see the camera angle like if the one seing the scene was flying.
I think the Hong Sisters have never done a second season of their dramas. Also the main problem with a second season is that this drama had terrible problems in production: 1. Edit errors that were later fixed with the apologize to the viewers. 2. A person of the enlighting was tragically in a paraplegic state due to overwork and an accident occurred due to the negligence of one of the producers, that generated a serious conflict that included a work stoppage (a Strike) and the National Union of Media Workers and the Ministry of Employment and Labor were involved. 3. A huge rumor about the actor Cha Seung Won refusing to work for a week because all the problems with the production crew (He tried to support them). - So, yes i think he won't do a season 2 of this drama. 4. To finish on time with the drama TVN had to add another 4 directors so that the scenes were divided and the recordings were faster. Now, all this generated cost overruns to the production, and yes the raitings were too low (5-6%) compared to what they were expecting due to the cost of the total production. PD: Also the Hong Sister were sued for theft of intellectual property by the writer Ttangbyeol (She is the autor of the webnovel Aeyug). But at the end the Hong sisters won the lawsuit. I'm sorry for my bad english ;)
