Kingdom: Ashin-jeon

Kingdom Ashin Of North is a brilliant spin off of critically acclaimed Kingdom series which tells the story of Ashin and the origins of the undead.

The story was great along with the lead cast and overall production of this special episode. From the very beginning till the end, there was no boredom whatsoever. A story of survival, betrayal and revenge, Ashin Of North serves a great plot that will eventually tie up with Kingdom storyline. Jun Ji Hyun was brilliant as Ashin.

The 3rd season will probably the ultimate showdown of humans vs the undead and I am waiting eagerly for it

My Rating : 9/10.

I was hoping for season 3 of this absolutely amazing Korean series. After seeing this kingdom special, I am even more looking forward. The story is simple but is well told, adding another dimension to the Kingdom universe. The story is dark and a nice introduction to Ashin - I think it is successful and gives a good insight into her upcoming role in Kingdom. Both the director and the writer as well as the entire production team have done a great job and promoted Korean film and television in the best way.

While waiting for the third season of "Kingdom," we were treated to this 2021 movie titled "Kingdom: Ashin-jeon" (aka "Kingdom: Ashin of the North").

And writer Eun-hee Kim definitely managed to fill in the gap here with brilliance and entertainment, because "Kingdom: Ashin of the North" definitely was up to par with the "Kingdom" series. So if you enjoyed the first two seasons of that series and find yourself waiting for season three, then I can warmly and strongly recommend that you sit down to watch "Kingdom: Ashin of the North".

"Kingdom: Ashin of the North" is sort of an origin story, and it definitely was an interesting and well-told one. So I was more than entertained by what director Seong-hun Kim delivered here.

Visually then "Kingdom: Ashin of the North" is as astounding as the "Kingdom" series, so you know what you are getting here. And there are some nice scenes with a deer and a tiger, which were quite good. Though, I feel that writer Eyn-hee Kim didn't really fully explore to its full contents.

"Kingdom: Ashin of the North" is entertaining from beginning to end, and you should certainly watch it if you have the chance.

My rating of "Kingdom: Ashin of the North" lands on a seven out of ten stars.

The story did deliver and was beautifully acted. Ashin was believable and it was touching. Story of revenge and huge plot twists . I am impressed with this . It has raised the bar for season 3 . Well done Netflix for not letting this one go..

I'm honestly surprised at the amount of people complaining that it's slow.

W le have seen so much action throughout the series we can't simply appreciate a spin off episode setting the tone for the newly introduced character. We can't bear 30 minutes without action or jump scares, okay.

Also surprised at the people who are confused about how the disease is spread before leaving reviews it's very clear. Watch it again, more closely...

Loved this episode as much as the season 1 & 2 and look forward to seeing what season 3 brings.
