I love both actors! So I'm happy with the pairing! 😍

I hope the writer won't add useless character and a cruel and stupid separation like in Clean With Passion, because the psy brought nothing to story except no professional behavior and she made the FL very cruel with the way she broke up without a real reason.

Yay Ro-woon!!! 😍 I'm so glad you accepted it!!! I will be watching for sure. As for Park Eun-bin, I don't know much about her as an actress (just saw her as a child actress at some dramas, but it did not leave a long-lasting impression), so I don't know what to expect.

As for this saguek romance. I read the manhwa, and I felt it very melodramatic. I did not even like the ending that much. I hope they change the story a bit, if not, then I will only watch Ro-woon's scenes (the rest I will fast-forward).

Actually, I just read Ro-woon's character synopsis and it seems they changed the story of the ML from the manhwa. Okay, an improvement.

I've missed these two so much! (Even though it's only been a week since I saw Rowoon 😅)

I'm disgustingly happy about this 😂

*tries and fails to not let expectations rise*

idk why, but i love this pairing so much. fingers crossed for a truly great forbidden romance.

Another writer that I do not trust but It's good to see Park Eun-bin in a sageuk. She's one of those child actors who grew up on this genre, playing different roles from a dead poor commoner to royal princess and queen.
It'll take me a long time or maybe never to get used to the idea that men in funny hats are going to call her "Jeonha" in this drama.

I haven't seen Kim Ro-woon in a sageuk or anything before so I hope to be a fan at first sageuk like Woo Do-hwan. ( I miss you Unbreakable Sword).

I will try for Park Eun Bin, I care very little about the rest.

Sounds like my kind of period drama. I’m always wanting new romantic imaginations in pretty costumes. And these two I can totally revel in the pretty while enjoying their acting!

I am not much a sageuk fan, in general, because I am always afraid they will die... but this one I could try.
Clean with passion now was not good to my taste, but...
Let's give this writer another chance. At least is not the writer from Do do sol sol la la sol🙄

I really don't like the plot of the drama but the leads are amazing so idk. Rowoon is really handsome, that's all.

PEB has a very sweet smile.

Perfect match ! I did not like his last pairing . There was no chemistry !They both great :)

I like this pairing and I'm fine with the PD but worry about the writer. Clean with passion is okay at the beginning but near the end *sigh..

Can't wait for their chemistry on screen and off screen (Park Eun Bin and Rowoon so playful with their co-star) and Rowoon with beautiful hanbok, bring it on!

I like the leads, I like the premise and I it seems there will be no end to sageuks this years *sighs*.

At first I began wondering if the manga was actually the Japanese manga Ooku, which is about the shogunate through the alternative history when a deadly plague kills exclusively male, and how the country developed as a result.

And when I read it and watched the Japanese live-action adaptation, I kept thinking that it would be an interesting SKorean remake, as from my understanding, Joseon was very gender-segregated and increasingly misogynistic. More than anything, I am curious how a female version of the Korean dragon robes would look like.

Also, to bring in my never-ending love for Queen For Seven Days, that drama’s female lead should totally have some major role then, either as the antagonist or the female lead.

At any rate, I am excited to see this adaptation, almost want to check out the original format. Hope it will be good!

This is a big fat maybe for me as I love both of these leads. But why a "secret king" who is really a woman? Why not do a Pre-Joseon Sageuk and go back to Silla- which actually had not one but 3 ruling female monarchs (all of them quite capable) in its history?

I have always seen comments about Eun Bin resembling J-Hope. Maybe the production team can consider casting him as her twin brother here lol. Otherwise, I think they are probably going with a dual role just like in "You're Beautiful".
