YMMV / The King 2 Hearts

Go To

  • Heartwarming Moments:
    Jae Ha: I'm a prince! We shared a room and spent WAY more time together! How could she like [Shi Kyung] more?
    Jae Shin: You like unni that much?
    Jae Ha: (crickets)
    Jae Shin: (walkes to the closet) You hear that, unni?

    Hang Ah: Are you afraid?
    Jae Ha: Yes. Of everything. Except you. I don't think I can trust people anymore.
  • Moment of Awesome:
    Jae Shin: How about a fall to the death instead? (jumps off cliff)

    Kim Bong Goo: Why do you keep following [Jae Ha] around? Because he might spill a few leftover crumbs from his cookies? He has no strength. Join me; I'll have lots of cookies.
    Shi Kyung: I'm sorry, I don't eat rotten cookies.

    Queen Mother: Kill me! Do you think my children will bow to people like you? I'm going to avenge ... my Jae Kang, my Hyun-joo, my Jae Shin's legs, my Hang Ah's baby. As I fall into hell, I'm Taking You with Me. (She starts punching him. Weak, feeble punches, but they get the point across.)
  • TearJerker:
    Secretary Eun: (rambling off about Jae Ha's new duties)
    Jae Ha: STOP THE CAR!


    Queen Mother: If we crumble, everything crumbles. The two of us have to get through this.


    Jae Ha: What if they kill Hang Ah and Mom? I'm not that strong a person.
    Shi Kyung: (who had been talking non-stop until that point) ...


    Hang Ah: (frantic) How can I rest? Do you know how scary Kim Bong Goo is?
    Jae Ha: (hugging her) Sorry, Hang Ah, for not protecting you. I understand now. Seeing you be like this ... how scared you were, how difficult it was for you. I know now. Sorry, Hang Ah. I said I'd make you happy, but I'm powerless. I'm so sorry.
  • What Do You Mean, It's Not Political?: A constant theme of Korean reunification runs throughout the drama.
    • In the very first scene of the show, the Berlin Wall falls.
    • Jae Ha plays Ave Maria (Bach/Gounod) version and declares, "Bach and Gounod were born in different places. In different times. Their music fitting together like this is amazing."
    • During the WOC games, Hang Ah delivers a heartfelt speech to an American soldier who claims that it's "just a game."
      Hang Ah: Have you ever been separated from your family? People with the same language, the same history, who lived together for thousands of years—in one moment, separated—have you ever been split like that? Losing parents and siblings, destroyed by a three-year war—has that ever happen to you? I don’t know if this is just a game to you, but it has always been critical for us.
