The veil of actor Lee Byung Hun in his first historical work, film 'Masquerade,' has been uncovered.
'Masquerade' is a film about Chosun's King Kwang Hae on the brink of being poisoned and the episodes that follow low-class Ha Sun disguising himself as the king. It is the hidden story of a 15-day period that has vanished from history.
In addition to the film being his first historical genre attempt, Lee Byung Hun will play two roles. 'Masquerade' is currently attracting attention for its grave tension and dramatic story, as the main trailer portrays the overwhelming charisma of Korea's representative actors.
The main trailer begins with the image of King Kwang Hae, and followed by the meeting of Heo Kyun and Ha Sun, as the music becomes louder and the speed intensifies. Ha Sun enters the palace and appears in front of the king as a splitting image.
'A man who shouldn't be a king becomes the king of Chosun,' film 'Masquerade' stars Lee Byung Hun, Han Hyo Joo, Kim In Kwon, and Shim Eun Kyung. Audiences can anticipate a spectacular synergy created by the stars' acting abilities as well as a strong story line.
'Masquerade' will premiere this coming Chuseok.
