Premiere Watch: The Scandal of Chunhwa

by missvictrix

Time slot: Thursdays (2 episodes per week)
Broadcaster: TVING
Genre: Sageuk, romance
Episode count: 10
Global streamer: TBA

Reasons to watch: If you like your sageuk with a side of spice, you’re in luck with TVING’s latest. Go Ara plays our eponymous princess who has quite the reputation, thanks to her likeness being used in a popular erotic novel of the time. Whether this is accurate or not remains to be seen, but the drama follows her head-strong hunt for a husband that she truly wants to marry for love. She’ll have to choose between Chani and Jang Ryul, so good luck with that.

TL;DR: TVING comes in with another 19-rated sageuk

This looks fun, so hopefully it is just that fun. 10 eps is quick.

Go Ara and Chang Ryul's Cosmopolitan Korea shoot was gorgeous. Choosing between Chani and Chang Ryul is an easy choice.

If I adapt my expectations since the first news about this drama, it could be fun.

Looks like erotic novels in sageuks is the new black. 😂

I haven't been watching any kdramas lately (having dropped both The Tale of Lady Ok and When the Stars Gossip), but I have been looking forward to this one. Hopefully, I'll be able to watch it somewhere.

Where can this be watched in the US? I can’t find it anywhere.

So far, I have checked Netflix, Viki, Kocowa, Plex, Pluto and Prime and come up with nothing.

I found Episode 1, with English subtitles, on the French video sharing website DailyMotion (which is owned by CANAL+) but it is not clear to me that this is a 'legal' sharing of the video even if the site is a legitimate one.
