Upcoming drama series ‘The King‘ is drawing widespread attention for recently confirming the roles of Ha Ji Won and Lee Seung Gi, who will be starring as unlikely leads in the dramatic romance drama.
Taking place in an imaginary modern-day world in which South Korea is still ruled by a royal monarchy, ‘The King’ follows the story of a prince and special forces instructor from North Korea.
Kim Hang Ah, played by Ha Ji Won, is the legendary top female instructor working in North Korea’s elite special forces unit. With stamina, training tactics and strength in all areas, she is the perfect female soldier; however, she has never fallen in love before. Pure and candid, Kim Hang Ah’s goal is to fall in love and get married to a man.
Lee Seung Gi steps into the role of Lee Jae Ha, the prince of South Korea’s imaginary monarchy. His personality reflects his royal position, with refined humor and a handsome face; however, he has little interest in pursuing politics. Though he seems perfect on the exterior, he’s actually very materialistic and blunt about his own desires.
‘The King’ throws the elite North Korean special forces instructor and South Korea’s prince together in an unlikely romance, despite their prejudice against each other and the interference from people around them.
Though official promotions for the series have yet to begin, this is already shaping up to be one of the most highly anticipated dramas for the first half of 2012. Will you be tuning in?
