Do I truly have the face of someone not meant to be king? – Prince Gwanghae

For the next 16 years, the illegitimate prince lives through turbulent times, enduring death threats and possible dethronement. Gwanghae has a contentious relationship with his father King Seonjo, and the two eventually become rivals in politics and love.

FANGIRL FEELS

 

  • Plot is interesting, satisfying amount of action and nerve-wrecking moments.
  • Some people say this drama is boring, but I think it was a really good series.
  • Shin Sung Rok is good at playing the bad character. No words needed to describe it.
  • As a Seo In Guk fan, I enjoyed this drama just by staring at how hot he is as a prince. He did an awesome job portraying Prince Gwanghae! I loved how he showed his emotion through his eyes.
