Wow, thank you for finding the story of King Jeongjo & Lady Seong Uibin…
I skimmed through and read the parts of the King and his favoured concubine Uibin. Let me just say, if I have any luck left in this lifetime I hope I’ll be able to find someone who would love me as much as King Jeongjo loved Uibin. Like, WOW. I’m actually at a loss for words right now…
Uibin aka Deok Im must have saved great nations in her previous lives. Even though she was a concubine of humble backgrounds, she received the utmost precious love/care from the King. He didn’t even treat his Queen and noble concubines the same way. I honestly want to cry because their story is so romantic… There’s no modern day man like the King Jeongjo. You can hardly find a man that doesn’t insult you for rejecting him, these days. Uibin rejected the King TWO TIMES and he still respected and waited for her. How romantic is that?!
Anyway, let me stop rambling on and on… p.s. Don’t read the story if you don’t want spoilers. The drama does follow it a teeny tiny bit…
