The story about Yeongjo of Joseon and his late son with all the controversies around them is a legit background for any artwork. This story has been portrayed by many, over and over again, and no one get bored. Sometimes, Yeongjo is the hero and Sado is at fault. And sometimes, we gotta know Sado's best while Yeongjo at dark.
The Throne deliver the history differently. Despite the unchanging fact, the PD made us see what drove both our hero apart. We got to see how much Yeongjo longing of a filial son and decent successor, as well as Sado loneliness and his hope for his father's affection. This movie shows us a brand new side of the history. Where no one's at fault. And the pain lies within their own expectation of each other.
The production team brought the best of the story with an awesome script writing and support the intense story with proper music job. All together make The Throne was so much painful yet satisfying for us. Thus, rewatching The Throne is a big no for me because I'm not sure I would okay if I experience the intense and painful story once again.
Acting-wise, what did you hope when Song Kang Ho, Yoo Ah In, and Moon Geun Yong filled your screen with such emotion in their eyes? Only tears left me. And I'm contented with it.
