On February 13, Cha Joo-Young, the protagonist of “The Queen Who” of Tving, sat for an interview with Gangnam, Seoul.
“The Queen Who Crowns” tells the story of Queen Wongyeong, who gained power together with her husband, the King Taejong Lee Bang-Won. Unlike previous historical dramas focused on King Taejong, this series reinvents the narrative from the perspective of Queen Wonkyung, offering a historical reinterpretation centered on women. From his first on January 6, the drama fascinated the public with his bold narration.
Personal reflections on the drama
When he was asked about his personal satisfaction for the drama, he revealed that Joo-Young, “To be honest, I remained in insulation during the transmission. I was afraid of reactions. I also had many personal regrets. “
He continued, “But I collected the courage to make this interview because I wanted to express my gratitude to the people who worked hard in this project. Despite the concerns, they supported us until the end and I am raised by the fact that the series ended with good assessments of spectators. “
Challenges and disputes
Cha Joo-Yung has also dealt with the various disputes surrounding “The Queen Who Crowns”, including concerns about historical accuracy before his liberation and the ray scenes R during his race.
“One thing I was sure was that if the spectators looked up to the following episodes, they would have understood what we were trying to get. I had confidence in the second half of the drama “, He said with caution.
He explained that, unlike the typical historical dramas with over 30 episodes, “The Queen Who Crowns” had only 12 episodes and a prequel in two parts, making it difficult to interpret a whole life. Given the well -known historical figures, the team made bold omissions, believing that it was not worth making a conventional reinterpretation.
Cha Joo-Young concluded, “This drama is not designed to serve as a historical lesson. If you look at it, they arouse interest, encourage spectators to learn more about history separately. I understand that my words may seem irresponsible or useless for some. However, these historical figures were real people. “
Recognizing potential criticisms of his position, he expressed his personal connection with the character, “I personally saw Queen Wongyeong as a deeply affectionate but tragic woman. If someone interprets his story in the future, I wanted to be that to do it. I just hope it is depicted well. “
