tvN’s upcoming drama “Royal Inspector Joy” has shared a new glimpse of 2PM’s Taecyeon in his starring role!
“Royal Secret Inspector Joy” is a new historical comedy drama starring Taecyeon as Ra Yi Eon, a young gourmand who is appointed a royal secret inspector (a government official who travels undercover to local provinces to inspect them and uncover corruption) against his will. Kim Hye Yoon will star as Kim Jo Yi, a divorced woman searching for happiness who winds up joining forces with him to investigate and battle corrupt forces.
Although Ra Yi Eon possesses a brilliant mind that lands him a coveted government official position, he is completely uninterested in his job and would much prefer to spend his days eating and lazing around at home. Although the prestigious title of royal secret inspector is something that others would kill for, Ra Yi Eon falls into despair when his peaceful life is turned upside down by his unexpected appointment.
The newly released stills depict Ra Yi Eon’s peaceful life turning into a turbulent one. In one photo, he smiles happily as he holds a stackable lunch box. He’s all about taking his lunch break and leaving work on time. In another photo, he draws up his sleeves with a determined look in order to prepare dinner.
The next photos show Ra Yi Eon’s life turning upside down when he becomes appointed a royal secret inspector. He stares at a letter from the King with a look of horror on his face. He no longer wears fancy clothing and runs around in a hurry. It will be intriguing to see how his life will change with his new job.
Taecyeon shared he selected “Royal Secret Inspector Joy” as his new project because it’s fun. He explained, “I read the script with a happy smile. My heart also fluttered at Ra Yi Eon and Kim Jo Yi’s refreshing chemistry.”
He continued, “It was fun to see Ra Yi Eon go his own way. The true charm of Ra Yi Eon is that he doesn’t do something until he wants to, but when his heart moves, he does it better than anyone else. The more we film, the more attractive I find historical dramas. I can’t wait to show you Ra Yi Eon.”
“Royal Secret Inspector Joy” premieres on November 8 at 10:30 p.m. KST.
