Subbed trailer for upcoming kdrama "Love Song for Illusion" (Patreon)

Reading Show's synopsis, it kinda feels like a mash-up of The Crowned Crown and My Journey To You? 😅 Honestly, I'm not opposed to the premise, and I'm sorta drawn to the dramatic tension in the trailer, but I didn't much care for the little of Park Ji Hoon that I saw, in At a Distance, Spring is Green. 🙊 I know lots of folks like him tho, so I'm trying to keep an open mind. 😁

Show's synopsis on MDL reads:

"It tells both the heart-fluttering love story and fierce obsession of a King with two opposite personalities and an assassin girl who wants to kill him but ends up falling in love with him.  

Crown Prince Sajo Hyun is an intellectual character who uses his innate artistic sense to work as a fashion designer at a downtown boutique while hiding his identity of crown prince. He has a wound deep down in his heart from his childhood due to his oppressive father Sajo Seung. Sajo Hyun’s other personality Ak Hee is a charming character who can easily seduce others, but he is cursed to feel extreme pain when he makes physical touch with others.  

Yeon Wol lives a life full of twists and turns, going from an assassin to concubine. Yeon Wol is the royal descendant of the fallen Yeon Dynasty and the only daughter of Yeon Poong Hak. Yeon Wol hides her identity and becomes assassin Gye Ra to avenge her family. While trying to assassinate the king, she falls into a trap set by an unknown person and wakes up the next day with no memory of her past."

Show is adapted from the webtoon "Love Song for Illusion" (환상연가) by Vanziun (반지운).

Park Ji Hoon and Hong Ye Ji star.

Show will be 16 eps, and will air on Mon & Tue, from 2 Jan to 20 Feb, on KBS2. No word yet on which streaming platform will carry this one.
