somewhere out of nowhere

I think if they didn’t give her makeup at all to wear as Mong Woo & changed her voice to a slightly deeper tone…
I mean if Jin Han likes dudes that’s not a problem to me. He can like both women & men 🤷‍♀️ that would be bold & neat because you don’t see that kind of character for a king/prince in saeguk/kdramas.

I just wish SSK portrayal/the presentation as a man was more believable so that Jin Han seeing Mong Woo as a man makes much more sense. Then the reveal/revelation of Mong Woo being a woman to Jin Han later on would hit much harder/effective.

tbh sae kyung does look like a really pretty guy - like total flower boy if you don’t know that she’s a girl…
I think if they didn’t give her makeup at all to wear as Mong Woo & changed her voice to a slightly deeper tone she would pass as a pretty man.

But yes it’s interesting far so I’ll let it slide 🤣

In terms of the story, I like it. Palace politics isn’t bad. The usual. The cinematography, production set, costume is high quality. The editing is flawless. Appropriate music. It’s movie-like filming. Overall the cast is doing a nice job. Veteran actors & many familiar faces.

JJS as Jin Han is so good! His eye /face acting is on fire 🤭💖❤️‍🔥He really sells the good nature-sad-tortured-happy go lucky-serious prince who wants someone he can confide in (like Mong Woo).

I like SSK here. ☺️I don’t have any issue other than the blatant makeup on her face. I don’t know why the producers thought it would be good for Mong Woo 🤣 It breaks the immersion. I feel like they decided to keep it on her face so they don’t have to reapply her makeup when she is not Mong Woo 🤣😒

The two leads have AMAZING chemistry OMG. They’ve only know each other for a few days but it seems like they’ve been friends for a lifetime already. The sensual TENSION is there ❤️‍🔥🔥💖🤭 When they are together I’m like JUST KISS ALREADY 🤭🤣 I love the scene when they played baduk together for the 1st time 🤭 & when Mong Woo helps dress Jin Han.

I’m excited for this one!! It gives me classic sageuk vibes. Something that I really miss.

My only complaint is SSK not looking like a man enough 🤣 She is too pretty. The makeup is too modern.

I hope they don't make a cis man play him. It would not make any sense considering the story and the GNC theme.
Yep. It makes more sense to have a women/actress play Mr Goh given the context of the story.

Am I too guarded or does that just sound like "yes, but it’s subtextual. Not totally explicit for those that…
I hope it’s shown like in the webtoon. When PD Jung said dramatized I hope that’s what she means 😭 or else 😒

And still no BuYoung
I think she might be in it. Maybe not officially announced yet? Someone said Jung Lael might be playing her due to her hair style in a recent photo of her on set? ☺️

So is the manhwa, LGBTQ+? I'm planning to read it. I am reading a lot of LGBTQ+ manhwas and books and planning…
Yes it is! It’s really good! 🌈💖
Female centric with interesting characters, story, & development!

No news of Mr Goh yet but it seems like almost every character is there in the drama but him?? His character is essential for JN character development & important to the overall essence of the story!! His scenes are so cool 😭

If you’ve read the webtoon you’ll understand what I mean 😔

Historical tidbit!
The checkered piece that Tae Ri is wearing ~ in the 1950’s these type of fabrics were brought into SK after the Korean War as aid relief. So she’s wearing clothing from aid relief efforts! And these knitted pieces (like the white knitted vest) were also worn in the 1950’s. It’s a nice detail to add to JN because she does not come from an affluent family (not wealthy)
