1. If you watched Episode 5, you'd know that Lee Sanhae told Ryu about what Jeong Cheol is really after, which leads Ryu to say it's the first time he heard about it.
2. What you said about there being a drama about YSS already is exactly right.

I did watch episode 5, of course, and I know the reason why he said what he did. I still felt he didn't have to lie and say it was the first he heard of it. He could've just said he disagree with selecting a crown prince right now. That way he could've avoided being a liar.

If he disagreed, that would be a historical distortion and he would still be a liar to Jeong Cheol anyway since he already agreed with Jeong Cheol prior to meeting the king.

I am not blaming the writers for not changing history, I'm blaming Ryu himself for the way he behaved.
And if he simply said he disagreed he could be accused of being fickle maybe, cuz he could've changed his mind after agreeing with Jeong Cheol (which he did) but he would not have lied. But to say it was the first he heard of it... well no matter how you look at it, that's a lie. I just thought he was above that cuz he was so honorable and straightforward and so unlike a politician. I didn't think he was even capable of lying. So it came as quite a shock to me is all I'm saying.
But he did redeem himself later on when he answered to the king he didn't think Jeong Cheol should be investigated for drunkenness.

jewel I had the same reaction. It surprised me too...just seemed unlike him to flat-out lie like that. I'm glad they showed it factually accurate though.
