Jang Ok Jeong, Vive de Amor (2013)

A different side of Jang Ok Jung but the main character is of course, Dong Yi a palace maiden who has stolen the king's love.

This drama is mainly focused on Choi Suk Bin, but it potrays Jang Ok Jung too, but as the villain here

Both dramas tell the story of King Sukjong and his wives from totally different sides/perspectives. Royal Consort Choi's side is told on Dong Yi while Royal Consort Jang's side is told in Jang Ok Jung.

I feel that in both dramas the kings have the same nature. Also, in Jang Ok Jung the king falls for a palace maid whereas in Moon embracing the sun, the king falls for a shaman (both of a low class). Both love stories begin during childhood.

Features the same King Sukjong ( played by Yoo Ah in ), the next king son of Jang Ok jung and King Yeongjo , his other son

They are both about a romance between the king, and a lowly peasant who later becomes one of his concubines. There is also hate towards the main lead girl due to her low social status, and if you have seen Dong Yi, Yi San is King Sukjon's (the king in Dong Yi) which is also the king in Jang Ok Jung, is his great-grandson.

Main character is King Yeonho, son of the same King Sukjong ( played by Yoo Ah in ), & then proceeds as how his sons become the next kings & the rest of the story.

Both stories are about beautiful concubine Jang Hee Bin and how scheming and ambitious she is. However, Jang Ok Jung will be more cruel in Jang Hee Bin drama.

In both Jang Ok Jung and The Throne, we see Yoo Ah In playing a Joseon Royal. King Sukjong (Yoo Ah In's character in Jang Ok Jung) is also one of the main characters in Jang Ok Jung. This means that Jang Ok Jung is a show that might be enjoyed by The Throne fans since it has both Yoo Ah In plus the audience get to know more about King Sukjong (who is only barely mentioned in The Throne). One must keep in mind that Jang Ok Jung has a little twist in that it tends to be more sympathethis towards Sukjong's concubine Jang Ok Jung, who is more historically known as the more villainous concubine. Jang Ok Jung is the mother of the brother of Prince Sado's father, King Yeongjo.

Both dramas take place during the same time of history. Queen In-Hyun's Man is a time traveling drama, but the characters are the same and have a focus on the deposition of Queen In-Hyun.

both of the dramas are similar as the are period drama. The story line is different but each has it unique features.

- Both of the FLs are smart court ladies, who are seen as lowly, that end up gaining attention of the crown prince/king
- The ML in Jang Ok Jung is the great grandfather of the ML in the Red Sleeve
- Both of the FLs become concubines
- Tragic endings

The two are about a famous royal concubine who was known for her beauty and her cruelty
