2013 MBC daily drama Heo Jun, The Original Story

[ajk]

Was flipping channels tonight and discovered our MBC outlet running a historical. Turns out it's their 2013 version of the Heo Jun story. Wow! Right now I don't know which episode it was or how long they've been running it, but I'll try to figure out how far they are into the series.

This series was a Monday-through-Friday evening drama that ran for 35 minutes per episode. I don't know anything about it quality-wise; anybody here see any of it? The episode that ran today was pretty good, at least enough to keep me watching.

Here are the usual three web pages for it:

When I first found it and couldn't figure out what it was, a character showed up and I recognized him right away as Munno from QSD...so I was feeling pretty pleased with myself. But as it went on there was a doctor character and he seemed to be the main character, and well geez I just couldn't place the face but I swore he looked familiar from something...you may now all point and laugh.

Anyway this was a nice find, on one of our local broadcast outlets.

Wow, suddenly our MBC outlet has gone in big for historicals! Couldn't sleep last night so I turned on the TV and found them running a historical that I figured out was Horse Doctor / The King's Doctor. And this afternoon, they're running God of War.

Not sure what's going on but how can you not like it.

Could not get into Heo Jung, just seemed low budget, and seen it all before. At least the old stuff is subtitled .
