Princess Hours 궁

Based on a comic book series by Park Soh-Hee, "Princess Hours" has been the topic of a major media hype since its production started. Not only was the comic book series uncompleted, but many of those who admired the comic book watched eagerly to see how well the TV production would live up to the fame of the original book.

Set in modern-day Seoul, Palace is a fanciful re-imagining of Korea -- as a monarchy! Grand and beautiful, the Palace becomes the home to a group of young royals pulled into the political rivalries, comical hijinks, and romantic entanglements of palace life.

You might think that there's an exsisting monarchy in Korea. The Korean monarchy disappeared apparently during the japanese occupation. Goong is mainly a "what if" kind of story. What if there is a constitutional monarchy in Korea where the royal family is just a status symbol instead of a ruling power. They made reference to the British monarchy as a symbol for the people. Also they made reference to the British royal scandal between Prince Charles, Lady Diana and Camilla Parker Bowles.

This K-Drama series is worth the watch! The OST for the Princess Hours (궁) is nice, take a listen.. enjoy!
