One of the only movies that makes me cry
Just rewatched this after seeing Doona Bae's IG stories hinting at new Kingdom content.
Let's get this out of the way: Ashin is even better than Kingdom seasons 1 and 2.
The emotional weight of the main character's back story is simply tremendous. It's tragic, brutal, and bittersweet. I absolutely love season1 and 2, but neither evokes the same level of emotion Ashin does. The set-up, the reveals, and the action in the second half are just insanely good.
I'm surprised to read comments that say "what was the point of this?" To me, the first 2 seasons of Kingdom happened so that Ashin could happen.
It's one of the few movies that makes me cry. And also one of the few movies I'll happily rewatch over and over again.
