It would be a crime to do a genre with a palace trope and not cast Jo Jae Yun and Park Joon Myun, haha I am glad I see them here. And many others. I love the supporting cast.

I am not even considering the second leads, because I guess everyone knows them. But the entire supportive cast? From court ladies, to personal assistants, office attendant, to that Lord yeong something, family of FL, they are all known faces. Like I almost have seen 80% of the cast before in many roles.
This is truly a high budget project with so many huge known faces, aesthetics and cinematography.

I hope they maintain the comedy part and do not turn it into sorrowful, like its Byeon Woo Seok and IU, and I have traumatic experiences due to their respective roles previously. Them being very happy and cheerful is already very frightening to me! Huhh!

Also I love the Queen Dowager/Queen Mother/SFL. I mean I get people are angry on her. But I got a beautiful woman, who is obsessed with power, wants to secure her son, wants to defeat the ML through any means, but is not obsessed with ML. Ahh, love such women! My last drama of this genre was King Eternal Monarch, and contrary to popular notions, I loved it, its still one my top 5 kdramas. That one also had a power obsessed woman, and I love this plot.
Ahh, rich beautiful people, palace politics, fake to real love, I already love this.
Just hoping Steve Noh's character and ML do not have a lot of problems over FL, I mean they are already good friends, I would hate an unnecessary love triangle. Please!!

Also did I mention how pretty our leads are, and I absolutely love their badass characters, huhh, finally leads wanting things for themselves, being a little selfish and giving it back to people.

I am sorry for ranting so much but its my comeback to kdramas after long , and I am pretty much excited. Can't wait for tomorrow!

Episode 1

Yayyy, long time no see! Haha that's also because after POJ this is my next drama.

So true, like from the aesthetics to dialogues, everything feels different, known still different. Guess we all were very deep into cdramas, haha!

Exactly. Watching a kdrama after months and its feels so different.

In my country previously we had access to Disney via Hotstar, but a year back they terminated their agreement, and Hostar turned into Jiohotstar. So we have no access to Disney. Huhh.

The project is of MBC, the streaming rights went to Disney, they aren't the producers/owners though. I think it would have been convenient if the streaming rights went to Netflix instead.

They should have released this on Netflix, that's accessible, convenient and user friendly for most. This is one of the most hyped projects in this year, with a large cast, actors with huge fandoms even internationally. Wdym there are countries where you cannot even watch this without pirating. What a weird thing to do!

Also hoping it will finally wake me up from the Kdrama slump, I am going through since the last 5 months.

I have waited almost a year for this. Finally, its today.

Jiohotstar has not officially confirmed its airing, so till now we don't know. We have to wait till 10th of April to confirm it.
Disney plus subscription should be taken separately if its not available in Jiohotstar.

Its now Jio Hotstar in India, so release of some dramas like this one might vary. I actually just knew Disney plus, after you mentioned I realized its also in Disney plus hotstar so we might have a chance. But till now Jio Hotstar has not officially confirmed the presence of this series in its platform- if we search Perfect crown in jiohotstar, there is nothing, not even the trailer.

I think ML is the regent. His elder brother seem to be the previous king, who died or something, and its his son who is the current king who is a small boy.

Nope.
Edit- When I said Nope, I meant Jiohotstar has not officially confirmed the airing of the series on its platform, neither its trailer is available if we search by its name on the platform. So we might need to wait till 10th for official confirmation.

Hahaha.

Yeah, Song Yan, FL's ex. Yeah just as someone else as well said, the guy who played his character, also acted in a BL series, which is frowned upon in some sections in China. Hence to avoid controversies, the makers of POJ decided to replace his face by AI.

Ahh, on a drama hiatus these days, but missing the good old days here.

There is no such change. Deng Kai is the only one who plays Qi Min in the drama. Maybe you misunderstood.

Yeah its just not you, everyone got annoyed by her. I have never hated a so called positive character(who isn't evil by nature) so much more than her.
The only criticism of this drama I have is her and the weird thing she had going on with both the evil brothers.
