tvN’s “Captivating the King” has shared a glimpse of its upcoming series finale!
Penned by “The Crowned Clown” writer Kim Sun Deok, “Captivating the King” tells the love story of King Yi In (Jo Jung Suk), a miserable monarch who feels empty inside despite his high position, and Kang Hee Soo (Shin Se Kyung), whose initial plot of revenge against him transforms into an unexpected attraction.
Spoilers
On the previous episode of “Captivating the King,” the Queen Dowager (Jang Young Nam) discovered that “Kang Mong Woo” (Kang Hee Soo’s alter ego) was, in fact, a woman. The Queen Dowager then gifted her with a ceremonial robe and pressured her to openly become Yi In’s woman. At the very end of the episode, Yi In stormed in, leaving viewers wondering what sort of conflict would ensue between him and the Queen Dowager.
In newly released stills from the drama’s final episode, Yi In and Kang Hee Soo share a romantic kiss under the moonlight. Yi In seems unable to tear his eyes off Kang Hee Soo, as if trying to memorize every part of her face—and Kang Hee Soo returns his gaze with a look of complete trust.
Notably, however, Kang Hee Soo is now dressed as a woman, raising the question of whether she will come clean about her identity and officially become the king’s lover.
To find out what lies in store for the couple, catch the finale of “Captivating the King” on March 3 at 9:20 p.m. KST!
