Im Hyun Shik

Orphaned at birth, Baek Dae Gil (Jang Geun Suk) has become a master gambler to survive. However, his true identity is a closely guarded secret: he's the eldest son of King Sukjong (Choi Min Soo), stolen away and presumed dead. King Sukjong’s other two sons, Yoon (Hyun Woo) and Yeoning (Yeo Jin Goo), are next in line to the throne, but they’re in constant conflict due to Yeoning’s mother’s lower-class status. Dae Gil and Yeoning’s paths intertwine when they both fall for Dam Seo (Lim Ji Yeon), a woman driven by a burning desire for revenge against the king. Dae Gil eventually proposes a wager: if he wins a bet, he becomes the king, but if he loses, he’ll pay with his life. Will he succeed, or will he come to regret his decision?

Watch out for landmines!

Despite her amazing voice, Kang Hanna (Kim Ah Joong) has never been able to make her dreams of becoming a pop star come true, as she is too overweight to survive in the image-obsessed celebrity world.
