The cinematography in this drama - AHFIAHUGF its sooo good. The scenes are very well artistically shot and the aesthetics and the composition in each scene is very interesting.
I really enjoyed the pace of the first episode - it was fast, kept me on the edge of my seat and left me wanting more. I like that they slowed down the pace for the second episode and spent more time in exposition and fleshing out characters. They're giving friendships, relationships and romance some time to grow - something that I think is important to fantasy thrillers because so much focus is put on the fantasy exposition or the thrilling chase that the romance feels almost forced. So I am glad that they are taking the time to show the little things that matter -like the lingering gaze between the leads which make it more convincing that KGE's character, who normally is too sassy to care about him, has the build up to turn and help LMH.
Speaking of, I love the characters a lot. Kim Go Run does spunky chic so well - that is my #goalz. Lee Min Ho is the king of classic regal romance so I couldn't have thought of better actors for the characters. And thank god Kim Go Eun is not a 19yo (sorry Goblin that was truly one of my biggest qualms)
KES has always shined with her bromances and the start of this drama has me convinced that this one won't be any less. The supporting characters have some traits of their own which in my opinion is important to showing the difference between the two worlds so I love that they have been thought about lol. I do like the prime minister a lot (as of now at least please dont be heartless woman please please). But stay tuned to find out if I feel the same later.
THE OST IS MAGICAL. HWA SA's ORBIT HAS BEEN A CONSTANT ON MY PLAYLIST EVERY DAY. And the song choices are phenomenal.
I do however have 2 things I wish they did differently. In the first episode it was hard to keep track of the jumps from one world to another. While this was bound to happen, I think Signal did it a lot better imo. Once they picked a time they stayed there for a couple of scenes. In The King, I was getting whiplash from skipping from one world to another every scene. That might not be a problem anymore (the second episode was better) so maybe I won't have that problem lol. Also Signal had the older timeline is sepia and newer in white light setting which made it easy to tell which time we were in. If The King did something like that it might help? Unclear. The second thing I wished was if they made the first episode slower paced - did the exposition there and then hit us with fast paced suspense filled episode that leaves me wanting more for the following week.

SIGH....This is laughable
This drama started out so strong to me. I'm like: Geez, how is the villain so savage? Then enters the main leads and everything started to go downhill.I've read a bunch of reviews and I agree with most of them. I absolutely love rom-coms and I love them, even more, when there is a fantasy element. But how can you NOT nail any of these? I've watched a bunch of time-travel romances before and none of them has been this bad? Do they even have any chemistry?
Why don't they give us proper timelines? Sigh...I also don't think that would've helped to show how these two fell in love. Sigh...where is it? It's going to take me so long to finish cause I press the pause button as soon as the 'love' starts. Why is the FL crying so much? I'm so lost!!!!!! I don't get it!!! Can someone help me?
Maybe I'm just salty..but the story is just bad. The acting is too much from the leads. The music is good though!
EDIT
Okay, so I dropped the drama for a while and just started it again because I need to finish it no matter how bad it is. Man this is still a struggle for me to finish. What a huge ad campaign! Advertising really starting to grate on me now.

Could have been best drama but not that good
An amazing story, Just lost its way. (i mean it became bad).Negative character can be shown more amazing, it was shown amazing in the beginning and showily dropping it off and I feel because of too much love it lost its original beauty.
Worth to watch, I say NO but few scene you can.
Cinematography is good
editing is not bad,
flow of drama from episode to episode not good (very few episodes you will like it) and in few episodes they will confuse you
People who like Suspense Drama’s would love this drama but they will get disappointment by the mid of drama.
More then Lee Min Ho, Woo Do-Hwan acting is amazing.

Kim Go-eun’s reaction in the series is very realistic, you cannot expect her not to be taken aback when someone talks about being a king and a parallel universe. It is very normal reaction, she would doubt him. She is simply amazing! Minho is superb in every scene, obviously he is the absolute treat to the eyes, but also he amplifies the whole scene with his royalty and cute cheekiness. This character of his reminds me a lot of his character in Boys Over Flowers, both the characters are lovable in their own way. Woo Dohwan is just simply ADORABLE! his simple smile can say so much, or just his one tilt of his head can talk about how irritated he is with the king. There are many stories of each character woven under one umbrella but you need it, because each character has so much depth to them. They all are connected to one another, the story is building it’s momentum and I think it’s going to FANTASTIC! Already 6 episodes down and I have no complain, it superb! Once again, I believe they have lived to it’s expectations, and the show is regal and is the definition of elegance.

On YouTube i watched a few korean channels review this drama and they said that the FL was annoying at the beginning because she refused to acknowledge the parallel world. However, i found that when watching the drama, the majority of the Korean reviews were very unfair because the acting for me was on point. She was't hateful but she acted appropriately to the possibility of another world, aka not being stupid and bi**hy but not falling for the idea at first glance either. Also, they complained about the romance and how it wasn't enough or it jumped to fast when it got to ep 8 or 9 but i think that it was just enough. It's not sickening with love but you can see how she changes and develops feelings for him through how she looks and talks and acts around him once she experiences his world. You don't need to make it stupidly obvious that she slowly falls for him and that's why i think that this drama is actually better than what people initially said. also i just want to add that the product placement. for me, wasn't too noticeable, well if i didnt watch the videos on youtube i probably wouldn't have even noticed, especially because im not looking for it, if that makes sense.

In this trying times when we have to face a pandemic, if i can get to see beautiful stuff like this one all the time, i dont think I'll ever get bored. Well, here's my honest review.
Wow! I'm speechless. This is close to perfection, i mean the story is yet to unfold, but i can already sense alot of suspense and unanswered questions in the plot which is a reason to want to know what will happen next. And the casting? Super perfect!! Everyone fits perfectly into their role so much that you will feel its realness.
This is the kind of drama you'd wish to binge watch.

Lee Min Ho is came back
I don’t know what to say but I just like this drama so much. At first I was watching it because of the cast but now I am watching it because of the story it’s very interesting and the cast too . Give it a try you will never regret, I am at episode 4 and it’s more interesting. Don’t drop it at episode one or two because it’s more like the introduction of the drama. If you want to see more, you have to keep watching. The cast are doing a good job . ( sorry for my English) I am not a English speaker. Anyway, good lucky ?.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
One of the best Fantasy K-Dramas: A Reassurance
This was my second ever kdrama; it pulled me into the world of dramas, and I've been hooked since then.Do not listen to the mixed reviews; take it from someone who has seen a ton of fantasy dramas (around 45); this is one of the best.
This isn't a review of sorts; I don't remember the scenes well enough to do so.
But I recall the stellar acting and plot. You'll love it if you appreciate fantasy, romance, mystery, drama, and a sci-fi parallel worlds scenario. Give this drama some time; don't drop it after the first two episodes.
(I was obsessed after the first episode, but I know how different people can be; if you have any second thoughts, take my word and watch it.)

It's still good for me...
It's not the best one. Either it's not too good. That doesn't mean it's bad. It's still good. I don't like the story that much. But although the story is not good, the whole drama is beautiful. Songs, casts, effects..... all are beautiful.b b b b. Bb b. B. B. B. B. B b.

Drama difícil pero no imposible
se me hizo muy difícil empezar este drama porque lee min ho se me hace un actor muy sobrevalorado en el que siempre representa los mismos papeles y su forma de gesticular es algo pobre en comparación con otros actores "top" con los que se compara pero me decidí a empezarlo como una prueba personal para mi objetividad.El drama empieza bien, la idea me pareció muy atrapante y lo que mas me gusto es que no se deja al villano como jefe final y tiene participación en el 80% de los capítulos donde se puede apreciar su desarrollo y la motivación. También la actuación de los secundarios me pareció perfecta, en realidad la actuación de todos me pareció muy buena pero el guion me parece es el punto débil de este drama, siendo realmente objetivo lee min oh, quien era el actor que yo creí que iba a odiar, estuvo bien para el drama y su química con kim go eun me pareció hermosa.
los puntos más molestos para mi y por los cuales este drama no me pareció mejor fueron el guion, hay muchos adelantos de historia cuando termina el capitulo pero cuando arranca se devuelve todo y no todas las veces explican bien todo. Pero lo que mas me molesto es el "enamoramiento" porque si de kim go eun.... no es que odiaba a lee min ho pero de golpe como si fuera "magia" se enamora y acepta todo lo relacionado además de que fue todo de 0 a 100 en un segundo....
Creo que se pudieron desarrollar las cosas mucho mejor, mas que nada el inicio de la relación de los principales, se contaba con todos los recursos para poder costear el gigante proyecto que fue the king y si podes dejar pasar esos puntos negativos es un drama disfrutable pero si no podes dejar de notar estas cosas a medida que avanza, se siente como una incomodidad a medida que todo avanza.
