I have mentioned this several times before, and now my Count of Monte Cristo comparison is getting eerily familiar.…
Yes! Kang Pi-o's is Choi Jeong-yo's Mercedes!
Choi Jeong-yo was extremely naive and in love just like Danté, now he knows different languages and has so much knowledge about the world, his "jail" was the monastery and the streets.
The parallels between The Count of Mont Christ and this drama is remarkable, even with the 2002 movie version. For example, in the movie Mont Christ's friend/servant says he could go to Paris and end all of them easily, in the Drama ep 8, Jeong-yo's wronged way, but loyal, friend, said he could make them suffer than CJY tells him his plans.
Danté's father dies a tragic side effect death, CJY' s mother death is suspicious as hell and might have been caused in some extent to Pi-o's mother who might be pretending she tried to help calling the ambulance just like the magistrate did putting Danté in the carriage...
Let's talk about Hyeon-soo's hug, I cried so much 😭 To me, they're father and son 🥹
I think that might be the reason why Pi-o's mother harmed the other Jeong-yo's mother, her death was not an accident, the other one was jealous of her and her son.
Jaein... Idk to me she sounds as the surprise villain in this show, the person Pi-o saw in the rain seemed like a woman and she could somehow be helping his mother and trying to gain his love...
About the Maestro's wife, I think she is the one taking care of CJY or she might already know where he is before the rest of the family.
To me, this kdrama is a (VERY) queer codded one, I think that's the reason why they pushed the main couple final…
Not the same plot buuut have you seen The Devil Judge? The queer coding and the angst were screaming haha Captivating the King could have been like this too
This show could've been better if the romance stuff was excluded. I agree with everyone about the chemistry, it…
To me, this kdrama is a (VERY) queer codded one, I think that's the reason why they pushed the main couple final kiss scene with FL in man's clothing, plus the king in this is 100% queer as well.
Thank you! Glad you liked me review! I know there are people that don't like her in anything she does, they just…
The reason why she fits "Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung" is because that kdrama has tons of anachronism, it was like a modern kdram format in ancient clothing. ^^
As I said before, the ML carried the drama. Without him, this drama would have been an utter flop. That's some…
I think one of the best part of this kdrama was what you mentioned, they didn't make a comical thing about her being disguised as "him", she was always treated seriously, and thats an avance to all we saw so far.
This is bad but hear me out. In my history of watching Kdramas, this is the first time I skipped a lot of romantic…
Lady Dong arc was SO much more remarkable than the FL's one, why did they wrote her(FL) so poorly? Her choices were so ???? from the half of the drama and on
The Queer coded end that Kdramas like "Mr Queen" never was able to have. That's all I will say about the looong kiss scene with KHS in man's clothes. JJS, you won my heart with your master class acting! I'll not miss this kdrama althoug it was intresting, the construction of the FL by the screenwriters annoyed me a lot.
I almost couldn't take her seriously. Was seriously being serious about her being his wife or did she just want…
I think it is the first one because she didn't tried to alard him. It's the way the script found to "kill" KMW and finally bring HS to the king 😂 Let's see what will happens on today's episode.
I had to skip most of ep. 14. Maybe I've watched too many sageuks but I find the palace politicking immensely…
I thought I was the only one skiping and dragging a looot to watch ep 14, so boring, but it was not bad, just really boring that took me one afternoon to finish
