The upcoming new MBN K-drama Missing Crown Prince got new stills and a new trailer earlier today.

And, as usual with any photos from a Korean historical drama, as you will see from the latest Missing Crown Prince stills, the attention to historical accuracy from the sets to the costumes is, again, impeccable.

Meanwhile, the new Missing Crown Prince trailer promises a drama full of action, high-drama and intrigue, as we follow the story of Crown Prince Lee Geon (played by Suho), who is kidnapped by Choi Myung Yoon (Hong Ye Ji), a woman determined to marry him.

An event that causes upheaval to the kingdom, and places people’s lives in danger.

While the pair run for their lives, however, Lee Geon suddenly finds himself developing feelings for his kidnapper.

Interestingly too, while the new Missing Crown Prince trailer makes the upcoming K-drama look like its full of angst, it is actually a romantic comedy.

The Missing Crown Prince cast and staff

The new MBN drama’s main cast features Suho, Hong Ye Ji, Myung Se Bin, Kim Joo Hun, and Kim Min Kyu.

The director of Missing Crown Prince is Kim Jin Man (Rebel: Thief Who Stole the People), with Kim Ji Soo (Bossam: Steal the Fate) and Park Chul (also co-writer of Bossam: Steal the Fate) in charge of scripts.

Missing Crown Prince was postponed from its original premiere on March 9th to its now-new premiere of April 13th due to possible “problems with the scripts”.

The necessary re-writing, re-filming and editing has apparently now taken place as it premieres in three weeks.

The 20-episode drama will air on MBN in South Korea on Saturdays and Sundays at 21:40 (KST), with Viki confirmed to be streaming it internationally.

Check out the just released Missing Crown Prince trailer and, while it does seem to show anguish and high drama, again keep in mind it is reportedly a a rom-com, so things are likely not as serious as they appear here.
