[The FactㅣReporter Saetbyeol Kim]' An incident has occurred that threatens the strong bond between Lee Jun-ho and Lim Yoon-ah in 'King the Land'
In episode 12 of JTBC's Saturday and Sunday drama 'King the Land' (written by Choi Rom, directed by Lim Hyun-wook), aired on the 23rd, Gu Won (Lee Jun-ho) and Cheon Sa Rang (Im Yoon-ah), who have touched each other's wounds and built solid feelings, are faced with a crisis called arranged marriage. The unexpected incident recorded a viewership rating of 11% (based on Nielsen Korea's national paid platform).
On this day, Cheon Sa Rang honestly confessed his feelings about Gu Won to his friends, saying, "You're the one I hope for." Gu Won always gives unchanging love. Cheon Sa Rang's happy smile when talking about Gu Won makes us guess the level of affection the two have for each other.
To that extent, Gu Won and Cheon Sa Rang love each other deeply in every moment, as if there are only two people in this world. To heal Gu Won's deeply ingrained mother, Cheon Sa Rang personally meets Han Mi-so's friend (played by Nam Gi-ae) and receives his photo.
Cheon Sa Rang goes to the beach with Gu Won whenever he misses his dead mother. Cheon Sa Rang looked out at the beach and said, "I'm on my way to mom," and handed Gu Won a picture of Han's smile. After hearing her lover talk about her mother, to whom she couldn't get an answer no matter how many questions she asked, Gu-won shed tears in silence because of complicated emotions. The image of Gu Won expressing repressed desires when walking on the heart path opened by Cheon Sa Rang made people feel sad.
However, as Gu Won and Cheon Sa Rang's love deepens, the roles the two have to take on begin to increase. Gu Hwa Ran (played by Kim Seon-yeong) with this current status, the possibility of doubting the relationship between Gu Won and Cheon Sa Rang will increase. Cheon Sa Rang can't get rid of the feeling that her existence has become an obstacle, and Gu Won is even more dissatisfied with Gu Hwa Rag, who always mentions her mother in everything and puts Cheon Sa Rang down.
Worse yet, she went to work at the house of president Gu Il-hun (played by Son Byung-ho), she was cast in the Dream Team, and when she heard about Gu Won's arranged marriage, she foresaw a crisis in their feelings. Gu Won also added to his anxiety by acting confused when he saw Cheon Sa Rang there. Too surprised by the news of his marriage, Cheon Sa Rang dropped the plate and a suffocating silence stretched on the chair.
Therefore, people are curious whether Gu Won and Cheon Sa Rang, who have overcome countless difficulties together, will be able to blossom in love once again on the thorny new path they encounter.
