Is King the Land worth watching?
Yes — King the Land earns a 66% Celluloid Score. Recommended, created by Choi Rom and streaming on Netflix.
Celluloid Verdict
Frothy, expensively glossy and entirely powered by Lee Jun-ho and Im Yoon-ah — the plotting is thin and the IMDb score took a beating, but the chemistry made it one of 2023's biggest Korean streaming hits.

What is King the Land about?
Gu Won is the reluctant heir to the King Group's hotel empire, dropped into head office to prove himself against a half-sister who has spent years quietly consolidating power. Cheon Sa-rang is the chain's model employee, promoted into the exclusive King the Land lounge largely on the strength of a smile she has learned to switch on for anyone. Gu Won cannot stand insincere smiles. They are, naturally, assigned to work side by side.

Critic Reviews
King the Land (2023) Review: Chemistry Over Story
★★★☆☆
King the Land is a glossy K-drama office romance between a hotel heir and a relentlessly smiling employee, carried by its leads rather than its thin plotting.
It depends. Fans of Lee Jun-ho, Im Yoon-ah and classic chaebol romcoms will have a good time; viewers who want fresh storytelling will find little here.
