The Story
In the 18th Century, Yi San is a crown prince who dreams of becoming a righteous King. The current King, his grandfather Yeongjo, is known for being a cruel and ruthless leader who is uninterested in the people he is supposed to represent, but San is determined to redeem his family name. Sung Deok Im is a Court Lady who serves in the library of the Prince's palace. A chance encounter with the Prince leads to a unique friendship between the two. As their connection grows, the King expresses his desire for Deok Im to become his Concubine. But although she has pledge to support and protect him until he becomes King, Deok Im is not interested in a formal royal title that would take away the little amount of control she still has over her own life. As her feelings for the Prince grow, she is locked in a struggle between love and freedom.
Should I Watch
"The Red Sleeve" is a beautiful and thought-provoking historical romance drama. It is neither light and silly or weighted down with complex political intrigue. Instead, the beauty of this drama lies in the raw thread of realism that focuses on difficult life lessons like love, sacrifice, and regret. It is not a series full of perfect happily ever afters, but rather the joys and sorrows that often come hand in hand as we live and make choices. For me, this drama is easily the best historical drama of 2021. A terrific cast, gorgeous production, and captivating plot all make this one a drama well worth your time. I give "The Red Sleeve" a 10 out of 10 ramen.
