Yang Sang-guk jokes about Sukjong on TV Chosun show
The comedian discussed King Sukjong's concubines with Choi Tae-sung, Shin Gi-ru, Ji Ye-eun and Im Ho on 'What Did the King Eat?'
Comedian Yang Sang-guk appeared on TV Chosun's variety show 'What Did the King Eat?' on July 15 and discussed King Sukjong's dining table with Korean history instructor Choi Tae-sung, broadcaster Shin Gi-ru, Ji Ye-eun and actor Im Ho.
Im Ho had previously played Sukjong in the drama 'Jang Hee-bin.' When Ji Ye-eun asked whether he ate many nourishing foods while filming 'Jang Hee-bin,' Im Ho said he dealt more with factional fights than food.
Im Ho said, 'The line I said the most was, 'You look familiar.' Sukjong had a lot of concubines.' Yang then asked whether Sukjong was really a Casanova, saying some kings may have restrained themselves in selecting concubines while others used all of their ability, and that Sukjong seemed to have used 100 of it.
When Choi Tae-sung responded that it was work for the country, Yang said, 'I would like to do it for the country, too,' drawing laughter. Im Ho said, 'It feels embarrassing to sit in the middle and listen to this conversation.'
