 2009 DJG on Chinese channel
« Thread Started on Oct 20, 2009, 12:14pm »

Will this be 104 episodes, does anyone know? I'm watching the repeat of last night's right now, and it seems as if things are moving quickly. I wonder if it's been shortened. JG's foster mother just discovered that she's a girl, and that happened the first morning she woke up there, didn't it? By the end of this episode, she'll be in the palace.

I wish I remembered more of the political plotline and characters. Did someone try to poison the Crown Prince? Why would they label the bottles, if so? Or were the labels on the 4 bottles a political statement instead of liquor names or ingredients?

This is so good to see again, I don't mind a whole lot that I don't understand some of it. :D

ginnycat, aren't there 54 episodes? You can watch this at aznv.tv. and dramafever.com. Are you talking about the part where the prince becomes paralyzed and the physician blames the Head Cook (DJG's foster father)?

Oh, yes, thanks, it does have 54 episodes. Last night they showed ep. 5, with 6 tonight. It's on 5 nights a week!

Not that episode, with the ducks. It's while JG is a little girl and delivers liquor to the prince, and he reads the labels on the 4 bottles and is disturbed enough to sit there staring at them all day. Later there's a soldier on horseback and running soldiers followed by a mob with torches, who burn someone's house, and JG's foster dad does some looting. ? I just skip the political intrigues by the rich family and watch closely the palace activity.

So you aren't watching now? I wonder if I'm the only one. I think it's irresistible. :D

One of the kitchen girls, older than Jang Geum, is played by the same actress who was the high-school girl on The Road Home, that Suin's brother liked, GangsterAunt's daughter. Amazing that she still looks young enough to play a teenager, since she must have been a teen in 2003 when this first aired.

ginnycat, Sir Park sent Jang Geum with the wine bottles as a birthday gift for the Prince. Each bottle had a message on it and to "enjoy the taste the best, he should drink them in order". Jang Geum showed him the order they should be in, as she was instructed. After she left, the Prince figured out the meaning of the messages. The Prince said " Sir Park is plotting treason. I don't want to be the King when they succeed or be killed when they fail." He didn't know what to do.

Thanks, tinkerbell!

Now JG has met Sir Min. :-) I'm not sure she saw his face when she bandaged him, though, and realized that he's the one who saved her from the other guys. (Boy, I'm missing a lot. I'll have to read the old threads.)

They really have to stop meeting in the woods like that. ;) Those thugs always seem to be there at the same time. Jang Geum and Sir Min are both so attractive and kind. They'd make a nice couple. :) I doubt she noticed his face since she was so anxious to get that golden pheasant back. So tonight was episode 9, correct?

Episode 11

ginnycat, in case you don't remember everything from this episode.

Keum Young hid the "bad luck charm" given to her by Lady Choi in the kitchen. It was supposed to change the prince in the Queen's womb into a princess. ::) How silly. Jang Geum found her mother's notebook hidden in the same spot as the charm. Keum Young blamed the bad luck charm on Jang Geum and consequently she was locked up. Eventually Keum Young wound up in there too. Lady Jung, the Head Kitchen Lady wanted to turn them over to the police to find out the truth. Devious Lady Choi tried to save Keum Young and Lady Han (Jang Geum's mother's friend) tried to save Jang Geum. After the ever scheming Choi family hired witnesses to incriminate JG, Lady Jung decided to dismiss the incident. This was due to Lady Han pleading on JG's behalf, believing she was innocent and fearing she'd be killed. The others may have put Lady Jung in the position of Head Lady as a puppet but she's a woman of good character and doesn't bow to their wishes. The prince's arms and legs became paralyzed and since the physicians couldn't find the cause, they blamed the Head Chef's (JG's adopted father) duck porridge suggesting he had put poison in. He was taken away to be interrogated. After a little detective work, Jang Geum found out the cause was the combination of nutmeg oil and ginseng. She discovered this by trying it out on herself.

Thanks, tinkerbell! We're at the episode where JG failed the written final test but the Queen was impressed with her dumplings so she didn't get thrown out after all, but the imprisonment was shown in the previews. Those previews cover a lot of episodes. They would be spoilers if I hadn't already seen it. I don't know why they don't show just a few scenes from the next episode. [shrug]

I found some webpages about DJG. :D

I believe they cut it up into more than 54 eps, I thought there were 70 or something. Here:

All the 54 episodes of Jewel in the palace / DJG were aired (begining July 2009) in Romania, 5 day a week and the national television TVR currently broadcast (begining Oct. 2009) the Yi San with the same schedule.
Excellent actors !
Excellent music !
Excellent scripts !
Excellent directors !
Want some more...
i was wondering if both of them have the same script writter ?
Some romanians still wonder if the DJG really finished or if the YISAN is just the second part of DJG ... ;)
