Queen: Love And War (2019)

cool

Kang Eun Bo est une femme en mission. Lorsque sa sœur jumelle est assassinée, elle jure de retrouver le meurtrier et de le traduire en justice. Mais à l'époque ultraconservatrice de la dynastie Joseon (1392-1910), la seule femme ayant le pouvoir d'ordonner une chasse à l'homme contre un meurtrier est la reine. Kang Eun Bo décide donc de remporter le titre royal tant convoité afin de pouvoir un jour venger la mort de sa sœur. Mais pour ce faire, elle doit d’abord gagner le cœur du roi Joseon Lee Kyung. Lee Kyung a grandi à une époque de grands troubles politiques et s’intéresse moins aux questions de cœur – et se préoccupe davantage d’apporter la paix dans le royaume. Kang Eun Bo découvre bientôt que gagner les faveurs du roi ne sera pas facile ; la cour royale est également inondée de belles jeunes femmes, dont beaucoup espèrent épouser le roi. Mais lorsque le roi réalise soudain qu'il reconnaît Kang Eun Bo dans un rêve, les deux commencent à nouer un lien improbable. Kang Eun Bo trouvera-t-elle un jour l'assassin de son jumeau ? Et l’amour pourrait-il fleurir entre le streetwise Kang Eun Bo et le roi idéaliste ? (Source : Viki) Modifier la traduction

MUST WATCH

Okay, First of all I won’t say anything about the story for I might spoil you, All I can say is that this series is a must watch, Because this series proves that LOVE IS ABOVE EVERYTHING, that you will do EVERYTHING for the person that you love, To be honest.....I’m very meticulous when it comes to watching movies or series, I want to watch something that will both educate me and satisfy my soul.... and this series definetly did that, It tells you that you should never let the person you love be harmed, That you should always take care and trust your loved ones and it also tells us THAT WE SHOULD’NT LET OUR STATE OF LIVING DECIDE WHO TO BE FRIENDS WITH, EVEN IF SHE’S YOUR MAID BECAUSE LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP IS MUCH BETTER THAN POWER....I hope my review will help you

Queen: War of Love

The drama felt like it was held together with duct tape. There was this missing spark to make the twins plot work. How are we supposed to buy into this twin dynamic when there's no connection?Somehow, the dead twin had a better chemistry and her replacement twin never worked despite being the same actress. The romance as well suffered because of that, incompatible by design. Out of all the ideas that can be spun from a twins plot, they kept it very simple while doing the bare minimum to fill the episodes. Which also resulted in long draggy uneventful events. On another note, out of all of Jin Se Yeon historical roles, this is her weakest performance yet.

Really good but something felt missing

Probably my favourite Korean drama genre is sageuk, mostly because 95% of what I watched is of a very high quality. This one is very good and is innovative. The first episode was a bit confusing but once you get familiar with the characters and the story, the show is getting on the right track. I also thought the last episodes were a bit dragged, the most interesting part for me was the queen's selection and the king's prophetic dreams. Maybe if there were less episodes, it would've been more intriguing. The ending was so satisfying.

The acting was very good, props to Lee Jae Yong, he always plays this kind of characters and he does it so well!

The OST was pretty; it reminded a lot of the The Princess's Man OST!

I wouldn't rewatch it that much; not enough cliffhangers to make it more exciting. But still, very worth watching.

PERIOD DRAMA OF THE YEAR menurut ku,

Awal niat nonton ini karena ada liat cuplikan nya di instagram, di cuplikannya tentang ujian2 yang harus dilalui untuk menjadi Ratu (Istri Raja).. Makanya jadi penasaran, karena biasa kalo nonton drama historical, cuma tau kalo ada Queen sama Consort aja. Temen group juga pada bahas drama ini. Akhirnya mulai nonton. Awal nonton langsung tertarik sih, karena agak berbeda dari drama biasanya, walaupun tetep aja ada penghianat,dll. Buru2 marathon nonton, eh tau taunya waktu itu belom tamat. Jadi nonton nya ada jeda nya (kegantung). Huhuuu ;( Tapi uda kelar nonton kok.

Mantap deh pokokny, Pengen ada episode tambahan. 16 eps doang kayak ga cukup gitu. Untuk ending uda bagus sih, tapi kalo bisa ditambahin beberapa scene lagi, kan jadi lebih bagus dan meyakinkan. HAHAHA

Dan lagi, Aktor nya GANTENG donggg, aktris nya juga CANTIK banget! jadi makin semangat nonton. LOL

Overall bagus, POLL!!! cuma kurang suka di music nya aja, terlalu melow, sedih banget dengernya. *ku bukan tipe org yg suka denger lagu melow, tergantung mood sih.

Previsível - "Predictable"

Uma mocinha principal que parece forte mais não é, está sempre sendo perseguida ou injustiçada , todos conspiram contra ela mas não se preocupe temos o mocinho principal que é um rei literalmente falando que está sempre ao seu lado cuidando dela , quando não é ele tem o segundo protagonista maslculino que está sempre lá para salva-la.

Temos também muitas cospirações e intrigas para prejudicar o reinado do mocinho porém fica cansativo depois de um tempo e bem previsível. Com certeza você já viu muitos enredos parecidos por aí, então nada aqui é novo e o show se torna arrastado por isso entre outros motivos.

Se você está procurando algo para passar seu tempo sem muitas expectativas então recomendo esse drama para você.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A main girl who seems strong but is not, is always being persecuted or wronged, everyone conspires against her but don't worry we have the main guy who is a king literally speaking who is always by her side taking care of her, when he is not he has the second male protagonist who is always there to save her.

We also have a lot of conspiracies and intrigues to undermine the reign of the good guy, but it gets tiring after a while and very predictable. Surely you've seen many similar plots out there, so nothing here is new and the show becomes dragged by that among other reasons.

If you are looking for something to spend your time without too many expectations then I recommend this drama to you.

This is one of my binge watched dramas after being "locked down" because of COVID 19. Binge watching a 16 episode drama is basically watching a drawn out movie that is told in slow motion. As a background I am sharing this information so you understand my bias and critique. During this period I have binged two Chinese historical dramas (Ming Dynasty and Serenade of Joy) both with King/Emperor - Queen/concubine issues.

It took less than 2 days to blow through this drama and the only thing I felt was good actress, good actor, poor portrayal of king, poorer portrayal of concubines and queen. The costumes were colorful -- an A+. You could write a summary of this drama in less than 2 paragraphs because of the simplicity of story telling. After trying to research whether this was a real Joseon King or a made up one for dramaland purposes -- I could only come to the conclusion that he was a made up King. So this story was purely a work of fiction.

There is a total lack of mature telling of a story. I felt I should have been in 5th grade watching this drama as opposed to being an adult. Other than a few steamy kisses, the lack of heartfelt romance -- which should have been the bases of this drama seemed "starved." The court officials seemed more powerful than the king and when the king finally decided to take power his actions were always "minimal". The description that calls him a peaceful king is really a description of ineptness e.g. woman over nation sacrifices and reduced punishments for gross acts of treason.

The question is always -- to watch or not to watch? Well, if you just have nothing else to do and follow the careers of the actor and actress I would say definitely. Their performances were really commendable with the material given to them. As a fan of historical dramas I am still waiting for the quality of SIx Flying Dragons, Jumong, The Moon Embraces the Sun, Jewel in the Palace,. Sungkyundwon Scandal, Dong Yi -- I can go on and on because I love the period dramas. The quality continues to fade and I truly wish for the "good old days".

We love this..its worth watching this drama. 100percent rate for me.
Who is going to hit the bullet? the lead actress Eun-Bo? or the queen? hopefully the queen will just die. So the concubine will replace the position of the previous queen. So love will reign. I love oppah Kim Min-Kyu great acting and his eunuch and right hand persons. His adversaries also. All the casts are great and of course the director. This is between the love and authority, the greediness of the position. The principle of leader and authority. The decision making etc. A good leader takes responsibility for everyone’s performance as well as their own so on and so forth.

Fue el titulo con el que volví a ver doramas, había dejado un tiempo largo sin verlos y quizá no me cautivó en el primer episodio, pero soy siempre de darle oportunidad hasta el cuarto episodio.

Soy fanática de los doramas históricos y que en cierto modo lleven algo de fantasía pero este dorama aparte de todo eso, lleva una historia detrás con bastante mas peso que otros doramas históricos y con fantasía que he visto anteriormente, quizá habrá gente que diga que los hay mejores, claro, siempre se puede mejorar.

Me alegro de ver caras nuevas (al menos para mi) en los doramas, es cierto que muchas veces el mismo actor o actriz y en el mismo año está en distintos doramas, no está mal pero creo que es una buena oportunidad para los nuevos de darse a conocer al menos en este tipo de doramas. Quizá me equivoque y mucha gente ya haya visto a los dos actores principales en muchos otros lugares.

100% recomendado por mi parte.

The drama hooked me, I finished it in three days, I liked it but it didn't convinced me. Maybe because having watched a lot of historical dramas, I'm used to more deep and melodramatic stories.
I wanted to try this one after reading the summary.

It's a short drama, only 16 episodes long, and it mainly focused in the process of selection of the queen and the resolution of the cases in which Kang Eun Bo's family was involved.
It's adequate in terms of politic intrigues, nothing new, but poor in terms of palace and harem topics compare to other dramas.
The romance was so-so for me, they had their scenes, but I didn't felt the chemistry between the leads at all.

Lee Gyung (Male lead): his character was really weak for a king, which was really annoying, always being trampled down by others. I didn't like the actor's performance either, it wasn't natural.

Kang Eun Bo (Female lead): she's quite reserve and depends on others a lot. Don't expect a "Mulan" type of personality, she's more of a "damsel in distress" type.

My favourite side character was Wal. He was loyal, friendly and caring.

The music was beautiful and memorable, the song keeps playing on my mind.

The costumes and scenaries were eyecatching.

Rewatch value? No no, I won't watch it again.

I enjoyed the drama and it wasn't boring, I don't regret watching it but it didn't fascinated me.

This drama was so good, I enjoyed it. It had everything in one, love, revenge, hate, drama, politics, and most of all it had a happy ending. If you are looking for a happy ending drama that is also a historical drama this is the one. It wasn't that long either. I highly recommend. I also enjoyed the actors there were really good and they did such a good job. I love the king he is so cute and handsome. I wish they had a little bit more I the ending, but regardless it was a good drama. The plot was really good and it wasn't too sad like many other dramas. I think everyone involved in this drama did a good job.
