Tbh, It is hard to write a review on this drama as it is beyond words. Couldn't express what I just saw. This is art, an acting masterclass confined in a two hour period. For a guy who watched over 200 korean movie, I must say, it is easy to cry as k-director have a knack to go through your sentiments. But here, I didn't roll a single tear, instead, I felt the pain, of both the king and the prince, their family. It was something new to me.
Yoo Ah In is really underrated imo.. he just handled the dramatic scenes with ease.. became a fan.. Kang Sang Ho, the veteran, is beyond words, definitely, in the top 10 actor of the world imo..
The bgms are also applaudable, blended well with the scenes. The cinematography is really memorable from frame to frame. Overall, a movie I would recommend.
