However…their relationship does not just stop with sex…a passionate love blooms between the Queen and Hong Lim.
Creating a completely complex love triangle….

My thoughts:

*~WARNING!!!~*
May contain Spoilers!!!

And by ‘May’ I mean does!!! 

Now i’ve said this many time before: I hate love triangles…they ruin a perfectly good relationship…but honestly….I don’t hate anyone in this movie!
Shocking. I know!
I feel sorry for each of the 3 characters in a way….and I’m going to tell you why…

Hong Lim…the poor guy, he had no idea what he was doing most of the time. Ever since he was young the King had shown him nothing but love and kindness and then he asks him to go have sex with the Queen….surely you can see how that could be confusing!?
He cant help falling in love with the Queen

I feel sorry for the Queen because this poor woman just wants to be loved by someone…Unfortunately her husband cant love her the way she wants him to… Naturally you’d fall in love with the man who shows some sort of affection for you, 

And the King….you cant imagine how hard it must have been for him to ask his lover to have sex with his wife, but he did it for his kingdom..and i get that. Its completely understandable that he felt betrayed by Hong Lim when he finds out they are actually having a relationship.
Although i do feel the castrating him was a bit far…

On a slightly different note….Everyone’s hair looked fabulous! I loved it!

Overall it was a really good movie ^^
The sex scene between the King and Hong Lim was lovely, probably the most passionate scene I’ve ever seen in a BL movie ❤

I rate:
8/10

It says you have to be 18+ to watch this….which is a kick in the face, but i’m sure that can be overcome…hehhee xD
