All characters are gray here. Gye Won is also gray from start to finish (most likely). Set the show in times of…
Grey characters are shady and tricky. We need to understand that, we - the audience - can understand them, but not white wash them.
All of them are wrong for what they did.
Park wanted to depose the Queen for his own agenda. They made her kill herself to save her son. The previous King was unable to save his Queen and let Park to blame his daughter in law's clan in order to save the officials. It was all said by Lady Park herself.
Who was right or wrong. It is crystal clear.
At least, Lee Tae saved his wife as he was taught by his Father and Mother.
Also, we are trying to decode what happened in another Era through our lenses who are from another time, i. e. Today. Historically speaking the comparison cannot be valid. We truly don't know how they lived their lives. We can have an idea if we have read History on that specific era of that specific Kingdom with their genealogies and customs.
While no one comments about it, the directing has issues. The first 8 episodes had no character development. Suddenly everything changes in the second half.
The jakkanim has made Lee Tae so lamentable as a king , that Lee Joon cannot do much to overcome this crying figure that cries in every single chance! This is something requested by the director!
The only character that is solid is Lady Park. Yes, she is a wise person, yes she should be the Ruler herself. Yes, she is very competent. I understand that. All we have...
Counsilor Park / Jang Hyuk has awakened, but I don't like that little by little his character became "grey". He killed innocent people. He is bad. They are trying to white wash him by telling us he is an idealist. Let us remember how many "idealists" did harm to the others around them...
It is okay to be amazed by the Cinematography / photography and montage / editing, but technically speaking there are issues with the script and the directing.
No, it is not you. I have a problem with Lee Joon's wet eyes. This is a directional advice that I don't like because it is draging for so long . I am waiting patiently to see how it will go...
The last minutes gave Counselor Park a stroke... Lady Yoo is very brave. At least, she told him by herself and he didn't find out from that traitor in the bamboo village...
Seriously? Where are the Admins to stop all these people who are attacking others!?
MDL is a website that we are writing about shows and plots / scripts, about good or bad acting, about good or bad directing. There are some RULES that we are all following because this is a place we are ALL GUESTS!.! We may agree that we disagree on how we are thinking about something, but I haven't seen such a havoc before!
What an amazing drama. It shows how wrong our society is. It doesn't matter where are you from. These things happen one way or another.
I was so pissed off. The worst nightmare of a woman is not a man. Is another woman herself who has lost contact with WHAT really makes you a woman. And those ones are the problem in the first place.
If Ryeon was protected by her "family" her death would be prevented.
I agree, she didn't commit suicide. She was forced to die by her Mother in Law who is the real culprit...
Along with all those who talk too much. Who repeat things that are not true, who are cowards and evil, who lie and don't care that badmouthing someone can affect his/her life...
Kudos to everyone involved. It is one of my favorite shows for 2022!
Let us be aware that all the matters that were shown to us happen every minute in every part of the World and a lot of people are hurt repeatedly....
What an amazing tv series! We get to see what happens behind the scenes of a heinous crime. Kim Nam Gil is a revelation. Most of the times, you think he is indifferent, you cannot read his eyes for instance, while his hands say another thing altogether! Bravo to everyone involved for this masterpiece!

I understand his reason for the uprise, but not what he did afterwards...
What is truly their difference?
The one was a tyrant who killed hundreds and the other an official...

Lady Yoo is the MVP of the episode 8!
Let's hope things will change. If not, I know who to blame! Not him obviously...
I am going to watch Ep. 8 later.
Let's hope they will set him free. He definitely has talent!
