The King's Affection (Season 1)

The King's Affection (연모, 2021) is a South Korean historical drama you can watch online on iFILM, starring Park Eun-bin and directed by Song Hyun-wook.

When the crown princess gives birth to twins, the girl is condemned — a bad omen, ordered to be killed. Her mother secretly smuggles her out of the palace. Years later, the prince falls ill and dies. With no male heir, the girl is brought back and made to take his place as crown prince, taking the name Yi Hwi. She hides her identity behind court rituals and cold distance. But her new teacher Jung Ji-woon, sharp-tongued and relentless, begins to see through the walls she has built.

The drama weaves palace intrigue, a gender-disguise premise, and a forbidden romance into something that earns its emotional payoff scene by scene. Stream all episodes of The King's Affection online on iFILM.
