Appearently Gwanghae had experinced a realistic character development

Ok this first episode was really good. It made me pretty curious about Gwanghae.
With the last scene of this episode Gwanghaes character captured my attention. I must say that I'm already familar with Prince Gwanhae and his story. In The King's Face he was pictured as a very nice, upright and wise but pitiful man, actually the same as in the begining of this episode. The Crown Prince has more enemies then supporters on the cour and even his own father doesn't cherish any feelings pf him as his son, rather as another political enemy. The King isn't only wary but also jealous of Gwanghae because of his methods of reign that lead to his popularity by the people of Joseon. Because of his weakness that Gwanghae makes him indirectly aware of he hate his son and does everything he can to depose him and doesn't listen to the princes pleads.
In 'The King's Face' Gwanghae remained that kind son and grieved over his father. I was expecting the very same from this gwanghae too BUT he did surprise me when he let everything he thought out on the Kings deathbed. Appearently this character had experinced a realistic character development. Different from 'The king's face' Gwanghae did realize that the king "didn't like the fact that [he] was different frim [him] because [he is] not incompetent like [him]"
