I dropped The Princess' Man for the same reason. I needs the comedy.

And you are not going to find it in this one. :p

I actually like the drama tense and dramatic as it is now. I still haven't been able to watch past episode 1 of SS, it's actually been on my on hold list for almost a year.
I think every fictional tragedy needs its comedy. It's the natural way of things ....In Japan Noh (tragedy) plays used to insert some Kyogen (comedy) scenes to lighten the burden in the audience's heart, same in Greece and Italy with moment of absurd comedy in the most heavy tragedies...and just take a look at Shakespeare's work, always putting comedy in his tragedies... That's why I dropped Byakuyaku so many times before completing it...too heavy. But here you got the character of the King's servant who lighten the whole drama...I think that's enough...I think "The Moon..." is pretty well balanced...

I think it is too, but it's not a comedy genre like Sung...Scandal, which is what I think he was looking for.

So, I love when he (the king) does the ->Seduction thing to his eunuch so he gets flustered and stops nagging him.
That last scene in episode 12 almost had me screaming "Hajima!!!!!"
<-- But I guess it can't be helped. And ->I feel bad for poor Prince Yang Myung... I fear he will turn "bad"<-- and I don't want him too.
I like heavy dramas, but I like comedy too, I'd watch everything as long as it's not pure romance stuff as it's quite boring for me if there's no "action" :D Back too "The Moon embracing the Sun" ... I can't stand those cliffhangers, I can't wait to see the next ep :( ... It's such an interesting story :)
UGH!!!! just watched episode 12 and i'm wondering who stole Wol's expressions. i've said it before but she's just so FLAT. how is it possible to have the exact same facial expression having a nice chat as you do crying? is that something you have to try to do? is it hard? maybe she got a bad batch of botox and cant move her face.

yea, i'm sure Wol is exhausted from holdingher face frozen like that.
Yay for the extension! But I hope it doesn't drag towards the end like other dramas do.

They are pretty tired with that kind of harsh weather. :( But MBC's raking in big time ratings.
