Guys is it only me or everyone else finding odd that KING of this series doesn't have any DAUGHTERS!!!! I mean…
It is possible. In many Asian countries, there are known and proven methods to increase the chance of having a son or a daughter. This was commonly practised in the Royal class in many Asian cultures.
Many, if not all, of these methods were proven effective in modern days. There were even a few books written about it from a modern perspective, explaining scientifically the how's and why's.
I've read one such book, written sometime in the 1970s.
Some of these methods, and if you can combine them together, are: 1. food 2. sexual positions 3. woman's fertility status 4. health of the man and woman 5. orgasm state of the woman
#2 alone can increase the chance of having a son if you know which sex positions to do.
Combine that with #5, if you know what state the woman should be, then you yet increase the chance of having a son.
Me, my sister, and our youngest brother, are products of those methods. I'm the eldest, a son. I also know other parents who've tried it and were successful.
There's nothing mysterious, or magical, or supernatural, or superstitious about it. It's all about logic and science. It still is random, you are just increasing the likelihood of a son or a daughter.
What I dont understand is, if physician kwon is really queen's yoon son. Then when our Queen went to her house/hut…
They want revenge on the Queen Mother and his son, the current king.
Plan A is to kill the Crown Prince and use the Queen Mother to install Kwon's son.
Plan B is to keep killing the Crown Princes until the only one left is Kwon's son.
Plan A failed. Plan B is too risky because the Queen is involved already, and they had no idea that even King is silently moving himself.
Time for Plan C. Expose the wrongdoings of the Queen Mother and discredit the current King. By discrediting him, all of his legitimate sons will be barred from the throne.
Except for Kwon's son of course.
If that fails. There is Plan D. Blood. And that's a desperate move already because they won't have enough to storm the castle.
But, they are already preparing for Plan D. Get their people inside while they are trying to work on Plan C. So, if Plan C fails, they can easily commence Plan D, a bloody revolution. Kill the king and his sons, and forcefully install Kwon's son as the new king.
I understand life is hard. Very hard. But to use children, your own flesh and blood at that, to get money? That's E-V-I-L.
Even criminals, corrupt politicians and the rich, and professional hitmen, children are off-limits, be it their own or some strangers. Only E-V-I-L people, and psychotics, use children for whatever sh*t.
With the way the story of this episode flowed, I think it would've been better if the kid died. It will give a deeper felt impact to the E-V-I-L deed of her biological mother and adopted father. And then those two adults will always be kept alive inside their prison because the other inmates wouldn't let them go for the SINs they did to an innocent child, for the rest of their lives.
E-V-I-L adults. They don't deserve to die. They need to be kept alive even if they end up to be the last humans on earth.
A good way to end this once the real grandson appears:
1. Talk to the real grandson and make him agree that he asked for someone to act like him to give grandma good memories.
2. His reason for doing that is because he's stuck in China, in huge debt, and gangs are after him, and he's not sure if he'll ever see grandma again.
3. On grandma's last few days, he shows up, and he reveals the truth.
4. He defends the actors.
5. He sends the message his father told him, to grandma.
6. Yoon Hee's mother was also threatened by Se Yun because of her connection to selling the hotel. She will sue Yoon hee if Se Yun doesn't switch sides with her.
7. In the end, no cases were filed against the two actors because the real grandson protected them, and the two actors were under contract. As well as, Yoon Hee's mother switched side and protected them too.
Yes, at which point the grandfather was meant to be 14. Weird.
Thank you!
LOL, true. But you know, Koreans, they're so good at making an actor look like a teenager. hehehe.
And also, at least for the characters, it's probably still common in Korea back then for teens to get married… while the rest of the world already moved on from that tradition during that time period. (Though yeah, 14 is too young.)
It's a tvn TV drama not Netflix original, so episodes and everything depends on the TVN
Does it make any difference? Even “originals” of this and that, it was still Korean producers, writers, and directors, who planned everything every step of the way.
So, you know, just replace “Netflix” with “tvN”, the point remains.
GAWD! They must not limit themselves to 16 episodes! It's too fast! Just 4 episodes left, and for what? The war against the Chief State Councillor, the Queen Mother, and the rebellion.
I want to know more about the story of the Crown Princess, the other concubines, the other Princes, MORE!

Filipino-Argentinian, Chanty of Lapillus, will have a guest appearance.

And they all lived happily ever after.
Wait, that's a Disney ending, not Viki.
LOL.
I hope they give her more projects. She has that face, expressions, and acting style, that will make a lot of people love her and watch her projects.
Must be sweet for her to be able to work with her this time, instead of a younger version (and probably they never met more than a few times).
LOL, true. But you know, Koreans, they're so good at making an actor look like a teenager. hehehe.

^_^
When they don't need 16 episodes, they do 16 episodes.
When they need 25 episodes at least, they do 16 episodes or fewer.
LOL. They need to learn to identify which stories are better for which XX episodes.
Netflix needs to learn from Disney+. Disney knows which stories deserve to have 8, 10, 12, and 16, 20 episodes.
