Empress Ki (2013 - 2014)
Ha Ji-won, Joo Jin-mo, Ji Chang-wook, and Baek Jin-hee feature in Empress Ki, a historical romance. The 51-episode series started on MBC on October 28, 2013, and concluded on April 29, 2014. Despite the fact that Ji Chang-wook is not the main character in this series. You'll be astonished by the character he played in this series.
Ki Seung Nyang, a lady who rises to prominence against the constraints of the era's class structure, subsequently marries Toghon Temür (emperor of the Yuan dynasty) to become a Yuan empress, rather than her first love, Wang Yu. It displays Lady Ki's affections and political aspirations while highlighting the Emperor's strong love for her.
The first episode begins with Empress Ki and the Emperor kissing while Wang Yu watches on, followed by Empress Ki weeping in tears as Wang Yu departs the palace. This episode inspires viewers to think about how they got this far. Thus, Empress Ki begins by reflecting on how all three of them had gone through ups and downs in the past. To avoid viewers becoming confused, the message "certain people and places in the tale are fictional" is presented before the first few episodes air. As a result, this drama is based on a fictitious depiction of Empress Ki's life. At the same time, it is somewhat related to Empress Ki's history.
