[mslee's thoughts] The King's Face Episode 4 Review

Highlights

There was a time jump in the story. Prince Gwanghae pursued his interest in face reading. He disguised himself as one and read faces for free. But he was caught in a fight and while running away, his eunach Im Young Shin was there to help him fight. Ga Hee appeared disguised as a man again. She aimed her arrow towards the man who was fighting with the Prince. She even made the man run from her. She was not recognized by Gwanghae.

The King by now has a new concubine and seems that he is happier. But there is one woman who is not happy, Gwiin Kim. She looks jealous of the attention that the King is pouring to his new concubine.

The Japanese continues to do illegal business in Joseon. But Do Chi's group intercepted them and stole their goods. There was a fight within the group because one man spoke about the way their group has resorted to stealing. Do Chi echoed his thoughts that he too understands him.

Ga Hee and Do Chi became close and she treats him as her orabeoni. Do Chi was also interested in face reading. He would also take the auxiliary exam at the palace. He aims to go inside the palace and be near the King.


Gwanghae is also taking the exam in disguise. During the exam, the palace maid who tasted the King's food died. Everyone at the exam ground is suspected of harming the King. A palace maid pointed out towards Gwanghae who looked like the one who entered the kitchen. Do Chi used the chance to make a deal with the King. He would find out who the killer was by looking at the face of the palace maid who died. He argued that reading a face will also reveal a crime committed. If he is successful in solving the crime, he should be given the top spot in the test result. If not, he offered himself as the one to be punished.

Both Gwanghae and Do Chi looked at the dead palace maid. Both were using their skills to read the face.

-------------------------

I think Do Chi would be able to solve the case. But his face reading pointed towards a  possible illness that the victim had that leads to early death and not related to food poison.

This is going to be the turning point of the drama for a new twist. Prince Gwanghae versus Kim Do Chi inside the palace. I wonder how would Do Chi reacts if he realized that the man in front of him is actually the Prince who has a face that can lead the country in a progressing way.
