Director Jung Ji In (who is also amazing director of JN Star is born) did propose shooting 20 episodes to MBC . But MBC didn't accept the idea cause they didn't expect The Red Sleeve would be their first massive rating hit in 3 yrs ( like it did that time ) and would be a moderate international sensation( It was quite popular in Taiwan) . So MBC denied 20 episodes to cut costs.
(For the popularity,the good) There is a source novel . At the time of airing, one of Junho's generous fans translated the original novel to english,so Live Audience of mydramalist kinda understood the story more by reading the translated novel.
In Korea, the source novel is popular as well as it is the King's Jeongjo 's love story after all. He was the second most beloved king of Joseon, Yes , it was rare for a King to love a Consort that much . ( Waiting for Her, Loving Her only until she passed away ,built a memorial garden ) He might not be the best husband. But He tried to be in his own way.
From Deok Im's side, it is a feminist story like Geumyeong's story (When Life gives You Tangerines) in Joseon era.
If not for scriptwriter & MBC , The Red Sleeve might end up being the masterpiece as it should be. I blamed the scriptwriter for jarring the story. She should have cut down the episodes of senseless Court Lady's cult scheming story & added more of San's & Deok Im's married life after DI had become a consort. (The source novel did have many scenes)
In the novel, there were a lot of scenes with their young Crown Prince. He was First Born & Deok Im's son, but CP couldn't call her 'Mom' because it was Joseon's tradition for the King's son to be adopted by King's Official Queen ,so the San's Queen was his official mom. San (Jeongjo ) loved Deok Im, but he couldn't change tradition. But in their private moment, he allowed his son to call Deok Im mom.
They had one daughter after the little CP. DI was very happy cause unlike her first born son, her daughter didn't need to be given away to Queen ,but unfortunately the princess passed away after a few weeks which was tragic for Deok Im.
Also about Yeoung Hui in the novel, (you know 4 court ladies were tight close friends. When she saw how DI was happy with a family (with young CP) , she developed a desire to feel loved too. So ,when a man showed affection to her , she started her own romance. But the problem was all court ladies were considered to be 'The King's ladies' in the palace . Her friend Deok Im's husband was the King ,but in her case , her romance became an affair that deserved the death sentence for her which was the reality of court ladies that time. The young CP's death due to measles was also unfortunate. I would say Jeongjo losing his son, daughter & his beloved wife in her third pregnancy was the most unfortunate thing happened to him. But sometimes Life gave you too much lemon at the same time. If all these scenes appeared in the drama, the drama would better be explained in a sense.
In the drama, the female lead fell for male lead's leadership to his country & male lead fell for her loyalty. When he thought he would die, she was the person he wanted to see while she ran breathless just to save him. They were in love . She came to love him for his loyalty to his country and it was the very same reason she refused him because his dedication to his country was the reason he could not be a proper husband (the simple husband who could be hers only & all their children could call her 'Mom' freely ) .She was a free bird in mind & not belong to the King's Harem just to be a sitting duck. It was quite tragic that she wouldn't refuse him anymore after Queen Dowager's threat. (It was either to become the King's concubine for protection or sent far away from the palace(country) which meant she would never hear or see San again in her life).Both options were quite hard for her
But she chose him over her freedom in the end because she loved him that much. But he would never the extent of her love because he was a King. Their love was bittersweet because one felt caged to be close to the one she loved while the King would never understood that sacrifice due to their social differences. To be fair, she never confessed ,so he was never sure hers was Love or her loyalty.
Viewers came out mad either at San or Deok Im in some reviews, but this does point out sometimes love can't be perfect when there are social restraints.
If the scriptwriter could explore more on this aspect, the drama would be perfect which she failed to do so. Maybe this was why she wasn't Baeksang nominated. The drama decided to focus more on San (Jeongjo's story) more than in the novel , there was already a tonal shift in the drama from the source novel , but in the later part of the drama, I always felt she couldn't decide which parts she should take from the novel which caused jarring of the drama in the last few episodes.
Acting is personal taste , so fully respect your opinion. In my opinion, Director Jung Ji In & the Acting saved the drama Junho & Seyoung have that cute chemistry as the less responsible young Crown Prince & carefree young maid when they were younger.
When he became Jeongjo, the mood became heavy,and they have necessary angst push & pull kind of chemistry. Both leads played well in young & mature phase of their characters.

Now the concerts are over, filming for the Drama 'Typhoon Company' may have started after a few days .It has already started without Junho.
The Performance & Set List in Taiwan & Brazil are not that different from Incheon & Japan.
Some of the memorable moments in Taiwan & Brazil Taiwanese Fans gave a customized mini car as a present to him (Since they knew Junho had a tendon injury & they didn't want Junho to move so much )
I don't understand why the main leads can't be together???
The Class Difference . In Joseon, ppls from different classes couldn't end up together.
It is the reverse of The Red Sleeve. FL is a court lady ..so she could only be a concubine, would never become a Queen. But it is a King's Harem so they could still end up together. For other ppl, even getting together was a No No.
(Junho got a tendon injury during practice,which was day before Midnight Sun In Incheon Concerts . He saw the doctor after Incheon two day concerts had been completed & has been taking treatment (cast and crutches for walking) and he uses a cane for Midnight Sun in Japan.)
Netflix is better at with posth names .The Queen they mentioned after enthronement of Yi San is Yi San's Queen, Hyoui. In History, they got married around 7 or 8 according to Royal's Family Tradition. In the drama, I think in time jump 3 years after his enthronement.
No... because it was based on HistoryIf you want this to end with a happy ending,stop at ep 16 and refrain from…
It was based on Real History of King Jeongjo and his consort Uibin Seong. The drama had the same ending as History. In ep 17, their son little Crown Prince died with measles. Uibin died from sadness while Pregnant.
The King had to take another consort because he had no legitimate heir.
The ending scene is after years passed, he was on his deathbed & he lost consciousness (he was in limbo) ,he met his dead wife in his dream who was waiting for him.
If he woke up from this dream , he would be back to real world and back to being a King of his people . But this time, he chose death over His Duty and His People to be with his wife in death (Aka Heaven where they could finally be united and loved each other because he was no longer a King and chained to his duties)
In History, King Jeonjo was one of the Greatest Kings & Leaders of Joseon. But he had a burden who was his father Crown Prince Sado, who died as a madman and a sinner.
Jeonjo (San's) Grandpa was the son of the female protagonist of Dong Yi K drama, King Yeongjo. Since King Yeongjo mom was a low born, he was afraid to be called his Ancestry as a dirty one. This was why he was extra strict on his son (Crown Prince Sado) & his grandson, Yi San. Sado couldn't bear Asian parenting which drove him to madness. Yi San had to bear the great responsibility of being a Crown Prince after his father died.
He met Lady Uibin as a playmate when he met her at his mom's house (During his time away from the Palace due to his father's issues). She was like a first love to him,but due to unknown reasons, she rejected him twice to become his consort. (Court Ladies were considered belonging to the King, so the rejection could make him kill her but he couldn't do so. But at the end, she ended up becoming his consort.)

Junho & Seyoung have that cute chemistry as the less responsible young Crown Prince & carefree young maid when they were younger.
When he became Jeongjo, the mood became heavy,and they have necessary angst push & pull kind of chemistry.
Both leads played well in young & mature phase of their characters.

The drama somehow took some creative turns ,rather than accurately following the History
https://youtu.be/IFOn3GkSUew?si=_Ys16yXk__ZBN0iT
The King had to take another consort because he had no legitimate heir.
The ending scene is after years passed, he was on his deathbed & he lost consciousness (he was in limbo) ,he met his dead wife in his dream who was waiting for him.
If he woke up from this dream , he would be back to real world and back to being a King of his people . But this time, he chose death over His Duty and His People to be with his wife in death (Aka Heaven where they could finally be united and loved each other because he was no longer a King and chained to his duties)
In History, King Jeonjo was one of the Greatest Kings & Leaders of Joseon. But he had a burden who was his father Crown Prince Sado, who died as a madman and a sinner.
Jeonjo (San's) Grandpa was the son of the female protagonist of Dong Yi K drama, King Yeongjo.
Since King Yeongjo mom was a low born, he was afraid to be called his Ancestry as a dirty one.
This was why he was extra strict on his son (Crown Prince Sado) & his grandson, Yi San.
Sado couldn't bear Asian parenting which drove him to madness. Yi San had to bear the great responsibility of being a Crown Prince after his father died.
He met Lady Uibin as a playmate when he met her at his mom's house (During his time away from the Palace due to his father's issues).
She was like a first love to him,but due to unknown reasons, she rejected him twice to become his consort.
(Court Ladies were considered belonging to the King, so the rejection could make him kill her but he couldn't do so. But at the end, she ended up becoming his consort.)
If you want this to end with a happy ending,stop at ep 16 and refrain from reading history.
For activities, he has a coming Solo Tour (For those who know him as a Soloist and 2PM Junho) there is Midnight Sun Tour in Incheon, Tokyo & SaoPaulo.
