YesAsia Editorial Description

Based on a popular comic book series, MBC's popular drama Palace fancifully re-imagines present-day Korea as a constitutional monarchy with a royal family. A beautiful palace, sitting in the heart of modern-day Seoul, becomes the home to a group of young royals pulled into the political rivalries, comical hijinks, and romantic entanglements of palace life. Sparks will fly when youth romance meets palace politics in this colorful romantic comedy!

Palace, a.k.a. Princess Hours, was hailed as "the future of Korea's TV drama Industry" by Variety magazine. The innovative premise, vivid cinematography, elaborate sets and costume designs, and fresh young cast charmed the audience, pulling in ratings of nearly 30 percent during its broadcast in Korea. Starring breakout stars Ju Ji Hoon, Yoon Eun Hae of Baby V.O.X., and Kim Jung Hun of UN, Palace was so popular the series was extended to 24 episodes from its original 20. In addition, a sequel is already in the works.

Shin (Ju Ji Hoon) may be the picture-perfect Crown Prince, but he is aloof and wary of his royal status. Commoner Chae Gyung (Yoon Eun Hye) is headstrong and outspoken, but fiercely loyal to her loved ones. Their worlds unexpectedly collide when an arranged marriage makes them husband and wife! It's not exactly "happily ever after" for this royal odd couple as they try to make sense of their relationship. Chae Gyung has trouble adjusting to palace life and Shin is still pining for his girlfriend Hyo Rin (Song Ji Hyo). Life gets even more complicated when Prince Yool (Kim Jung Hun) returns to the Palace to compete for both Chae Gyung's affection and the throne.

주어진 운명 앞에서 파락호의 삶을 꾸려가던 남자, 그가 바로 대한민국의 대통을 이을 황태자다. 그가 더 큰 시련을 만나고, 더 큰 사랑을 만나면서 스스로 권위를 발하는 황제로 성장해 가는 이야기다. 전통과 관습에 치를 떨던 남자는 그 굴레에서 벗어나기 위한 유일한 방법으로 정략결혼을 선택한다.

손끝만킁의 기대치도없던 그 결혼에서 남자는 "채경"이라는 한 여자를 만나면서 옷 속을 파고드는 빗물같은 변화의 과정을 겪게 된다. 뼈 아픈 자기성찰로 이루어진 이 변화를 통해 반항아인 줄만 알았던 소년과 철부지 소녀는 황실의 어른들이 이루어내지 못했던 황실의 개혁과 변화를 이루어낸다.

Good Drama Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I finally received it after about 3 weeks wait but I'm not complaining since I didn't mind how long, atleast it arrived I'm happy :). The packaging was simple but protected extremely well.

The DVD was region code 3 which I thought wasn't going to work on my DVD player since I previously had some region code 3 DVDs and they were invalid region codes for my DVD player. I guess they were little cheap ones sold on the streets to be honest ^^.

The Drama is extremely good and fun to watch again. The chemistry between Shin and Chae-kyung is extremely good and I hope that they would have a chance to cast in the same Drama in the future ^^.

I really felt that this Drama was worth the purchase to keep for life rather than watching it on Youtube or Video before but now it's been licenced :p.

As a previous reviewer said, the subtitles may not be the best in the world but they are extremely good in my opinion. Better than my previous purchase, Full House's subtitles.

charming crown prince Customer Review Rated Bad 7 - 7 out of 10
Yoon was extremely childish most of the time. I don't like Prince Lu but I was pleased when he took upon himself everything his mother did and eventually accepted his fate. Feel frustrated with the crown prince sometimes because of his coldness and pride but nevertheless you'll fall for him. The ending is alright but could have been better.
