Volume 2
The epic story continues in Volume 2 with bitter in-fighting among the highest ranking eunuchs, impeachment trials, resignations, murder plots, secret love affairs, and vows to clean up government corruption. Most importantly, the king must choose one of his three concubines to become his new queen. Will he make the politically correct choice? Or will he choose So-hwa, the love of his life, against both his ministers' and his royal mother's wishes?
Volume 3
Loosely based on the life of Josun Dynasty's most famous eunuch, The King & I is a 63-episode historical TV drama that follows the tumultuous life of Kim Chuh-sun who faithfully served five different kings during his lifetime. Follow along as Chuh-sun's love, loyalty, and sacrifice change the course of Korean history.
So-hwa (Ku Hye Sun) is falsely accused and is forced to leave the palace. Despite Chuh-sun's (Oh Man Seok) desperate attempts to save her, he is forced to do the unthinkable. Chuh-sun protects and cares for So-hwa's son, who eventually becomes the new king. When the new king learns of his mother's awful plight, he and his advisors make everyone pay. With the country in turmoil, will Chuh-sun's pleas to the king be enough to stop the madness?
