— Stay alert at my funeral. Everyone who disliked me will attend. Hyeon-ju, Jeong-mi, Eun-jin, and Ye-na. Listen carefully to what they say. — And? — Sue them all if they bad-mouth me. Sue them for defaming the dead. — Me? — Then, should I? I'll be in the coffin. — Come on. I don't think anyone would mourn. — So, you should.

Wedding Impossible

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2024

Wedding Impossible (2024, South Korea)

Director: Kwon Young Il

Writers: Oh Hye Won & Park Seul Ki (based on the webtoon by Song Jung Won)

Mini-review:

Well, this drama was entertaining, but nothing more. It was especially funny at the beginning, thanks to that sort of 'rivalry' between the leads. However, once they solved that and started moving into purely romantic territory, the story began to lose steam quickly. Tbh, I kept watching to the very end because of the sizzling chemistry between Jeon Jong Seo and Moon Sang Min. And I guess I wanted to see how in the world they were gonna clear up the mess created by the characters, which was pretty fascinating. I feel like the show would have been better if the director had put more thought into its style, cause the whole thing looked pretty cheap and bland. But still, Wedding Impossible is fun enough, and I can see fans of classic romcoms enjoying it a lot.

Under the Queen's Umbrella: Midseason, spoiler-free review

*Warning: This is a long post that no one asked for.

If you're still on the fence about starting this show, then let this be a sign for you to give it a shot. It's a real shame that people seem to be sleeping on this series just because it's not driven by romance and cookie-cutter characters from other popular historical dramas.

It's a refreshing take on the genre, and if you're willing to suspend your disbelief even a little bit regarding certain historical inaccuracies (it is totally fiction / AU after all), then this show will be worth your while.

The Premise (if you don't already know): Queen Im Hwaryeong, played by the majestic Kim Hye-soo, is the wife of King Yi Ho (Choi Won-young), with whom she has five sons. The Crown Prince is picture perfect, but the other four have been branded as underachieving troublemakers by palace gossip. The Queen has to run around to keep them all in check, manage the ambitious concubines, and go toe-to-toe with the Dowager to protect her children. Further intrigue ensues, and the fight to restore honor turns into a war to stay alive.

Cast / Acting: This is yet another vehicle for Kim Hye-soo, who has been so amazing in choosing roles and stories since her small screen return in Signal (2016). Queen Hwaryeong is commanding, ruthless, and witty, but also loving, warm, and vulnerable. I live for the sarcastic bows she makes towards the Dowager, her eyebrows (!), and the physical comedy especially in the first two episodes. Just as the queen can move in any direction, KHS once again proves that she can do it all.

The small but terrible Dowager is so masterfully played by Kim Hae-sook (Start Up, Tomorrow). She knows just what to say and how to say it to get under your skin. I don't know how they do it, but between her acting and the editing / lighting, the Dowager's beady eyes have this dark vibe and you know that she's up to something lethal but in the blooper reel the actress' eyes sparkle with joy (?!) Talk about attention to detail. The scenes where the two women standoff are definitely the acting highlights of the series so far.

The casting is pretty solid for the rest of the supporting characters as well. Choi Won-young plays a wise king in a real bind. He's empathetic and insightful, and has a calming presence I rarely feel in the portrayals of kings in the sageuk genre.

The Grand Princes, princes, concubines, court ladies, and ministers all gel together quite well, but if we're talking Baeksang Awards, Kim Hye-soo has a real shot for Best Actress next year along with Park Eun-bin. (If one of them gets Best Actress, then the other should get Daesang, I don't care which, just let both of them be recognized.)

Writing / Characterization: I'm limited by my desire to keep this review spoiler-free, but it really is a refreshing take on the sageuk, and oddly enough, of the family/political drama genre in general.

The motivations are easy to follow but the alliances aren't always clear cut. Among the antagonists, you just know they're going to stab each other in the back and that no one's putting all their eggs in one basket. And based on the ep 9 preview, even the Queen seems to initiate an alliance with one of her biggest foes.

The Queen may have some plot armor but no one seems to benefit from deus ex machina (yet?). The twists and turns have happened within reason so far, though there are a few flashbacks that have yet to be explained in the latter half of the show, particularly regarding Grand Prince Seongnam's childhood and the Queen's early days as the Crown Princess.

I don't know if writer Park Ba-ra was actively aiming for a feminist show but she's done a splendid job so far. The women definitely run the show, and are far more nuanced than just "strong", but that doesn't mean the men have to be useless either. The King actually has something to do beyond believing the first piece of fake news that he gets?! And the princes have different goals, motivations and, methods to get what they want (Ep 8 is quite the masterpiece).

Ultimately, the central theme is motherhood, with the show being both an homage and a critique of maternal love. The Queen's relationships with her sons are used to represent the ideal in the modern sense (she's literally a working mom who needs to drag her kids to school). She nags a lot because she's worried but is affectionate and loves them unconditionally.

But through the King and the Dowager, the other princes and concubines, we get a kaleidoscope of how the same maternal love can yield vastly different results. It can even be harmful for both the children and their mothers.

There are some questionable points in the scenario. There aren't any princesses and the previous queen also had exactly five sons which is odd considering the infant mortality rate of the period. But it's forgivable once you give the plot a chance to unravel. I did have a hard time keeping track of all the princes' names at first but that, too, falls into place right away.

Direction / Visuals: Gorgeous. The cinematography is really something to behold. I especially love the overhead shots, wide shots, and the use of light and rain in general. They also like making the two women look bigger than everyone else because they literally have the most power. Episode 1 has my favorite shot when the first tragedy strikes, and episode 3 has the best painting at the end before the title card. (Can't put them here or I might spoil it for you, sorry.)

I did have a few qualms with episode 2 since they tried something a little too modern and unnecessary, making a family discussion look like a video call / chat room. It also had a running/crying scene with less than perfect backgrounds that were so obviously green screen. It distracted from KHS's acting, unfortunately. But quality has been uphill since then by allowing the stellar cast and intrigue to take center stage.

Midseason verdict: 9 / 10

TLDR: Watch it without expecting a documentary and you should be ok.

P.S.: None of the beautiful gifs are mine.

Final Review: Under the Queen’s Umbrella

Final Review: Under the Queen’s Umbrella

In a nutshell: the story is about the perennial conflict between the wife and the mother-in-law — taken to an epic level. The plot is very straightforward really. The ex-Queen, now Dowager, has engaged in nefarious acts to ensure her son gains the throne. And she is encouraging history to repeat itself, since she thinks not-so-highly of the Queen’s children, mainly cos she did not select the…

Final: Feliz :)

«Under the Queen’s Umbrella» o «Bajo el paraguas de la reina» es el más reciente k-drama de época (ambientado en Joseon) que tuve la suerte de ver. Debo decir que se convirtió en uno de mis doramas favoritos.

Al parecer, en Corea, la expresión que le da nombre a este drama sería equivalente a nuestro «bajo sus alas». Se refiere a la protección constante que ofrece la reina a sus cinco hijos, uno de los cuales es el príncipe heredero. Los otros cuatro son llamados grandes príncipes, y comparten sus vidas y estudios en el palacio con una decena adicional de príncipes, cada uno de ellos hijo de una concubina diferente. Aunque todas son esposas del rey, ninguna tiene el mismo título ni poder que la reina Hwaryeong, interpretada magníficamente por la actriz Kim Hye-Soo, a quien ya había visto en dramas como Hyena (donde interpreta a una excéntrica abogada) o Signal (policíaco), ambos muy recomendables también.

Cada uno de sus hijos le significa a la reina un desafío diferente. Quizá por no verse bajo la misma presión que su hermano, el heredero de su padre, y porque además ninguno supera la veintena de edad, dan rienda suelta a sus instintos o placeres, huyendo de las responsabilidades, llegando tarde a las clases y poniendo así a la reina en aprietos, obligándola a romper el protocolo y correr de un lado a otro hasta llevarlos donde sus obligaciones como príncipes lo mandan.

Cada príncipe, incluyendo a los hijos de las concubinas, tendrá su propia historia y conflicto; en muchos casos perfectamente comparables a los que tendrían muchachitos de su edad en la actualidad, así como en cualquier parte del mundo. No escribiré sobre ninguno de ellos para no dar spoilers, pero una historia en particular es tan cálida y está tratada con tanta delicadeza y buen gusto, que te emociona y te obliga a caer rendida de amor ante estos personajes y sus interacciones.

Hasta ahí no pareciera ser más que, como dicen las pobres sinopsis de Wikipedia, una comedia en la que una madre lidia con sus hijos revoltosos. En absoluto. El verdadero drama sobreviene con cada Plot Twist, los cuales abundan durante toda la trama y te dejan al borde del asiento. La reina se enfrenta a una desgracia que la lleva luchar con todo su ingenio contra sus enemigos: las concubinas que ambicionan el trono para sus hijos y hasta la misma abuela de los príncipes, madre del rey (aplausos de pie para Kim Hae-Sook, quien la interpreta). Proteger a sus hijos y nietos es su misión más importante. Para la reina no se trata de ambición sino de un caso de vida o muerte. El pasado esconde terribles secretos que se relacionarán con su presente y le darán las pistas que necesita para descubrir quiénes son sus enemigos.

El principal mensaje que rescato de este dorama es el del gran poder que representa el amor de una madre. Claro que no todas las madres son iguales, pero, incluso equivocándose y permitiendo que la ambición las encegueciera, podría decirse que todas ellas buscaron lo mejor para sus hijos.  

Es lindo también ver cómo los príncipes maduran al atravesar las dificultades, ayudando a su madre y manteniéndose siempre unidos.

Con una calidad cinematográfica, actuaciones sobresalientes y un OST maravilloso, UTQU es además impecable, redondo. Nada le sobra ni le falta, y el final, feliz como debe ser, no deja más que satisfacción.

No lo dudes ni un segundo más y corre a refugiarte under the queen’s umbrella...

Kdrama Review

Drama: Under the Queen's Umbrella

Genre: Historical, Comedy, Political

My Rating: 10/10

The Good:

Family

The main focus of this drama is family which is heartwarming and precious. Different types of familial relationships were shown be it mother & son, brothers or husband & wife. They protect and fight for their family.

Plot twists

There are lots of intelligent characters and I can't count on how many times I actually gasp in shock of the plot twists.

A little bit of romance

There are cute moments of Seongnam and Chungha. I really like this pair of smart and good looking people hehe.

Good villains

Villains who are hated are good potrayal of villains.

Kim Hye Soo/Queen Im Hwa Ryung

The role of queen, a mother, a protector and caring person was perfectly embodied by Kim Hye Soo. We can see the love in her eyes when she looks at her children and the fire in her eyes when fighting the Queen Dowager.

Satisfying ending

I was worried that they would rush the last 2 episode but fortunately they didn't. They showed how everyone is doing and the ending was so beautiful.

This is the first time I'm rating a drama 10/10! This kdrama is entertaining from the beginning to the end. I'm gonna miss this wholesome drama.
