Lee Min Ho Talks About Chemistry With The Horse Maximus + Kim Go Eun Opens Up About Her Role


The lead cast of the hit drama "The King: Eternal Monarch" had an interview with "E-news Exclusive!"



The new fantasy romance drama by SBS network tells the story of two parallel worlds, one universe is a democracy, which is similar to modern-day Korea, and the other universe is a Korean empire ruled by a single monarch. Actor Lee Min Ho portrays the role of Emperor Lee Gon, who is the ruler of the Korean Empire, and actress Kim Go Eun plays the role of detective Jung Tae Eul in modern Korea. Both characters will hand in hand to protect the people they love and close the entry point between two universes.


Both the lead stars appeared on the April 22nd episode of "E-news Exclusive" and shared about their character preparation and their experiences. They were asked what they had leaned for their characters, to which Lee Min Ho replied that he worked hard at his skills in rowing, as well as in horseback riding. He added that portraying an emperor is not something one can prepare for. The MC then humorously asked if he meant that he already acquired an emperor's attitude, and Lee Min Ho responded with a laugh.


There was some footage shared on the show of Lee Min Ho filming while horseback riding. He discussed his screen partner, the beautiful horse named Maximus. The actor shared that he finds Maximus cute, saying that its nose becomes red whenever it feels cold. Also, Maximus enjoys the lemon-flavored candy that he also likes. When they are done with a scene, they would each have a piece of candy.


In another clip, Lee Min Ho seems worried at Maximus, looking a bit restless. He asked the staff if they could let go of Maximus for a bit if they're done filming as it's getting stressed. The actor was later shown telling Maximus, "You have to remember me," while staring into its eyes.

On the other hand, Kim Go Eun was asked about portraying a character of a detective for the first time. She said she felt great to be able to experience putting handcuffs on people. Lee Min Ho was surprised by her reply and both actors just laughed it off.


The actress explained that her previous roles were a person who gets chased, but now, she's the one putting handcuffs on them and smoothly taking them away. Kim Go Eun continued that she has been in some action films before, so she is a bit confident about taking this role too.

The two celebrities were also asked about the job they'd like to do in a parallel world if given a chance to choose.


The actress said she wants to be a doctor. She elaborated that she wanted to be a doctor if her skills were good enough. Lee Min Ho revealed that he wanted to be a balladeer, to which everyone responded with laughter. The actress then came to his defense and said Lee Min Ho has a very nice voice. Then, the interviewer expressed that he can reach for this dream in this universe, too, but the actor replied, "I think that would be difficult to do in this life."
