I too am fascinated by the hair pins and clothes and from watching so many sageuks, I know the differences in the Hanbok, Ornaments and hair accessories signify rank. Although, not touched upon in this drama. There are usually different classes for the women that "service" the king. King Hwon here only has one wife, when in reality, he would have many more women.
All women in the palace are the King's women. Including the cooks, attendants etc. Spending a night with the king, elevates you up in rank to special lady, which gives you your own palace and attendants. Then depending on how you win the king's favor, deliver a child, a male child etc. you get elevated in class. Just like the men took those civil service exams, the women had exams/testing also and also had different ranks. There is only one queen, who is married to the king, but sometimes he also has noble consorts, even among the noble consorts there were different ranks. All consorts however, out rank concubines. Only the queen and noble consorts, were considered members of the royal family. So for those who have seen other sageuks, when the king marries or the crown prince marries, they have a wedding ceremony, but for the other women, when they are elevated, the ceremony is performed by the queen.
I hope our knowledgeable principal and teachers on this thread, will share more insight about this, as we wait for previews and new episodes. Royal Court life fascinates me, and I would love to know more.

Please put spoilers in spoiler tags, don't just change the font color. I just read a huge spoiler by accident, and was so pissed, I started cursing, which is really bad, because I don't usually curse. I even surprised myself with the words that were coming out of my own mouth, lol. That shows how into this drama I am.
Kim Soo Hyun is amazing. He totally sold all the right emotions. His look of longing, his look of anguish, pain and then his tears at the end of episode 10. I was freaking bawling. Sigh, now we wait for another week.

Lee Min-ho (young prince) joins Rooftop Prince cast
-
Omo mo mo mo mo, I just watched episode 7 and 8 and I wasn't disappointed.
I have to apologize to Kim Soo Hyun, he totally pulled it off. I was one of the vocal doubters, and I have to admit I was wrong. He sold it, I love his interpretation of the role. The cute, rambunctious prince, has been replaced by a weary and heart broken king, who feels he has no one to trust or lean on.
And Han Ga In, sold the doe eyed innocent role well also. All in all, great job.
This drama is daebak!
-
okay honzbear and daunte29, you both have differing points of view, but nevertheless, add interesting points/discussion to this thread. Which, I hope you both continue to do, for those of us that are watching the drama and following this thread. I hope you both call a cease fire and move on. You both seem knowledgeable and passionate about your views.
So lets, continue to enjoy this Sageuk together
-
@daunte29, excellent military and battle analysis. Interesting and intriguing.
I am glad there are discussions and the thread is moving along nicely.
Does anyone know, what episode Yakeon tells Damdeok she is pregnant?
-
So Avex is suffering, and they have had a falling out with SM, since SNSD didn't sign with them, and SHinee also went to another company. I guess Karma still exists, after all the crap they did to JYJ and trying to ruin their career.
-
I can't wait for Roof Top Prince.
I hope all fans support.
Fighting!!
-
^ LOL, your posts are so funny. Keep up the updates
-
^ I enjoy reading your posts and over view of this drama.
I watched Geunchogo, and I actually liked it, but I strongly disliked the first queen, the one that was supposed to be his soul mate. She irritated me to no end. The character was badly written and the actress was no better.
-
Thanks to all the posters keeping us updated on this thread.
By watching so many sageuks, I have become much more interested in history.
I prefer traditional sageuks like this to the more recent fusion sageuks that are populating kdramas now.
Gorguryeo's mistake was always forgiving Baekje and Silla, treating them as naughty siblings rather than enemies. A mistake that will later bite them in the richard simmons.
It's funny, one tends to side with the country or group that is the focus of the drama. If you watch Queen Seon Duk, then you will be cheering for Silla to beat Gorguryeo, lol.

YOONA
SNSD in general
People go on and on about how beautiful Yoona is, but I really don't think she is that pretty. There are way more beautiful Korean celebrities, even just among the idols. I don't get how an entire nation can be fooled. Is it PR, marketing or people just joining the band wagon.
She is not photogenic, and some of her pictures are downright ugly.
The whole SNSD craze is also confusing. They are average in singing, dancing and looks.
-
well this drama was finally completely subbed.
Sadly, this drama is another long drama with a badly done ending.
Thanks to all for the discussions and the enjoyment we had during the early episodes.
-
Thanks to all that are posting. I guess we will be spazzing together on JYJ's Facebook, Youtube and JYJ3.net. I am glad to see the boys doing so well, the JYJ fandom blossoming and growing every day. Here's to a great 2012. JYJ and JYJfans fighting!
-
This drama makes no sense.
Plus got so boring and pointless quickly.
What the heck is going on in kdrama land, the quality of dramas have gone down hill.
I hardly ever give up on a drama, but this one, I am moving on from.
BORING is an understatement.
-
Hopefully she doesn't end up in another idol group singing empty lyrics and bland songs. The Kpop industry has a way of stripping people that have talent, and just turning them into another Kpop clone. They will get her on a diet, some plastic surgery, some so called "training" and she will emerge as a shadow of her original self

Your a legend for compiling this list. Just a heads up that I shared this to all my twitter friends and I also credited that it was your work. I hope that's fine with you, if it's not please do tell and I will delete immediately.
I didn't actually compile the list. It was compiled by @dolphinxiah on TheJYJFiles (http://thejyjfiles.wordpress.com/charitable-contributions-by-jyj-and-fans/). So they deserve all the credit and hard work for this awesome compilation.
I love how JYJ and JYJ fans are using their fame to make social contributions and have a positive impact in the world.

On December 1st, rice wreaths from fans of over 37 actors and singers were unloaded in Seoul Plaza for the Salvation Army by the company Dreame (t/n: this is one of the main companies that does rice wreath donations). Fans from Korea and abroad normally send rice wreaths to their idols for musicals, concerts, and press conferences. The total of wreaths from this round of donations was 11,635 kg, which is enough to give meals to over 100,000 children.
The rice wreaths from Dreame came from AB Foods Market and will be sent to local children’s shelters as well as the national center for social welfare and undernourished children; benefiting young boys and girls as well as the elderly.
JYJ’s Park Yoochun leads the list with 1.6 tons of rice donated in his name. Singer Rain comes in second with 1.55 tons, followed by actor Song Chang-ee with 1.54 tons, singer JungMin with 1.2 tons, the Beast members with 720Kg, girl group KARA with 600Kg, and 2pm with 330 kg.
This is for the Holiday season only. JYJ fans previously broke the record for Rice Wreath donations. When fans donated 6.56 tons of rice, during JJ's Protect the Boss drama. Plus an additional, 1.73 tons of rice for their Busan concert, 1.86 tons of rice for Yoochun's Miss Ripley drama and 1.3 tons of rice for Junsu's Tears of Heaven play. So this year alone, JYJ fans have donated more than 13 tons (26,000+ pounds) of rice.

[NEWS] Top stars donate 11 tons of rice
http://jyj3.net/2011/01/14/news-top-stars-donate-11-tons-of-rice/
Instead of gifting their idols with luxurious gifts, fans have started to use their power and influence for the good of society. For years fans have donated money in their idols’ name and a variation of this movement has been gaining prominence in Korean fan culture: donating rice. Donating rice not only helps the receiver, but simultaneously benefits and increases sales for rice farmers.
In October 2010, JYJ’s fans donated 8.38 tons of rice to congratulate the trio for their Seoul showcase. On January 13th, charity organizations “Measures Against Starvation” and “Rice Dreamy” announced a 3-month long charity event seeking donations of rice from the public. Even though it’s only been a mere two days since the campaign launched, the fanclubs of 41 top stars have already donated an amazing amount of 11 tons of rice.
Rice Dreamy’s representative said “being able to have charities and entertainers come together for a common cause and donating rice to help the unfortunate makes me very happy” and “we will give our all to reach our goal of at least 30 tons.”
With the explosive results from the first two days, there is no doubt that the organizations will reach their goal.

SNSD’s Jessica Receives Mixed Responses for her Acting
in k-entertainment general discussion
Posted
Reading the comments on this article, is why Kpop will die out sooner than later. Anyone, watching that scene or even any episode of the drama can see clear as day, that Jessica's acting SUCKS. Yet, there are people on here making excuses, blaming the producers, the directors, everyone but the person who went up for an acting role, when they CAN'T ACT. If fans continue to make excuses and overlook the flaws of their biases, how will they ever improve? SMH. The SM idol acting fails continue - Yunho = FAIL; Changmin = FAIL; Jessica = FAIL; Yoona = FAIL. Siwon is okay = C-. The best is the girl from f(x), Krystal.
