"The King's Affection" is a historical romance drama that managed to win my affection. I came to admire and adore the main-characters and the supporting characters. The first two episodes were really strong and the latter 10 episodes managed to keep my interest going but i had to put it on-hold after ep 14 because things were really dragging after that and the writing was nowhere superior to how it was in the earlier episodes. But i picked it up again after a few months and finished the last episodes on Netflix. It has all the tropes i love but didn`t manage to make a perfect story out of it but it was good anyway. Yeon Seon is a admirable heroine who was a victim in this whole story that get forced to take on her dead twin-brothers throne. I just adore her two servants who always stood by her side and protected her. Then we have the absolutely fearless but vulnerable hero Jung who stood for what is right. He couldn`t accept nor condone what his father had done and what he stands for. It really took a toll on him mentally while growing up but he still stayed strong in his beliefs and managed to grow up into such a great man- deserving of our beloved heroine Yeon Seon. I love how he dearly comes to love her while still thinking she is a Male Prince. He loved her when he was a boy and he falls in love with her again as a man. I rooted for Jung and Yeon Seon with all my heart, wishing their happy ever after.
