Imagine thinking you're living safely in the home of your professional lawyer and then randomly find hundreds of posters, pillows, and t-shirts with your face plastered all over them, that she never told you about, hidden in her attic! That's WEIRD. He's probably worried she has hidden cameras in all the teddy bears too. He has no way of knowing she's not just as crazy as the lunatics who broke into his house. Wait until he finds out she cried over him having a girlfriend like a maniac. It's realistic that he would fire her and very unrealistic that he could ever fall in love with her after this. If I were him I would pack all my shit and go straight to a motel.

Completely agree.

Flawed characters are what make a great story, but flawed does not equal annoying. I find both leads annoying.

I've watched all 5 episodes and I meant what I said the first time. Thanks.

So far I genuinely don't like either of the leads, they're both annoying. The ML is an idiot and the FL is literally a braindead kpop fangirl who thinks all idols are virgins. I can't stand fangirls on twitter and I can't stand it here. I have zero interest in seeing a romance between them. The side characters and the mystery is the only thing keeping me holding on.

You just need to calm down and not take things so personally. People are allowed to feel how they feel and they’re allowed to express it, regardless whether it’s negative or positive.

Kdrama fans are also becoming like kpop fans because they’ve become overly protective of their favorite actors and demand toxic positivity from everyone because of it. The original commenter didn’t like the show and it’s their right to not like the show. I agree with them, I didn’t like it because it wasn’t good. People are allowed to have a different opinion from you without having to read a hypocritical essay calling them a kpop fan when the only one exhibiting fan behavior here is you.

I really like Lee Jun Ho but really hate his choices in projects. I haven't liked anything he's done since The Red Sleeve. I wish he would choose better roles.

Nope, and the dad is nowhere near special enough to put up with that nonsense. Fuck that kid fr.

If his ex didn’t want him to be in the child’s life then he has not told us that part of the story yet. Which is why I said I will wait until the next episode to hear if there is a better reason why, because the reasoning he’s given so far is unacceptable.

If that’s the case then “me and my girlfriend broke up, she took our son to Germany, and I made no attempt to see or speak to him in the last 14 years” is the entire explanation then he’s a deadbeat dad and that’s gross af. A breakup is not an acceptable reason to have never met your child in over a decade.

This is his second show that I’ve watched and I really like him! I think he has great leading man potential.

Anyone who is enjoying Chang Ryul in this drama, I HIGHLY recommend The Scandal of Chun Hwa. That drama has easily put him in my top 5 hottest kissers in kdrama history!

I actually got chills when he said the line about having a son at the end of that episode. It felt like a horror movie because that's an insane lie to tell, even by omission, but I understood why she forgave him. She wouldn't have given him a chance at all if she'd known he had a son straight out of the gate, and it was only because she gave him a chance that she was able to realize she could like him so much. I think that's why she forgave the lie. But him being a deadbeat on top of all that will be the last straw for me. I'll watch the next episode to see if he has a very good reason for abandoning his son and if he doesn't, I'm definitely out.

Thank you for this comment. Not watching this. Down with fish kisses.

Well I was enjoying this a lot up until episode 4 when I learned the ML hadn't seen or spoken to his son in 14 years?! Like... in 14 years you have not picked up a phone, gotten on a plane, or even sent so much as a DM to your literal SON? Wtf? Last time I checked, Germany has telephones, and airports, and the internet so there is zero excuse for this. Not that interested in any of the other storylines so I'm pretty sure I'm done with this drama, deadbeat dads are just not my cuppa tea.

Takes a lot of hard work to make a pseudo-incest plot boring but somehow they succeeded. Nothing about this was interesting, even when both "siblings" were making eyes at their sister at any given opportunity I couldn't even muster up any repulsion, I was simply just bored to death.

Super frustrating because plot has so much potential but I've only made made it to the end of episode 2 and already find the clown painfully boring to watch. Yes the king was a monster but his flaws are what made him interesting. The clown is almost too perfect and perfect people are boringgg! His annoying perfection has also done a stand-up job of ensuring he has exactly ZERO chemistry with the queen. Might have to drop this one.

There are hundreds of well-written titles on this site with scores in the 7s. I've been convinced for a while now that any show or movies with a score below 8 is almost guaranteed to be good. King the Land has an 8.3 on this site for example and that show is complete joke. A high score on this site means absolutely nothing.

I cried watching this because the woman the king fell in love with is actually gone! The scene where he was looking at his Dictionary of the Queen’s Language knowing something was off. 💔 I can totally see your BL angle.
