The King’s Warden Park Ji Hoon and Yoo Hae Jin Poster Unveils a Tragic Joseon Friendship

A deposed boy king and his rugged protector share a bond that defies their status. The upcoming film The King’s Warden has released official posters, highlighting the emotional weight of one of Korea's most heartbreaking historical periods.

The King’s Warden Park Ji Hoon and Yoo Hae Jin Poster: Visualizing Exile

The newly unveiled posters feature Park Ji Hoon and Yoo Hae Jin in a somber, misty setting. Park Ji Hoon portrays King Danjong, the 6th king of the Joseon Dynasty, who was forced off the throne at the tender age of 12. Opposite him, Yoo Hae Jin takes on the role of an unlikely warden who forms a deep connection with the exiled monarch in the remote mountains of Cheongnyeongpo.

Historical Tragedy Meets Cinematic Imagination

The film explores the "hidden story" of the young king's life in exile. While the history is well-documented, The King’s Warden focuses on the human element—the friendship between the boy who lost everything and the man tasked with watching him. Critics expect a powerhouse performance from the veteran Yoo Hae Jin and the rising star Park Ji Hoon, who has been steadily building his reputation as a serious actor.
