The Royal Tailor Audience Reviews

ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Katie Jurek This movie is tragic and heart-wrenching, if you let it be.
kathyjilee The costumes and actors/actresses were wonderfully aligned and prepared for this beautiful movie.
miket641 My wife and I watch a lot of Korean movies ( her being Korean and all) and I really enjoy the romantic comedies. I don't enjoy the period movies or shows unless there is a lot of sword play and material arts in it BUT! Even I enjoyed this movie. The Characters/Actors were perfect and it was an amazing story. Give this movie a try, though it's not a romantic comedy it is a great movie.
Alison Cho Dol-Seok (Han Seok-kyo) has been the royal tailor for three Kings, including the current King (Yoo Yeon-seok) and Queen (Park Shin- hye). He's maintained his position by keeping to traditional, dignified clothing styles, ones that emphasize position and gravitas. The royal court is not without intrigue, however, and soon the Queen has a rival, young Concubine Soo-Yi (Lee Yoo-bi). The Queen meets a young tailor, Lee Gong-jin (Ko Soo), who unlike Cho is a true artist in terms of his creations, and it's not long before the divided loyalties in the court are made manifest through which tailor makes one's clothes....This is an absolutely beautiful-looking film, as befits a movie where the clothes are paramount in telling the story. It's also very well-acted, particularly by the two actors playing the tailors, who depict their deep friendship while at the same time having completely different temperaments and spirits. There's some humour in the piece, but it's generally quite somber and tragic - as is frequently fitting for a period drama like this one. Gorgeous to look at, but it might just break your heart.
