Korean Drama '' Queen Woo '' is a historical drama with a focus on the political scene of the time.

The drama has a strong female lead whom we see bloom into a leader despite her gender and those against her. Her fight to establish herself was interesting to follow, as she is canning and understands how to masterfully manipulate the palace politics. The more tender storyline with her and her husband gave her another dimension to her character.

However, the ending was anticlimactic, with the upcoming final battle never coming and the season-ending kind of open, with an unluckily second season on the horizon.

Still, the performances were great and the cinematography was impressive.

So, overall, seven out of ten.
