Korean Drama '' Missing Crown Prince '' is a historical melodrama.

The start and the finale of the drama were light and more like a romantic comedy, with a light mood and emphasis on the comedy part.

The drama got a one-eighty change after those first episodes, with the story getting darker and focusing on the political drama and the politics of the palace. There was a lot of action then and a lot of twists. That is also when the romance got a secondary role in the plot.

Finally, the performances were all great by every actor and actress in the cast, who all did a good job.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

Asusual you did a great job Junmyeonaa The way you grasp the character and lives in it proves your commitment. Ofcourse your visual slayed the screen and We would like to see Actor Suho more. The way you reflected the character Yi Geon and lived in it made us to think the original character is you and it's your story TBH. Keep on going and show your acting skills more often Junmyeonaa and not to forget Love You More Gradually!!! The ost is just awesome and your voice is just so soothing and cozy;Please continue with OST's too cause You're singer Suho to us in first place 😉. We always support you Suho. Lots of love 💕.

Hong Ye-ji plays plays Choi Myung-yoon who is the daughter of the chief Physician for the King in this Joseon era comedy drama. With the usual scheming with these period dramas the Crown Prince Yi Geon (Suho) is kidnapped by her father and she believes he is a scholar and the story then develops with all the plotting of the inner court vying for power. The story is quite entertaining because even though I did not agree with the actions of some of the baddies they actually had a back story where you could sympathise with the reasons they did what they did. Even though it is billed as a romantic comedy only the first few episodes and the end of the final episode had light moments with the majority of time taken up with a serious plot and counter plot. The acting was good with a believable romance but I deducted a point as this show had the most annoying character who seemed to change his mind every episode and was just the writers being lazy and using him to drive the plot.

I started watching this drama with no expectations, and then got hooked with Suho's gentle face and sweet nature. Omg, I do hope he makes more movies and dramas as I am now a big fan.

The FC opposite him - Ye Ji {?} was a tough cookie who stood no nonsense from men and was ready to fight and protect the weak. But she turns to mush when she meets her future husband to be, not knowing he was the Crown Prince. I wish she had been selected for Hwarang. Better actress.

The romance blooms with these two and they are soon entangled with the evil plans of the Royal Physician, Queen Dowager and the Left Councillor - who all try to wrest for power to make changes which would benefit them and their clans politically.

Loved the cast and as mentioned, I hope there will be more from Suho. Did not know him till I watched this drama. Am now a fan of his singing as well. He is from group EXO. He also sang the OST for Missing Crown Prince - Love you more gradually.

My fav song for the month.

The drama's off to a great start, though we're only two episodes in. You can already feel the momentum building, making it easy to get hooked on the unfolding events. I've already started formulating theories about the storyline and what might happen next. The actors, while playing somewhat stereotypical roles, manage to infuse their performances with a unique charm that really makes them stand out. I was particularly surprised by Suho's acting. If I hadn't known he was an idol first, I might have assumed his primary career was in acting. He brings a natural, comical touch to his character, Yi Geon, and his chemistry with the rest of the cast is surprisingly good too. I'm particularly looking forward to more scenes with the lead actress.

However, I hope the show doesn't pivot entirely towards romance and keeps its focus on the political issues it's begun to explore. As much as I'm enjoying the development of the plot and characters, the wait between episodes is almost unbearable. I generally prefer binge-watching, especially when it comes to historical dramas, but this series is promising enough that I'm willing to follow it week by week. It's just that the slow burn and anticipation of waiting for each new episode can be really tough.
