I was sorely disappointed by the ending. Hed answered that it was to serve Ha Sun loyally and die in the line of duty, and Moo-young gets his wish. So many relationships were built up during the tumultuous happenings just to do this :/. Please enlighten us. He holds his own well, but neither of them sees the archers who sneak around behind Ha Sun and fire two arrows into his back. A) Ha Seon gives up the throne. The king's every move and poop was recorded so it would be very difficult to make a switch but Ha Sun was only subbing for the king for 15 days. Shiver!! Dal-lae should have reunited with Ha Sun. The internal and external forces driving a wedge between the monarchy and its people seemed overwhelming, and someone with a weak resolve . She cracks it and makes a wish, but when she opens her eyes, shes still alone. SO COOL.you just turned this drama into the preamble to "KINGDOM". Anyway, overall best Korean drama ever! fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); Because there were no consequences for the King as a pre-existing character. While there were memorable scenes and dialogue, I feel like the overall message the show was trying to convey got muddled along the way. Moo-young declares that hes going with Ha Sun, and none too soon because only seconds later, he whips out his sword and goes after the assassins that have been following Ha Sun. . The people's hero Woo Do-hwan is MBC's Joseon Lawyer, First look at Kim Seo-hyung in ENA's Paper Moon, Drama viewership ratings for the week of Feb. 20-26, 2023. Hello? Ser que foi o rei que ele indicou? No one would let a lowborn guy like him to rule if he was not able to fool everyone to think he is the king. And clothes? It was cleverly placed so he wouldnt appear foolish but experienced in many avenues of sports which pleased me very much. P.S. She gave up and it seems they met in Heaven? Heyena. Its not even just that, its poorly constructed as a concept, let alone a written piece. While some of the plotting did feel a little rushed at the end, especially with the 2 time jumps, for the most part Crowned Clown delivered a highly satisfying final episode. He reminds her that he made her promise never to harm herself, and says that hes returning the knife only so she can protect herself, but she says that she intends to keep her word. Early on there were comments about the disclaimer at the beginning of each episode of TCC. Unfortunately, the drama version ending didn't give us much closure and added more questions that needed to be answer. It's not that King Loves is terrible, but if you put MLDBC, MLSHR and KL on a scale, KL veers more towards the extreme that is occupied by MLSHR, instead of the MLDBC extreme. Great points. Even jin pyong and dowager queen found it out in the last minute and the whole thing happened within 3, 4 months. xfbml : true, // parse social plugins on this page Anyway, this was my first sageuk and I'm really glad I watched it. The drama took some risks like killing off the king halfway, according to the actor who played haksan it was something they had in mind since the beginning. Eventually, the rice payment law goes into effect in a few southern provinces to begin. Would have been nice if Officer Jang could have had a chance at a normal life. This went on for 3 or 4 times, the guard took advantage of it and oneday ordered to kill the disrespectful guard who is laughing at him (but actually the real king dressed in guard clothing ). ). He asks why Minister Lee did such a reckless thing, and Minister Lee apologizes for not keeping his promise never to leave him. The problem is, is that the show did not actually want to tell the story of the King AND the Clown. As Moo-young falls, he recalls Ha Sun asking him what his greatest wish in life is. js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; His fears. Ha Sun watches, horrified, as Minister Lee grabs a sword from a guard and runs Prince Jin-pyung through, taking several sword wounds in the back himself. I enjoy things I also think are objectively bad. I didnt watch more than the first episode, but to kill off such a central character and then not resolve the conflict that the murder would have caused would have been an utterly frustrating watch for me as well. Yeo Jin-gu was also just so much better and fresher as Yi Heon in every way. With a satisfying conclusion and impressive cinematography throughout, this Korean drama makes for quite the impressive showing. A verification email has been sent to your new email address. Yay for Jung Il-woo and the Good Guys. Jin-goo has indeed been phenomenal. They just look at each other for a long time, then So-woon says that she has this dream all the time, but when she approaches, he usually disappears. And the drama did well as well. . I was lucky, it was so beautiful about music, acting, costumes, and I appreciated that there was balance between politics and romance. I too loved MLSHR, BUT I enjoyed it WHILE knowing and recognising its flaws. (In case you don't know, it's a weekly article we had then to publish the BEST comments of the week. The King, all his loves, fears, weaknesses and strengths, his idiosyncrasies, his handwriting, his tone of voice, he as a person, already has to exist before the Clown can pretend to be him. :). Or am I confused? Thanks for sticking through this for me! Give me a break. Ultimately, the show may have raised interesting questions, intentionally or not, but it gives a simplistic answer that's wholly unsatisfying in this regard. Thanks s lot for this essay! Why stop there? Lets break this down. This probably means I have to watch "Vincenzo" to find out what Kim Hee-won's visual style is.) I love how real his performance was. Did he wish on one of his hazelnuts?! And then the Clown and his Queen live happily ever after, after the Clown suddenly abdicates after having a COMPLETE change in behaviour and personality I might add, that nobody frakking realises. I briefly thought the show was trying to say that Cray Cray's Cray was entirely due to the environment he was living in. The fact that he did it on his own, without Minister Lees help, was sad but also impressive, and he proved to himself that hes capable of anything despite his low birth. Live together in a small hut just the two of them and So Woon's maid in obscurity for the rest of their lives? Ever since she promised to protect the clown, everyone keep serving her chopped onions. But Minister Shin and the queen dowager convinced themselves that their crimes were righteous and that they were morally innocent, when in reality they only wanted power and revenge. Rather i think its because its extremely rare (almost impossible) to find a doppelganger who matches you in everyway to the extent that you are even able fool most intimate people like wives, closest servants etc. There almost were- with the Queen almost committing suicide out of guilt, Shin almost exposing the Clown as a fake, and Ha Seon finding out Haksan killed the king. Since Writer-nim didn't bother to reveal who patched up Ha Sun and kept him safe while he recovered, I'll fill in the blanks by assuming that he somehow ended up in the care of Doctor Monk. It made it interesting. And with the way Hasun suddenly reappeared and the Queen didn't even ask him where he was, only asked what took him so long?? Shes decided to leave the gibang, and she tells Ho-geol that she intends to travel and just enjoy life for a while. They weren't flawless, but they honored their own internal logic and the characters' developmental arcs. That was unfair!! He says that if she refuses, hell hang Minister Lees body at the gates for the people to see, and then theyll know that she caused this rebellion without justification. O/T but can I suggest that you maybe jump over to HAECHI and give it a try? Kwon Hae-hyo delivered with bells on in the ruthless social-climbing department until Lord Shin inexplicably lost the plot at the end of the show. Poop smell can change for illnesses as well haha. I think @kiara tipped me off about it. Maybe some beanies can take a shot at that. We see a couple discussing what went wrong in . Thank you for the suggestion, @marcusnyc20, I will try Haechi in the future :), Congrats on your 1st Sageuk! And all conflict and tension that should exist because of a Clown being a fake King on a throne and surrounded by people that want to kill him, goes away. The Crown is a historical drama streaming television series about the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, created and principally written by Peter Morgan, and produced by Left Bank Pictures and Sony Pictures Television for Netflix.Morgan developed it from his drama film The Queen (2006) and especially his stage play The Audience (2013). There was a king and one of the his guards at the door looked very much like him, an uncanny resemblance. Because they do make sense. }); As is so aptly stated in NIRVANA IN FIRE, Time flows like water, and what has gone cannot come again. Give it a rest, Pakalana. I have seen a lot if historical dramas because i generally like historical/costume dramas and this is certainly a drama that i really enjoyed. Thats not all though as we soon find out. And yes, "The Crowned Clown" has a happy ending. Some found it a plot mistake but others didn't or found it interesting . Or is he just slow witted when it comes to matters like his own safety? Whatever you want to argue the reason for this was, and whatever you want to argue the reason for Ha Seon blithely forgiving him for this was, and whatever the argument posed for whether Haksan was good or bad, does not matter. But Ha Sun tells her not to worry about it, because he plans to abdicate and has already chosen his successor Lord Giseong. Finally they live happily ever after. Rumors say there was a clown with the face of the king, and that he was alive, but none of them was revealed to be true. This drama you have to choose the ending I chose he had died then she did and he came to get her so they could go together to heaven. There are of course all the issues with adultery and what shouldve been her reaction given the historical context and even arguments about who was the better husband for her, but none of that is really that important or relevant because on a basic writing level, her character, after trying to commit suicide promptly forgot, or acted like the King as a character never existed and was never important. They just wanted to show the Clown as King. The part that pleased me was when he went to the first tournament and how cleverly he won during archery, or with the dog having that tiger cloth near his hand to confuse the dogs. And his relationship with So-woon was already really nuanced and had great potential for a very unique romance in which So-woon would be the only person who had power over him. He was always so twitchily suspicious that I can't believe he just stood there as Haksan grabbed a guard's sword and charged at him. He was the best!! I was also wishing and hoping to get more of Yi Heon's pre-addiction backstory. To show how good and righteous the Clown was? Think about this, initially only Haksan, Jo, and the Monk knew the Clown was pretending to be the King. The queen dowager refuses to be led away, and walks out under her own power. The queen dowager thinks a moment, then gives him permission to invade the palace and remove the clown from the throne. The Crowned Clown: Episode 16 (Final) by LollyPip It's time for our clown to sink or swim on his own, and one wrong move could mean his death and the death of everyone he cares about. But we are inevitably always going to reach an impasse @shaani. Connect with Facebook Though the family seems fine, their pet dog, Sadie, refuses to enter the home and continues barking frantically. He looked excellent. The premise of this show is the story of a Clown who became King. In sageuks, the best character will always be the one with a twisted past, the one that isn't entirely black or white but has extremely strong values in something, and will do anything to protect those values (i.e. Prince Jin-pyung is in bad shape from his gut wound, but he tries to act like its nothing when the queen dowager visits him. Seriously reviewing shows is too exhausting; I rather like @hotcocoagirls idea of Yi Heon returning as a vampire, and becoming a sullen loose canon on the Officer Jang and Uri Mathematician investigative team. Moo Young should have survived. (Source: Netflix) Minister Lees body is taken into the palace, where Ho-geol sobs over him. The makers of this show (and I assume the movie) decided to show that story by means of a doppelganger plot. Ha Sun kept his nose to the grindstone, and lined up a successor. She says that hed have lived a long life if he hasnt been greedy for the throne, but she tells him in a cold voice that shell make good use of his soldiers, and give the throne to Lord Younghwa instead. It helps to know that I am not the only one who struggled live watching two sageuks at the same time. I'm probably in the minority for this opinion, but I thought it was a bold move for the show to have Lee Kyu kill the king in secret and become the "king" from the shadows. Thats is why the drama is "Crowned clown" or "the man who became king" . Ha Sun was a good king, and he could have been a great king, but he wasnt a happy king. I was glad that Ho-sun and the Queen finally got together but the ending sounded more eternal due to the mist and not quite earthy. So, I'm genuinely happy you got CROWNED CLOWN as your 1st Sageuk. Thanks @kiara and @pakalanapikake for all your comments during the run of THE CROWNED CLOWN. FB.init({ Then what was the point ofanything that ever happened in this show? One of these days I intend to watch SHIN DON, which may overlap with JEONG DO JEON. In the drama the writers won't be able to keep the clown on the throne in the end or they'll have to deal with some angry Korean viewers. Thats right, these bad people need to be punished severely! Stretching it A LOT, but okay. If it was any other drama it would gain only a few comments which would decrease over time, but MLSHR had 2000 comments within few hours even during the last episodes!! But i don't think thats what happened. B) He's attacked and left for dead. As soon as its done, a weight seems to lift from his shoulders. No no. I swear you won't regret it. So what if youre a prince. He was the king without the crown, the mastermind. Also the king wasn't allowed to read his own records in case he'd changed it. They wanted, I think, to tell the story of someone from a lower class who is better at serving the people of a nation than those who have been corrupted in power; they wanted to tell the story of what it would be like to put someone like a Clown on the throne, and what it would be like for a Clown to fall in love with a Queen. The queen dowager grows nervous when things are quiet for too long, but then a soldier runs in to tell her excitedly that they stormed the palace and captured the impostor king. In the past, I've gotten myself in a swivet over dramas I was deeply invested in that later derailed or otherwise succumbed to out-of-character behavior, illogical happy endings, etc., etc. I was caught up in some work! I dropped this drama once Yi Heon died, but have been keeping up with recaps only to be disappointed with what the writers have been doing every episode. I doubt the ministers were this stupid not to reveal something that they know to be true. But because he did such a good job, I almost wished he would stay (however in the movie I wanted him to stay more than anything). DEFINITELY MLDBC!! Yes me too. I guess my only questions are: Why? You will receive a link to create a new password via email. Jung Bo-suk, Oh Man-seok, Kim Yeo-jin, and Jung Sung-mo are in it, which makes it very appealing. I loved the show but we need to know How he survived. Not bashing the show, these are just my thoughts. But I'm still not sure how the Queen managed to stop feeling guilty over her initially inadvertent betrayal of Yi Heon. An emotional farewell with Eunuch Jo (now Royal Secretary Jo) ensues and Ha Sun leaves the palace for good, following after So Woon who left the palace just before he did. This is a critique of the show alone. Dodi wants his father to meet his girlfriend Kelly, an . It's a pity at that time I wasn't on DB, it sounds a so fun experience! 3. also, thanks to the author for the recap. This does not mean you cannot enjoy it. The Crown Season 5 ending explained The episode begins with the Royal Family agreeing to the decommissioning of the royal yacht, Brittania. I don't care how emotionally satisfying others may find the ending, two years in a coma without modern medicine is just so absurd it takes me right out of the story. if (d.getElementById(id)) return; For me, the difference between Minister Lees decisions to end a life and Minister Shins or the queen dowagers is the intent. Minister Lee didn't see himself as a hero but more like a tool for his country not good or bad but useful. I could have accepted that, though, because Ha Seon only wanted the power to protect the people he loved, and his sister and the ahjae were safe, so he succeeded and then felt it would be better to hand over the throne to someone more suitable. And even that wouldn't have happened if Lee Jun-ki wasn't leading the drama basically single-handedly! Nooo, not Moo-young! I was expecting more repercussions and a deeper analysis into these morally grey characters, but their actions, especially the murder of Yi Heon, were brushed over in simple strokes, diminishing the weight and impact of these moments. [ENG SUB] Lee Se Young interviews Yeo Jin Goo for Cosmopolitan KoreaPart 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJovfWJncToPart 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=. I never doubted that Ha Sun was capable of being a true king, but seeing him come into his own strength and take on his enemies himself, outsmart them, and return the nation to peace was extremely satisfying. We got to see one measly flashback of Yi Heon and the Queen early in their marriage before he started going off the deep end. In general I feel that The Crowned Clown was successful in effectively telling its shocking story, and that it did so in a gorgeous, impactful way. I am relatively new to historical dramas but I am enjoying them. Ha Sun argues that the people in the palace are his people too, so he cant just abandon them to save himself. As for Moo-young he died with his boots on. The same night during a family game, one of the daughters finds the entrance to an eerie cellar - which Roger inspects immediately but finds nothing. If you want to tell a story about a Clown being King, do NOT make that ENTIRE premise hinge on a single character and then treat him as a plot device! also the end was dreamlike, similar to the soft focus happy endings of Crash Landing on You but were these true endings or just wishful thinking? Which is why it is still very (in)famous, known as the "MLSHR Phenomenon". So after the preliminary introductions, they used Yi Heon as a plot device, to get the Clown into the Kings position and then they abandoned the King. So what happens, when you kill him, and, moral implications aside, there are no consequences to this, is that your plot doesnt frakking make sense. ;-). Haksan had to die for his sins. And nobody likes him anyway, right? It wasnt explicitly said, but I believe that once he had gotten revenge on Minister Shin and the queen dowager, he realized that hed been using the throne for his own personal reasons and thats why he abdicated to someone who could truly put the country first. But that's not what Sicarius' point is. And how exactly was she able to leave the palace and not return to her family home or hie herself to a nunnery as she had told Daebi that she would do? (I did watch it, and I was right.). Like you, I'm only live-watching one drama at present, having dropped both TRAP and ITEM. 2. 1. He used to swap cloths with the guard make him sit on the throne and would laugh when ministers and noble men bowed to the guard. In this video we take a deep dive and explain Season 5 of Netflix/Peter Morgan's "The Crown" reviewing its connection to the real royal family, history, and . Minister Lee : he was really a great character. Thanks so much for the recaps LollyPip! When I was watching HWAJUNG, I had to put it on the back burner a bit more than half-way through, and didn't get back to it for three weeks. Do not base it on a doppelganger trope, only to IGNORE the implications and potential and importance of that doppelganger trope. I've tried to watch it about four times now and still I could anticipate the bad taste it would leave in my mouth. cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access I just wanted the man to be happy. Voc sabe quem mandou matar o Ha Seon no final da srie? Other than that, I loved this drama and I'm sorry it over. js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js"; And do not had any problem wit it. Jung Il-woo is giving a fine performance as Prince Lee Geum. As So Woon is unable to bear children, Ha Sun decides to leave the throne to a more worthy contender, proclaiming he was only borrowing the throne temporarily and never fully deserved the accolade. Because they went about writing it completely the wrong way, and the premise was flawed from the very beginning due to how they decided to tell it. All this leads me to wonder now if the ending is much darker than it seems on the surface? Couldnt stop watching. Strangely, the gates are wide open and the courtyard empty, so Minister Shin halts the soldiers and looks around suspiciously. Please enter your username or email address. ;-). Hurting herself means kind of killing herself and finding him in afterlife i guess but i don't think thats how it happened. And no maid will serve you water if youre not Team Good. Sorry for the late reply! Royalty? Because the show you THOUGHT you were getting, the doppelganger plot with the tension and juxtaposition created by that, is actually a different show altogether. And I absolutely loved the ending, with Ha Sun abdicating the throne, because Ive never felt okay with the idea of his keeping it when it really never belonged to him. The end was quite disapointing, I mean the jump in the future was useless. It was a peculiar incident. Distracted, Moo-young tries to get to Ha Sun, but hes stopped by a sword through the chest. EPISODE 16 RECAP I read the rest afterwards but i still have to say the same. Recaps done buy the Sageuk Queen HeadsNo.2 (We miss you, @headsno2 ) and filled with the snarkiest comments and jokes, most creative beanie poems, enjoyable analysis and historical trivia, all provided by the most fun, experienced and intellectual beanies EVER to date.
