Following this, Queen Woo Part 2 is set to premiere on September 12, 2024. The duration of these episodes is around 50 minutes.
There are high expectations for Part 2 due to the intriguing cliffhangers that the first part ended with. The primary and crucial aspect is the survival of Queen Woo (played by Jeon Jong-seo) and how she will get to the next prince. It is still to be determined who she will marry in order to retain her position as the reigning queen after the death of King Goguryeo, Go Nam Mu (played by Ji Chang-wook).
The first part portrayed significantly the character of The Third Prince Go Bal Gi (played by Lee Soo-hyuk). The Third Prince exhibits a ruthless and unyielding will to apprehend the queen, upon receiving news of his brother's demise. Whether Bal Gi will succeed in his pursuit of the queen is to be seen in the next part.
Part 2 is anticipated to unveil other secrets, such as the character of Woo Do (Jo Han Chul). Many people suspect Woo Doo because of his motive for murdering the maids who were last seen with the deceased king. He must be brought to justice for his role in the murder of King.
Shaman Sa Bi (played by Oh Ha-nee) saw the fate of the King and Queen in a ritual. However, the final sequence of Part 1 left another mystery unsolved regarding what Sa Bi saw. The last scene showed Queen Woo before a golden throne, after which she witnessed something terrifying. In the second part of the series, the true purpose of this section will also be uncovered.
