From Dust to Queen

Synopsis

Cast out into a storm by her general husband, thirty-year-old Grace Whitmore has a chance encounter with the young emperor and disappears soon afterward. Six years later, she arrives at the Empress Dowager's celebration with triplets, where her former husband Philip, his mistress, and even Grace's sister-in-law publicly attack her and question the children's bloodline. A blood test identifies the emperor as their father, prompting him to defend Grace and the children, punish those who framed her, and raise her from rejected wife to empress.

Episode 1 might make you go "what IS this lunatic" and bail. He's my favorite short-drama actor and even I hesitated. Please stay with it!! The acting is unreal, the way his eyes go, the way he smiles, each one gets me >_<

My favorite of his modern-set work and honestly my favorite short drama full stop. You get the complete unhinged-psycho performance, and I'd say his acting leveled up here. If you're working through his filmography, this is the one.

The plot is hard to follow and never really comes together. With all the flashbacks and dream sequences, the pacing has no tension at all…
