Kingdom | Changdeokgung Injeongjeon — The Hall That Had to Look Like a Living Court

People treat Kingdom as a sound-stage Joseon that never left a warehouse in Goyang.
The first hall that had to stand as a real court is this one.
Changdeokgung occupies 99 Yulgok-ro in Jongno-gu, Seoul. Injeongjeon, the Hall of Benevolent Governance, sits on its two-tier stone platform at the heart of the palace. The present hall dates from the 1804 rebuild after fire. UNESCO listed the whole complex in 1997.
Netflix's Kingdom used the palace as a principal Seoul location for season one, which premiered on 25 January 2019. Injeongjeon carried the weight of a court that still pretended the king was alive. Gwallamjeong Pavilion, farther back toward the rear garden and the water, framed the scene in which Queen Consort Cho faces her father, Minister Cho Hak-ju, over what the country will become. Aeryeonji Pond is the water the production used when palace guards needed a body to disappear.
You enter through Donhwamun, the oldest surviving palace gate in Seoul, then walk the stone courtyard that was built for officials to stand in ranks. The hall does not look like a set. The roof tiles, the rank stones, and the raised floor are the same pieces a Joseon king used for audiences.
Stand on the court stones and look at the five imperial seals on the roof ridge. The series needed a palace that could still pass as a working government. This one never stopped being one.
