It's not in Disney+ North America yet. Wondering if this a one-go drop or weekly series.

Dang, 3 episodes?! I thought it was 2...
Hopefully it should come with Eng subs?
Well, I'll wait and watch whenever Eng subs are available.

I failed horribly at even passing ep 1 of S1, but I will take a look at this for Teachers´ sake.
tho im torn between yes he is great at action but after FoE I kinda want to see more psychological suspense and dramatic roles. and then, its not like I want the action dropped alltogether! but then!
ok even if this is bad, I shall watch it.

Unless they re-do characters completely, one of his roles here is not much of an action guy but a sly court schemer instead. So hopefully we'll get a bit of both.

Oh, that another dude was the walking bad omen in S1 (someone here dubbed him as "psycho elf" and that was a VERY apt description), people loved his unhinged manipulative persona way more than actual protagonist. So I really expect LJG's acting to deliver at that... as long as script cooperates ofc.

Saw the first two episodes. I'm not happy with Joongi's hair 😂 but thank God his acting is flawless!

Same! The hair looks too wig-like, especially Saya's. But he still looks pretty so I'll just have to go with it.

That man himself is pretty enough that no bad wig can make him look bad 😂
*spoilers ahead*
Till now ep. 2, I love the war scenes between Saya's cavalry and Eunseom's infantry and how smart the Inaishigi (aka Eunseom) with the tactic on the plains - the knots tied in the grass which leave the enemy's horses tripping and their men falling off.

The only reason I'll be watching this is because I need closure. For the 18 hours of my life I spent on the first season. For gritting my teeth and getting through it, looking past its flaws, ignoring the plot holes, the unnecessarily stretched out plotlines, the having to squint through my eyes and get a headache by the end of it shot-in-candlelight episodes all because I liked the world building and wanted to see it through. And I was duped. Because I didn't know it was going to be two seasons. I didn't realize episode 18 was the end of it. And I was left flabbergasted went it ended.
So I shall watch. Despite the fact that the leads have changed, despite the fact that is after a 8 year time jump, despite that this drama has more characters and storylines and lore than it knows what to do with.
So please be alright, drama. I'm not even hoping for good or great. Just give me closure. I beg of thee.

Those 18 episodes in AC 1 averaged 80 minutes so in reality you spent 24 hours on the first season.

The main characters didn't change their face only, they got a lobotomy too. Now, Eunsom and Saya act the same... they're not very different anymore. It's weird. Eunsom seems cynical and cruel too now. Saya doesn't look mysterious anymore.

the drama is so-so, main problem being that the mythology and names etc are too complicated but Teacher totally rules every shot he is in so basically it could just as well be a storyteller monologue. ooh I would totally watch a mono-drama or play with Lee Joon Gi. He has such a grip over you with the tension and weight he puts into everything
