Well, that was even better than I expected. Lee Je Hoon is great, but it's common knowledge. Personally I do like the Chairman character a lot, I met such people. He kinda reminded me Logan Roy from Succession, the great award-winned US show, but younger, less grumpy and less, well, American, more Eurasian. His manners, way of speech, face expressions are spot on. The only questionable thing is music. But songs at the beginning and the end was okay, they sounded a bit like Tom Waits.
We don't even know if it's coming. I mean chances are good, but there is still no official announcement about renewal. Disney literally denied rumors about renewal this January, like we hadn't renewed anything, we were in negotiations, conversations were good, but nothing was decided.
1. They died in two batches in real life. Younger ones have already crossed the king in the show. They will be…
Probably no. The entire scheme about the bride for the crown prince was made for the sake of one specific courtier, the one who also cooperated with the concubine. He want to marry his daughter. The interview and competition were the queen's way to thwart it. As far as I know Sejong has/will have his own wife and concubines.
These episodes were too much. 1. The king tells the crown prince and princess to love each other and hold true,…
1. Because the crown prince's bride is much less powerful. Actually she isn't powerful at all. Her family didn't even try to cheat or lobby her in the show. The Mins, the queen's family used to be really powerful, they had their own intelligence service, their private army and so on. The crown prince wouldn't be a puppet of his wife's family, but the king himself was.
4. The concubine hasn't just served her purpose. The king had to give the queen something in consolation for murder of her two brothers (and her valuable asset). He couldn't just spare those two corrupted morons, they literally plotted to eliminate him and start an uprising. The concubine also crossed the line trying to make assignments in his household. He needs a tool, not another schemer.
I thought it would be two more episodes. Two extra episodes are the prequel. They wanted to put them just on the streaming service. Probably they have decided to release them on TV too.
Ok i want to ask few questions 1) i think all the queen's brothers have died becz of kings order.But two of them…
1. They died in two batches in real life. Younger ones have already crossed the king in the show. They will be eliminated as well.
2. Because the king had to hold the balance in the government and in the palace. He had just ordered to kill two queen's brothers, because they were planning a literal uprising. He had to give his wife some consolation. The concubine also crossed the line pressing to assign some herbal guy. The king didn't need another female schemer.
3. No, future Sejong is the queen's biological son. It was shown at the beginning of the show as her three sons were reading good and knew important texts by heart and the concubine's son was slacking (and he didn't have much education earlier). The third queen's son was future Sejong. You can see it in the subtitles.
Look at the brown-ish bottom of the picture.
March -- Hyper Knife
April -- Part 1 of Knock Off
June -- Nine Puzzle

As far as I know Tempest is supposed to be released after Low Life.
