It will be Kim's second time working with Kim Eun-sook following the hit drama "Guardian: The Lonely and Great God," also known as "Goblin," which aired in 2016-17.
The studio said "The King" follows in the footsteps of Kim's previous surreal love stories, including "Secret Garden" and "Guardian."
The new drama is scheduled to be broadcast in the first half of next year. (Yonhap)
