Where it came from
Goong, also known as Princess Hours, began serialization in 2002 as a seminal work in the manhwa industry. Created by Park So-hee, the series reimagines contemporary South Korea as a constitutional monarchy, providing a unique framework to explore modern romance set against the rigid protocols of a royal court. The work emerged during a period of significant growth for Korean comics, blending traditional aesthetics with shoujo-inspired character dynamics.
The visual design of the series is celebrated for its intricate renderings of hanbok and royal regalia, which Park So-hee meticulously researched to reflect a plausible modern-day monarchy. The narrative was received with immense critical acclaim, leading to its status as a foundational piece of early 2000s manhwa that successfully bridged the gap between historical drama and contemporary school-life tropes, eventually inspiring a highly successful television adaptation.
