Recently, because of the popularity of the second season of "Kingdom", I am also interested in watching the first season. I always feel that Korean films are the most successful outside of Hollywood to learn from Hollywood, and the most innovative combined with their own national cultural themes. The details of the opening part of the first season of "Kingdom" can be seen in the charm of enlarged details such as "A Song of Ice and Fire", "Black Sails" and "Pacific War". The whole film grafts the Eastern "Gong Dou" genre films with the Western "Zombie" genre films, and shoots a unique story. Today, many people are enthusiastic about this Korean drama, but it is also because this drama has a strong sense of substitution with the reality we are currently living in.
At the beginning of the plot of the TV series, Wang became a political zombie. As a foreign relative group, the Zhao family controlled the government. Wang was hidden in the deep palace like a mummy. Although he has become a zombie, as long as he can still move, it is still the whole system. the core of power, which is characteristic of the Eastern absolutist system. The Zhao family, who are foreign relatives, plan to conceal the king's illness for a month, and replace the current heir-born son with the heir-born son in the queen's belly. This naturally aroused the dissatisfaction and fear of the princely group whose status was not guaranteed. The power struggle within the ruling group has entered the most critical white-hot stage.
