Hello Venus original member Kwon Nara will become an undercover government worker in the upcoming historical drama of KBS 2TV titled "Secret Royal Inspector!"

The series takes place at the end of the Joseon era, and its story will revolve around Sung Yi Gyum, portrayed by Kim Myung Soo, who topped the state examination and got a job at the Hongmungwan (administrative and research department). He is a free-spirited man who doesn't seem to care about his future - he doesn't have a goal or ambition in life.

One day, Sung Yi Gyum was caught doing an illegal act. He was sanctioned, and as punishment, he was assigned to work as a secret royal inspector. After which, he carries out his new job with the help of his sidekick Park Chun Sam and Hong Da In.

 If you don't know, a secret royal inspector is a real government position given to a person during the Joseon dynasty era. The king himself appoints individuals in this position because they serve as the king's eyes and ears. They travel the provinces in disguise to investigate and take down the corrupt government officials.
