Queen 'Woo

Here waiting patiently for part 2. This is the best historical kdrama i've watched in a while. Amazing screen play/cinematography. The actors did amazing especially the female lead. And lee soo hyuk?? I knew he would never disappoint. I think everyone who's complaining about the Nudity and s3x scenes (possibly kids) are people who are just not used to this kind of genre. Cause this is far from your average historical kdrama. If you are someone who's bothered by that type of scenes than this ain't for you. I personally find this show very thrilling. It definitely deserves a watch. Wishing it would have more episodes than 8.

I do not consider this serie a classical kdrama but a very interesting historical series.

I found it realistic and intense. I know there were several issue about costumes and other historical matters but as an ignorant foreign I can't appreciate the accuracy.

Great performances indeed by all the cast. The action scenes are very well made, they give the right level of suspance. There is violence, cruelty and sex as there were in that historical era. I appreciate such an ending, it gives the opportunity to study what happened to discover a piece of history that we don't know. It deserves more visibility.

I thought the drama will end at episode 8.....arhhhhh.... There is season 2!

Have been a thrilling show glued to watch the unfolding of 24 hours event. Very captivated!

Get a pop corn and wine for 4 episodes one go!

Parental guidance needed for certain gory scenes and sexual scenes. Nudity expected. It will be great with English subtitle as a foreigner watching this can be challenging.

Loved the scenes of autumn leaves. The acting is pretty professionally done and some look really emotional.

The having to flash back every episodes might be a little confusing if you do not watch closely. Enjoy!

This review is for part 1 only. This is not a usual pink colour drama, that most the viewers expecting. I appreciate the bravery of the director, crew and whole cast for showcasing the reality of the historical era. The story building is great and the performance of the actors are really on next level. Directing, Acting, Screen writing, plot and even the BGM are so cool. The dialogues are another thing to focus bcz they hv deep and beautiful meanings. This drama include nudity and violence. If it is not your type you should ignore. The most of the bad ratings for the nudity, the drama is perfect.

Korean Drama '' Queen Woo '' is a historical drama with a focus on the political scene of the time.

The drama has a strong female lead whom we see bloom into a leader despite her gender and those against her. Her fight to establish herself was interesting to follow, as she is canning and understands how to masterfully manipulate the palace politics. The more tender storyline with her and her husband gave her another dimension to her character.

However, the ending was anticlimactic, with the upcoming final battle never coming and the season-ending kind of open, with an unluckily second season on the horizon.

Still, the performances were great and the cinematography was impressive.

So, overall, seven out of ten.
