It was reported on August 26th that Yoo Hae Jin and Ryu Joon Yeol will be the main leads for the upcoming movie "The Owl." The new movie will be helmed by the former assistant director of "The King and the Clown", Ahn Tae Jin.
"The Owl" will narrate the story of the death of Prince So Hyeon, who returned from the Qing Dynasty in the Joseon Period. Yoo Hae Jin will act as King Injo and Ryu Joon Yeol will play the role of a visually impaired person trying to make ends meet.
