During the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910), Choi Cheon Joong (Park Shi Hoo) is Korea’s leading fortuneteller and face-reading physiognomist – as well as a skilled gambler and martial artist. He is beloved by the people of the realm and is a fierce patriot.

However, he now faces his biggest challenge yet when he takes it upon himself to replace the corrupt regime running the country, hoping to elect in their place a virtuous young prince from a minor royal line. The prince, he believes, is the ideal man to take the Joseon throne.

He also identifies the realm’s ideal royal consort – a humble street girl.

As the duo proceeds with the audacious plan, they begin to develop feelings for one another...

King Maker: The Change of Destiny

👑 The Destined Kingdom 👑

Sung Han Mo (Song Kang Ho) is an ordinary barber and friendly neighbor. Although his shop is located in the same neighborhood as the Blue House, the Korean president's residence, Han Mo is largely uninterested in politics, more concerned with his wife and newborn son – he hardly notices the turmoil that unfolds in the 1960s after General Park Chung Hee takes over the country following President Syngman Rhee's resignation. However, Han Mo's politically ignorant life takes a sharp turn when he accidentally helps catch a spy in his barbershop, leading to his appointment as the president's official barber. This 2004 Korean movie was directed by Im Chan Sang.
