i watched both the episodes of the spinoff and it don't contribute much into the original storyline except 1. the king and queen had a love at first sight moment (more like got attracted towards each other) 2. BH wanted to go back to his original form and he misses his original body... i guess even though he grew attached to some people in the palace he always wanted to go back because he knows thats where he belongs... BH is a practical person and he started making emotional decisions only after his soul and SY's soul got merged... so it was expected... that scene gives the idea of the fact that BH after returning to the present, will move on and live his life but as a more considerate and compassionate human being...
i think ep 2 takes place during the timeline after the queen slept with the king and before she became pregnant.. they show a 20days time skip in the main story( the time for the pear wine to be made)...
except for these two points, the spinoff is like a skit with the characters of the original story... i don't think Kim hwan ever saw the face of the king but in ep 2 he not just has 1-2 encounters he talks to the king in the 1st scene as if he knows the king... going by the original story BI will never be playing with the rest of the gang in ep 2... i think kim jae gwen was already kicked out as a minister during that time but he was shown in the minister's robe...
even though the spinoff was funny and i loved seeing all the characters in a much more fun way, i think they could have utilized those episodes on SY and the king... they could have shown everything that happened b/w the king and SY in those 2 yrs through ep 1 and how SY and the king were doing after BH left along with BH's life in the present...
i've been thinking about the ending for quite some time and decided that it really wasn't that bad. i didn't expect…
i think the queen did take some of the character traits like swearing, lifting her skirt up and running, being bolder and stronger etc... she is much more liberal and free spirited... but then at the end SY is a girl from joseon era and BH is a guy from 2021... so her completely adapting a guy's traits and that too a guy from the present will also be an over exaggeration... after all she is the queen of a country...
i dont think there is a drama where everyone is satisfied... if the king dies then a lot of people will hate it,…
this drama is only loosely based on the novel and not entirely... they only took the concept andcreated an entirely different setting with real king and queen...
I think this was the ending all along, it’s just that they never expected the chemistry to be so off the charts…
i think this was a closed script because the scenes in the city seems to be shot at the start as the people on the streets were not wearing think winter clothes were as the actual shooting ended in dec last or jan starting when its extremely sold... i think they shot choi jin hyuk's scenes all together at the start...
So sad new. Another random idol guy coming to occupy the place and making it flat, instead of a real actor. Kpop…
d.o is among the very few idol-actors who have both critical acclaim and commercial success... he has been part of some really successful movies and the korean general public appreciates his acting skills... he only did 1 drama as a lead and that is among one of the highest rated tvn dramas...
I realized we will never have satisfying ending for everyone. This was a decent one.
i dont think there is a drama where everyone is satisfied... if the king dies then a lot of people will hate it, if so bong stays as she is then BH in the present will live in a vegetative state forever, if SY dies and only BH stays inside the body then also the king will miss a part of the queen and if they both die and BH goes back to the present then it will be a bigger tragedy than moonlovers and BH will never be able to move on or be happy becuase he is attached to both the king and the queen and their death will also make the lives of every person BH cared about miserable... court lady, HY, king's friend and cousin, the chef everyone might be executed by the kims... will go completely against the genre of the drama... this is supposed to be sageuk comedy and make the viewers(majority) happy and not make people cry their eyes out at the end...
Ok, so we all knew the ending could go in two different ways. Whatever the ending was, some people would have…
exactly... whether its SY or BH who leaves, the king will always miss a part of sobong... with BH, he had antoher life to live and thats where he belonged...
watch it on your own and decide for your own... dont get influenced by other people's opinion or pov... if you…
since you decided to binge watch, you might not feel the frustration and irritation some of us felt for the characters... so you might enjoy it more...
The ENDING. Many are unsatisfied. Many are satisfied. I'M IN THE TEAM OF SATISFACTION.I guess the body swap happened…
Exactly... If so young left the body completely and only Bh stayed then also the king will feel like something is missing... It's not just the other way around... Also king always had feelings for the queen... So bong started showing some kind of consideration towards the king only after the soul merge and before that when the body was completely dominated by BH, the queen didn't care that there is a king in the palace...

Shs and kjh best couple...
i think they shot choi jin hyuk's scenes all together at the start...
this was the best way possible for them to end it...
