So June Hur said on Instagram that two k-drama comparisons to her forthcoming YA historical mystery romance are Kingdom and Rookie Historian. While I haven't watched the latter, the former is a thrill ride of a show. Set in Korea at the turn of the 17th century, Kingdom is a political horror thriller about a zombie plague and the quest to retain dynastic control over the realm. Everyone acts to the moon, but I especially love Bae Doona in her role. It's not a show for the faint of heart, but every bit of horror is balanced by a bit of political intrigue. - Niki
