The historical epic series Kim Suro is in the thick of filming as it nears its May 29 premiere (to replace MBC’s weekend drama series The Man Called God), and we’ve got more stills to show for it. Such as Seo Ji-hye, above, dressed as the part of King Suro’s bride, Heo Hwang-ok, who becomes the first queen of the Kaya nation.
In addition to Ji Sung as the titular Suro and Yoo Oh-sung as his main rival (with Lee Pil-mo acting the part of former friend and later enemy), the drama also features a cast of familiar faces with veterans like Lee Jong-won of East of Eden and Lee Won-jong of Partner (whose names I always get mixed up).
And also! Badass Bae Jong-ok! (Bae (The World They Live In) plays Suro’s mother, who is sent away from the battlefield by her husband to safety while pregnant with Suro.)

first pic soooo pretty!!! looove the hanbok ( i think??) such pleasing colours!! loool at the facial hair on men! i’ve never seen too many men with a ‘stache or a beard in the trendies!
am looking forward to Ji Sung and Seo Ji Hye, both talented actors, they’re surrounded by familiar faces. Much luck to all in this drama.
This looks so exciting. I don’t think any subbing groups have picked this up though.
swallow the sun reunion? seo ji hye in the photo looks old. although it was 3 yrs ago when i saw her in shin don. i hope that acting will be solid in order for them to beat chuno. because chuno’s actors did an amazing job.
man, the colors of the first hanbok are so vibrant and pretty!!
hmm, and lee jong won and lee won jong…those names would definiteley easily get mixed up.
Bae Jong-ok looks so badass. Woot woot.
Is it just me or does this look kinda Lord of the Rings-y? Awesome XD
Seo Ji Hye looks gorgeous… As usual
I hope her talents will be recognized through this drama!
i like Seo Ji Hye…..maybe i will watch this
Why did they cast a Korean girl to play Heo Hwang-ok? Heo was from India.
I think keeping true the actual history would have made the story even more interesting. Heo Hwang-ok would have brought her ladies-in-waiting, bodyguards, servants etc introducing Indian customs to Kaya. I think the interactions between the Indians and the Kayans would make great epic fiction.
