![]() He’s on a personal mission which is why he stays in the human world and also has a rivalry with Son Oh Gong. Then there’s Cha Seung Won as Woo Ma Wang, the Bull Demon King. I greatly enjoyed Oh Yeon Seo in this role as she has that fun spark and lively spirit that she brings to her characters. Though after years of waiting, she is not so thrilled when she finally meets him again. But after encountering Son Oh Gong as a child, she has always hoped he would come back and protect her. This has made her into a feisty and independent woman. She’s had to deal with having the ability to see spirits her whole life. So thrilled to see this wonderful performance by Lee Seung Gi! What can I say, his appeal overrides all of that, hehe. It was impossible not to like him and root for him despite his not so good qualities and the fact that he wanted to eat our leading lady for his own gain. He’s mischievous and self serving.Īnd it takes someone like Lee Seung Gi to play a character like this in a way that makes him fun and charming. He plays our trouble making monkey king Son Oh Gong. Lee Seung Gi is back and better than ever! I’ve waited such a long time for him to return to my screen, and he did not disappoint in Hwayugi. But a curse gets in the way, and the two end up working together to battle evil spirits as they face death and fall in love. He seeks to restore his status by devouring a special woman (Oh Yeon Seo) who can see spirits. ![]() ![]() ![]() The drama moves the story to the modern day where the trouble making Monkey King (Lee Seung Gi) is exiled to the human world because of his corruption. Hwayugi (also known as A Korean Odyssey) is a fantasy romantic comedy loosely based on the Chinese novel Journey to the West. ![]()
