how does queen Jindeok appear here? I mean what is the reason the drama makes her appearance at this time and not a bit earlier? I wonder what is the use of this fictional character Yeonwha. It was said she loved Beopmin but she kept running between him and Bidam, she also tried to harm Chunchu and even the Queen... Finally, what is all her character about? Also, in episode 50 why does Chunchu come to Tang for? And why did he come to Japan in the previous 10 episodes?

Have not seen that far but from history ,although Japan was still 3 centuries away from becoming a military power ,they did have their nautical tact together and had the best navy among the various powers . But Japan had an alliance with Baekje through marriage with the Royal houses so at a guess Chunchu may have been getting them to switch sides .

Yeonhwa didnt try to harm Chunchu and QSD. I dont know how far you watched but if you watched up to ep49 you would know that it was all set up by Yeonhwa Chunchu and Queen to trick the enemies. Chunchu came to Tang to get Tang on Shilla's side and he went to Japan for same reason. However Chunchu went to Japan during Jindeok's reign in history not Qsds reign like the drama.

Was it Seonduk to Jindeok to Chunchu? QSD implies it's Seonduk to Chunchu...

truth: Thanks. I'm up to episode 50 now and having misunderstood lots of things. Btw,the drama makes Alcheon becomes bad guy is quite appalling! Was it Seonduk to Jindeok to Chunchu? QSD implies it's Seonduk to Chunchu... The first one is right, it was queen Seondeok to queen Jindeok and to Chunchu(king Muyeol) since his status was unable to succeed the throne directly.

Thanks HungV, it's confusing. These dramas play around so freely with timelines, it's a surprise to me that someone hasn't already said that Seonduk was married to Jeongjo. LOL...

Qsd drama only has about 1 percent history so dont trust anything from that drama. Chunchu already had a son-in-law during qsd's reign and he was not a teenager like the qsd drama

Actually, truth, he looks like a teenager the entire time. He must have found that old fountain of youth... ;D

Episode 51 Spoilers
Drama : Kim Yushin began hating Chunchu for becoming Tang's dog History : Kim Yushin supported Chunchu all the way
Drama : Kim Yushin and Gyebaek become best friends History : They werent friends
I used to hate Shilla for bringing Chinese troops in order to bring down Baekje and Goguryo but I understand Kim Chunchu now. South Koreans live under constant threats from NK and we hate the north even though we are all Koreans. South Koreans need America as ally. It must have been same for Shilla. Shilla lived under constant threats from Baekje and Goguryo so the fact that they were all Koreans wouldnt have meant anything. Shilla needed Tang in order to survive.
Anyways its interesting how CSJ goes from a Tang hating Goguryo Warrior(DJY) to a pro-Tang Shilla man who uses Chinese power to attack Baekje.

That does make sense from Shilla's perspective and without Tang they did face elimination from the other Kingdoms .
Is CSJ going to leave the drama before the end ?,at one point the writers were going to speed things up and move onto his son due to his injuries .

Korea seems to have a pattern of having what would be seen as "big brother nations"

Episode 52 Spoilers
Queen Jindeok is dead and KCC is finally King Muyeol.
Alcheon got in trouble for secretly allying with YGSM(which is historically false), but I don't understand why that's considered "treason" while KCC becoming buddies with Chinese emperor is considered good.

Hi Truth, I just returned from Europe & a bit jet lag also see some new things to board...in few days will see what is going on...for now,my son&I watched Great Kings dream via computer in Europe wed are not as technical as some of you on board but simply enjoy the drama & if you recall from my previous posts Choe Soo Jong my favorite actor so am happy to watch.
I have a question, I noticed on board you are up to episode 52??? where & on which media are you watching?? we got to EPO.40 & have been waiting for 41 but AFTER EPO 40 everything as of today 4/8/13 Monday it still says RAW & thru 50 or 51?? all still show as RAW.
I believe it's due to whoever does the English translations that it takes sooooo long for the next EPO. to be on.
Truth,if you have a chance can you give me any info??? my son still in Europe (he lives there (Germany/Holland) but we watched it from there.
Many thanks warm reguards Me (jolson1933)
