The Crown Prince Has Disappeared

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.

HAVE YOU SEEN Ep7,8...the love,care,respect Geon and Myungyoon show for each other. What do we call it charector development?! The queen is on fire. Disturbing past of queen Dowager. Grand prince struggle. I am falling in love with every charector. Acting 100% on point. This drama is combination of revenge,thriller, comedy,love,angst what not.

Geon, Myungyoon, Geon's bodyguard and Myungyoon's servant are soo fun. I really liked scenes with 4 of them together. Suho and Hong yeji I am falling for you both. You are amazing.

Story is getting interesting with each episode.

Not rushed or no lag, its going on good pace.

I like this drama so far and can't wait for next episodes. Preview of Ep9 is already breaking my heart😭

It's my first historical drama and so far, i found it interesting. Every one is doing good with their characters. Suho and Hong Ye Ji are funny and adorable. I think they portrayed their characters so well. I love the facial expressions of Suho, his eyes speak a thousand words. He is so deep, considering that this is his first historical drama. The queen & the royal physician are really good actors. I am impressed with their acting as villains. They are veterans, so they are really good. Kim Min Kyu is also doing good. Hong Ye Ji improved as compared to her prev drama. The drama is impressive.

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.

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.
