so the story was brilliant but the problem came with the execution. i only watched it because of all the buzz but also coz i love kim soo hyun, he stole my heart from dream high. this show could have been shrunk to 16 episodes. the first 5 episodes were dragging and a lil boring for me i was clenching my teeth tryin to get thru to the end, i dozed a couple of times mostly because of the clan and elders talkin too much. it got better and interesting when the grown up generation came to screen around ep 7. the child actors were great esp little minhwa. the younger queens brother was soo hot and i dint like the old bro, he just dint have the same aura. i loved the scenes with the shaman and their visions. jung il did a good job and woon with his long hair and fighting scenes. young king (yeo jin goo)did a good job creating that character but older king was just the best for me. the kings eunuch was so freakn funny coz he would always tell him to stop looking at him and face the wall. the king also in the moments with han ga in was cute and romantic esp the very last section, episode 20 was seriously unnecessary felt like deleted scenes and alternate endings were added to fill up but we were satisfied with it coz the king got alil freaky. i couldnt give it a 10 or 9 coz of all the tech issues but kim soo hyun made it worth while.

Watched for the child roles only

TBH I only watched the first few episodes where the child counterpart of the leads were featured. And I'm not sure I'd be able to watch it completely in my lifetime. Anyway, from the few episodes I've seen, it's obvious that KYJ and YJG are brilliant actors. I even enjoyed the rivalry bet KYJ and KSH characters. This is maybe the 2nd historical kdrama I've watched so I was still a rookie watcher back then.

Emotivo drama histórico

He visto este drama mientras espero los nuevos capítulos de Mr. Queen, hacía tiempo que no me animaba con un drama histórico, pues después de ver The untamed, el listón me había quedado muy alto, jajajja. Mr. Queen fue el drama que me animó a volver con el género histórico, y ha valido muchísimo la pena. Estoy muy contenta de haber visto "The moon that embraces the sun" y además legalmente en Netflix (aunque con subtítulos en inglés), porque este maravilloso cuento merece lo mejor. Todo me ha parecido redondo, los malvados, la ambientación, la música y como no una historia de amor que emociona y te hace sacar todas las lágrimas! Los actores son tan buenos!!! Tanto los actores juveniles como los adultos están espectaculares, transmiten tan bien sus emociones que éstas traspasan la pantalla y te dejan conmovido el corazón. La recomiendo muchísimo!!!!!!! A destacar que después de tantos sufrimientos el final es tal como lo queremos los románticos empedernidos, un cálido y glorioso final en donde el amor triunfa y todos reciben lo que merecen!!!

INI ADALAH DRAMA YANG PATUT DILIHAT SEMUA ORG KRN SGT SERU BGT!!
Sumpah telat bgt baru nonton drama ini. keren bgt gila parah alurnya sangat rapi dan seru bgt buat d tonton. Bahkan aktor/aktris yg memerankan masa kecil para tokoh utama pun sangat keren dan mendalami bgt aktingnya. untuk akting tokoh utamanya gk perlu diragukan lagi sii karna memang bagus banget. Dijamin bakal seru nonton ini.

Sesungguhnya aku adalah tipe yang tidak suka drama kerajaan. tp akhir" ini mulai mencoba nonton drama kerajaan yang mengandung unsur fantasi. ini salah satunya, meskipun fantasinya masi dalam batas wajar dan bisa diterima nalar kita. Romancenya amat sangat ditonjolkan karna memang itu adalah topik utamanya. lalu keseruan ditambah dari segi politik kerjaan. poltiknya tidak terlalu rumit, malah justru makin menarik dgn adanya masalah politik ini. Emosi dan pikiran kalian bakal diporak-porandakan oleh ceitanya, bahkan aku yang biasanya suka nangis pun sampai gk bsa nangis saking campur aduknya.

Untuk pesan yang bisa diambil sangat tersirat. ostnya tidak semuanya berkesan, krn memang yang paling sering terdengar adalah lagunya lyn - back in time
