hmmm...It sounds like that will be an actual prequel and not just giving us the backstory on a separate situation.
Whatever, thanks for the update, much appreciated. If you get a release date please do let us know. I usually don't subscribe to Netflix but I'll get that going again for the July 23 episode.
Oh wait, holy cow that's today! Okay let me get busy on that. I'll watch it over the weekend and will get a summary and a thread up for it. Sorry guys, totally snuck up on me.

Sorry-- just had to drop in and say your comment "Oh, wait, holy cow that's today" made me laugh so much I almost dropped my laptop (thanks, I needed that) On the other hand, looking forward to watching this.

Hey bird--nice to hear from you, hope you've been doing well and staying safe from the covid. Yeah as I was typing that post it started to get through the layers of bone in my head that "July 23" was sounding awfully familiar, and then I realized. Ugh things just catch up on you sometimes. So I'm a little behind--need to watch my EWG episode this week but I'll do the Kingdom thing first so hang in there with me.

I am always here lurking around -- I even read your EWG posts even though I am not watching it. I appreciate your descriptions of the show and all the added information. I can't imagine the time and talent it takes to do those posts. Looking forward to Kingdom and seeing everyone's posts.

Just watched the special episode that came out on 23rd. The episode serves as a prequel to the Kingdom series, so it's more like 0.5 rather than 2.5 from the title of this thread.
3 side characters from the previous 2 seasons appear in this drama.
2 characters from Season 1 and 1 from Season 2.
Won't say who they are cuz nobody likes spoilers lol

Looks like we won't be seeing Season 3 for a long time.
They'll be shooting another special episode called "Story of Crown Prince", which will cover Crown Prince's life before Season 1 and what he's been up to before meeting up with Ashin at the end of Season 2.

Seen the Ashin special. I give it a thumbs up.
Awww....no season 3 yet....
I speculate the reason for the specials is for season 3 to have more breathing room; if the backstories depicted in the specials were in season 3, they would have taken up half the series I think.

I've discovered the reason why there was no Season 3 this year(and most likely not next year)
Actors of 2 main characters from Kingdom were filming a new drama called Jirisan that started airing on tvN 2 weeks ago.
Writer : Kim Eunhee(Writer of Kingdom)
Ju Jihun(Crown Prince from Kingdom) as Kang Hyeonjo
Jeon Jihyeon(Ashin from Kingdom) as Seo Igang

This is a big surprise, considering Netflix has more money than God and Kingdom did so well for them. How the heck did tvN pull this one off?
But how about a season 3 starring Seobi? She could pull that off no problem. Good actress and a very sympathetic character. She was making that astronaut series for a while...well it's just wishful thinking. Whatever this new show is, it had better be darned good to justify stiffing Kingdom for it.
