And if he's proven innocent? The give the Baeksang back? Great idea.
No, for me he doesn't deserve it at all. If you watch the actor ompeting against him, the actor against him acted as King better in his nominated drama than your idol in Moon Embracing the Sun
yes! it has action scenes, but not as much as 6 flying dragons. but the drama is really excellent.
Technically, Six Flying Dragons is actually the prequel to this one since this was made first. You might get confused as Shin Se Kyung is also the female lead here, but her character here is totally different from Six Flying Dragons and has no relation to her Six Flying Dragons character at all. You'll see Yoo Ah In's character Lee Bang Won (portrayed by Baek Yoon Shik here) as an older King at the first few episodes challenging his son King Sejong/Lee Do.
i loved Boys over flowers. Its my go to drama in between dramas when I want to watch something old and familiar…
Yeah, but its annoying that drama (high school bullies bullying a poor student) is still well known and popular today whereas almost no one has heard of The Princess Man (about how the love story of the main couple is affected by the fact that their parents belong to rival political families and how they and some other characters try overcome what bad fate is given to them).
She's coming on SNL but I just wanted her to act again
She did some acting bits on SNL just earlier tonight (Korea time). You can check the tweets of this person (https://x.com/moonloverrgirll) to see some clips of her SNL acting but there are no subs.
yes never get his acting. Also Baeksang robbed Han Seok Kyu's award several times, including this year.
I didn’t watch his drama this year, but Han Suk Kyu was definitely robbed by this pedo guy way back 2012 Baeksang. Both played Kings in their nominated roles, but Han played a King who often debates with himself whether the choices he made for his country was good and his king character was more complex than pedo’s King. All pedo King did in his drama was cry and cry and cry and cry (his crying was so unnatural too). Pedo King’s younger version played by Yeo Jin Goo played the character better, in comparison Han Suk Kyu has Song Joong Ki as a child actor but he was able to elevate his Kingly performance more. I’m not even gonna mention that Tree with Deep Roots is so much better than Moon Embracing the Sun (whose best parts are the child actors) and Han plays a better character too. They should really take away pedo guy's award. This has annoyed me for years and only now I can express this thought of mine because this pedo King was way too overrated.
Are Kim Tae-ri and Lee Byung-hun playing romantic interests in this drama?
Yes, but there romance is not like they are kissing and saying I love you all the time. It’a more about yearning and subtle confessions implying love. You’ll see through their eyes but their scenes together especially in the latter episodes imply how much they love each other
Baeksang should take back his Moon Embracing the Sun baeksang (which he never deserved) and give it to the real winner for 2012 baeksang which is Han Suk Kyu who played a more complex King for Tree with Deep Roots.
I like these old sageuks wayy more than the new ones they make nowadays
Me too. Red Sleeve and My Dearest are two recent ones that are extremely good. There's Jeongnyeon but it's set in the 1950s and I think Queen's Umbrella is not to your taste
Huh? How is this supposed to happen? Both Lee Sung Min's character and Song Joong Ki's actual grandson character are dead! They are the characters we spent tim the most in this series. They're just going to ruin it. Just give a new drama that includes both Joong Ki and Lee Sung Min. Maybe they'll focus on the other grandchildren characters?

2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkSBWedxsaA&list=PLxfhbpox4ajSAxgVq4Syo_RTH9Z5svxnG&index=20 - has English subtitles, you can watch everything but focus particularly on all the scenes of the King and the guy he's arguing against.
