Will Six Flying Dragons drama be as successful as Tree with Deep Roots?

The new SBS TV drama Six Flying Dragons 육룡이 나르샤 is scheduled to be broadcasted after Mrs.Cop and its premiering for 50 episodes. This sageuk action drama will be having a good casts such as veteran actor Chun Ho Jin, Kim Myung Min, Yoo Ah In, Shin Se Kyung, Byun Yo Han, Yoon Kyun Sang and Jeong Yoo Mi. 

Considering the end of Yi Seo Gye whom is known as King Taejo, Prince Yi Bang Won (later who becomes King Taejong) is always on duel and conflict with the infamous advisor and supporter Jeong Do Jeon. Jeong prefers the country be ruled by court of ministers and advisors while Prince Yi Bang Won choses power than anything else.

Jeon collides a lot with 5th son, Bang Won questioning who is the rightful heir to the throne. Jeon prefers the 8th son Bang Seok to be the Crown Prince. This periodic drama will be focussing on the childhood and youthful Prince Yi Bang Won leading to his success of conquering the throne. 

It seems to be the year of Yoo Ah In- he's been in successful box office movies and now he's taking the lead role of Yi Bang Won. Shin Se Kyung plays the role as Boon Yi. Kim Myung Min takes the role of Jeong Do Jeon. This isn't the first time Kim playing sageuk as he was in Immortal Admiral Yi Soon Shin (2004) as the main hero. Chun Ho Jin will play as King Taejo. Byun Yo Han and Yoon Kyun Sang both play as bodyguards to two leading roles.

Historically Yi Seo Gye is torn between the love for his sons and country. When his 5th son takes the throne and started his absolute monarchy power. He has even executed a number of people to strengthen the royal authority. He hasn't spared his in laws and left none to hide. His son Yi Do (later becomes the Great King Sejong) was in despair seeing his father being so ruthless and vows to rule in his own way. 

We wish the team good luck and hopefully this periodic drama will bring us more action and thrill from Yoo Ah In himself. Personally I think he suits sageuk dramas... :D
