Kim Young Dae Stars in His First Historical Drama 'The Forbidden Marriage'

Kim Young Dae is gearing up for his small-screen comeback with the historical-romance series, "The Forbidden Marriage." On October 25, broadcasting company MBC released the drama's first-ever stills showcasing the actor's character transformation.

From being a superstar in tvN's "Shooting Stars," Kim Young Dae is ready to meet the viewers with his new persona as the Majesty King of Joseon in "The Forbidden Marriage."

The historical series is based on a web novel of the same name, where a marriage fraudster appears in front of the king, who lost his beloved wife and ordered a ban on marriage.

Kim Young Dae takes the role of King Lee Heon, a lover and king of Joseon who can do anything for his beloved woman.

When he was still a crown prince, he lost his wife and suffered from a deep sorrow. One day, he met a matchmaker named So Rang (Park Ju Hyun), who could show Lee Heon's wife's spirit.

Meanwhile, in the photos provided by MBC, Kim Young Dae completely transformed into Lee Heon, the brave king of Joseon. The king's dignity is emitted from his appearance sitting on the bed wearing a red traditional hanbok.

His intense gaze makes him look unapproachable. In addition, the photo of the actor pulling the bow with all his might and staring vividly at his target gives a solemn atmosphere.

"The Forbidden Marriage" marks Kim Young Dae's first historical series, and seeing him in a Korean traditional costume makes his appearance notable. Apart from his solemn aura, Lee Heon's bright charm is expected to show as he creates a beautiful appearance with his new character.

In addition, the drama's production team shared that since it is Kim Young Dae's first sageuk drama, he is working hard to show his king character and delivers every line with the right emotions.

Before the report ended, the representative added that viewers should anticipate the chemistry between the drama's lead stars Kim Young Dae, Park Ju Hyun, and Kim Woo Seok.

Furthermore, "The Forbidden Marriage" starts airing this coming December 9 on MBC and will occupy the Friday and Saturday slots at 10 p.m. (KST).
