The Great Queen Seondeok: I BRING CLIPS.
Aug. 22nd, 2012 10:45 pmSO. Remember that time I became completely obsessed with a kdrama about the first ruling queen of the kingdom of Silla in Korea?
Well, since I'm damn sure that upwards of two whole people might be interested in this, I MADE CLIPS. Fair warning, this spoils the shit out of the ten-ep stretch where the whole conflict between the hero and the villain explodes into open warfare. I figure that most of you who want to check this out either won't mind that, or will enjoy the idea of seeing the SUPER DRAMATIC EYEBROW SHOTS OF DOOM AND MILITARY COUPS without having to watch forty plus hours of telly first.
I mean, let's be serious, spoilerphobes, were you really going to watch it? Wait, you were? AWESOME, here's the link - http://www.hulu.com/the-great-queen-seondeok - the rest of you, TO THE CLIPS!
(There are like 15, so I put the 3 best ones outside the lj-cuts and bolded them. If in doubt, just watch those!)
( Our Players )
( Clip #1 )
Clip #2
Later part of the scene clipped above - Bidam attempts to convince his estranged, secret mother that since she's just realised she's spent a large part of her life chasing something smaller and more pointless than she could understand, she might as well have some sort of come-to-Jesus moment and be done with it. She doesn't really agree.
( Clips #3 - #10 )
Clip #11
So ultimately, it all comes down to this - one last summit before total war. I'll let it speak for itself.
( Clip #12 )
Clip #13
And then, Misil's final scene. I feel it's important to note here that she ultimately surrenders not because she's lost, militarily, but because a subordinate's decision has forced her into a position where success will irreparably weaken the nation's borders, and if that happens, at her hand, she has already lost in every way that matters.
