Hello everyone, I'm Siwan's fan and I'm a newbie to this topic :3 Can anyone please add me to the PM group please becuz I really want to know more about the story :)))

 

Welcome to the thread  :ohpressor:  please introduce more Siwan fans to this thread, please!

eMopRiNc3ss69x is in charge of the PM group, so you'll have to wait a bit until she realises that OneHallyu is back up.

Ha sure anything you want to know about my boy, feel free to ask =)) Siwan is pretty shy tho, he is not talkative at all, he is very calm and introvert, but very serious, careful and hard-working at the same time. i hope YoonA will be the Vitamin and use her positive energy to make him feel more comfortable to get along with the others, because at first when it comes to strangers he is pretty shy and not really out-going =))

Thank you so much for telling us! I don't know much about his personality, now I do. I hope the main leads get along well  :ahmagah:

So there's rumours that it's been extended to 40 episodes? 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He suits the king role more than siwan lol

 

Really? I beg to differ. 

 

For me Siwan suits the King role a whole lot more than HJH.

 

1) The King is meant to be strikingly beautiful. I think we can all agree Siwan is beautiful. I wouldn't describe HJH as beautiful. (I would describe him as manly handsome)

 

2) The role of the King requires strong acting skills, for me (I only saw him in Missing and HJH in ML), Siwan has the upper hand in acting skills by far. I'm confident he'll play Wang Won amazingly and blow us away. I'm anticipating his portrayal! 

 

3) Siwan feels more like leading male material than HJH. Maybe because I've seen Siwan in a first male lead role and HJH as a  supporting role. 

 

Honestly, reading the chapter summaries and the character descriptions, Siwan sounds absolutely perfect for the role. 

 

 

 

 

 

Yeah he is really private too. So it's really hard to stalk him =))) Usually when anyone pokes him he just smile or laugh shyly then cover his face with his hands and that's it, he is not gonna tease back =)))
I heard that YoonA is a very funny and energetic girl, I really want to see YoonA tease Siwan and make his ears turn red, it will be really fun to watch =))))

 

I'm so excited to see their interactions, their personalities seem so different from one another but thankfully, Yoona is well known as a friendly person with many friends with all sorts of personalities. So I'm sure sooner or later, she'll be able to break Siwan's shy barrier and Siwan and her will be able to become close friends (: 

 

 

I think he looks really manly and sexy, and yeah somehow he has the makings of a hero (or a king). His role as the Third Prince Wang Yo in Moon Lover is very impressive, if this is a typical king role, you know, powerful, imposing, then HJH will definitely suit the role better than Siwan :3
But Won in the original novel has a very pretty and delicate appearance with plump red lips and pale skin, but his inner is very complicated, ambitious,somehow cruel, sensitive, passionate =))) So I think Siwan is a great choice for the Won role.

 

I agree with you ^^


Hi guys! Also a newbie here and a YA can i please be added to the pm group as well? The novel seems to be a very good read. If only i can read hangul though

Really hope we get to share more updates in this thread.

 

Welcome to the forum & this thread!!  :ahmagah:

Sorry to cut your post but I doubt the rumour. It might have been in the talks but they would lose most of the cast if they do so. I am pretty sure they plan with around of 5 to 6 month of shooting. When they extend it to 40 episodes the shooting period can extend to a year unless they do the live shoot modus then it remains six months. But the sense behind a pre-poduction is to escape the live shoot and have more time for details. "Saimdang, Light's Diary" is a upcoming sageuk which took 11 month for around 30 episodes. 

 

We forget that Yoona is part of SNSD who are planing a comeback next year. It will be almost impossible for her to do both. And for SM, SNSD is before Yoona's individual career. 

Similarly, for Im Siwan and Hong Jong-Hyun: I doubt they want to film a year without having much chance of doing something else. 

 

I understand, it doesn't seem likely. I can see it being 24 episodes though. 

 

Moon Lovers: 20 episodes [6 months]

Saimdang, Light's Diary: 30 episodes [11 months]

 

I think the Saimdang team were quite slow if you compare the months and episodes, but then again, the quality of Moon Lovers was lower than most peoples expectations. Saimdang probably took a lot of time paying attention to details (which is good).

i saw the tweet abt the bed scene in the novel? is it true? who? san n rin? or san n won?

 

Yes I tweeted about that. But I didn't reveal which characters. I can't say which characters unless you read the chapter summaries. You'll just have to wait for the translator to DM you ^^

 

And once you read the chapter summaries you can't spread major spoilers about the story please.

 

 

About the bed scenes, I have a feeling they'll add it but it'll be implied not shown. Like they did with Goong/Princess Hours. What do you all think?

Sweet Siwan!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


I was thinking we should start requesting it on viki, I know it won't air for a while but what if MBC decides to do some exclusive Netflix deal and delay the release for two months like they did with Night Light 

 

Here's the form:

 

https://vikiinc.wufoo.com/forms/title-request-form/

 

 

Thank you! Will fill it now and post it on the OH TKL twitter page so others sign it!

Look like San has feeling with Rin more than Won, omg

 

Yes ^^

 

Dramabeans mentioned it here: http://www.dramabeans.com/2016/12/hong-jong-hyun-up-to-rival-im-shi-wan-in-the-king-loves/#more-121734

 

'Hong Jong-hyun is up to play an elegant, refined young man of royal lineage who loses everything to his best friend, the crown prince. The one thing he realizes that he can have that the prince can’t is the love of one woman, and he’ll become a tragic figure who destroys a friendship for love. Well, to be fair, I think they’re all going to be complicit in the tragedy and the destruction.'

 

 

You're welcome stellahbella! Nice to see you again^^

Thank you its nice to se you and the k2 crew again as well!!!! :smile:

 

With everyone reunited again I'm thinking Party Time hehe :lol:

 

:ahmagah:  yes!! We've got a long way to go until it airs, but let's make the most of it all!

 

Omg thanks for explaining 

 

You're welcome ^^

 

Thanks Konjo..

 

So the actor playing Won father's changed? No more LR's reunion?

 

Yes :( no LR reunion anymore. But it's okay, the actor replacing him is a talented ahjussi.

 

just saw a tweet about rins brother jeon and san.

 

Won't rin get san at the end or jeon?

 

I can't tell you who ends up with who. But as seen from that drama beans link I posted a couple of hours ago, San loves Rin (vice versa). Jeon likes San yes. But San doesn't love him in that way. 

 

awesome! you should add this on the op konjo

 

Will do now ^^

 

 

 

 

 

This is an updated version.

 

I changed the bisexuality part. Emoprincess (the user who did the chapter summaries for us) never mentioned bisexuality despite we saw it from two blogs in the early days of this dramas announcement. Some people kept saying it was Won's extreme obsession towards Rin instead of bisexuality. So I just changed it to that.

Thank you for explanation. Actually can we expect a happy ending for even one character? for won or san or rin?

I like all the lead actors so much so  happy ending for even one charcter can make me contented.

 

 

 

You're welcome ^^ I can't say, I'd rather you just read the spoilers. Hopefully the user emoprincess will be back soon~

 

Who is actor playing Yoonas father? Why is his name Baek when she is Won? :._.:

 

We don't know if he's confirmed, but I forgot the name of the unconfirmed actor was called.

 

Look at what emoprincess wrote in the first two chapters of San's father, how she addressed him. great merchant Baek. It must be his first name in this case. San is a Wang, not a Won ^^ Like I wrote on the chart the names are subject to change as they're a bit shaky at the moment.
