Jang Man Wol and Ryu Seon Jae are back in a ROYAL SETUP!✨
Finally a worthy Kdrama to watch! Honestly I've been quenching my thirst for good stories with Cdramas and a drama like this drops and it feels like Kdrama industry finally back in groove!!!😇
IU did it again! The QUEEN's back!!! I just love her in sassy queen roles! After Hotel Del Luna finally I see her in another sassy role and I love every bit of it!!!🥰😎❤️ IU as Seong Hui Ju and Byeon Woo Seok as Grand Prince Yi An are just perfect!!! Honestly I wasn't sure how good the story would be when the trailer was out given how grand scale of a production it has and two my favorite actors were in it, but it did not disappoint at all! I love every bit of it! I love how we see the background of both the characters and what makes them the way they are...
SPOILER'S AHEAD -
Hui Ju is the literal definition BEAUTY WITH BRAINS! She is a QUEEN in all ways just limited by her title and family background...While Yi An is from a royal background and hence suffers from the heaviness of it...They are shown to be acquainted via the same royal school...Where HJ is shown to be extremely competitive and excels at everything she does but still gets judged and looked down upon for lack of title...But she fights through it all and goes on to become a CEO of her own beauty company and makes her own name but is still being looked down upon due to her lack of title and noble family connection which she decides to fulfil by marrying Grand Prince Yi An cause why not, a QUEEN deserves a KING!!👑✨She being the confident sassy girl she is proposes to Yi An about a contract marriage to which he initially refuses a lot of times but our persistent QUEEN keeps showing up and tries to convince him countless times...Until he eventually agrees and now we'll see how it will proceed!
I love the contrast they have shown in the way both have similar backgrounds in that they are both born and considered illegitimate but while she has fiercely and bravely faced it he has put up walls and shows less of himself and hides his true side...We all see the contrast in their dressing where he chooses mostly black or muted colors while she chooses bold and colorful palette for her dresses like RED which shows her BOLD and FIERCE personality!😎🔥
Honestly I love the chemistry between the two all levels I see hints of their previous works here like IU's Hotel Del Luna and Byeon Woo Seok's Lovely Runner! The first meet between Yi An and Hui Ju just looks so beautiful! Her in that beautiful RED DRESS 👠 like RED is so her color! And we also see hints of Yi An having a crush on her as he admires her from afar! Honestly I initially thought only he liked her from 1st ep but now that I've seen the 2nd,3rd,4th ep it shows some of her caring sides for him too like her looking at his taste in paintings and identifying that he seems to like cats and then later when he gets sick she is the one who calls a doctor for him and also tells the doctor not tell anyone that he came to treat the prince and that take it as he came to treat her and she later also got sandwiches for the his assistant...Like we get to see that she can also be caring and affectionate when needed but she saves it for only those who truly deserve it! She even saves the "Honor Flowers" from their archery competition! 🌸
So given all that I've seen till now I'm honestly excited and looking forward to what more this show could offer and hope it doesn't disappoint!✨
