Jang Dong Yoon and Kim So Hyun are Twin Beauties in First Posters for KBS Drama The Tale of Nokdu

Dang, the boy and the girl are both so pretty! The first character posters are out for the KBS sageuk drama The Tale of Nokdu based on a popular manhwa. Starring Jang Dong Yoon and Kim So Hyun, it’s the classic (in manga world) cross-dressing romance that has entertained viewers many times before with trendy dramas like Moonlight Drawn by Clouds, Sungkyunkwan Scandal, You’re Beautiful, Coffee Prince, To the Beautiful You, and well you get the drift. It’s been done a lot but if done right hits a sweet spot of hijinks and angst. This time Jang Dong Yoon of A Poem a Day plays a rich son escaping an arranged marriage and cross-dresses as a widow to hide out in a widow village. He falls for tomboyish gisaeng in training played by Kim So Hyun and OMG I can picture the cute bickering romance to come not to mention doubling down on the pretty because both look so lovely dressed as ladies in the character posters already.

  • Dong Yoon surprisingly does look pretty esp in this teaser poster!

    Kim So Hyun looks divinely beautiful with short hair. She was a delight in love alarm, looking forward to her role here. I may be wrong but I don’t think she ever played a tom boy character before.

    • I don't think she has either and I loved her so much in love alarm its great to see the drama become a huge hit across the OTT platform both in Korea and international. Jang dongyoon has won me over by how beautiful he is here. I'm so invested in this drama now and the posters are nicely laid out. The background is neat and puts all the focus on the actors who are shining with their visuals and expressions.

    • Love alarm was crazy addictive had to watch the whole thing in one go didn't even sleep till 4 am because of it.

    • Doesn't he look like a mix of Seo Ye Ji and Shin Se Kyung? Really beautiful! I'm so impressed by how they transformed both him and Kim So Hyun! They both look amazing!

  • This is possibly the best transformation I've seen in dramaland. Both the actors and their team of makeup artists and hair stylists deserve praise for this. Wow.

    • I've been looking at this poster over and over again and I still can't believe that's actually a male. How is he this pretty? Not just the make up even his expressions are feminine. Impressive.

  • Congratulations to KSH for the hit that is Love Alarm! Its so well received and trending worldwide! Go get that popularity girl! I'm glad I don't have to pick a team for Nokdu! These posters are jackpot!

  • OMG!!!! JANG DONG YOON IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!! :D

    And of course So Hyun is always pretty even as a short hair tomboy ;)

  • I almost can't believe it's him. Jang Dong Yoon. He looks so pretty. Sure this picture hasn't been photoshopped? lol

    • Damn it's true I would believe if you said it was Photoshop! Lol! This drama looks nice I must watch it!
