Queen Woo

Most of the action scene/war with horses are poorly done. Horses are not in good shape, most of the action are the same repeatedly done throughout every action scenes... If you cannot master war or horse fight scenes don't do it, waist of time to develop the plot really. I think they could have done it more simple with less action and be still spectacular, clearly trying to do like any big American series/ production without the skills. The plot lack more character development.. Also I noticed a lot of criticism about the costume not accurate. I think they were trying to show the characters in a dark way with some sex scenes, but it might too much for the "genre"

Why does she have only one expression? Also she looks and sounds like a literal child in those costumes. It seems like the crown/headdress will fall over and cover her entire face at any moment lol. The writing was terrible as well. The scenes look disjointed and I am no prude with R rated scenes but there should be a reason for their existence in the series. It felt too contrived, like trying to generate publicity though controversy in a somewhat conservative country using those scenes. Some of the night scenes were a hard watch, couldnt tell whats going on. I think the King actor carried the drama for me and some of the other actors did pretty good job as well.

I'm suprised about the emotional backlashes here! I believe the * scenes were important to emphasize how women were treated in her journey of uprising which gave it even more strength when she eventually took her Throne! And I was glad that they stopped just before the war! Because the whole shows focus of the show is on the uprising of the queen and its irrelevant what happened in the war! It ended exactly on the point were people stood behind her to save and protect their kingdom: Her raising to the throne! That was the main point of the whole series! And I'm suprised how Imdb is rating this so low!

If you are someone who appreciated shows like GOT im sure you will like this korean style GOT type of drama. This show gives a dark eery vibe with alot of s3x and nudity. Big applause to Jeon Jongseo, lee soo hyuk and ji changwook for pulling it off the way they did. Amazing screenplay and cinematography and plot. It's really sad to see people give such low ratings to this masterpiece. As a seasoned historical drama watcher this is quite literally one of the best historical kdrama i've watched. Just because ur not into this specific genre does not mean this is a bad show. It simply means u have no taste. The way it ended I'm guessing there's gonna be a season 2. Cant wait for season 2. Hopefully it wont get canceled.
