Queen Seondeok....




I wonder if all of the viewers of the historical K- Drama, Queen Seon Deok ( 선덕여왕 ) will ever see Gukseon Munno again on the series.I just saw Episode 7 tonight and in the episode, some members of the Hwarang, led by Bojong, (Mishil's son with Won-rang Cheol. Mishil is such an manipulative tramp! she has 3-4 sons by different men, all serving within King Jin Pyeong's cabinet!) were assigned by Mishil to secretly go to Yorae Temple in Manno County to assassinate Munno, the kindom's missing Gukseon.

Yorae Temple had been ransacked and every monk slaughtered in sight but still the Gukson was nowhere to be found. Princess Cheonmyeong (now also a monk) and Deok Man got there in the midst of the chaos. Bojong ordered for them to be killed as well but they ran away. They (Deok Man and Princess Cheonmyeong) were also caught byBojong himself but one of Lord Yong-chun's trusted Hwarang men, injured Bojong by an arrow. (Lord Yong-chun is the brother of Princess Cheonmyeong's deseased husband) Because of the strong impact of the arrow piersing Bojong, he pulled with him Deok Man and Princess Cheonmyeong. All three rolled off a stiff revine.

King Jin Pyeong heard the news of his daughter, Princess Cheonmyeong disappearing at Manno County and headed to Manno himself, with Mishil. (looking after her best interests as always! HUMPH!) An all out search was dispatched with the help of neighboring kingdoms until the Princess was found.

I love the confrontation between Princess Cheonmyeong and Mishil because the princess recognized Bojong while she and Deok Man werew being chased after. Mishil's face during that scene was just priceless. She was Bojong's mother after all regardless how vile and sinister she is.

THe next episode will be somewhat of a fast forward episode as all the characters grow up. After seeing the preview. I can tell she is still looking for Munno and will somehow end up in Princess Cheonmyeong's Hwarang. I wonder if the Princess ordered someone to look for her and be brought into the palace, hence her instatement into the Hwarang.
