Oh Snap! A king’s face

by javabeans

Well, it’s not much in the way of a poster (so many sageuks have generically similar posters—well, so many dramas have generically similar posters) but I suppose they’re pretty. Or maybe it’s that Seo In-gook, playing Prince (and later King) Gwanghae, is pretty. He’ll join the tragic father-son pairings dotting dramaland this year as his father, King Seonjo (played by Lee Sung-jae), hears an ominous fortune in his face reading and decides that his son will become a threat to his rule. That can’t end well, can it?

King’s Face is set to premiere next week, on November 19, as KBS’s next Wednesday-Thursday drama.

And I meant to type "bu-yah." What's with the imps controlling our keyboards today?

You know, I think if I wrote "bu" I must have meant "bu". Have yet to figure out what it means though.

I was wracking my brain trying to remember if Park Min Young is part of the cast, only to realize that that's Jo Yoon-Hee and not PMY...

I immediately think SKKS...
Now sageuk female lead almost always crossdressing. (See: Joseon Gunman, Empress Ki, SKKS, POTW, etc)

haha yeah, it kinda shows that as a woman you can't do much during those eras (unless of course you are a king's mom or queen or concubines)

But when they have power they almost always ended up as villain/b****

At least I know Gwanghaegun won't die in the end because he will be the ruler of Joseon.. unlike other drama I follow right now that won't end well. *point at SD*

I really love SIG I do, but the dramas that this show caught earlier on threw me off. I'll be sitting off this one, unless there are gorgeous screencaps of SIG in traditional garbs fROM episode 1 that makes me drool XP

I am excited to see SIG play a king. The ridiculous love triangle on the other hand could potentially break the show....hope not.

This show will probably be serious tonally, but i hope they give Seo In Guk funny scenes at least in the first few eps (hello, prince-in-disguise-out-on-a-fieldtrip hijinks!) He's great at anything, but he really wows in comedy!

First poster, ripoff of Homeland's season 4 poster (with much less relevancy and creativity)

Not really, these types of posters are done all the time lol. This is definitely not the first time I've seen this style and I've never seen that Homeland poster before.

*crossing my fingers* really hoping it's gonna be good!

Just realized that I haven't watched a sageuk all year (except maybe a couple episodes of King's Daughter, Soo Baek-hyang - still have all 108 episodes sitting in my external hard drive lol). Maybe this one will be the first. Or is Secret Door worth my time??
