El rey: Eterno monarca

The plot progresses slowly, so do not expect a lot thrill happening right away. Nonetheless, everything else is all perfectly balanced - the aesthetics, soundtracks, and of course actors! Lee Min Ho, as always, is unmatched. The drama has perfectly blended comedy, thriller, romance, and suspense of it all. So far, I have watched 8 episodes and the story is still unfolding itself. I believe the last 8 episodes will be packed with the gist of the overall plot.

With Lee Minho since first noticing him in 2010 with Boys Over Flowers. Researching him got me into over 10 years of being SHINee fan but I didn't watch another drama of LMH. Then I recently watched TKEM. I couldn't stop watching and finished within 2 days. Who doesn't love a fairy tale...add a fantasy element and the perfect King plus bodyguard and it's magic. Now I'm watching every drama and movie the inimitable LMH has been casted and all are so great. He's so magnetic. Can't wait til Pachinko and more dramas with Hallyu King Lee Minho.

Eun soon-Kim is fast becoming my favorite #KDrama writer. I loved watching the #Goblin series and decide to give this show a watch and it did not disappoint!! It's was engaging and so interesting to watch. I loved the entire cast but especially Lee Min Ho and Kim Go Eun. Brilliant on screen magic between the two, and I loved how fiesty the Lieutenant is!! Wonderful to see strong women roles on screen. It's a touching love story and it's supported ably by a very interesting plot. Beautiful production and soundtrack. Very memorable. It's a must see.

Ok, the first 3 episode, I was kind of disappointed. I thought there's a lot a slow motion and a bit too slow, I almost fall asleep watching it. But after watching the 4the episode, I'm hook. I can't wait to watch the next one. I am excited about it and I can't wait to see more of Lee min Ho and see where the story go!

A story of parallel Korea's where one is a republic and one is a monarchy. It is cleverly done with a storyline which you need to pay attention too as events in one world affect the other. It is very well acted with some outstanding performances from lesser characters as well as the main cast. The action, humour, romance elements are well balanced and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
