5th Teaser for The King: Eternal Monarch Showcases Huggy Romance with Lee Min Ho and Kim Go Eun

I feel like Lee Min Ho just keeps getting richer and more powerful on the small screen, lol. One would have thought his Gu Jun Pyo in Boys Before Flowers was Richie Rich to the max already but then he becomes the One Who Wears the Crown as Kim Tan in Heirs that someone is even richer. And now he’s not just a rich heir he’s top of the royal food chain as The King: Eternal Monarch, and it’s probably all because Lee Min Ho just perfectly fits that emotionally tortured rich/royal manboy aura. Not complaining, it’s a typecast that continues to work for me and I’m super excited for The King, the new 5th teaser drops new scenes and that puts Lee Min Ho in what appears to be a white royal uniform like a naval officer and yum can I have some more please.

  • I used to think kim go eun is tall lol. She is such a natural beauty.
    And lmh looks so dashing and royal❤??????? they look good together ❤
    Storyline looks interesting. Studio dragon has reportedly spend a lot in cgi etc. So i hope it does well?????
    Second lead actress is beautiful as well.

    • She's actually got quite a decent height (about 5'6" I think?) It's just that LMH is VERY tall lol.

      I like the height difference, it looks good.

  • Lols at lee minho got richer.. but i kinda agree and that's why i laugh so hard right now. He has that aura, crazy rich asian... lol.

    Cant wait for this drama. I need something to replace Mr Sunshine as my fave KES' drama. Well, i like most of her projects tho.

      • And he's handsome. Has a good body. Lols. Not a fan, but i like looking at handsome guys. Cant wait for this drama.

        But for me, he looks super dashing as the city hunter. I seriously miss him in an action drama. Please comeback with thriller action drama. Please act as a police officer or an antihero. Darn, he has that sexy aura. Well, he literally has powerful aura ;)

      • @yui in january in one magazine he said his body has been hit for all work he did in 20s. And that accident in his teens is now showing bad affect on him. I think after king he will shoot endorsements some time bcoz drama really r hectic. I can see him gong yoo way.. i hope he takes care of his health. As a fan that is i wish

  • Honestly, in all the teasers, i have yet to see LMH having the desire to showcase his acting which was the trait that captivated me to him in BOF apart from his charisma on screen. Since then it seems he is always more conscious with his look, its like his main focus is to appear good looking more than being recognized for his acting. Its really such a pity. He got the x-factor but i often got disturbed when he's being looks-conscious. I wish i was fooled by these teasers, and that in the drama he doesnt come off like this.. I'm excitedly but nervously looking forward to the premiere. Hope its good, really!

    • @Wanne Looks-conscious acting is spot on! Imagine being an actor for nearly 2 decades and still acting the same way lmao. He's on par with idols bashed here, but at least they were never pure actors to begin with.

      • ummm what? LMH may not be the greatest actor in kdramaland, I have said it myself that there are others in his age group who have more acting skill....

        but the man at least has a baseline level of acting ability, he can act. Claiming he's on par with the kind of idols who get criticised here for bad acting is complete nonsense, and this "pure actor" thing is nonsense too.

        When someone is the lead of a drama, is the audience supposed to excuse a crappy acting performance by looking up the actor and going "oh well they are an idol, it's ok if their acting is bad"? If these idols want to be lead actors and are taking lead roles, they should be prepared to face the same judgment that an actor will face instead of hiding behind the "idol" tag to excuse poor acting.

      • funny woozy fan talking about his skills when he has done gangnam blues faith, bof which is considered best act by that manga male lead, city hunter which is full action role. And at same time excusing idol bcoz u stan one showpiece called woozie lmaoo. He is good actor but ur fave is a showpiece even after 10 years and everyone makes fun of her lmaoo

      • And woozy fan dont compare a golden spoon served on platter where her company funded her career to a self made star like lmh who auditioned and won role from thousands!
        He is much better than ur idol actress will ever be. worry about her sinking career

  • Tbh his acting is boring for me. I knew him from BOF and his acting there impressed me so I watched all his dramas after that but I found his acting still the same as 2009, not worse, not better, he's still handsome to look at, he acted his role well but it's just lacking something I can't explain. He also took the safe road with roles in his comfort zone, nothing wrong with it because he's famous with these roles but sometimes I wish he takes more risk to challenge himself and grow as actor because I used to like him very much

    • @dia What do you expect him to do? Refuse big budget productions to act in some low budget production acting like poor man and edgy fans will call it good acting??
      His acting in gangnam blues was nothing same , hardcore gangster movie and won him best new actor. His role was in faith very different . But people didn't like the drama much. Whereas city hunter has no similarity with other work and it was full of action scenes.
      In lotbs many people said jjh will overshadow him but it was opposite.

    • I am in the same boat....I loved LMH in BOF...he was the only good thing about it. I think since he's so popular he gets the same boring princeling kind of role. I want to see him play a wild playboy or a charismatic chef....I have a feeling his agency , his handlers are advising him to play it safe and make the money and he's very popular and can do what the hell he wants...so ....

    • You are damn right whatever you said is right sometimes i wish he take more challenging role but still he is in his comfort zone and i think the king: eternal monarch is no exception so my only wish is to see him showcase his acting abilities started watching kdrama because of him

  • Anyone knows who d actor is in blue tshirt with intense expressions? in the banner where koalas has written i will talk about dramas etc.. He is cute. Thanks in advance

  • They look great together. KGE has such a radiant beauty. Can't wait to see my girl with LMH.
