Dong Yi
Set during the reign of King Sukjong in the Joseon dynasty, the story focuses on Dong Yi, a water maid who gains the trust of Queen Inhyeon and later the favour of the king when he is moved by her prayers for the health of the Queen during the court disputes caused by Jang Hee Bin. Dong Yi becomes a concubine with the rank of sook-bin and bears a son who will later become the 21st king of Joseon, Yeongjo.
"Queen Seon Duk" is not just another historical drama; it's an epic saga that brings to life the rich tapestry of Korean history during the Silla Dynasty. This series offers more than just entertainment; it provides a window into an era defined by power struggles, romance, and extraordinary courage. With 62 gripping episodes in its sole season, "Queen Seon Duk" promises an unforgettable journey filled with intrigue and drama.
The series revolves around Princess Deokman, played masterfully by 이요원, whose portrayal captures the essence of a woman destined to become Korea's first queen. Her journey from being secretly sent away as a child to her ascension as Queen Seondeok is a testament to resilience and intelligence. 이요원’s performance is supported by 남지현, who plays young Deokman with equal fervor, bringing depth to her character’s early struggles and aspirations.
At the heart of "Queen Seon Duk" is Lady Mishil, portrayed by 고현정—a character you will love to hate. Her ambition knows no bounds as she manipulates those around her with cunning and charm. The tension between Lady Mishil and Princess Deokman creates a dynamic that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats throughout the series.
