I put this show off for quite some time before finally getting the will to watch it and hell it was legit one of the best historical if not kdrama I have ever watch. the unpredictable sobong literally never fail to make me laugh SHSโs acting is SO GOOD I WILL NV SHUT UP ABOUT IT. Kim jung hyun did such a good job with his emotional acting alongside sobong and his persona as the king mindblown as well THE LEADS ARE SO AMAZINGG
The script is so well written you can never guess what will happen next or what the characters will say next. Besides, it rly kept to its promise of being a comedy drama from the start to the very last episode. The side characters hong yeon and court lady choi are sooo entertaining luv them so much wif our queen (best trio ever ๐
๐ค๐ป)
The balance between political conflict and comedy is so on point then you can be laughing one second and ur blood will be boiling the very next (basically an emotional rollar coaster)
Anyways the ratings already spoke for itself BEST DRAMA OF 2020-2021 ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐
edit: saw some comments online being baffled by the ending, personally I felt that cheoljeong already fell in love with soyong as we can see from the spin off but was hesitant due to her status as a member of the Kim clan. With bonghwanโs soul in soyong, IMO he played the role of a spiritual guide for soyong to realise her inner self and strength as seen in ep 20โs cursing ๐คฃ๐คฃ and thus allowed the king to view her in a different light. All opinions welcomed but this is just my personal take on it and extremely happy for mr queenโs success ๐๐
