Yoon Gyoon-sang and Kim Ji-seok-I face off in stills for "Rebel Hong Gil-dong"
The manes of glory are out in full force asYoon Gyoon-sangandKim Ji-seok-Iappear in the first stills from MBC's upcoming sageuk,"Rebel Hong Gil-dong".
"Rebel Hong Gil-dong"is a twist on the story of the Joseon era thief, Hong Gil-dong, set in the time of the cruel king, Yeonsangun.Kim Ji-seok-Iwill be stretching his acting muscles as Yeonsangun, the most hated king of the Joseon era, whileYoon Gyoon-sangwill take on his first leading role as the titular thief. Instead of stealing from the rich, Hong Gil-dong will steal the hearts of the Korean people, uniting them against the tyrannical Yeonsangun.
I'm not a fan of sageuks, but I like the idea ofKim Ji-seok-Iplaying the villain. I'm also curious to seeYoon Gyoon-sangin a leading role, after he impressed viewers asLee Jong-suk's older brother in"Pinocchio", and as Moo-hyeol, one of the dragons in "Six Flying Dragons". Rounding out the cast isChae Soo-binas a widow with a grudge against the king, andLee Honeyas the king's calculating consort.
"Rebel Hong Gil-dong"will start its 30-episode run on January 30th, taking over the Monday-Tuesday time slot. I'll be checking in with this drama, if only to see if our two leading men can conquer the sageuk curse of terrible hair.
Love,
