      Yoo Ah-in genuinely bashed his head against the flagstones of the palace courtyard; the blood was his own.

    Great learning from the King and the Prince story
    Maybe, 40 minutes in the beginning little bit boring and slow, but must to watch until the end. I love how the plot told back-forward story, just watch the King's beard if you got confused hehe. This is drama of father and his son in the palace. The message that we can took from this movie is even though we don't believe to anyone, even as a King, please be nice to your own child.
