‘Queen of Iron Man’, who suffered from various controversies at the beginning of the broadcast, finally ended.
The tvN Saturday drama’Queen Iron Man’ (played by Park Gye-ok Choi A-il, director Yoon Seong-sik), which ended on the 14th, was a two-faced mid-fighter Kim So-yong (played by Shin Hye-seon) who became a Korean representative Huh Se-nam in an accident. This work depicts the scandal between the king Cheoljong (played by Kim Jeong-hyun). This is a remake of the Chinese web drama Prince Bi Seungjiki (太子妃升职记, 2015).
In the last episode of’Queen Iron Man’, Cheoljong expelled Kim Jwa-geun (played by Kim Tae-woo) and the Great Queen (played by Bae Jong-ok) and protected the throne. The soul of Jang Bong-hwan (Choi Jin-hyuk) who was in Kim So-yong’s body returned to Korea.
Kim So-yong and Cheol-jong had a happy ending.
‘Queen of Iron Man’ was well received for the comic acting of the leading actors and showed high audience ratings from the beginning. The first episode recorded an audience rating of 8% (Nielsen Korea) based on a nationwide paid platform, taking the second place in the TVN weekend drama’s first broadcast rating.
The’Queen of Iron Man’, who seemed to be triumphantly, climbed on the cutting board in controversy. First, the author of the original work’Prince Biseungjik’ of’Queen Iron Man’ was engulfed in a’disgusting controversy’ saying that he included content that depreciates Koreans in his previous work’Hwa Chin Princess’.
As if concerned about the controversy, PD Yoon Seong-sik said at the production presentation, “The original work was’Pete Biseungjik’, but when planning with the original copyright, only the setting that the soul of a modern man enters the queen’s body was brought. The rest of the story or storyline is completely different.”
Controversy over historical distortion has also been raised. In the second episode broadcast on the 13th, when Cheoljong (played by Kim Jeong-hyun) stayed away from Queen Cheol-in (played by Soyong, Shin Hye-seon) in bed, Queen Cheol-in said, “The reality of the king famous for its main color… The Annals of the Ancestral Dynasty are historical books that record the daily life and affairs of kings in the Joseon Dynasty for 472 years in order of year, month, and day, and have been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in recognition of their historical value. Viewers strongly opposed the point of degrading the value of the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty and expressing it as’jirashi’.
There were also points of insults by drawing the Joseon Dynasty royal family, Queen Shinjeong, as a superstitious character. Poongyang Jo’s Jong-Hui said, “Since the introduction of the character (Queen Shinjeong) has appeared as a’believing in all kinds of superstitions’ character, we were considering how to respond.” “No matter how comedy, but the insulting and vulgar expression of the real person is deeply regrettable, Will”.
Eventually, the production crew of’Queen Iron Man’ made an official position and apologized for various controversies. The production crew apologized, saying, “I had no intention of expressing negatively about historical characters and events,” and “I apologize once again for causing inconvenience, contrary to the intention to give a healthy smile.”
Even after apologizing, as if conscious of the controversy, the figures in the relationship diagram posted on the official website were revised from’Pungyang Condolence’ to’Pungan Condolence’ and’Andong Kimmun’ to’Ansong Kimmun’.
‘The Iron Man’ is a genre of’Fusion Sageuk Fantasy Comic’ that borrows characters and backgrounds from history, but’What if the modern soul meets a real person and causes a stir?’ It is a fiction based on creation that started from the imagination of.
Despite various controversies,’Queen of Iron Man’ succeeded in returning the hearts of angry viewers by showing a comedy full of unique B-class sensibility, including the main actors Shin Hye-sun and Kim Jeong-hyun, Bae Jong-ok, and Kim Tae-woo. ‘Queen of Iron Man’ has been able to reap’The Beauty of Yoojong’ through constant efforts to keep the promise with the viewers.
Meanwhile,’Vinsenzo’ starring Song Joong-ki will be aired following the’Queen Iron Man’.
