 Yook Sungjae's first historical drama challenge! Transforming into a two-person role in 'Guigung'...Script Reading Site Revealed
Actors Yook Sung-jae and Kim Ji-yeon are the main characters of the fantasy romantic comedy 'Going Palace', raising expectations for SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama.

SBS unveiled the script reading scene on the 6th, in which the leading actors of 'Going Palace' (script Yoon Soo-jung, director Yoon Sung-sik) participated. 'Gwigung' is a fantasy six-body battle romp that takes place when Yeori (Kim Ji-yeon), a shaman who rejects the fate of Yeongmae, and Kang Cheol-yi Lee, who is trapped in the body of Yeori's first love Yun Gap (Yook Sung-jae), intertwines with the octagonal ear that has a grudge against the royal family.

Director Yoon Sung-sik, who directed 'Queen Cheolin', 'The Best Yi Sun-shin' and 'Gakshital', and writer Yoon Soo-jung, who wrote 'The King's Face' and 'Excited Go', joined forces with this work. On top of that, it is attracting attention with solid acting skills and fresh combinations of casting, including Yook Sung-jae, Kim Ji-yeon, Kim Ji-hoon, and special appearance Kim Young-kwang.




In the released script reading scene, the actors saved the atmosphere of the play with immersion comparable to the actual filming. In particular, despite being his first historical drama challenge, Yook Sung-jae naturally played the two roles of one person, perfectly expressing the conflicting character of the friendly Geomseogwan Yoon Gap and the evil god Lee Mugi Kang Cheol-yi, who has lived for a thousand years.

Kim Ji-yeon also deeply portrayed the strong and delicate emotions of the shaman. In particular, he delicately expressed his complex feelings toward Yun Gap and Lee Weapon Kang Cheol-yi, who were possessed by Yoon Gap, and increased his immersion.

Yook Sung-jae and Kim Ji-yeon maximized the fun of the play by thoroughly digesting the comical 'tikitaka' that bicker with each other to the subtle emotional lines in which romance sprout. Attention is focusing on how the chemistry between the two's first love and bad relationship will create synergy.




Kim Ji-hoon will play the role of Lee Seong, a fictional king, and show strong leadership against political struggles for the country and its people. In addition, it is expected to maximize the three-dimensional charm of the character by adding a loving paternal love to protect the family.

In addition, actors with solid acting skills, such as Gil Hae-yeon, Kim In-kwon, Son Byeong-ho, Han Soo-yeon, Han So-eun, Shin Seul-ki, Lee Won-jong, and Cho Han-kyul, increased the completeness of the play and doubled the immersion.

The production team said "It was a script reading scene where the tight composition of the script and the fantastic chemistry of the actors stood out``````````````.




SBS' new Friday-Saturday drama 'Going Palace' will premiere in April.
