These posters reminded me of this quote: "“Behind every mask there is a face, and behind that a story.” ― Marty Rubin ―

I'm sold. Completely.

Ha! the first poster reminds me of those headless historical romance novels covers.. just creepier.

Posters are gorgeous. So many sageuks this year but I can make time for Yoo Seung-ho and Kim So-hyun. This drama will be beautiful in more than one way.

These are pretty awesome. I'm glad it's not the typical sageuk poster. I'm thinking both figures in the first must be him. It doesn't say anything about his father having a mask too, but I could be wrong.

Lol, if it is just him, I gotta commend his style. Haha, customizing his masks to match his robes!

Posters are awesome, teasers are great, and this premieres on the last day of my exams!! So excited :)

The mask and story has me thinking of the prince and the pauper. Maybe a switching of L's character and Seon. What other way to hide behind a mask than to hide behind a double? Anyway, I'm so excited for this. Hopefully it won't fail me like the sageuk that shall not be named. Just know that it ends with a word close "pan" and I never want to hear the word gambling for a long, long while.

The hype is reallllll.
Yoo Seung Ho and Kim So Hyun are a dream pairing of two extraordinarily talented child actors who only get better with time. Now that they're taking on leads in a historical drama, a type that they've both had experience in, it'll be a wonder if Ruler's ratings doesn't match or even surpass TMETS, one of So Hyun's best sageuk dramas to date.

Love the posters! I wish I was excited about the writer and director.

Is it just me who thought of Nearly Headless Nick and his desire to be part of the 'Headless Hunt'?

P.S. The posters look beautiful but the blue colour (though gloomy here) is making me miss Moonlight.

Such beautiful posters. I am really loving the feeling they evoke.

Really looking forward to this drama! One of the 3 I am most anticipating.

The posters are gorgeous and give off a mysterious vibe. Lovely! I think these are some of the most original designs I've seen recently.

the posters are so gorgeous yet give a creepy vibe. I hope the story doesn't flop. Finger crossed!

What an amazing poster, every teaser, every poster, everything about this drama makes me more excited, I can't wait to see my favorite child actress KSH on my screen. Jebaaaal! live up to my expectations.

I can't wait for may 10...... It's torture waiting for my dongsaeng Kim so hyun

For some reasons, the name of this show remind me of " the man in the iron mask" movie. Did anyone has this feeling?

I am so excited for this drama! I simply love Kim So-hyun after her performance in The Moon That Embraces the Sun :) This will be my first drama with Yoo Seung-ho and I'm interested to see how he acts! As for the posters, the entire theme is intriguing and I'm led to believe that both figures are him... but they look amazing!

Love the play of light, shadow and color in these posters. They do a great job of hooking you into wanting to know more about the mystery and intrigue to come. Hope the writing lives up to the promise of these posters!

Chilling, I can't wait.

(But seriously, there is not enough Kim So-hyun in all these teasers!)

Oh my gosh, these posters look really gorgeous! I'm really loving the artistry and detail in this! Also I'm so excited for this drama!

Saw L's 'the day after we broke up' recently. So now I really really wish there were a parallel love arc for L and Yoon So Hee,sobs. These two made it work, and the chemistry was too strong.

But you guys... how many dramas are premiering on May 10? Seems like every upcoming drama I wanna watch airs that day >.<

The poster look beautiful..

This is giving me Wang So (LJK) vibes.

These posters make me excited for a drama that wasnt on my list. Since it has Yoo Seungho and Kim SoHyun I will see if its my cup of tea. That photo at the top intrigues me the most!

Can May just come already! Can't wait for this drama =)

SO DAMN EXCITED! YSH looks already in top form in all the teasers - I suppose he always is anyway - but the posters look haunting and mysterious, I love it!

I'm definitely waiting for the OTP posters and teasers though. I really want to see YSH and KSH in something super romantic - whether that be a scene or a picture. Fingers crossed everything works for this drama because the leads are literally dream come true pairing.

A completely newbie writer for sageuk? Huh they must be really confident, since usually sageuk is more expensive to produce.

Not only do the colors of the robes designate King and Crown Prince, but the dragon emblems do as well. The King's dragon will always have 5 toes on each foot; the Crown Prince's dragon will have 4 toes on each foot. FYI: If the Crown Prince has an eldest son, his dragon would have 3 toes on each foot. With sageuk, it's all about the details.

I think the posters look great!

Whenever I see Kim So Hyun take selfies in sageuk clothing (in her character) every now and again in her instagram, it just pumps me up more each time to the point I'm about to burst of excitement waiting for this!! AgrH! I must reign in this ginormous expectation!

I'M EXCITED FOR THIS!!! MYUNGSOO! ?

These posters look amazing. Can't wait!!!!

These posters made me more excited about Ruler. MBC already made me mesmerized through Rebel, and now this.

I am really interested in this drama. The posters do a pretty good job of bringing a sense of mystery.

Wow!! I really love these beautifully crafted posters!! And totally anticipating this series!!!

Random comment but - Kim So Hyun was absolutely gorgeous in Goblin but they replayed that arrow scene so many times that now I might have PTSD just watching her in sageuk again, LOL!

I usually get bored of sageuks if they're too long, but eh, Yoo Seung Ho. I'll definitely give this show a try!

it's May 10 again! Suspicious Partner is airing that time. And many other dramas im looking forward to are even airing in the month of May. I pray for all us.....
T_T

Reminded me a bit of the movie Daerib Forces poster, although their concept is more on faceless rather than headless. XD http://pds.joins.com/news/component/htmlphoto_mmdata/201703/09/7a939182-dfb5-4672-a3b0-5297aecbff48.jpg

Anyway this is Sohyun's first lead in sageuk, right? I hope this drama will be really good~~ I remember first watching Yoo Seungho in The Way Home years back, watching the teasers he's grown up so handsome.

One word -- Mysterious.
Ofcourse this have to be a test posters only. We need Yoo Seung Ho's beautiful face in the official posters LOL. Please don't let the next [teaser] posters to have his face covered with a mask (did I just give them an idea?)

Well, was I the only one who was kinda freaked out of the posters? Since you know, they're headless and the joseon vibe kinda adds freakiness in it? hahaha anyway, excite for the story to unfold between these two ex-child stars (be it a love story or a creepy story HAHA)

I'M EXCITED FOR THIS DRAMA! ESPECIALLY FOR MYUNGSOO!! ?

Very pretty. The peasant holding the King's red robes and the mask, hmm.. intriguing! Excited for this.

Damn, those are some really nice posters! I am totally excited for this drama and have been for a while. Yoo Seung Ho x Kim So Hyun were literally my dream pairing and I was so happy when I knew they were doing this drama together!

Those posters really hooked up my expectation and I'm starting to countdown to May 10th. Can't wait for the official posters which will not feature headless Prince/king anymore.
The way the real prince/fake prince carry the masks looked indeed creepy as some said.
Anyway it's interesting with the decoy plot when the fake one turns out to be the antagonist.
p/s: I didn't really notice the headless part until I read Dramabean title. It didnt just look creepy, it sounded creepy too..

Forgot that L is attached to this. Now doubly excited. What a cast of brilliant young actors.

This is beautiful....a poster without faces that shows alot
