I just watched the opening of the show and I already loved it! Is the rest as good?
Yesss! Just so your expectations are straight, it’s more character driven than plot driven. There’s the general setting and then we’re shown how the characters react/develop towards each micro situation.
I listened to the comments here and watched ep 3-5. Yeokshi~ a main couple’s chemistry can make or break a kdrama. There was absolutely nothing new/unique in this but still I laughed, I fell and then poof gone! Definitely need a full drama with these two.

I visited SK once too and I find ajummas like it when I try to ask/speak Korean (basic stuff, how much is this, etc) but younger ones rather speak in English I find.
No sign at all right? I wondered if I just missed it, cause when I watched The Throne, Yisan was already married to what would be future queen by the time his father died.

Agree, the real life aspect makes a difference. I got so intrigued by his father’s death so I watched Sado (The…
Right? The only thing I may have wished for was if Yi San, when he took the throne towards the end, said his famous line “I am the son of Sado”. That would’ve given me major goosebumps, but maybe I’ll get to see our Junho do it instead.
