Epic Dramas Continues to Boom This Year

KBS starts the New Year with two new epic dramas, "Hong Gil Dong", a Korean Robin Hood story and "The Great King Sejong", another drama portraying the king of Joseon.

Both dramas are set back in the time of the Joseon Kingdom (1392-1910). "Hong Gil Dong" is a comical remake of novel of the same name written by Heo Gyun under King Gwanghaegun's reign (1575-1641).

The rather young director Lee Jung-sub, 36, defines the soap opera as being a "totally new epic drama". He prepared for this drama for about a year with writers Hong Jeong-eun and Hong Mi-ran, also known as the "Hong Sisters" of "Sassy Girl, Chun-hyang" (2005) and "Fantastic Couple" (2006).

Scenes from the preview were rather shocking. The protagonist, Hong Gil-dong (played by actor Kang Ji-hwan) has curly hair and wears sunglasses while Heo I-nok (Seong Yoo-ri), the heroine, looks like Chun-li, the tomboy character from the popular game "Street Fighter".

Actress and singer Lee Jeong-hyeon will appear in a television drama series, a first in almost seven years after her last appearance in "Beautiful Days". Lee Jeong-hyeon will be starring in the historical drama series "Daewang Sejong" ("King Sejong") that will start airing through KBS on January 5th.

Since the 2001 broadcast of "Beautiful Days", Lee Jeong-hyeon has been focusing on her singing career in China, Japan, Vietnam, and other regions.

At the press conference held on the 20th, Lee said, "I always had a lingering thought that I have to act, but because it has been a while since I have done so, the pressure made it difficult to make a decision even when quality pieces came in as offers. That is also why it took me so long to finally decide on "Daewang Sejong" ("King Sejong"), but I started to become ambitious over the role as the character is dramatic, starting from the bottom rising to the position of a concubine in the palace".

"I have decided to end my activities in...| More

"The Palace" Season II gets a new name

2006/11/21 | Source | Permalink |

The new drama by Director Hwang In-Roi, "The Palace II" ("Princess Hours 2")got itself a new name: "The Palace S" ("Prince Hours").

"To put the copyrights issue out of our way, we need a new title for our drama, which will also have a new cast and a new story", said GROUP 8, the producer of "The Palace S" ("Prince Hours"), whose separation from Eight Peaks generated a copyrights issue because of the similarity of its new drama's title and cast to those of the original. To resolve the issue, GROUP 8 decided to come up with another drama, which will only use "The Palace" as a backdrop but will still showcase Korea as a constitutional monarchy.

"The Palace S" ("Prince Hours") means "a new start, a special story, a spin-off (the content of the new drama will be different from that of the original), and the secret surrounding the bloodline of the hero, who will be played by Se7en.

The new drama does not only boast an explosive cast (Se7en, Heo I-Jae, Kang Doo, and Park Sin-Hye); it...| More
