Many details of "The King: Eternal Monarch", from plot to character names to even what network it will air on have been elusive. However, the script reading suggests that behind the scenes production is moving reasonably quickly.
"The King: Eternal Monarch" is a fantasy drama dealing with the interaction between two worlds - one a fantasy realm, and one that correlates to the modern one. It is Lee Min-ho's first project since finishing his mandatory military service and is expected sometime in 2020.
