It doesn't seem like an actual scene from the drama at all. I'm not sure if they've even started filming. The teaser just looks like it was hastily put together for the awards. The end product will probably be much better. I agree with @ari that Kim So-hyun looked stunning in Goblin, so hopefully the costumes and whatnot will do her justice in this one. I'm not too hyped because of the premise, but I'll definitely catch this just for the cast.

I wish i could take the cast of this drama and switch them with cast of The King Loves(the one Im Shi Wan and Yoona) just cause that other drama has a (potentially) more interesting and complex premise that this calibre of actors are capable of delivering, intense and heavy especialy in saeguk.

Now we all know that exciting premise can be wasted and turn out to make for a, at best messy watch and at worst, boring watch.

Conversly, a cliche and seemingly redundant premise can turn out to be fresh and even unique. I've stopped beign prejudiced against seemingly tired and cliche sounding storylines since Falling For Innocence, MDBC, MS.T& NJG, Shopping King Luis e.t.c. Its all in the execution.

Long ass rambling just to say, I hope this show turns out to be good!!

What a courtyard, reminds me of a scene in the movie, Memories Of A Sword.

Is Aqua gonna sponsor the show? Will they show us Joseon-esque mineral water and sparkling water? Is the villains building wells and dams to "own" the water or what? I'm curious how they will privatize water in Joseon.

Is this going up against SBS's My Sassy Girl which also premieres in May? Though both are saeguks, this one looks downright serious and the other a comedy. Somehow I am reminded of Moonlight vs Moon Lovers.

I think the plot is pretty interesting, especially on the love plot, KSH will totally slay the strong independent woman character, and her taking revenge on YSH, and ofcourse the drama make us cry bucket of tears by YSH alone. OMG, I just love this ensemble, heck i'll watching anything with this two.

SO tired of this era but these two are worth watching!

Kim Soo Hyun looks more graceful and stunning with Goryeo costume and hairdo in Goblin. It made me forget that Joseon has different style before I came to see her pictures here.

Looks really rushed and made up in a hurry. Kim So Hyun looks gorgeous but Yoo Seung Ho was never my style and I don't find him good looking at all. So I can't really get into their romance story yet. But I thought the same thing about Kim Yoo Jung and Park Bogum so let's see how it goes.

I love the cast... and i'm really looking forward to this drama.. but i was a little worried about the plot.. since many dramas at first highly anticipated but ultimately disappointing and have low ratings.. I hope MBC will not waste the acting and the charm of the two main leads.. cause both KSH and YSH are amazing actors! they have a great chemistry too! I really hope this drama will be a hit in 2017.

YSH and KSH in ONE drama as leads? My heart can't take it. Excited *-*

I've been impressed with Yoo Seung Ho's movies/dramas ever since Queen Seon Duk! I am glad whenever he's in a sageuk, because I love his sageuk intonation.

I have equal respect for Kim So Hyun, who had first caught my attention in Moon Embracing the Sun. They're both great in sageuks, so may this be a successful drama!

So was this project announced before MDBC or did they see that Youth sageuks are the new doctor dramas and wanted to capitalize on it.

Love Kim So Hyun and since Goblin we know she can pull off sageuks. Only saw Yoo Seung Hoo in Queen Seondeok and didn't find him memorable. Can he act well as Park Bogum?

I hope it's more traditional and less fusion-y, there's been too many fusion saeguks recently. Bring me some hard stuff. No modern-ish hanboks or modern-ish speech or elements of fantasy.

As much as I love the cast, the plot itself doesn't sound exciting AT ALL

May is too long away...

So, is the heroine's father also a traitor? This has been an overused trope in sageuk. Will check it out before judging.

Actors have more catchy acting than each other, that's it in the case of yoo seung ho, he's by no means a bad actor, he's acting is not just catchy..
So hyun's acting is more catchy same thing to applies to lmh,jcw,ljk but they actually doesn't hold a candle to him, it was this same ysh that drowned jcw in baek dong soo..
Sometimes it has to do with the scripts, most of these super popular actors do dodges some projects they go for ones that are really easy and simple..
ysh doesn't pick simple projects or the ones that could make him popular, instead he goes for heavy roles.. that's because he's not acting for money..
Kim soo hyun, sang bum, yoo ha in, shk are another actors that doesn't overacts..

like both of them. will definitely watch this one.
