My take on Kingdom of the Winds… life of Jumong's grandson, Moo Hyul

Compared to the greatness that is Jumong… I would say this series is somewhat lacking. It's by no means as epic as Jumong. However, I genuinely enjoyed it, so much so, that I have seen it more than four times already (lol) Blame it on quarantine and a whole lot of free time.

I don’t know why I keep coming back to Kingdom of the Winds. Maybe because Song Gook played the lead (I think he’s so amazing in his Historical roles) Perhaps it’s purely the romance between Mu Hyul and Princess Yeon, who had such tender gaze and weak appearance. Oh gosh! I have such affection for these feeble female characters that our main leads always fall in love with. I mean, I also loved Lady Ye So Ya.

Anyways… Kingdom of the Winds is more deeply romance base compared to Jumong. Song Gook also express himself more... an issue I had whenever I watch Jumong. I hated that he didn’t talk enough.

I know I keep comparing but I can’t help it since the stories are connected! Hahahaha

I don’t know about anyone else, but I found the music in this series incredible! I am NEVER tired of listening to it. And I listen to it a lot! Emphasis on “A LOT”. If you ever get the chance—check it out on YouTube.

I gave the acting a full 10 because Song Gook NEVER NOT deliver in these roles.

>> Do Jin is like every other pitiful second lead who find themselves in love with Fl, but instead of confessing—they stay quiet until ML comes along and steal Fl. Smh! Then they throw tantrum and reek jealousy.


>> Ma Ro is that loyal bestfriend everybody such have in their life.


>> Physically and mentally strong. Steady eyes. Firm character. Fight like a monster. The young man who played Jumong's son in Jumong, grew on me. So much so, that I wished he could have played Yuri in this series because honestly, I do not find the man who played Yuri compatible for the role.


>> I enjoy Ma Hwang character. He does play a lot of support role but he never not shine them.
