The Queen 'Woo' (2024)

very interesting series

I loved it, the historical dramas are exceptional, they bring a lot of action, intrigue, love, sex, violence, betrayal, wars and show what life was like in the past and especially sexual life where there was no gender distinction but there was a distinction in social classes, but not , in sex. This type of situation occurs in all ancient civilizations, whether European, Asian, Indian, etc. This drama meets the expectations of viewers who like the unvarnished real story of what life was like before the religions that painted our lives in rosy colors and also full of prejudices existed and that still exist today. I congratulate the team of Actors, Production, Costume Design, Art, Location, Post Production, Scenography and other technicians who participated. Special mention for Ji Chang Wook, a great actor, I've seen all his dramas and Empress Ki, another historical drama with his great acting.

It's like "Game of Thrones", but better

"Queen Woo" is a story about a woman named Woo Hui, she's the queen of a country named Gogoryeo and unexpectedly her husband Nam Mu dies and she has only one day to find another prince to marry or she's going to die.
Woo Hui quest is really amazing, it's so good what I wanted a prequel and a sequel, there's definitely enough content for that, especially about the relationship of Woo Hui and Nam Mu. They are a great couple and the drama only shows flashbacks of that, just to make us understand how Woo Hui got where she is now. Speaking of her, what a great character. She's a woman who knows what she wants and goes for it. I loved it how she chose the fourth prince because he's easy to manipulate, he's the king only in name and she's the one who calls the shots. HAHA'
Jeon Jong Seo is a badass actress. I loved her work in "Bargain" and "Money Heist" <3

It's a shame that Ji Chang Wook is only at the first episode and in small flashbacks, Nam Mu is a very interesting character and I wanted to see more of him.

There is a lot of violent scenes, a lot of cruelty specially in Lee Soo Hyuk's character, the third prince. His acting is really impressive, he really became that person and to be able to see Lee Soo Hyuk and Song Jae Rim acting together, is like a dream coming true.

Eul Pa So is a mystery to me, I can't actually say that he's a traitor because he wanted to change Gogoryeo, the country needed to change and he helped Woo Hui... and I don't think it's only me who though that Pa So loved Woo Hui, the scene that he gave her the head band clearly showed that.

This drama is unlike anything I've ever watched in the kdramas universe. It goes beyond all the barriers and limits that South Korea normally imposes and it seems like it doesn't even care about it.
It's not scared of showing passionate scenes, to play with eroticism and does so in a way that does not become vulgar. Yes, there is a lot of moments like this, but I think it works with the ambiance that the drama sets, it's to show a place with people craving desire and power.
