Tonight Hunan TV will introduce the South Korean dramatic series "Dae
Jang Geum", the very first time this royal period drama will be broadcast
in mainland China.
This hit show received an amazing viewer ratings share of 54% in South
Korea, the highest in Korean television history. It continued its success
with an average rating of 50% when aired in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Based on a true story, "Dae Jang Geum" tells the
tale of Jang-Geum, the first female to become a personal physician
for a king in ancient South
Korea. Jang-Geum faces tremendous odds while working her way to the top of
the royal court during 16th century Korea. Using her extraordinary
determination and wisdom, she manages to achieve the impossible in a time
when woman had little influence in Korean society.
A spokesman of Hunan TV said that most of the lead actors, including
famous actress Lee Young Ae, will be invited to Changsha, capital city of
South China's Hunan province.
This TV epic will be broadcast on Hunan TV throughout the month of
September.
