‘Gogeojeon’ Will the original author’s resentment be overcome and the box office hit the box office? Lee Sia takes power out of Kim Dong-jun’s place [Oh!Shen Issue]

[OSEN=Reporter Choi Yi-jeong] Lee Sia from the ‘Khitan War of Goryeo’ takes the place of Kim Dong-jun, who is between life and death.

In the 19th episode of KBS 2TV’s epic drama ‘Goryeo Khitan War’ (written by Lee Jeong-woo/directed by Jeon Woo-seong, Kim Han-sol/produced by Monster Union and Viv Studios), a special project for the public broadcaster’s 50th anniversary broadcast on the 20th, Empress Wonjeong (played by Lee Sia) is defeated by King Hyeonjong (played by Kim Dong-jun).) is left unconscious due to a falling horse accident, Empress Wonjeong (played by Lee Sia) plots a plot with Eugene (played by Jo Hee-bong).

King Hyeonjong, who had previously declared war against Goryeo’s noble families for local reform, dismissed Gang Gam-chan (played by Choi Soo-jong), who rebelled against his will. Gang Gam-chan submitted an appeal requesting the impeachment of Kim Eun-bu (Cho Seung-yeon), who advocated for local reform along with the emperor, and Hyeonjong, who was extremely enraged, ordered Gang Gam-chan, who had disobeyed his orders, to leave Gaegyeong immediately and then fell from his horse, ending the tension. presented.

In the still released today (19th), Wonjeong, who has entered the royal palace on behalf of King Hyeonjong, who is on the brink of death, is investigating whether Kim Eunbu is guilty. From the sight of her straightening her back and looking at her ministers with sharp eyes, one can sense her determination to have Kim Eun-bu impeached.

Meanwhile, Eugene, who has gained momentum by joining hands with the empress, seeks a plan to reveal Kim Eun-bu’s crimes in detail so that even if the emperor wakes up in the future, he will not be able to grant indulgence.

Jang Yeon-woo (Lee Ji-hoon) is faced with a choice due to Hwang Bo-yui’s (Jang Jang-seop) request to defend Kim Eun-bu. Attention is focused on what choice Jang Yeon-woo, who has been struggling after promising to share the will of King Hyeonjong and Kim Eun-bu, will make after much deliberation.

The production team of ‘Goryeo Khitan War’ said, “In episode 19, Wonjeong, who has been opposing local reform, takes advantage of the emperor’s absence from the royal palace to conspire with Yujin and even volunteer to interrogate criminals, which is unprecedented, throwing Gaegyeong into chaos once again. “We ask for your interest as the story will unfold in a thrilling manner due to the tense confrontation between the empress and the ministers that arises due to the unexpected rise of the emperor.”

Previously, the original author of ‘Goryeo Khitan War’ garnered attention by expressing dissatisfaction with the way the drama unfolded.

Points continued to be raised about the collapse of Hyeonjong’s character and the lack of proper historical research. In particular, Gil Seung-soo, the original author of ‘Goryeo Khitan War’, said, “Of course, Hyeonjong’s (Kim Dong-jun) falling from a horse depicted in episode 18 of KBS2’s ‘Goryeo Khitan War’ is not part of the original story. “He said, “I should have been fully aware of the historical facts and received sufficient advice before writing the script, but I don’t think I was fully familiar with them. After the script writer was replaced, I did not receive any advice except for the battle scenes, so I do not know the exact internal situation. It seems that the script writer is deliberately trying to avoid the original work and write his own work. As he tries to avoid the original work, it is thought that he is also avoiding the history within it. “It’s hard to believe that someone like this would write a historical drama for the public broadcaster KBS,” he pointed out.

Writer Gil also said, “I explained Hyeonjong’s character well to the production team, but in the end, the script writer used it however he wanted and this led to this failure. They are making a fool out of someone who can be considered the most famous soldier in Korean history. The KBS original contract was not only for the published ‘Goryeo Khitan War: Heroes of Goryeo’, but also for ‘Goryo Khitan War: Battle of Europe and China’, which is currently being written. ‘Goryeo Khitan War: Battle of Europe and China’ was provided to KBS with about 400 pages and contains the post-war restoration after Yang Gyu’s death. “I hope that the drama will soon escape from being third-rate,” he said.

Viewers who expressed similar sentiments as writer Gil Seung-soo also said, “Please make it properly like you did until episode 16,” “Please research history properly and make it true,” and “There must have been many other ways to express that Hyeonjong was an immature emperor.” It was a disappointing reaction. On the other hand, there are quite a few viewers who are glad that they can take a deeper look into Hyeonjong’s reforms.

Meanwhile, KBS2’s ‘Goryeo Khitan War’ airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9:25 p.m.
