This is a thread where we can post clips from the gazillion other Film's Dramas about what must be the most popular King of the whole Dynasty .
Amazing too he pops up in Horror/Ghost Stories as well as Romantic Comedy and Mystery .
So we should dig up quite a few clips .
[mod note == sorry, that period in the title was flipping my browser out for some reason, so I took it out b cuZ I thought others might have the same prob. -/bo\]

Yes, this guy appears an awful lot in media doesn't he.
There is Eight Days, about the assassination attempts on Emperor Jeong Jo's life during the 8 day period when he left the palace for a ceremony to honor his father. I saw the drama, but I never really got into it. For a drama series thats 10 episodes, it moves slow-I also feel that it got bogged down by some of the side stories regarding a few of the conspirators, particularly the romance between one of them and a gisaeng.
Its in a grimmer tone than Yi San, as the opening will probably be of indication. If you saw this series, you'll see that while Jeongjo still retains his concern for the people, is a little meaner here.
I was a bit shocked when the actor who played Jang-geum's father/IYSS officer was playing one of the noron villains....does that guy make you think villainy at all?

Here is a clip from Conspiracy In The Court www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIMpBPF0w6oNotice this is the same Jeongjo from Sunkyunkwan Scandal and it seems he has some more Jeonjo's under his belt ,so we may have our first serial Jeongjo actor

At the end of it, we should have a poll to decide who's the best in portraying Jeongjo. ;D Thanks for the links! ^^

Whatever the merits of Eight Days Mystery, that certainly is a stylish intro. Something different. I liked it.
Can somebody tell me what the bureaucrats (or scholars or whatever) are petitioning Jeong-jo about in the "Conspiracy" clip? And what his response is?

@dyc, I thought the actor (Jeongjo in Conspiracy) acted as a teacher (who discovered guy is gal...no thanks to that pulse. Really, can they tell? I've often wonder) in the royal academy in Sunkyunkwan Scandal? The role of Jeongjo went to a much older guy, I remembered him rolling cigarettes in one of the few eps I watched. TheBo, Chona! Chona!! ..and whatever else rolled on behind sok-so or whatever... haha, they sure were agitated. Perhaps DYC knows the answer? I'm sure they were the Noron faction.

The version i saw had crap subs ,but it seems Jeonjo had decided to clear the name of some poor man who had been executed for treason some 20 years past and Noron's got the hump .
You are right on Sunkyunkwan Over Flowers he does play a teacher in that ,anyway he still has a few Jeonjo's under his robe ,Ill track em down .

I figure I can't vote for the best Jeongjo if I don't see all the evidence.
