David, now an old man, is still king of Israel. Among his sons, the ambitious Adonijah and the clever Solomon. The two young men are fierce rivals, since both are prospective heirs to the throne and only one can be successful. During a hunting expedition, Adonijah challenges his younger brother Solomon to a chariot race. While Solomon, though brave, still retains a modicum of caution, the daredevil Adonijah is eager to win at all costs -- and loses control of his chariot. Solomon takes the seriously injured Adonijah back to Jerusalem. On the way there they meet the attractive Abishag, who despite her youth is versed in the use of healing herbs. She actually succeeds in helping the prince. Adonijah falls in love with Abishag -- but Bathsheba arranges things so that she works for David, hoping that her youth, her beauty and her healing powers will soothe the old king's suffering. Several members of the influential priesthood and also the respected army general Joab, who served David loyally for many years, support Adonijah's claim to the throne-- even though David has still not made any decision with regard to a potential successor. The battle-experienced Joab regards Solomon as an indecisive weakling, under whose leadership the kingdom would soon fall apart. When the prophet Nathan finds out about Adonijah's conspiracy he informs Bathsheba and Solomon, who urge David to take immediate action. And so it comes to pass that preparations to anoint the future king of Israel are made both at the Spring of Enrogel, where Adonijah and his men are encamped, as well as in Jerusalem. The festive procession for Adonijah has already been assembled and the people enticed with delicious delicacies to cheer him on, when the news of Solomon's coronation reaches Enrogel. The people promptly acknowledge the will of King David and stream off to Jerusalem in their hordes to greet Solomon, their future ruler. Adonijah remains behind with a handful of loyal followers. He realizes that he has lost -- for the time being. Humbly he places his life in his brother's hands. Adonijah is forgiven on one condition: that he always remains loyal to his brother Solomon. The great King David is dead, and his son Solomon has succeeded him as the rightful ruler of Israel. Adonijah now has a request to make of Bathsheba: he wants to marry Abishag. Solomon hears about this seemingly innocent wish, and recognizes it as a renewed ploy on behalf of his brother to reclaim the throne -- Adonijah's marriage to the last woman to share King David's bed would strengthen his political position considerably. Solomon knows that he has to act quickly and decisively if he is to secure his own power. He has his brother Adonijah and the latter's closest associate Joab executed. After this radical decision, Solomon withdraws to present sacrifices. In a dream the Lord appears to him and grants him the fulfillment of a wish, whatever it may be. Solomon merely asks for wisdom -- in order to become a good ruler and judge. War with Egypt is looming. To arm his kingdom against the territorial ambitions of its powerful neighbors, Solomon not only introduces several reforms but also decides to marry the daughter of the pharaoh. The Egyptian princess does not remain Solomon's only wife, however: as time goes by the king marries numerous noble women from many different countries for political and economic reasons. In this way he preserves peace for his people, and creates great prosperity. By allowing the women to continue practicing their domestic customs and religious rituals in Jerusalem as well, he comes into regular conflict with the priesthood, who see the foreign religions as endangering Israel's sole covenant with the Lord. The wisdom granted to Solomon by God becomes fully evident when the king sits in judgment. One day two harlots each claim to be mother of the same baby. Solomon's decision seems utterly cruel: he says that the child should be cut in two so that each woman receives half. Solomon can now determine who the real mother is from her reaction: she will not allow her child to be harmed. Solomon hands the child back to its true mother amid cheers of approval. One of the most important tasks handed down to Solomon by his father David is building the great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. It has to be larger and more magnificent than all other temples in the world, and Solomon now sets about fulfilling his father's wish. He places Jeroboam in charge of the Israelite workers as chief overseer. Seven years later, the work is completed. The expensive construction materials have been brought from far-off lands, and the people of Israel have paid exceedingly high taxes without complaint in order to finance the construction work. The Ark of the Covenant can now finally be taken to the Temple in a triumphant procession. After so many years of wandering, the Israelites' most sacred possession now has a fixed home of its own. People stream to Jerusalem from across the entire country to celebrate the great day. Abishag, now married, comes too and brings her family. Solomon has decided to mingle among the people in disguise, and he and Abishag are overjoyed when they accidentally meet again after so many years. The Temple makes Jerusalem and its king famous throughout the world. Even the dark-skinned Queen of Sheba sets off with a large retinue to visit the wise and cultivated Solomon and admire his magnificent city. The admiration turns out to be mutual: Solomon, captivated by her beauty, falls deeply in love with her. The two of them have a child, Menelik, but one day the Queen of Sheba decides to leave. She does not want Menelik to be deprived of the regal dignity awaiting him in his home country. Solomon stays behind, with a heavy heart. The king has now achieved everything he set his heart on, but with the passing of the years the wise Solomon gradually becomes a melancholy, skeptical old man who regularly questions his very existence. Material things seem to represent the only reality for him. He also refuses to adopt any kind of steady policy, especially in religious matters. With his foreign wives, Solomon sacrifices to foreign gods, and this incurs the wrath of the priesthood. The loyal Jeroboam appeals to his king's conscience, but to no avail. During one of Solomon's sorties in disguise among his people, a simple farmer reminds him of the first of the Ten Commandments revealed by the Lord to Moses: "You shall have no other gods before me." At another decisive moment, God Himself speaks to Solomon and announces the punishment for his sinfulness: the kingdom will collapse after Solomon's death. The king has grown old and weary. He has lost touch with the people of Israel, who are suffering from heavy taxation and forced labor. Solomon has treated his long-standing companion Jeroboam, to whom he entrusted the administration of the northern tribes, with murderous anger ever since a prophet predicted the division of the kingdom to him. The king no longer has the strength to change things -- he just leaves them as they are. The consequences of this become clear shortly after his death. Solomon's son and successor Rehoboam treats the country's leaders with arrogance, and provokes the division of the kingdom into two parts: the only tribe still loyal to him is that of Judah, while all the others unite under Jeroboam. The prophecy has been fulfilled. The kingdom that Solomon received from his father David, and invested with such might and magnificence, is now divided.
披着SM皮的轻喜剧。女性标签非常重，女权话题讨论还是稍显刻意。看完依然没有解答对特殊群体的困惑
四愛魂熊熊燃燒。誰看了不想狠狠地抽李濬榮。
3.5无功无过的公式化轻喜剧，有将职场性别歧视的现状与DS关系放在一起倒置对比的idea，但可惜浅尝即止。私心给忙内多打0.5分，这么多年来忙内的演员成长真的好快，当年演员初出道的贤还宛如昨日..
原本以为这是一部主打色情性质的片子，万万没想到它会在后面展示伪dom事件，以及展示出那么多社会对女性的不公。
换成男S女M，应该不会有上映的机会
男主莫名其妙有点像瘟神但是比他帅一点……稍有些倒胃口……但是狗勾演得让人一看就想欺负。
业余入门科普向的香草级政治正确bdsm小鸡电影，不愧是奈飞时代的产物
男主真的是狗狗本狗了！影片一气呵成，看起来可太舒服了！
三星全给到casting director 是选角让这部电影少了尴尬
披着bdsm皮的韩国纯爱片，喜剧部分倒是还行，其他part基本可以称得上是诈骗了
乔欣×黄轩既视感，小众文化科普向，谁会不喜欢男主（泪痣超迷人）这种没有攻击性的顺毛大狗狗呢？捆绑着的双手，作势将对方圈向自己，而后十指牢牢锁住，气场倒置的强势吻必须入选本人年度十佳接吻镜头！
3.5 我觉得是有让大家包容多元的教育意义的，理想化韩剧结尾也挺好。
畢竟是偶像演的主流商業片，是能夠解禁到哪去，最後還是得回歸純愛的領域，2022.02.15
哎呀狗狗又像黄轩又像一博可太招人喜欢啦玩游戏玩动了情真的是喜剧变悲剧这哪是he其实是be
这个分数稍微有点低估了这个片子，比起猎奇说明的部分，其实在办公室爆发的那一场戏着实是一种了不起的释放。结合韩国的各类新闻传闻绯闻，切实感受到了那种沉重的压抑感。
本质韩国言情片 小甜饼 除了调教其他部分还行整个片子压根不像电影的质感 而且看了的美眉 建议还是别胡乱趟这趟浑水
既不唯美也不cult，不如隔壁365霸道黑总。
No.21 失望就是很纯情的爱情片罢了 徐贤倒是变漂亮了
这种题材怎么会拍得这么无聊？？？趣味性都比不上杜蕾斯的创意广告短片。
朴贤真导演真是个「处心积虑」的心机X。表面上傻白甜似的做了一出「以女性为Dom」的戏码，实则暗地里依旧是在影射男性Sub在BDSM中的主导地位。女性Dom看似生理上取得胜利的背后，内核依旧是为讨好男性Sub的「私欲」而成为被控制、被胁迫、被牵着鼻子走的对象而已。从上司审问一场戏即可看出其「夹带私货」的本质以及对男性的「满腔恶意」。情节不错的电影，但不能深究，否则会让人对导演的「动机不纯」感到反胃。
