Product Information

* Special Features:
- Making Of
- Trailer

Director: Lee Joon-ik

At the height of the 16th-century Chosun Dynasty, a pair of rural male actors-boisterous, macho Jang-seng and quiet, feminine Gong-gil - travel to Seoul and team up with a struggling acting troupe. When their irreverent show - complete with enough bawdy humor and gender-bending to make a contemporary audience blush - mocks the famously hddonistic king, they get more than they bargained for. After being promptly arrested, they're given a chance to spare themselves if they can make the king laugh. To everyone's surprise, the ecstatic monarch loves the show and names the actors official court jesters, giving them more extravagant food and shelter than they'd ever imagined. But the king's attentiveness to Gong-gil makes it quickly apparent that humor isn't the only thing motivating his generosity. The king's mistress, the country's ministers and Jang-seng soon grow suspicious, and jealousy and anger spring from all sides.

 Excellent Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I have had this movie for over a year and just did not feel like seeing it even though I know this is a famous movie. Then I saw Lee in the movie "My girl" and I was still not very impressed with him but has more interest in seeing this movie. I was "wowed" by this movie instantly once I started watching it . The script is fantastic. Very few movies keeps my interest like this one. I watch the whole movie in one setting and enjoy every minute of it. Kudos to the entrie cast .

 You will Love it :) Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
"King and The Clown" basically talks about what is called the happiness. The king is often depressed, anxious, unstable because of the shadow of his family tragedy in the past. And the situation is changed when he is interested to a "pretty" clown from a group of singing & dancing street-performers. Yes, the king finds back his happiness. However, he doesn't realize that his intimate relationship with his beloved clown will lead to... other tragedies. This gay-theme movie, besides has a strong plot, is also visually artistic. It's stunning from begin to end. Truly an excellent Korean drama movie!

 You will love it! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
"King and the Clown" succeeds because it tells a wonderful, gripping, eye-catching, chin-dropping story of two street-performing friends who end up becoming court jesters to a mentally unstable king. The movie never cheapens the story, never sensationalizes the story. It stays honest, truthful, and powerful by sticking to its theme of friendship.

What a great story! What a great movie! "King and the Clown" will appeal both to fans of high-brow art films and popular entertainment movies. I recommend it very highly.

 A Great Film!......... Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
King and The Clown got me thinking for a while. I think I've finally got it that love is innocent, unexpected and a little burry sometimes. Only this time the protagonists are all male. The director is very artistic and has shown great depths in this movie. He is no doubt first rate. I like the commentary that he makes against social injustics. To me the saddest and haunting part of the movie is watching the plight of the protagonists and street performers whose survival hinged on the whim of an unstable and neurotic king.

Lee Jun Ki did an outstanding job at such young age. I like him a lot. Watching this movie once is enough for me because it is really sad despite the fact that it is very entertaining.

 a must see film Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I know this film has been out on market for a while, I was hestitate to see because the front cover shown male actor looks womanlike. I finally see this and it capture all my attention thru out the movie, not only its great actors and story line. It's shown the society between wealthy and poor. I'm extemely satify for watching this movie and I wish I should see this earlier.
