Yoo Seung Ho transforms in Ruler of the Mask.

In the recent episodes of Ruler of the Mask drama, main lead Yoo Seung Ho who plays the real Crown Prince Lee Sun has left the palace life to investigate further on the mysterious truth of Pyungsoo Group trying to rule the Joseon dynasty.

Five years after the death of his parents, the Crown Prince and his bodyguard Chong Woon ventured into the paddlers organisation while working their way through to earn trusts and loyalty from the traders. Indeed it proved their fruit of success as the Crown Prince becomes the Chief of Paddler. When he saves Lady Ga Eun again from the annoying Pyungsoo baddies, she wonders why he denies he isn't Master Chun Soo whom she met many years back. She misses him terribly however he has a mission to carry out without revealing his true identity. Currently the Crown Prince is not donning on royal robes or his mask, he is often seen in different hair style and wardrobes.


Once again he meets Hwa Gun- the evil Dae Mok's grand daughter who now controls the port trading merchant businesses. She is fluent in Japanese and trades with foreign investors. Hwa Gun is excitedly happy to know the Crown Prince is alive but living as a new identity. Crown Prince doesn't know that Hwa Gun belongs to Pyungsoo Group. 

As for commoner Lee Sun, poor him living in the palace for the past 5 years was like hell. He had to rely on an antidote from Dae Mok who controls him if he does anything against his wishes. He misses his family so much with his loyal guard informing him about his mother doing business with a little sister.Viewers are brought to the attention that living in the palace was no fun compared to being starving as a poor man. Especially been controlled by a devil like Dae Mok who is the master mind behind the Bureau of Water Supply and now he intends to print more coins- to control the economy.

INFINITE's L has done a fine job as the impostor of the King. Meanwhile Yoo Seung Ho is a super eye candy and as usual his great acting skills portrayed well he has matured from a childish Crown Prince to someone where everyone follows and looks up to.
As for Kim So Hyun and Yoon So Hee's characters- they have yet to develop further. 
There is some comic relief from Master Woo Bo whom often indulges in rice wine along with the small officer who is now head over heels of the gisaeng. Haha!
