Princess Ja Myung - Completed! I just completed a K-drama, Princess Ja Myung. My verdict is - the initial plot idea was not good, so the entire drama does not have a good plot and therefore doesn't have a good ending. Nevertheless, if we close one eye on the quality of the plot (coz the actor and actress are SO GOOD LOOKING hehehe!), then in my opinion, I think the ending is logical and yes I like it. Other viewers criticize the tragic ending of the two main leads...basically the story is like the Korean version of olden day Romeo and Juliet. Many were saying they shouldn't die at the end, blah blah blah. But I feel that prince Hodong has a really stupid father as King, and all his life he is just tolerating his father's stupidity; he is always living under a really stupid king. If I were him, I would probably be so exasperated I'd rather die with the woman I love. The king is all brawns without brain. Disgusting. And perhaps that was the prince's thoughts when he chose to die with princess Ja Myung. Shrug. As for Ja Myung, that's the best option for her since everyone else loyal to her in her kingdom has died...if she didn't die there and then, she will definitely die in a battle in future. The storyline from the beginning is already set up for a tragedy, as the other princess who is prophesized to be the one bringing downfall to the kingdom survived. She became the crown princess and she really did bring the downfall of her nation. Ja Myung was the true crown princess but was heavily sabotaged by the evil 2nd queen and co. Oh well. Why did I spend my time catching this drama? Mainly for the nice dresses, cheesy way of self-explanation by the characters in emotional scenes, a few good sword fight scenes, pretty Ja Myung and Hodong hunk. Hahaha! Well, I thank God that it's only 39 episodes due to low ratings in Korea. =x It was meant to be a 50 episoder. Lol. Labels: k-drama 8:34 PM
