"Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung" Releases 1st Character Posters

MBC has revealed the first posters for upcoming drama “Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung”!

“Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung” is a fictional historical drama set in the Joseon Dynasty in the 19th century that tells the story of women who were frowned upon for writing historical records. The drama will fight against outdated prejudice on the basis of gender and social status and show the value of change.

Shin Se Kyung will play Goo Hae Ryung, a brave, bright, and problematic intern historian who challenges and ultimately plans to overturn the values of her society. ASTRO’s Cha Eun Woo will take on the role of lonely Prince Yi Rim who has never dated anybody. Although second in line to the throne and a popular romance novelist, the prince lives isolated from the rest of the world.

Cha Eun Woo’s and Shin Se Kyung’s individual posters have been released first.

Shin Se Kyung’s poster says “I am now meeting His Majesty as a historian.”

Cha Eun Woo’s poster says “I.. have no intention of sending you away.”

The first episode is set to air on July 17 at 8:55 p.m. KST.
