Why So Many Actors Have Played Prince Gwanghae

Viewers who watch historical dramas about royalty know that when a king has children with a queen, a consort and then some concubines, there may be trouble down the line. The king can name a crown prince as his successor, but if that son is only a concubine's child, some may say that he has no right.

That's what happened to Prince Gwanghae and the fact that he did become a king, even though he was a concubine's son, may be the reason that so many actors like to play him.

So far, his story has been portrayed by actors Ji Sung, Lee Byung Hun, Lee Sang Yoon, and most recently by Seo In Guk.
