Synopsis
Based on a fictional book about a Robin Hood in Korea,Hong Gil Dong, this drama is very loosely based off of that book and the time it was set in.
Hong Gil Dong is the bastard son of a minister. He spends most of his time lazing the day away and taking goods from the various merchants. However, a local monk think he’s destined to be more. Hong Gil Dong, for his part, really dislikes the injustices in this ranked world.
Heo Yi Nok has returned to Korea, fresh from China. She’s an upbeat, naive and carefree girl. She’s been living with her grandfather for the last few years. They both are merchants looking to make a fortune back in Korea.
Lee Chang Hwi, however, has been told since he was young that he’s the rightful king of Korea. He bumps into Heo Yi Nok. This initially causes misunderstanding between them, but over time his heart is softening towards her.
Meanwhile Heo Yi Nok and Hong Gil Dong are developing a friendship that feels like (at least to Yi Nok) that it could be more.
As the question of rightful succession comes into play, Hong Gil Dong and Yi Nok are forced to take sides.

Took a peek at the 1st ep. KJH is very funny, so is Sung Yuri. KJH kinda of reminded me of the HK actor Stephen Chow Seng Chi. KJH, Keep it up, U will be one of the best comedian in Korea & Asia.
January 10th, 2008 at 1:59 pm

January 24th, 2008 at 10:47 am
does anyone know the romance storry in this story ~!?!?!
January 25th, 2008 at 7:45 pm
Too bad I didn’t catch the pilot ep last Wed. I really like Kang Ji Hwan, he’s good in romantic comedies. I think Yung Su Ri’s acting is a little better here. I didn’t like her so much in The Snow Queen. Looking forward to finishing the whole series.
January 29th, 2008 at 11:51 pm
i love Jang Geun Suk in this drama. he’s so hot. LOL.
January 31st, 2008 at 1:23 pm

i have watch a few episodes of hong gil dong and i am loving the story plot. i love all the cast in this drama!
February 1st, 2008 at 2:37 am
I cant believe that I am now looking forward every week for new episodes of HGD. At first I am a bit hesitant to watch this drama but now I LOVE LOVE HGD. He is so lovable and so is Enok. I love her in Snow Queen. Tonight is the 10th ep. can’t wait.
BTW, thank you Javabeans (www.dramabeans.com) for the wonderful summary. If not for your summaries I wouldn’t be able to understand the video.
February 12th, 2008 at 9:22 am
I really love this drama^^ I watching this drama every wednseday and thursday in korea. I didn’t know that so many foreigner freinds waited it until enter here~ HGD fighting^^a
February 14th, 2008 at 1:16 pm
I hope someone could work out the english subtitles for this great drama!
February 17th, 2008 at 1:15 pm
I’ve watched up to Ep 14. I LOVE HGD! The last time I was engaged in a drama was Coffee Prince. Sung Yuri has talent and portrays her abilities in this drama. Really…to go from a frigid character in Snow Queen to a goofy/cute character in HGD. I was hesitant at first but as the episodes picked up…I was hooked, line and sinker. Highly recommended. Oh yeah! Check out Javabeans (www.dramabeans.com). They do a spectactular job of recapping the episodes even when the english subs are not out yet.
for EASY: WITH S2 has released eng subs up to Ep12.
February 20th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
i really love this drama
i think this drama is the best for this year
the story is very uniqe
February 21st, 2008 at 10:43 am
This drama is getting better and better, is very unique, funny and interesting.
Wow Sung Yuri did a wonderful job here, she is so adorable and kind.
Keep up the good job HGD.
February 22nd, 2008 at 8:14 am
Funny & unique kdrama. I love Kang Ji Hwan!!!, a very sensitive, versatile & flexible actor. Keep it up!!!
February 22nd, 2008 at 4:45 pm

Jang Geun Suk rules. He’s so cute. For those of you who don’t know who he is, he plays as Chang Hwui!!!
February 24th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
one of the best drama i have ever seen. it is getting more intresting as it goes on and i love all the cast
February 26th, 2008 at 4:19 pm
yea yea…. anybody can help on the english subtitles???
February 28th, 2008 at 12:38 am
hey there!!
this show has just been aired at kbsworld recently
and i gotta say that i simply like it
but why the rating is disappointingly low?
it has great plot,super funny and great cast
yuri’s performance is amazing-actually she’s the funny one-very different from her previous drama
love it!!
February 28th, 2008 at 4:00 pm
Great drama! Really really love it.. Definitely a great way to start off my 2008 with HGD 🙂
February 28th, 2008 at 8:21 pm
Wow i really like the way ooika describe her feeling for HGD drama.
I do find Sung Yuri extremely adorable in HGD, she has protray her character well, very different each time she participate in all her dramas. But honestly I love her acting most in Snow Queen and HGD.
March 3rd, 2008 at 4:58 pm
Seems that HGD is going to end soon. I totally fall in love with this drama, very interesting and funny.
Sung Yuri is really awesome in this drama, so cute and pretty.
March 4th, 2008 at 10:39 am
Yup, this show is surprisingly good. The first few episodes were a bit frivolous & OTT but as the story develops, it became better & better… In fact, I would say it’s the best show so far this year!
There are a number of memorable characters to look out for, even those in supporting roles. There’s the teacher of HGD & the grandpa of Yi Nok who are really a hoot! There’s also the maniacal king played with much relish by the actor (don’t know his name). It’s also fun to see that particular minister who likes to boast & plays ‘golf’ – totally hilarious!
Of course KJH is great in his role as HGD but I feel he was more memorable in Capital Scandal…
The character I love the most is the naive & happy-go-lucky Yi Nok played with such aplomb by SYR. It is such a delight to watch her! Watch her thinking that the prince was interested in her when he wasn’t initially, watch her when she thought she’s a frail & delicate lady who faints (when actually she was poisoned), watch her with her grandpa, watch her banter with HGD… and you’ll know what I mean.
March 4th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
I don’t usually like period pieces (historical), however, I’m really enjoying this drama. Perhaps it’s the writing, this drama seems to have so much; comedy, romance, sorrow and intrigue. Characters are complex and well acted. SYR could not be more adorable, KJH is terrific and very believable as a hero, as well, in his various comedic characters, Bravo. The “Young Master” is very sullen and sexy… who does the heroine end up with??? Can’t wait to find out!
March 5th, 2008 at 11:10 am
I really like this TV series…. It’s a fussion of comedy, drama, history,romance , action and the colors plays a great deal in making the movie lively. The modern approach and the musical scoring is also great. I’am still waiting for the next episodes. I really can’t wait until the show finishes. I also hope that the subs will be out soon.
I love kang ji hwan … mhuaahh… I like his acting style. Of the many drama I have watch . HONG GIL DONG IS THE COMPLETE STUFF.
March 9th, 2008 at 5:08 pm
Wow this drama is getting more and more exciting. Sung yuri performance is excellent especially in episode 19, gave her 100 percent in her acting skill.
She deserves to be call a professional actress.
Hong Gil Dong drama rocks, the storyline is so well written and the casts are really awesome.
March 10th, 2008 at 10:20 am
I am now in Episode 20 waiting for 21… just cannot wait to see it
Yi Nok just simply adorable, I love her gullible character, she plays it very well
Gil Dong I must say I love him in this movie, so does Chang Whui
I really love this movie….
I am not much of a drama series person as I could never follow them daily but for youtube.com or mysoju.com…. you just blest me with this series that I could follow anytime….
March 14th, 2008 at 10:29 am
Also waiting for episode 21, don’t understand Korean, but I’m watching everything that comes out when it comes out, english subtitles are no… addicted to this drama!!!
SYR is absolutely adorable!!!! She’s my new favorite, move over Yoon Eun Hye (Coffee Prince fame…) I’m diggin both KJH & JGS as leading men, they are equally sexy, dark and brooding. Again, I cannot wait to see who she ends up with?????? The drama is well scripted as well as played.
March 14th, 2008 at 11:32 am
There are certainly many great characters in this show. But the star of this show is undeniably Sung Yuri!!!
Her acting has either improved tremendously since the days of her roles in Prince’s First Love & Snow Queen or this is the right type of role for her… Yi Nok is really her defining role. When I first saw her name in this show, I was a bit worried. Would she be able to do it? But she has more than shine in this show. In fact, I think she has managed to even steal the limelight from Kang Ji Hwan who is a fine actor & has done pretty well in this show too…
Way to go, Yuri!!!
March 14th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
i love hong gil dong!!!!
i can’t believe there are 3 ep left… what am i going to watch after that???*sobs*
i love kang ji hwan!! he’a a terrific actor!! can’t wait what he’ll do next.. anybody has any idea?
oh well, hope everybody’s enjoying this drama!
what a great way to start the year!!
March 20th, 2008 at 3:18 pm
yeah i’m kinda in love with this series right now (may sound a bit odd but drama “lovers” should understand. the leading characters all have great chemistry and their acting is superb. i’m starting to understand why people insisted on me watchin this. you seriously grow attach to all the characters especially sung yu ri’s role (favorit character by the way).
can’t wait to finish it..and to korean people..START VIEWING IT MORE AND MAKE IT NUMBER ONE!
March 22nd, 2008 at 4:25 pm

March 26th, 2008 at 5:45 am
Hong Gil Dong is THE BEST!!!
Never thought I would love this kind of drama. But surprisingly I totally fell in love with it from the first episode. I’ve been watching it in mysoju. Can’t wait for the upcoming episodes!!!
The storyline is just awesome and the leading characters do have such a great chemistry. I love Kang Ji Hwan the most. He’s such a natural actor. I enjoy his acting a lot!
March 28th, 2008 at 8:13 pm
The last few episodes were a disappointment. Instead of sticking to comedy, the story started to become too melodramatic & serious & it went quickly down the slippery slope thereafter… Such a pity!!! It was so enjoyable prior to that.
Nonetheless, it is still the best show in 2008 so far. But it’s early days as there are still many more months to go.
March 29th, 2008 at 12:53 pm
I must agree that the last couple of episodes are a little strange, they seem to have been hastily thrown together. Even the chemistry which was so wonderful was off the last few episodes. But it is definitely worth watching if for nothing else little miss Sung Yu Ri, she is marvelous!!
March 29th, 2008 at 11:57 pm
I simply love the young prince. He protrays his role well. The ending was lousy. Yik Nok should have ended as the queen.
April 4th, 2008 at 3:54 pm
I LOVE LOVE LOVIE THIS DRAMA! FAVORITEST ONE OF THIS YEAR !D
April 5th, 2008 at 8:45 am
aww it’s already ended
but here in malaysia there’s still 3 eps to go yay!!
i love,love,love this drama
but yeah,it’s getting a little complicated towards d end,wat’s wit chang hwi’s decision and all
but kang ji hwan is a very experienced actr and oh-so-good-looking
he was made for hgd’s role,and komawo to joo ji hoon for not taking the role..and sang yu ri’s prformance is splendid and promising?it’s a bit hard when u’ve been compared 2 yoon eun-hye,but i tink she’s improved.Jang Geun Suk is anothr kingka!love him
and love the ‘if’ song btw
April 22nd, 2008 at 5:21 am
i loved this episode from the beginning to the end. when i watch kdramas i never start it when it is in the process of being made because i will be on the computer and watch episode after episode until the drama is finished (it bugs me when i have to wait for the next episodes). this was the first drama i started when the first 12 episodes came out and waited for the rest. THIS DRAMA WAS THE BEST EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 26th, 2008 at 5:40 am
i love Jang Geun Suk !!!!!
аз съм от България това ми е първият корейски сериал но съм категорична че вече ще гледам само такива а за Jang Geun Suk
просто нямям думи страхотен.БРАВО
April 29th, 2008 at 6:42 pm
the last episode really really disappointing me!
but so far HGD make me cant stop watching it…
April 30th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
I realy like them.
especially the master of hong gil dong
he is really funny when he is laughing
May 5th, 2008 at 5:39 pm
hong gil dong shouldn’t have ended like that, seriously i didn’t like how it ended because there’s no such hong gil dong in modern korea, dunno perhaps…. it should have ended continuing the very first scene of theft on the first episode… “a few years before this” blah blah blah.. but anyhow the drama was delivered very nice and i like it so much.
I LOVE YOU GIL DONG A
May 6th, 2008 at 7:37 pm
Really..really goooooooood drama… and I like Kang ji hwan smile…… wait for your future drama….
May 7th, 2008 at 3:33 pm
man i luv diz series!!!!!
May 9th, 2008 at 9:59 pm
HGD is one of the best Kdrama ever!!! just love the chemistry btwn yinok and Gildong..sang yu ri gave her best best performance..just love her and KJW….love the dialogue especially from yinok..hehehe…but don’t get the ending coz in its first ep…it showed that the gang still alive???anyway i really enjoyed the show.
May 11th, 2008 at 8:17 pm
The stars of this show are undeniably Sung Yuri, Kang Ji Hwan and Jang Geun Suk, but I hv to say I love Sung Yuri the BEST as her performance here is outstanding, very versatile.
Miss Sung is so ……. adorable, kind, sweet , beautiful and funny here. She has awesome chemistry with both KJH and JGS, therefore I can’t choose which guy do I like Yuri to be with but the ending has already shown that Yuri and KJH ended up together.
Hong Gil Dong is the most entertaining and worth watching drama for the first half of 2008. HGD fighting.
All the best to SY, KJH and JGS and sincerely hope that they can co-operate in another drama.
May 24th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
this drama seem not like a past legend
there are mix between modern and traditional things
May 27th, 2008 at 2:14 pm

May 29th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
love this series coz of Kang Ji Hwan….you’ll never be called a k-drama addict if you’ll miss this one….simply the best among the best….
May 31st, 2008 at 2:53 pm
love the movie, hate the ending.
June 1st, 2008 at 10:38 am
Love this drama… Kang Ji Hwan is the best

June 8th, 2008 at 8:23 pm
i like this drama. both main characters here did their good job. the acting is superb. the series can be funny, romantic, drama, action etc. but the ending crack me up.. but all in all it’s good.. the best line here was ” I LOVE YOU” hehehe… how i wish there would be another season of this..
June 8th, 2008 at 9:34 pm
this is one of the best k-dramas ever!!!!!
and KJH and SYR , they look nice 2gether
June 11th, 2008 at 10:00 am
I luv the price, he is cute and acted well in this drama…
June 12th, 2008 at 2:32 pm
One of my favorite movies except for the ending was sad and disappointing.
June 19th, 2008 at 8:18 pm
This Drama Movie is so adorable. They said that the ending was sad & disappointing, but i don’t think so. Ending must follow the storyline & I think it was good for an ending, just like what will we face in the real life.
SEVEN THUMB’s UP for the casts..!!
I LOVE YOU HONG GIL DONG…!!
JIA YOU…!!!!!!
June 29th, 2008 at 1:01 am

This is a very funny drama, thumb up.
I totally fall in love with Sung Yuri and Kang Ji Hwan. They look very lovely in here, but the ending is a bit not to my expectation, but anyway love it.
Hope to see both the casts again as they look great together.

July 27th, 2008 at 8:23 pm

Thank you Kang Ji-hwan for playing the character of Gil Dong…..You gave us OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE!!!! I miss Gil Dong and Yi Nok, but I don’t want to watch them now, i’ll wait until I forgot the story and start all over again…..Woahhh….I want to feel that FEELING AGAIN……..That exciting feeling when there’s a cliffhanger!!! those tears whenever Gil Dong and Yi Nok struggles and that romantic feeling!!!

Walang makakatalo nito sa puso ko……To all the members who created Hong Gil Dong, I wished you luck and good health…….Thank you for giving us OUTSTANDING STORY…

I love this drama~~ Both the main actors reli did a good job in this drama..the chemistry between them are so romantic n touching~ i still hav three episodes to finish…From the comments written here, it seems like the ending not very satisfying…that’s kinda disappoint, anyway, it make me more eager to watch the ending~ Thumbs up for this drama!
August 5th, 2008 at 11:44 am
The ending reli not up to my expectation…kinda disappoint with the ending…But overall, the drama is good~
September 1st, 2008 at 9:37 am
there was a post drama show where the producers mentioned that they like to reflect on some social issues in the show eg. conscription, learning the language of the stronger nation etc. Hence this is not a pure, brainless comedy.
At that point in time, it is not possible for HGD to set up the kind of political system that he wanted, even though we may take this system for granted nowadays. Hence it is logical that he would be killed for his dream. Or would the audience rather see that he gives up the dream and live in china instead, like what many political exiles do?
The final section tries to link the whole drama back to the modern society as a closing. but i admit the execution is kind of cheesy and could have been done better.
September 23rd, 2008 at 2:38 pm
I am still on episode 20 of this drama. The story is very interesting, not a moment of feeling bored. The soundtrack is really lovely – “if” it sounded so sad, feeling like crying each time I listen to it
October 27th, 2008 at 12:29 am
thinks.but can i dawnloud the drama
November 1st, 2008 at 11:19 am
honestly, i don’t like the ending. well, for the fact that i like most the character of sung yuri and jang geun seok. I like them both a lot. they have better chemistry rather than kang jiwan. Sadly, this drama series is much focus on the love between hong gildong and yinok. hoping that sung yuri and jang geun seok be team up together in a drama series in the near future.
but in fairness, the show is good. all the characters acted superbly.
November 17th, 2008 at 3:56 am
This is the one of best movie that ive been see , very thanks to director and writer and casts specialy Hong gil dong and Sung Yu Ri .
November 17th, 2008 at 9:49 am
I just watched the last episode…
They died, but it was all good.
KJH and SYR did an awesome job!!!
One of my most favorite dramas ever!!!
November 20th, 2008 at 2:49 am
It is a much better drama than what I had expected it to be. There is a lot of slapstick comedy and I did not want it to end with a bloddy battle.
Thanks to the director we did not see the carnage and left it to our imagination. I liked the ending. Very good drama overall.
It was nice to see Sung Yuri play, for a change, a cheerful girl, in contrast to the pitiful roles she has played in her previous dramas. Kang Ji Hwan is charming (and a good actor) and was perfectly cast as Hong Gil Dong. Jang Geun Suk has a beautiful childlike face, and can act very well. He is six years younger than Yuri, but he plays a lot older character than her. Same in Beethoven Virus (another good drama).
November 28th, 2008 at 1:24 am
my favorite first &best kdrama
November 28th, 2008 at 1:27 am
loved acting of kjh & cute syr but drama has the worst possible ending
November 28th, 2008 at 1:35 am
greatest music ever . loved the voice of taeyeon & ost if. ost when it begins by kim yeon woo is also one of my favorite track although it didn’t get much attention if anyone knows english lyrics please let me know
thanks in advance
November 30th, 2008 at 2:45 pm
I really loved this drama especially Prince Chang Hui….
December 2nd, 2008 at 10:41 pm
i like this drama very much but i’m very disponted cannot down load or watch through internet!
December 5th, 2008 at 6:05 pm
Some said the ending is not good, i guest their wrong. Maybe if you have time try to watch agian and think what it means to us..
December 9th, 2008 at 8:51 am
hope i can see this drama..huhu..im really want to see sung yu ri act in this drama style..
December 12th, 2008 at 1:47 am
my most favorite k drama
December 12th, 2008 at 2:07 pm
i started to like this drama..but it’s too late because i didn’t see this drama from the beginning..first i thought it going to be boring…but in the end…i was wrong.. i regret it so much…..i’m such a stupid girl
December 23rd, 2008 at 12:11 am
I really like this drama. It has a good story. Handsome and beautiful actors, and great acting too (except the mad King who was a bit overboard, and the monk whose voice I couldn’t stand). Poor Jang Keun-suk though, he had to have a sad face all the time. Kudos also for the costume designer(s). The costumes were beautiful!!
January 3rd, 2009 at 6:25 am
Much to the contrary, the King and the monk are among the best actors in this K-Drama. Anybody can act as the cool Hong Gil Dong and the Prince, Chang Hwi. But if one can act crazy and brings out the hatred from the audience, tat is the best kind of acting.
The storyline is great even with the unexpected ending. It challenges the viewers mind unlike other K-drama whereby they always have a sweet and lovely ending. Kudos!
January 19th, 2009 at 11:54 pm
JGS is my boyfriend forever. I saw his face while I was browsing through the channels – when I saw his drama moment in KBSWorld, the Ep2 (as in the close up part when he was reminiscing abt his mother), I really was hooked up on the series and never stopped to watch it. EXCEPT when it ended. Though I wanted it to never end, it did. 🙁
ANYWAY, JGS and KJH and SYR are so cute. All of them. But I’m no bisexual or anything, I just like them together in one screen. I hope I see more of them!! Woohoo to them! 😀
JGS I still love you. I’ll meet with you in our future, ok? Woohoo! :))
March 7th, 2009 at 12:53 am
really luv kang jihwan, sung yuri and jang geunsuk.hope to see kang jihwan and yuri paired in other dramas.
March 13th, 2009 at 9:31 am
this is one of the best k movie i have watch so far.. RECOMMENDED! 🙂
March 16th, 2009 at 7:38 am
this series is great series ..love it..can’t say its happy or sad ending..it depend on the way you think…good chemistry between the lead actor & actress..I was just so sad & disappointed that it ended..I wish it never end…
March 29th, 2009 at 2:12 pm
this drama is really something
it do leave a sad, nice.. (i just can’t put it into words) fellings in my heart
and how its end… its hard to bear it…
but that’s life, we can never expect full of roses everytime
it conveys that love is not something that can easily come and go, and sometimes we do have hardship in order to rotect someone we love… it’s too painful… but… what more can i say? you should feel it by yourself by now
do watch this
April 4th, 2009 at 9:05 pm
thats a good story but sad ending…… i wanna thank all the casts…. once again thank you!!!
April 23rd, 2009 at 5:30 am
This was the first korean drama i’ve seen!
The best!
I liked gom-i!
He was adorable!
The end really disappointed me. Poor gom-i! I want more!!
May 5th, 2009 at 6:17 pm
ya it’s the funny drama.
Sung Yuri is realy funny.
I like it!
May 5th, 2009 at 6:19 pm
Ji Hwan’s realy good too.
It’s too funny.
May 6th, 2009 at 6:27 pm
it’s so so amazing.
I have fun all day.
May 8th, 2009 at 3:11 pm
Lee Nok, Chayo!!!
May 8th, 2009 at 6:01 pm
really really like this drama!
really really love Yuri!
May 9th, 2009 at 5:53 pm
Yuri is really good in her role.
Compared to her role in Snow Queen, I cannot say witch one is better.
I think both are the best.
May 25th, 2009 at 6:22 pm
I think the OST “If” touches my heart.
I feel it’s lovable.
July 13th, 2009 at 6:05 pm
I don’t agree with u guys saying the ending was disappointing….it might be disappointing but thats how the series supposed to end…the decision that hongildong took at the end of the episode is what made him a hero…he stuck to his motive till the end…AND chang hwui as a king did his role…to destroy hong gil dong’s world which cannot co-exist with his. I GIVE 10/10 TO THE ENDING PART.
August 12th, 2009 at 12:11 pm

September 10th, 2009 at 2:50 pm
i love iljimae!!! is this anywhere good too?
i seemed to think that korea has a lot of dramas off robin hood. iljimae. the return of iljimae. hong gil dong. and what else?
October 16th, 2009 at 12:14 am
Nice and enjoyable drama. Kang Ji Hwan always gives his best in every drama that he acted in. A great chemisrty between Kang Ji Hwan and Song Yu Ri, they are quite matching after all.
October 26th, 2009 at 7:32 am
korean drama mostly thier ending has a question, like the ending of emperor of the sea,
terms of endearment
summer scent {endless love 3}
stained glass
this drama all thier ending has a question?
try to watch
December 8th, 2009 at 12:12 pm
love this drama and hate the ending….why they must attacked by the king and why they must died….i wish Hong Gil Dong and friends can move to another place and start build their own kingdom.
December 26th, 2009 at 8:51 am
keseluruhan cerita memang bagus,saya suka lihat sung yuri melakonkan pelbagai watak dengan berkesan sekali.. akhirnya m…ereka dapat bersama hingga akhir hayat..
December 26th, 2009 at 8:52 am
the overall story is good, I like to see sung yuri portray various roles effectively once .. ultimately be m. .. ereka together until the end of life ..
December 26th, 2009 at 11:26 pm
this drama is good!! Jang Geun Suk is so handsome in this
December 26th, 2009 at 11:43 pm
I love the young prince most. He portrayed his role very well and also so good looking guy. love his eyes!!
December 31st, 2009 at 1:33 pm
I agrees with Victoria and Mrs.Han Kyung . Jang Geun Seok is so handsome … I cried before watching this show lots of time …
January 7th, 2010 at 9:49 am
Hong Gil Dong was awesome. Unluckily I never got to see it with eng subs from ep 8 – ep 24. Kang Ji Hwan was really good in this even though it is my first drama with him in it. He made Hong Gil Dong my favorite character. Sung Yuri was so different in this from her previous roles and I just loved it. Lee Neok was an enjoyable character to watch. Jang Geun Seok’s Chang Hui could’ve been better IMO, but he was okay. The high minister guy was funny for his “core of all power” phrase and the King Kang Hui was really good too. Ending was not satisfying in general, but it made sense for the story. I just wished they emphasized HGD and HLN’s relationship more, as in not just ending up together, but what happens afterwards. Still good though. For people asking about whether to watch it, just watch it and you’ll come to a decision.
January 14th, 2010 at 12:41 pm
Hi Ladies,
What’s the ending? I just finished eps. 20 and going to 21 but from what i have read previously the ending is not that good, they both died…oh so sad, it;s quiet disapointing if they’re both dead.
the 1st episode said a few years earlier, that should be the ending, they got together and do what they love the most, help poor people
Overall, this drama is awesome especially Kang Ji Hwan and Sung Yu Ri, best couple on screen and they make the drama very entertaining.
Too bad with the ending, anyone can tell me what’s the ending really is
February 5th, 2010 at 7:47 pm
I fell in love with JGS in this drama…soo freakingly handsome and excellent potrayal of his role…
I first watched him in YAB though…but his prince character in this drama got me hooked with him…
February 13th, 2010 at 10:40 pm
HONG GIL DONG IS BEST KOREAN DRAMA
I AM IRANIAN
February 16th, 2010 at 11:22 pm

February 17th, 2010 at 7:22 pm
I Love the character Prince Chang Hui…..JGS is a very good actor!!!
Love his eyes and his rare smile in this drama…..
February 20th, 2010 at 9:54 am
It’s so FRUSTRATING that everytime I wanted to watch this drama,more than 90% of the episodes are B R O K E N..yaiiks!
April 16th, 2010 at 10:07 pm
I SUPER LOVE THIS DRAMA! IT HAS A VERY SATISFYING ENDING even though it ended with the two leads death, i so love it, the chemistry between the actors, the story line, PERFECT!!i just love how hong sisters(writers) satisfy there fans with there stories… SARANGHE KANG JI HWAN!!
April 22nd, 2010 at 1:49 pm
i really love this movie but i wasn’t able to watch it until its end due to unfixed video, I’m begging you to fix it to be able for me to watch it!, thank you and more power!
April 23rd, 2010 at 1:05 am
Jang Geun Suk was my favorite..Intense eyes..If I were Yi Nok, I would have chosen him and be queen, that way, We can both help rebuild the nation.we’d still be friends with Hong Gil Dong ofcourse and work together with him..Hong Gil Dong’s character was also fascinating.I really didnt like the ending but its strange how Ive come to be attached with the characters.I would miss the characters so I would watch a few episodes again..I really like the love story between the three..Jang Geun Suk though was who I remember most..He is etched in my memory..remarkable performance..
May 7th, 2010 at 11:29 pm
I think the insane emporer acted very well in this show.
June 8th, 2010 at 2:03 am
it made me laughed & cried from kang ji hwan sang yuri. JGS’s done well too.
June 10th, 2010 at 5:50 pm

July 7th, 2010 at 9:05 am
The start of my KANG JI HWAN addiction…..
well casted acting wise and very interesting sageuk fusion drama with a twist. Love the drama and the comedy. Another 5 star from the HONG SISTERS writing duo. more more more (“,)
July 7th, 2010 at 9:17 am
This is my 1ST Sageuk/Historical Drama. I’m not into this type of story but since I’m a huge fan of the Hong Sisters’ writing duo…I have to watch it plus bonus of seeing my KANG JI HWAN (“,) again after Capital Scandal is a MUST! I’m surprise that I really feel -“hook, line and sinker” -in love with Hong Gil Dong….I cried and laugh with this drama like crazy, the acting were ALL great! I got carried away…so much so that I’ve watch all-24 episode in 4 days! All the characters are memorable, they’ve owned it. Now I got the CD collection so that I can re-watch the episode I like. It is now on my top 10 BEST KDRAMA EVER. This drama reinvigorate my K-drama addiction after so long.
July 9th, 2010 at 6:29 am
I really love KJH. This is the 1st drama about Joseon Dynasty that i have finished beside Dae Jang Kum. I really hope that KJH and SYR are a real couple in real life.
August 3rd, 2010 at 11:17 pm
Great drama. Love KJH, SYR and JGS, these three portrayed their characters so well. The prince is so charming, Hong Gil Dong is so manly and funny. I feel they love each other in a way but born differently. The ending is appropriate to the storyline. Re-watched it many times.
All in all, highly recommended, a must see from Hong Sisters!
Love you KJH.
August 15th, 2010 at 8:20 pm

August 31st, 2010 at 9:22 am
I love this drama! I love the connection between Sung Yu-ri and Kang Ji-hwan. I laugh when KJW act childish. Kang Ji-hwan and Sung Yu-ri are fit for each role. I love the perforamance! Though I haven’t finish watching it yet(I’m now in episode 19), I can say the drama is indeed extravagant!
September 4th, 2010 at 1:17 pm
Must watch drama – Gumiho – Tale of a Fox child. – The picture look scary but actually the drama is not scary but exciting. The actors and actresses including the kids all acted very very well.
Jung Kyu & Yeon Yi met the 1st time & catching fire flies at the river side – so sweet
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15t2MbWEU8U
My Girlfriend is a Gumiho (a comedy) – also very nice.
September 15th, 2010 at 12:33 pm
Theres a scene in the drama that I like. It in episode 19. It’s when Sung Yu-ri caresses the chest of Kang Ji-hwan. Yu-ri thought that Ji-hwan was asleep but he’s not actually sleeping. I really laugh at this scene. It looks funny yet embarassing.
October 11th, 2010 at 8:50 pm
Hong Gil Dong is the best korean tv series i’ve watched yet…a combination of comedy, romance, action, and drama that got me sooo hooked ! even if i had to watch it in the internet and load the whole day, i don’t mind coz this series never failed to make me laugh, cry, get worried, excited, and anticipate ! whenever sung yu ri cries, i cry. aww ;’c
October 29th, 2010 at 5:36 pm
The first drama of Kang Ji Hwan i watched is hong Gil Dong.. This is the drama introducing to me to like Kang so much.. He like very well whether action,drama,comedy or horror.
January 18th, 2011 at 9:00 am

July 10th, 2011 at 10:46 pm
yeah, that lonely prince chang hwi make me fall in love to JKS!!, your very sweet smile in ep 12 confused me bcz you can hide your playful face to a very different innocent prince! n u hooked me to watch until the prince die..sad..huhu
July 10th, 2011 at 11:01 pm
But OMG, JKS was totally not fit with that wig in HGD! so weird n his pretty young face looked ugly humm, but in Marry me Mary, wah!so damn pretty n suit n sweet, n rock u man!
August 10th, 2011 at 5:41 am
i’m a huge fan of Kang ji hwan since save the last dance followed by his numerous projects but i hv yet to see this one! it looks interesting & he never ceased to amaze us anyway! he’s multi-talented & can do drama & comedy very well! luv you kang ji hwan!
August 25th, 2011 at 11:56 pm
i’m no on epi 13 & liking this drama to the max! i nvr thought Hong gil dong drama was this good…sung yu ri made me cry with her in epi 12 part 4 when she found out gil dong was still alive! this drama is a must-see if anyone hasn’t seen it yet! my only regret is i didn’t watch it while it was airing! i can hardly wait to see the rest! luv kang ji hwan & jang geum sook here as well as the acting of sung yu ri! she was good in her role & so are kang & jang!

Chang Hwi (JGS) looks very handsome in this drama. It was when I first saw him in this drama that I was attacted to him…. Sad then, I didn’t know he was the same person in Beethoven Virus so I missed watching until I saw him again in You’re beautiful. When I came to this site, I was wonderting why You’re beautiful is at the toplist. When I bought the VCD and watched, then I know why it is because of JGS. His super acting skill!!! So amazing, he looks soooo dashing and stunning.
September 15th, 2011 at 11:58 pm
i watch this drama cos i like jang geun suk so much… but when i adapted to it , i actually fall in love with kang ji hwan more! this is a much watch drama … sung yu ri is my favourite too.. i shed tears in a few episode . all i could say this is one of my favourite drama ever

Just finish watching this drama. I like all the main actors
Kang Ji Hwan as Hong Gil Dong
Sung Yu Ri as Heo Lee Nok
Jang Geun Suk as Lee Chang Hwui
But my heart broke for Jang Geun Suk the most. And the theme song “IF” makes me cry as soon as I hear the 1st word..

It was a real good drama but very unexpected ending. Why should one broke the heart of Jang Geun Suk, because of his looks? In a drama one must not choose the looks if he is going to be a person who wants power to become a King. For that position it is greed and power. Hong Gil Dong and his men helped Chang Hwui in many ways even risking his own life so why did Chang Hui destroyed Hong Gil Dong’s People and their territory? No security? Afraid someone steal his throne? All of them had their sufferings. Hong Gil Dong, Yi Nok also had their bad past and sufferings not only Chang Hwui. He changed because Yi Nok prefers Hong Gil Dong? So I do not liek the ending as it is not as logic as the whole story was good till the last episode spoiled the whole drama..Pity!!Honto ni Kawaiso ne! But all the actors and actresses were fantastic in this drama …Especially all those main characters

i watched this drama because the first episode was well done. i got hooked, although the story is loose, but the actors were good, the portrayal of the monk was weird, and a mixture of action, romance, comedy, etc. the depiction of two narrow worlds, one with a king and peasants, the other when everyone is equal, was imperfect, as no world is perfect. i feel sad for a young king, could not win his love and found he was a victim of manipulating people, but his resolve to be king, rightful as it was, made him stronger and proved that he can be king in the end, so too bad for HGD and HYN and the resurgent gang. the leading actor and actress were good in their roles, and JKS had a restrained acting being a king. he was better in ‘hwang jin yi’, comparing his roles in a period drama. i’ve watched many of his work, and the guy can really act. it’s a good watch!
