The Return of Iljimae is the result of the popular and original series ‘Iljimae’ which was played by Lee Joon-Ki. In this new version, Iljimae (Jung Il-Woo), returns to the small screen to play the hero during the Chosun dynasty. Iljimae, by no means, had an easy life; forced to abandonment at birth Iljimae was eventually shipped to China to be adopted by a kind family. However, he later discovers the truth after believing he was Chinese and the biological son of his ‘parents.’ This drama will take you to a journey back to Korea where he tries to find his biological mother…and save lives while doing so. Other twists in the plot include Wol-Hee (Yoon Jin-Suh) who happens to look identical to Iljimae’s first love, and the fact that his mother is now a gisaeng (lady entertainer) who happens to have caught the eye of an official…
This beautiful and artistic drama will take you to a different era where love, hope, and heroic deeds exist, because of Iljimae.

I wonder whether this sequel will do good as the previous one. It will largely depend upon if Jung il-woo will shed off the comical image in High Kick and play well the role of Korean Robin Hood.
