The King Loves episodes 9 and 10 preview: Love is in the air for Eun San?

The King Loves, the MBC historical drama also known as The King In Love, will be back with episodes 9 and 10 next Monday, July 31, at 10 pm KST. These episodes are likely to feature the love triangle between Eun San, Wang Won and Wang Rin.

While the Crown Prince has already expressed his feelings for the female to his close friend and bodyguard, Hong Jong Hyun's character is yet to open up about his feelings for Eun Young Baek's daughter to his childhood friend.

Since the Korean period drama is roughly based on a novel of the same name, the viewers are speculating that Im Yoon Ah's character will fall in love with the Crown Prince's friend and it could be the beginning of a rivalry between the two friends.
