On 16th May, SBS's drama Jackpot (Daebak) screened its recent episode where Baek Dae Gil - played by Jang Geun Suk is writing down a new history. He is showing a constantly evolving character of the Baek Dae Gil. It has been rather intriguing since he has been challenging himself for this new role. The last sageuk period drama he did was 8 years ago in Hong Gil Dong and Hwang Jin Yi. This time Jang has proven he has portrayed Baek Dae Gil who is mysterious in character but with passion to succeed.
The day when Prince Yeoning played by Yeo Jin Gu also found out from his mother Consort Choi that his elder brother isn't dead. He snapped back at his mother that his brother is Dae Gil and still alive.
Yeoning questions his father Sukjong why he has sent Dae Gil to search for Gae Jak Du. He only understands that Dae Gil is bodyguard Kim Che Gun's disciple and his friend. However Sukjong coldly tells him that they are merely his 'hunting dogs' so these people cannot be friends.
Baek Dae Gil found out a shocking truth about his birth secret from his enemy Yi In Jwa played by veteran Jeon Kwang Ryul. Dae Gil has learned the fact that his biological father is not the measly gambler Baek Man Geum but the nation's ruler- King Sukjong! He refused to believe that Consort Choi is his birth mother and his father is not Baek Man Geum.
The tension is rising whether Baek Dae Gil will remain in the palace as friends with Prince Yeoning.
