Why is it that when women in #Joseon dramas are in disguise as men, they are so obviously not. Are we supposed to suspend our disbelief? Is there another explanation? Perhaps that we are supposed to believe that no one would dare consider that a woman would wear men’s clothing? #KDrama #Kdramas

“Likewise, the burgeoning friendship/romance between the two leads feels implausible and flimsy, hindered by Hee-soo’s hilariously unconvincing disguise. Whether it’s the fault of the performance, or sloppy make-up and costuming, nobody with sight would ever buy her charade.” https://www.nme.com/en_asia/reviews/tv-reviews/captivating-the-king-review-3579218

@cs As women had no rights in the #joseon period (just like in TX), how would you not expect them to dress as men to make a living?
