i loved the red sleeve but i was so sad when she died. Her life was so hard :(. At first i couldn't understand why she didn't want to be a concubine to the man she loved but after seeing her life as a royal concubine i understood why.
I never understood why she asks him to pass her by in the next life but after this video I think I get it. Correct me if I'm wrong. I think if not for him, she would've ran far away without a second thought because she understood that palace life isn't for her. But her love for him, stopped her everytime. So even if she never told him she loved him, she kinda confessed her love for him here - had she never met him she would've never lived in the palace. But the love she had for him stopped her. In the next life, she asks him to pass by because if he ever stops her again, regardless it be the new life, she'll stay with him because she had always loved him.
What a sad ending,.. but the story tell about the life of a concubine , a powerless position, which is king's manly need , but in this story , it showed that he truly love deok im... Cannot be a queen becoz she doesnt belong to a noble family.... I really like the role of deok im , she has her own principle that even the king cannot over power... Very nice story... It breaks my heart in the end..... I love korean historical drama... Becoz im a historial by profession....
Concubine is NOT a powerless position in the Joseon Dynasty,in the late period maybe but certainly not in the early and middle period.You have to remember that there's an element of FICTION in these drama where several moments are interpreted as per the writer's wishes and dramatized to a certain extent.You can find examples of powerful concubines ruling the harem in this dynasty if you search for it
@@MrWinter6751 But that was only because after Queen Jang's demotion back to Hui Bin, King Sukjong decided to limit the power of concubines by making it impossible for them to enter the pool of selection should the need to select a new queen arise in the future. He made a law that prohibited any concubine to ever rise above their highest concubinage rank "Bin". That was not the case in the Early Joseon period like in King Seongjong's era where he appointed Yoon Suk Ui, Yeonsangun's mother, to be his second queen replacing the late Queen Gonghye. After Queen Yoon was deposed, he selected a third queen which also came from his pool of concubines, another Yoon Suk Ui, King Jungjong's mother, which would be known as Queen Jeonghyun in the future. There's also the famous femme fatale concubine of Yeonsangun while he was still in power, Jang Nok Su/Jang Suk Yong and King Injo's famed but notorious concubine believed to have had a hand in Crown Prince Sohyun's demise, Jo Gwi In. These are the example I was referring to when I was replying to the original comment. The decline of concubine power during the reign of King Jeongjo up to the Last king of Joseon dynasty only happened because Sukjong decided to put a brake on that and changed the law.
What a great edit, it sums up the tragedy of Deok Im's life in such an amazing way! Since it has only Deok Im's parts it shows the depth of her loneliness !
With suoerb acting of Lee Seyoung, I don't know how they judged and what criteria of Baeksang award, that even no vote was given to this very versatile acting. I have nothing against to the winner of Best Actress 👌 but not given a vote to LeeSeyoung is INSANE!!!
The tragedy is of the countless women; dokim represents lost to their fate, forced to be with someone who can never be only theirs. The women who would never taste what it is like to have freedom to make something of themselves.
The editing is really amazing, you potrayed Deok Im’s turmoil well. Though at 3:45 how I wish you included the part where Deok Im said the king will never be hers.
The meaning of asking me to pass by just brushing my collar can't be explained by just pretending not to know... It's a pity that the translation is...For reference, in Korea, there is a saying that even just brushing the collar is connected. Please understand that this is Google Translate.
Help to understand Korean history!! If she was the concubine only, what about the queen? Bc he love her more. The queen don't give to him a child? What history said about?👍
Yes..queen couldn't be pregnant... but yi san was so kind with her...bcs she was really kind with everyone specially deok Im!! One of the reasons that she rejected yi san Bcs she didn't want to trait to queen who was so kind with her
