This is one of the most excellent horror series ever produced. The show, starring Ju Ji-Hoon and Bae Doona, is about how after a king's death, rumors spread that he is no longer alive. Then his son, Crown Prince Lee Chang (Ju Ji-Hoon), embarks on a quest to learn the truth about his father's illness.

The entire cast and team did an outstanding job on everything from the direction to the costumes to the cinematography and performances. This show is ideal for everyone who enjoys horror and thrillers.

 

 

Mr. Sunshine is emotional, hilarious, educated, and passionate in equal measure. The program stars Lee Byung-Hun and Kim Tae-Ri and tells the story of Eugene Choi (Lee Byung-Hun), a little boy who is born into slavery who flees to America in 1871. Eugene Choi (Lee Byung-Hun), a captain in the United States Marine Corps, returns to his homeland on a mission after a few decades. He later falls in love with Go Ae-Shin (Kim Tae-Ri), a noblewoman with ties to a gang of Korean independence warriors. The show depicts an incredible love story set in the early 1900s. Mr. Sunshine's creators did an excellent job depicting the collision of cultures, honors, and values. For all history romantics, this presentation is a visual feast.
