King the Land Episode 4 Review
Love is blooming in this episode and it is not just for our lead couple. Episode 4 brings a distressed Gu Won who is feeling the emotions attached to love for the first time while Sa-rang shows her vulnerability when it comes to love.
Meanwhile, Ro-woon and Pyung-hwa are also ready to create new sparks of magic, but it doesn’t seem like it will be an easy road for them. Adding on, this episode has once again increased our anger towards Hwa-rand and we can no longer wait for Gu Won’s counterattack. Hopefully, it comes soon.
Altogether, another episode brought the lovely side of this drama while easily blending in with the drama that is happening around.
