The King and the Clown
Jang-seng and Gong-gil are co-workers, and the one and only true friend to each other, who belong to the same acting team on the road in the 1500s during the Chosun Dynasty. But being indignant of Gong-gil's falling prey to the powerful and rich nobleman as a pervert, Jang-seng persuades Gong-gil to come to Seoul for a big show site to make money on their own. Jang-seng, with distinguished leadership and unparalleled acting skills, in addition to his creative ideas for the shows, turns into a leader of an acting team on the road and leads his team to hit the jackpot by playing a show about the King, who takes no heed of his country but goes on the racket and his lady, femme fatale, Nok-soo. Jang-seng's team makes a lot of money and it feels like almost the happiest moment of their lives. But they are all arrested for insulting the royal king.
