Another comedy movie will be released this summer, Joo Ji Hun’s comeback project “I Am The King”. The poster and the trailer already released, and the movie ready released on August.

From the poster I’m getting convinced that this movie inspired  by Mark Twain’s masterpiece “The Prince and the Pauper”, because the poster is not too different with the cover of that book (I’ve got one on my bookshelf) the pauper sitting on the throne, and from the trailer i bet this movie will be full of comedy scenes.

Frankly i’m quite surprised finding Joo Ji Hun gets comical here. I know, this is not his first comedy genre. Before he played on “Naked Kitchen” and “Antique Bakery”, those movies on light romantic and comedy genre indeed, but as i remember i never saw him looks so hilarious as in this movie.

Okay, i can’t wait for this August, waiting for Joo Ji Hun’s comeback and also because there will be more comedy movies that will be released.

After he failed to joined on musical “Doctor Zhivago” due to his health, finally Joo Ji Hoon decided to come back on  big screen soon. On January 19th, The Keyeast  (Ji Hoon’ agency) annouced that after taking a rest to recover his health finally on January 18th, Joo Ji Hoon agreed to come back. He confirmed to be acting on new fictional sageuk movie “I Am The King”.

“I Am The King” is fictional story about the young King Sejong (before he’s crowned as a King), so this movie doesn’t based on true history. Before being a King, Sejong switched his identity become a beggar. whooaaa…i feel de javu with this, so Mark Twain, not too different with Lee Byung Hun’s movie “The King of Chosun”. (guys…frankly i’m getting bored with the “King” matter, because lately too much projects with the word “King”, what happen here??? )

This movie will be Joo Ji Hoon’s first project after his drug scandal on 2009 and his duty for two years. As i know his latest project was “Naked Kitchen” (2009) alongside with Shin Min Ah. Now  I hope the public give him the second change to proof that he already paid his mistake and becomes a better person.  Welcome back , Ji Hoon-ssi..so nice to see you again on the  screen
