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.

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.

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.

One of the weakest Korean historical dramas I've ever watched: A ruthless court where everyone kills, imprisons, and tortures anyone they want, giving them rewards or ranks for no reason, the is no rule no standard !!

A queen mother who secretly meets with her lover and plots the death of a prince who has learned her secret !

A king who has no royal presence or dignity other than shouting, even at the first place, choosing him acting as a king is a bad choice because his appearance and acting skills lack the grandeur and charisma of a someone who rules a vast territory; a court physician who, despite being a doctor from the beginning, easily massacres 3 professional court assassins who have been trained in military techniques in his first years working in court; the brother of the heir to the throne, who acts extremely weak his role; a prince who shows no special ability to be a prince until the last 20 minutes of the last episode of the drama .... and if I were to write about the flaws in the story of this series again, it would take a whole notebook.

The plot was so stupid, unrealistic, and full of shortcomings that I subconsciously hated all of its characters except for the leading actress Hon Ye Ji.

I give this drama a 6 out of 10 and I don't recommend it to others.

I am currently engrossed in a captivating television series that has captivated my attention. The characters are exceptionally well-developed, and the narrative is skillfully crafted. It possesses a unique ability to gently draw viewers into its world, rather than merely capturing their attention. I eagerly anticipate each new episode. Thank you for creating such compelling and immersive television. #EngagingContent #ImmersiveStorytelling #TVSeriesAppreciation #obsessed #drama #romcom #love #intriguing #periodkdrama AGAIN A MUST WATCH! #rewatch #fantasy #nospoilers Excellence Excellence Excellence.

I truly want to watch this drama because of Suho, only to find out that this drama is worth watching. As an EXO-L, I'm heartbroken to see that they beat you. And for the female lead; you both have chemistry for me, even though I feel jealous of how she can easily touch and hit you. Also, your stare in episode 2, my gosh, you make me so jealous. Hope you're doing well. Happy anniversary! I watched the live and saw how you're feeling better. It's only the second day since the drama release, but you had to perform. Anyways, more shows and events for you and members this year and in the future. Lovelots from your fan. By the way, I can't promise to watch on time, but I will finish this drama. Episode 2 left me hanging for days. Ahhh, this feeling makes me want to scream. Your character is superb to me because of your emotional changes; I hope it ends well and you don't get killed. I love the characters. I think the guy who drinks with the female lead was the guy in your last series, 'Behind Your Touch.' is he right? Looking forward to more superb acting from you and the whole cast."

Spin off to the popular story "Bossam: Steal the Fate", the story is another political historical fiction cooking through palace dramas.

The opening of any drama plays a significant role in drawing the attention of the audience. In this story, the drama opens at a slow pace. The introduction of important characters was not surprising but cliche. The scene opens through a night, with robed people carefully walking through the palace gate. The director tried to use darkness to intensify the schemes being plotted behind those thick walls. It took a while to shape the story and establish the main aspect. The Queen's mother, her immediate hands, and constant plots - all-star players of this drama remained powerless throughout.

There are many historical fiction which have been stealing the hearts of audiences even after many years of release. Call it Scarlett Heart Ryeo or Empress KI- these dramas intrigued audiences through the well-laid plot. This is where The Missing Crown Prince lacked. It failed to generate interest among viewers.

Suho in the titular role tries his best to deliver a vivacious prince who is cheerful and trying his best to survive through the thick and thins of a gruesome palace. His chemistry with leading lady Hong Ye Ji lacks the spice due to the narrowness of the plot. The huge holes in the beginning made the story bland.

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.

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😭

SUHO's performance in Missing Crown Prince is a revelation. As a longtime fan, I was amazed by how effortlessly Junmyeon stepped into the role of a royal. His delivery, poise, and emotional depth truly brought the character to life. Every scene showed a side of him that fans haven't seen before. It was regal, intense, yet vulnerable. He commanded the screen with confidence and sincerity, proving his growth as an actor. A must-watch for fans of historical dramas and SUHO alike! I hope there will be more drama like this, or even other genres, different time period for Junmyeon because he works well in his acting, colleagues, and overall production.

I gave it 5/10 for now . There's not much i can say since there's only 2 ep out but i like it . If you like cheesy corny rom com dramas then this is for you. I like the plot and whats its leading up to . It could just be me tho but i had to rewatch some scenes because i would be lost . The main/side actors/actress are pretty good and some are really known in the industry . Tho the female main lead who im sure is a good actress but in this drama majority of her scenes are corny but watchable ? Chemistry between the main leads , i would say there's none right now . Just some cheesy lines exchanged between each other but if you consider that chemistry then yeah there's "chemistry". I'll definitely stay tuned because i liked that little plot twist that happened in ep.2 and i'm curious what will happen.

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.

As an EXO-L I was excited to see Suho as the main actor in a K-drama. After watching it, I'm not sure why I was excited. He lacked any emotion and his acting is stoic or even robotic. As typical in some of these dramas the "older" actors were much better. The leading lady was such a joke, her crying scenes were the fakest yet. Between her and Suho there was no chemistry. The grand prince had more acting chops but even he paled in comparison to the king, queen dowager, and head physician. Overall I only finished watching this series to say I did and to see it to the end. Each week I forgot it was even on and was happy to watch anything else. A waste of time and I'm super disappointed. It's a good storyline, just poorly acted by the leads.

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 💕.

I am not a fan of historical dramas, but I love how well-written this drama is. They really cast the right artists because they truly brought their characters to life. The emotions are rare and perfectly acted, and the show never felt boring, in my opinion. I love how the lead actors really connect with each other; their chemistry is so natural. This drama also made me appreciate Suho's versatility even more. He truly fits the role of the crown prince - this drama was really meant for him. I also really appreciated that the ending was unexpected and different from what you'd usually expect. Overall, I really enjoyed.

This is a good historical drama that talks about the struggles of the Crown Prince in life and love.

Trying to change their destiny, the Crown Prince and Lady love blossoms.

Together, they conquers any hurdles and choose to live and love

Plot: Addicting Actors/Actress: You can emphatize with them Visuals: Daebak 100%

P. S. This is the 1st historical drama of SUHO. The writer based Crown Prince Geon personality to SUHO. Thus, he protrayed the role amazingly like he was indeed the Crown Prince Geon. His visuals is insane, all is costume really look great on him then acting is on point and the emotion is there.
