SBS’s upcoming drama “The King: Eternal Monarch” has shared a new glimpse of the chemistry between stars Lee Min Ho and Woo Do Hwan!
Penned by Kim Eun Sook, the famous writer behind hit dramas “Goblin,” “Descendants of the Sun,” “Mr. Sunshine,” and “Heirs,” “The King: Eternal Monarch” is a fantasy romance drama about two parallel universes. One universe is a democracy that resembles modern-day Korea as we know it, while the other is an alternate universe in which Korea is an empire ruled by a single monarch.
In order to fight evil and close the door between their two worlds, the ruler of the Korean Empire—Emperor Lee Gon (played by Lee Min Ho)—ends up joining forces with Jung Tae Eul, a detective who resides in modern-day Korea (played by Kim Go Eun).
Woo Do Hwan will also star in the drama as Jo Young, the chief imperial bodyguard and Emperor Lee Gon’s closest friend. Their friendship began long before Jo Young took on his role as chief bodyguard—Lee Gon and Jo Young first met at an early age and grew up together in the imperial palace. Despite technically being ruler and subject, the two longtime friends are even closer than brothers, with the drama’s producers describing them as “soulmates.”
