This is a no news article.
“….Jung Ye In is reportedly being considered…..”.
…” SUBLIME pushed back on the report, stating, "There have been no discussions….”
” Netflix likewise indicated that the casting process has not yet been finalized. ”
So what exactly was this article about, again?
Why did you write it?

I don’t see where your comments about the story itself justify such a low rating. In fact the same exact wording could be used to give the story an 10-star rating. Everything you said is true. The story of young King Dan Jong is most definitely heavy and how he was treated is deeply troubling. The history of the Josean Monarchy was all that and more. Like other countries, Josean had good and bad kings.
This is a true story. Overthrowing a rightful king and exiling him fully expecting him to die an early death was unethical then and would be unethical now. But that’s what happened. He would have died early, as planned, and not found true meaning to his life had it not been for the Chief and the villagers.
What about this story was frustratingly manipulative? Was the writer manipulating the viewer?
It seems you left out details to support your position.
How would you have written/directed it so this the story was better???

You might want to watch this film again. I think you misinterpreted Warden Heung Do’s actions. He was NOT a traitor to King Dan Jong. In fact he was the exact opposite. First, the warden was put in a no-win situation and had to choose his son’s life over the king’s. The king fully understood that decision, it is why he continued to leave the magistrate’s compound. Second, in front of Myeong Hoe, KDJ quickly grabbed the warden’s collar screening at him, accusing him of being a traitor to him in order to SAVE the villager’s as well as the warden’s lives. It’s what a true king of the people would do. Third, WHD, in absolute anguish, carried out KDJ’s last request to end his life his way, not at the hands of the executioners.
The love between Heung Do and Dan Jong was mutual, beautiful, and full of trust. How could it be interpreted any other way?

Talk about pushing someone to making an extreme choice!!! I thought that just before the last scene in Ep 4.
Interesting thought that they are blood related. That would be a super interesting plot twist - and if so, it’s probably Teacher Do. Seems most logical at this point.
I doubt it’s that Jeong Yo’s ‘father’ can’t stand the sight of him. His pushing him away to protect him. But another reason to give up on life.

Both boys are between a rock and a hard place for different reasons. My heart goes out to both of them. They both want what every child / adolescent needs - acceptance, love, and nurturing from those that supposedly love them. The lack of these critical needs is why so many young people make wrong, life-altering decisions.

So far, the driver in this story is Pi-O’s mother. Not even the narcissistic, beyond self-absorbed with his very breath. grandfather. She doesn’t have it in her to accept defeat of any kind.

Let’s see what next week brings.

Another incoherent, willfully misinformed comment posted 8 whole days after this article posted. Your intent is to dig up these articles to keep the hate pot stirring and nothing more.

First sentence: No facts. Just words with no discernible meaning.
Second sentence: how unbelievably disrespectful to him and his family to add Lee Sun Kyun’s name so carelessly to your - again - incoherent, willfully misinformed post. This is as mean as it gets.

How can anybody take these unintelligible hate comments made without reason or verifiable facts seriously??

Then don’t look. Seriously. Keep your health.

No one is asking you or forcing you to look his way. Today is 9/6/2026. You had to dig up this article from 8/28/26, 10 days ago, in order to add your comments - which suggests you chose to look his way. That’s hypocritical, don’t you think? (No need to answer - that was rhetorical.)

All these hate/negative comments on an article now buried in MDL’s news posts seem all too coordinated to be genuine. Just sayin’.

You seem willfully misinformed. Get your facts straight then come back.

This is a disgusting post

Certainly GM has planed his comeback to some extent. The overwhelming positive responses KSH has received everywhere he goes indicates a public elated to see him back.

Being offered 40+ scripts, right after investigators announced the claims against him were fabricated, reveals how anxious the industry is to have him back.

He’s going to move forward regardless of the fake negativity (it’s becoming more and more apparent most of the negativity across social media is coming from fake accounts).

You are late. Everybody is past that fake nonsense.

All these willfully ignorant posts are quite tiring. Accusations like the one you gave require irrefutable evidence. If you cannot provide it, stop here.

There is plenty of real evidence proving KSH had nothing to do with her death. If you keep scrolling in this thread there are posts from posters that include enough links so your research will be easier to clear any confusion you have between facts and fiction.

Kim So Hyun is a quality veteran actor at 27 who needs no defense with her stellar 20-year filmography. Choo Young Woo shows veteran quality acting at 27 and he has already proven his acting chops in just 5 years. They have the talent needed to pull off such a diverse and serious drama. I’m certain we will not be disappointed.

Her death is undeniably tragic. No one said otherwise. But, after all that has been officially revealed, where is the irrefutable evidence for the ‘fact’ you just stated? Or is this a Bot account because it looks like this is a new account.

I’m beginning to think My Drama List (MDL) is fueling - and loving - the anti- KSH rhetoric. Making heinous statements about KSH without evidence IS slander / defamation. The continued collusion among the haters is cyber bullying and/or cyber stalking. All are illegal. By allowing it to go on - unchecked by MDL - are they not party to these crimes?

At this point, slandering KSH is actually slandering the professionals who spent months investigating not just the fabricated evidence. They did their own independent investigation into KSH and concluded he was innocent of any wrongdoing.

Good question.

Glad to hear it. CWJ is a very good actor with excellent screen presence.

Kim Sae-Ron supporters are directing hate and disgust in the wrong place. Kim Sae-Ron never accused Kim Soo Hyun of anything. Her family and Kim Se-Ui are the accusers, who used Kim Sae-Ron’s life as their source to create fabricated evidence (all documented) to smear/defame Kim Soon Hyun. I encourage you to do your own research to discover what their ulterior motives were.

In their failed attempts to accuse KSH - they defamed Kim Sae-Ron who could not defend herself.

Disgust should be directed toward them for what they did to her - how her family used her - in life and in death. And how the charlatan, Se-Ui and the two lawyers only saw KRW signs when they joined with her family in their campaign against KSH.

When people have to fabricate evidence to accuse someone of something, you know that someone is innocent. KSR’s family and Kim Se-Ui knew KSH was innocent. If Se-Ui was truly concerned about justice for KSR, he should have directed them to the police first. He did not.

If KSH was truly guilty - why didn’t the family 1) go directly to the police instead of the internet, and 2) why didn’t they provide real, authentic evidence instead of fabricating it? Answer to both questions: there was no evidence of any wrong doing. The months-long investigation proved there was no evidence to support any claim or idea that KSH wronged KSR. But if those who are still trashing KSH have real, undeniable evidence to support your claims by all means bring it! Everyone is anxious to see it.

Yes, I’ve seen your Threads posts and have ‘liked’ many of them. They are extremely insightful. I’ll DM you over there in the future - I have a different name, of course, on that platform.

@Falhon Cyril

I’ve been scrolling through these comments and am beginning to see a pattern. I think some posters (KSH anti-fans) are goading you. They see the depth to which you respond and it just seems like they are enjoying poking you with a hot poker by repeating so many of the same things they and others have posted - posts that you have also responded to.

The other thing I’ve noticed in general, not just in my recent scrolling, is how the vast number of her supporters are defending Kim Sae Ron as KSH’s accuser. [I suppose because he defended himself he is, by default in their minds, accusing KSR.]

Her family and Kim Se-Ui are KSH’s accusers. KSH defended himself against THEIR accusations. Attorney Ko was clear about what he and his team were doing, clearing him of the accusations against him made by the aforementioned accusers. They deliberately kept KSR out of their defense work as much as possible - to the point where Attorney Ko warned KSR’s mother (in November) not to continue defaming her daughter’s memory, to which he didn’t listen.

In their, now defunct, attempts to smear KSH, it is Kim Sae Ron’s family that actually defamed Kim Sae Ron. Especially now, since the investigation looked beyond those accusations to determine that KSH in no way had a relationship with her as a minor, KSR supporters should be talking about how her family and Kim Se-Ui defamed her. That is, if they truly support her. I recall early on, her husband released a SM message saying in effect “don’t look at Kim Soo Hyun, look at her mother.” No-one on KSR’s side seems to remember that. Are they true KSR supporters and or defenders or just haters in general?

Nevertheless, keep up the good work championing the fact that truth matters - by showing us what it actually looks like.
