"Don't end from here we need part 3 or need season 2. Queen woo deserves season 2 this drama deserves epic battle scene we need it"
Several additional comments were posted online by viewers regarding the drama's second season. Some viewers felt the show was missing something crucial, like the much-anticipated war sequences involving the queen.
“Queen woo part 1 is amazing we love it with epic scenes and we waited so long for this war but its ending from here it doesnt fit to drama like this. This drama game me Game of thrones and lord of the rings vibe so dont ruin it. Please we need sequel Queen woo deserves part 3," wrote an X user.
“so that's how it ended. We didn't get to see the war happening, like why? however if we are getting season 2 then it all makes sense to end here," commented another viewer.
“See people love this so we need season 2 we love to watch it we love to see battle scenes it our queen," another fan stated.
Other people on X wondered how long they would have to wait for the next season of the historical thriller drama.
“Pls how long do we have to wait for season 2?," a fan wrote.
“How can it just end like that? I wanted to see how the war ended. Ugh,her mind," stated a viewer.
“Plz tell me there is a second season cuz no way they ended on tht cliff hanger with so many un answered questions," remarked an X user.
Queen Woo seemed to be based on a true story
Ever since the period drama aired on TVing, viewers have raised speculations about the plot being inspired by the life of Queen U. According to historical accounts of Korea, Queen U was a member of the U clan who, in 180 AD, tied the knot with King Go Nammu of Goguryeo.
The oldest records of Korean history, Samsuk Sagi, have mentioned the details of the Kingdom of Goguryeo. Therefore, the series seemed to be guided by the life and reign of Queen U of Goguryeo. The history also detailed the king's unfortunate death and the queen's struggles to maintain her place as ruler in a male-dominated society.
Those interested in historical dramas may catch episodes of Queen Woo on TVing, Viu and, Paramount+.
