Watch: Lee Junho And YoonA's Bond Unexpectedly Goes From Sour To Sweet In New "King The Land" Teaser

Jun 01, 2023

A wild fifth teaser has dropped for JTBC’s upcoming Saturday-Sunday drama “King the Land”!

“King the Land” will tell the story of the unlikely romance between Gu Won (2PM’s Lee Junho), a chaebol heir who can’t stand fake smiles, and the constantly smiling Cheon Sa Rang (Girls’ Generation’s YoonA), who becomes known as the “queen of smiles” while working her way up at the King Hotel.

The newest teaser begins with the awkward first meeting between Gu Won and Cheon Sa Rang, who are extremely different in every possible way. After she welcomes him with an over-the-top greeting, Gu Won tells her in a disapproving tone, “don’t smile.” She explains with a bright smile, “Just think of it as my uniform.” However, he quickly wipes the smile off her face when he adds, “If you smile, you’re fired.”

They continue to clash as time goes on, with Gu Won warning Cheon Sa Rang, “I’m pretty sure I told you not to fake smile.” Annoyed, Cheon Sa Rang responds, “I’m working right now.”

While Cheon Sa Rang must do everything she can to survive each day, Gu Won has lived his entire life like a king while being supported by everyone around him. Despite this obvious difference, Gu Won starts to grow attached to Cheon Sa Rang and becomes even more determined to win her over when she turns him down.

When Gu Won’s secretary Noh Sang Sik (Ahn Se Ha) jokes that others might assume Gu Won has a crush on Cheon Sa Rang, Gu Won denies it with a suspicious level of aggression.

Eventually, the two warm up to each other and their relationship starts to develop romantically. At the end of the teaser, they’re sitting outside together when Gu Won sweetly comments, “I will protect you.” Despite his intentions, the smallest sound sends him into a frenzy as he lets out a small cry and quickly hides behind Cheon Sa Rang.
