Raja Lee Seong Gye nggak bisa apa2, manut aja sama dia,,,
Jo Joon sampai bilang ke Sambong musti hati2 jangan sampai corrupt gara2 kekuasaan,,,
dan lagi2 perjuangan Bang Won di Ming nggak dihargai,,,

klw Sambong dari awal menghargai ide Bang Won,,,
ku yakin nggak ada perselisihan kayak begini,,,

@anthea, wkwkwk ada 2 yg gw peratiin dilakuin JDJ ke BW :
1) JDJ nuduh BW egois & brutal, bukannya dia jg gt? dulu JDJ bs bikin jendral CY, LIG, HIB, JMS smua dieksekusi trus abis JMJ meninggal, JDJ jg buru2 minta LSG bkin isu JMJ pengkhianat trus palanya JMJ digantung di jalan. Si BW jg ngebunuh krn kepepet, wkt bunuh 3 sadaebu jg kepepet diancem, wkt bunuh JMJ kepepet krn JDJ cs mo dieksekusi sm JMJ, tar bunuh dedek2 bocil jg kepepet krn mo dibunuh sm JDJ. Klo ga kepepet ga bakalan BW maen bunuh, contohnya pas kakaknya si Bang Gan pimpin brontak 2nd strife tp toh ga dibunuh sm BW, cm diasingkan aja. JDJ ini kt gw ngelakuin bullying character ke BW wkwkwk Intinya org ngebantu tp diinjek terus gmn ga kesel trus naek darah? Apalg BW sifatnya ambisius en ga trima dilecehin. Pdhl JDJ sbnrnya nikmatin jg hasil yg dilakuin BW.
2) JDJ nuduh BW haus kekuasaan trus dia skrg apa donk? JDJ jd perdana mentri hampir smua aspek, yg buat kebijakan jg dia, raja tinggal acc doank, trus skrg mo nguasain militer pula n mo invasi Liaodong, ntar Ming marah baru tau rasa dia wkwkwkwk. kt gw BW tdnya ga mao deh jd raja, dia jd mkin ambisius gegara 5syarat si JDJ (kluarga krajaan cm jd boneka), tmbh terpicu lg efek dibully mulu n skrg JDJ jd penguasa tunggal.
peratiin ga ep43 edisi kangen2an BW ke MH, BJ ke MH, tuh so sweet bgt, chem mrk jauh lbh sweet drpd sm si BY.
eeh samaa, ya ampuuun akirnya ye royal couple bobo bareng, biarin deh si BY dpt penjepit rmbut (mgkn BW blgnya dibkin sm org terkenal, sptau dia cm beli di pasar wkwkwkwk) tp LM mah dapet sebodi2nya BW wkwkwkwk btw ntah napa gw suka si GSY sm YAI nih, GSY kmaren posting BW ngamuk LM slingkuh ama guru hong, liat deh gayanya YAI kocaaak...

envio udah ada belum historical background episode 43-44??,,,

[enVio]

The historical background to help understand Ep. 43~44


■ Was Yi Bang-Won mistaken as the Crown Prince in Ming China?
Yes, it is historically true. According to the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty (November 19, 1394), Yi Bang-Won was warmly received by the Ming Emperor and Ming courtiers called Bang-Won “The Crown Prince of Joseon” and respected him.
However, it is a fiction that Joseon envoys including Ha Ryun were tortured for that matter after they returned to Joseon. Therefore, Bang-Won’s one-man-show to beg for the Crown Prince’s forgiveness is also a fiction.


■ Jo Young-Gyu (조영규 趙英珪 ?~1395)
Historically, Jo Young-Gyu should have died of an illness 2 months after Bang-Won came back from Ming China. But he looks quite healthy at this point in time. Maybe the writers decided to ignore the history to make him live longer? Or, they will make him killed by someone sooner or later? I’m not sure.
Actually, there existed a warrior by the name of Jo Young-Moo (조영무 趙英茂 1338~1414) in Yi Seong-Gye’s private army. They had similar names but they were no relation. Jo Young-Moo also joined to kill Poeun Jung Mong-Joo on Seonji bridge along with Young-Gyu.
Here is my guess. Maybe, the SFD writers mixed those two different historical figures into one character? It was just my speculation, but  the SFD writers have a precedent to blend 3 different historical/mythical figures into one character in Queen Seondeok (2009, MBC). Lord Bidam (the prime minister who revolted against Queen Seondeok of Silla) was mixed with Hwarang Bi-Hyeong (the son of King Jinji who took control of ghosts and evil spirits) and Ji-Gwi (the peasant boy who had an unrequited love for the queen).
Therefore, I think it is possible for the writers to mix Jo Young-Gyu with Jo Young-Moo. I love his character in SFD, so I don’t care about this history distortion. (LOL)


■ Gwon Geun (권근 權近, 1352~1409)
Yangchon (양촌 陽村) is his pen name. Gwon Geun was Yi Saek’s pupil and Jung Mong-Joo’s colleague. However, he joined Team Yi Bang-Won and used his excellent diplomatic ability to drive Jung Do-Jeon into a corner. 


■ Jung Do-Jeon’s Military Reforms 사병혁파 (1396)
As you’ve seen in SFD, Goryeo‘s military system was a mess. Most of the Goryeo troops had consisted of private armies (사병 私兵) possessed by nobles ever since the corrupt military regimes and Mongol’s colonial rule. Yi Seong-Gye’s Gabyeolcho (가별초 家別抄) was also one of those private armies. The number of government army was a minority. The private armies were drafted in case of war, but no noble man wanted to give his property for free. Goryeo government should give compensation to the nobles who sent their private armies, but the state coffers were often empty. That’s why Hong In-Bang suggested “War Sale” in episode 4, which led to another serious social problem.
Even after Joseon was founded, the endemic problem of the military system was still deep rooted. In 1396, Jung Do-Jeon finally decided to tackle this issue. He tried to dissolve all private armies in the country and to unify the military system. It was a necessary procedure to establish a centralized government system.
Of course, there was strong backlash against his military reform, especially from princes including Yi Bang-Won. The princes thought they would get into a desperately dangerous situation without the private armies’ protection. Such a fear led to The first strife of Princes (1398).
Ironically, even though Yi Bang-Won was Sambong’s biggest opponent, he carried out exactly the same military reforms once he killed Sambong and seized the power. In other words, Bang-Won concurred in Sambong’s reforms, but he had a different view about who should carry out the reforms. Yes, it should be Bang-Won himself, not any one else.


Jund Do-Jeon (JDJ) : Do you have plans for this country other than mine? Do you have different views for this country? Or do you have other ideas for how the system should run?
If you become the king, knowing how you are, you will try to hold authority over personnel affairs, and you will take care of officials in your own hands. You will make similar excuses as me by saying that you don’t have other options for the country’s establishment. Those are only slightly different from my plans. Am I not wrong?
Yi Bang-Won (YBW) : Everything you said is right, Master.
JDJ : You don’t have any different ideals for this country. It is just your will to accomplish it for yourself. Your intentions are selfish personal dream. That’s what it is.
YBW : What if it’s personal?
JDJ : The role requires you to present the people and have no bias. How could I say your are right.
YBW : If the ideals are same, then I can do them as well. Why does it have to be Bang-Seok?
JDJ: You’ve strayed away from the path for too long.
YBW : Yes. I’ve strayed away from the path. It’s been crooked and broken. So I won’t care about what path I take. I’ll just strive towards achieving my dream.


■ Q & A

Q. Was Jo Joon a historical figure? Did he serve Bang-Won when he became King Taejong?
Yes, Jo Joon (조준 趙浚, 1346∼1405) is a historical figure. Jung Do-Jeon, Jo Joon, Nam Eun were called the top 3 ministers during King Taejo’s reign. Jo Joon survived from the First strife of Princes and served King Taejong (Yi Bang-Won), but his political power was not so strong during King Taejong’s reign.

Q. Is it true Lady Min hid weapons in Banchon?
It is historically true that Bang-Won’s wife (Lady Min) secretly hid weapons. They became a big help for Bang-Won in the First Strife of Princes. However, it is not sure if the weapons were hidden in Banchon.

Q. How many children does Bang-Won have by this point in time?
It is 1395~1397 in episode 43~44. At this point in his life, Yi Bang-Won had 3 sons and 3 daughters from his lawful wife (Lady Min), and one son from his servant concubine (Lady Kim).

The historical background to help understand Ep. 45~46



■ King Gongmin, and Sambong’s Constitutional Monarchy

Jung Do-Jeon : When I was 15, King Gongmin punished the powerful quislings that benefited from Yuan Empire, and I saw him driving out Yuan. During my entire childhood, I watched their despotism. How do you think I felt when they were driven out? I felt like my heart was going to burst. After witnessing that, I pestered my father to send me to Sungkyunkwan. And there I met King Gongmin, and I dreamt of that for the first time. The dream of managing Liaodong.
Yi Bang-Ji : So, he gave you the dream.
Jung Do-Jeon : He did. Dream…. Dream may seem like hope in life. But in fact, it is rather like a comfort. For me, that’s who he was.
Yeon-Hee: You were that person for me, at that time.
Jung Do-Jeon : Was I? I am thankful that I comforted you.
This conversation reminds me of Episode 2 where little Bang-Won watched Jung Do-Jeon singing the “Muiiya” song composed by King Gongmin. Little Bang-Won talked to himself “That man is Zantgar (the strongest man)!” and entered Sungkyunkwan to become a scholar like him. From that moment, Jung Do-Jeon became an idol for Bang-Won, as King Gongmin had become an idol for 15-year-old Jung Do-Jeon.
As Bang-Won is heartbroken by his idol right now, Jung Do-Jeon must have fallen into despair when his idol turned into a lunatic after losing his beloved wife. The clever and capable king who used to be Jung Do-Jeon’s dream and comfort had become his worst nightmare. I already explained about the king’s transformation in “Kings of Goryeo in pre-SFD” and “Traitor Kim Yong, Joseon-era interpretation”
I think that’s why Jung Do-Jeon came up with the Constitutional Monarchy. After witnessing the fall of the greatest monarch, he couldn’t trust a system swayed by one ruler’s capability any longer. Therefore, he decided to make a system that doesn’t get affected by whether the king is clever or not.
It explains why Sambong ruled out Bang-Won in SFD. Bang-Won is not good enough to lead the country? Sambong just doesn’t want a king to be clever? No way. Actually, if it had not been for the murder of Poeun on Seonji bridge, Sambong in SFD might have gladly accepted Bang-Won’s kingship. The bloody murder made Bang-Won the least favorite candidate for the ruler of his ideal Confucian nation where all politics must be based on benevolence.


Bang-Won’s unrequited love for his master will end tragically next week. Like Yeon-Hee told her master Cho-Young in ep. 41 :

“The end of life is death anyway. Even if your dream is never going to come true, you get to have a dream while you are living. How nice is that?”

This could be Sambong’s dying words, too. When Sambong is saying “I’m exhausted, Bang-Won-ah” in ep 47 preview, his expression looks relieved and comfortable. He must have no regrets for his life.



■ The First Strife of Princes (August 26, 1398) - Part. 1
It is also known as Mooin Jeongsa (무인정사 戊寅定社, meaning “The rebellion which took place in the year of Mooin (1398) to rectify the wrong political situation”).
By all appearances, it looks like the princes’ righteous protest against Prime Minister Jung Do-Jeon’s evil deeds. But the truth is… it was the princes’ coup to drag their father down by killing the king’s right-hand man, Jung Do-Jeon.
There are various issues involved with this coup such as the Crown Prince installment, the exemption of royal family from the list of Founding contributors, the abolishment of private armies, Liaodong expedition, and the matter of Constitutional monarchy vs. Absolute monarchy. Here is the summary of their arguments.

    Primogeniture : The legitimate eldest son should become the Crown Prince instead of Bang-Seok.
    Pro-Ming China : The Liaodong expedition should not be allowed even if Joseon is being humiliated by Ming China.
    Anti-military reforms : Don’t take the private armies from us!
    Absolute monarchy : The prime minister overpowering the king is unacceptable.
    The princes and the royal family should get credit for their contribution to the establishment of Joseon.

In short, the royal family’s accumulated anger for the king and Lord Sambong finally exploded because of the new Liaodong expedition and military reforms. They killed Jung Do-Jeon, Nam Eun, Shim Hyo-Saeng, Crown Prince Bang-Seok, and his brother Bang-Beon. King Taejo (Yi Seong-Gye) was also dragged from the throne in the form of abdication. 
The detailed process of this coup will be explained next week.



■ The Participants in the First Strife of Princes - Princes
The leader was Prince Jeongan / Bang-Won (정안대군 이방원 靖安大君 李芳遠).
His elder brothers Prince Hwaean / Bang-Gan (회안대군 이방간 懷安大君 李芳幹) and Prince Yikan / Bang-Ui (익안대군 이방의 益安大君 李芳毅) joined later. SFD showed us only two out of the three princes.
Prince Youngan / Bang-Gwa (영안대군 이방과 永安大君 李芳果) didn’t participate in this coup. The filial son was praying for his father‘s speedy recovery in Sogyeokseo (소격서 昭格署 : a shaman’s place in the palace) not even knowing what was going on. When he heard that a revolt broke out in the palace, he attempted an emergency escape and had been hiding in his retainer’s residence until the coup was finished.
In the chaos of the coup, Bang-Won asked his half brother Prince Muan / Bang-Beon (무안대군 이방번 撫安大君 李芳蕃) to join them in a hurry. Bang-Won already knew that Bang-Beon was not happy about the king’s decision to hand the Crown Prince title over to Bang-Seok. Bang-Beon declined Bang-Won’s offer, but he didn’t inform his father or Bang-Seok of this coup, either. He chose to remain as a bystander, but such a selfish decision cost his own life in the end.



■ Minbon (민본 民本 “The people are the roots of the nation”)
Jung Do-Jeon : After all, I failed to solve one problem.
Boon-Yi : Pardon?
Jung Do-Jeon : While designing this country, I thought a lot, but… Communication with the people. I haven’t solved the problem.
Boon-Yi : Well… Are the people really the roots of the nation?
Jung Do-Jeon : ……!
Boon-Yi : I’m sorry. I happened to be at Jungryunam cliff.
Jung Do-Jeon : In the heart of Sadaebu politicians, the people should be the roots. That’s what I meant. But until the people become the roots and center of the world, it will take a long time. 
Boon-Yi : Why is that?
Jung Do-Jeon : The people are in charge of production. They don’t have spare time. They are too busy to enlighten themselves. Some of them do learn to read and write, but for most of them, it is simply impossible.
Boon-Yi : If you keep thinking about it, someday you’ll solve that problem as well.


    Tree with Deep Roots Episode 11
    King Sejong : I heard this place (Jungryunam cliff) is where Jung Do-Jeon did a seminar. Under here, the students crowded and listened to his lectures.
    Garion : Your Majesty, I don’t know any of these things, and the students just brought wine and meat here….
    King Sejong : The reason why I brought you here is because I believe at least Sambong would understand the command I gave you. I’ve read his book over and over again. This is the conclusion that I got from it. Everyone will say that it is against Neo-Confucianism (성리학 性理學), but only Sambong would have agreed with me.


    Tree with Deep Roots Episode 15
    Kang Chae-Yoon : Ha! If the new letters are released, do you think that the people will get to know the letters? Since the nobleman‘s job is studying, they can memorized 50,000 Chinese characters. Yes! I know at least 1000 characters. But do you know how hard it was to learn them? Since I’m not smart? No. Because there is no time to learn! That is the life of commoners! If they want to feed themselves, they have to get up before the dawn and work until night without straightening their back all day long. When can they learn the letters?
    Prince Gwangpyeong : You haven’t tried the new letters yet. You can do it!
    Kang Chae-Yoon : It took me so long to learn 1000 characters among 50,000 characters. Then, learn them? How many characters are there in His Majesty’s writing? Five thousands? Or Three Thousands characters?
    Prince Gwangpyeong :  Just 28 characters!


Tree with Deep Roots Episode 18
King Sejong : Look at the previous dynasty, Goryeo. The political system rotted like stagnant water is bound to corrupt. The Goryeo nobles were annihilated by Sadaebu.
Choi Man-Ri : The current Joseon is different from Goryeo! Not to repeat the negativities of Goryeo, instead of Nepotism, we pick the officials through the civil exams.
King Sejong : But how are you tested on the exams? You take the tests in Chinese characters that only you Sadaebu can learn and know! Even though a commoner can take the test and become a government official too, in truth, only those who know Chinese characters can become a government official! At this rate, in a hundred years, children of concubines will be prohibited from taking the tests. And in two hundred years, only noble class can take the tests, and in three hundred years, you can buy and sell the noble births!
Choi Man-Ri : Your Majesty!
King Sejong : Joseon will fall into tetany and that harmful effect will become more severe by the day. Look at history! Isn’t every nation’s history like that? Hence, as a strategy to overcome the harmful effect, as a small hope, I created the letters.

4eps lg bkal kangen sm karakter2nya SFD, slh satunya Bangji <3


sampe dibkin visualnya, when your fan becomes your biggest anti-fan, that is BW to his idol JDJ. wkwkwkw

yes aku dah bisa posting image lg hahaha,,,,
lupa aku gimana caranya,,,

gila dah, episode 47 membuat jantung aku berdebar2 nggak karu2an,,,
Keren banget BangWon mulai strife nya cuma berdiri di depan api unggun dengan wajah bengis,,,
biarin kakaknya bunuh habis antek2 Sambong dan dia cuma bakar kertas nama yang mati,,,
kasihan banget Bangji, setelah 47 episode dia baru sempat cium2 YeonHee dan pelok2,,,
5 menit kemudian matilah Yeon Hee,,,
cuma kok ya kelamaan adegan Bangji-Yeonhee ini,,,
keburu antek sambong mati semua hahaha,,,,

detik2 Bangwon nunggu di depan Sungkyungkwan terus Sambong kasih surat suruh diem,,,
Bangwon ketawanya kayak orang sinting banget,,,,
Dan hebatnya Sambong tetep tersenyum pas ditusuk pedangs,,,,
dan beliau teringat sohibnya, Po Eun,,,,
kelihatan banget stress nya Bangwon setelah bunuh Sambong,,,
aku lega walau Boon Yi ada di sana tapi dilewatkan begitu azah ama Bangwon hahaha,,,,
Eps 48 crown prince dead,,,,
kasihan padahal mukanya lugu banget,,,,
bahkan pas Bang Seok mohon ampun,,,,
Bangwon sampai bilang dosa aja kamu nggak ada, apa yang mau diampuni,,,,sadis,,,
Dan ketika Raja arahkan pedang ke Bangwon,,,,
Bangwon masih bisa2nya tetap tersenyum bengis,,,,
chuk sa gwang kembali lagi,,,
jangan2 mau balas dendam kematian mantan raja dan anak kecil yang nggak sengaja terbunuh itu,,,,
OMAIGAD mosok ini semua harus cuma 3 episode lagi ajah,,,,
nggak sabar daku nuntun nanti malaaam,,,,
satu hal lagi kok kakak banggwa nggak ikutan strife ya???,,,,

Done episode 48.. rally dari 44 ke 48...

gw team JDJ di seri 46-48 .. hahhah.. walau dia kalah karena kelicikan kebusukan ketamak-an diri nya bang won..

walau JDJ pada akhir nya dia yg jadi central .. itu gara2 bang won yg bunuh moonjon..  kl nga si moon joon itu yg central kan....  plus dia jadi central kayanya ga ada masalah gmana.. yg ada orang- orang 'SIRIK' aja....

ai nga ngeti politik2 an...

Trigger bang Won jadi gini menurut gw AMBISI nya dia  .. sodara2 nya ikut2an dia juga ga seneng karena nga ada power ... sirik haus kekuasaaan ...

gw dari awal sampe seri 44 an gw d tengah2 JDJ ama BW.. tp pas dia kill sambong .. hmmm.. thats it.. choose JDJ walau dia kalah .. hohoh...

at least JDJ tidak pernah sampai mau bunuh BW ( sejauh gw tangkep ) .. walau mendekati d bunuh waktu dia d kirim ke MING ( tp bapak nya aja setujuh.. heheh )

banji kaciaannn amattt... Yeon Hee jadi korbannnnnnnn.. ini yg bikin gw makin sebel ama BW and MH.. dont careeee lha mau si BW jd raja ok nanti nya atau apa  ahahaahaha

plus bunuh adik nya yg kecil..makin bikin gw ke JDJ.. mana pernah JDJ kaya gitu

buat gw JDJ ama BW sama2 kotor dan bersih.. tp menlihat aksi terakhir nya dia... go to hell BW *esmosi * ahhahah


gw pengen BAngJi bunugh Mho Hyull.. ahhahahaha.. atau chuk sa gwang bunuh mho hyull...

BW ini emang kereenn.. dia SMART.. LICIK..  CONFIDENT.. BRAVE...  HEARTLESS...

kata2 BanJi ke nyokap nya gw sukaaa.. LBW dan JDJ is sameee.. but LBW want to make it his.... Yess rigth  setujuu..


btw d sejarah .. ni BW mati nya gimana setelah dia jadi raja yg sukses..
