Three previews for Three Musketeers

Ooh, these teasers for Three Musketeers sure are gorgeous.

Okay, they don’t tell us anything and are far more style than substance, but with a title like that and a background story that’s as (in)famous as that of Crown Prince Sohyeon, who died a mysterious death that has spurred speculation throughout the centuries, I suppose we already get the gist. Action, fighting, royal intrigue, and probably loads of bromance! I mean we’re pretty much already sold, right?

Add to that Lee Jin-wook starring as the “cool-headed leader of the three musketeers,” reteaming with the Nine director and writer (who also wrote and directed Queen In-hyun’s Man), with Yang Dong-geun (Hero) and Jung Yong-hwa (Mi-rae’s Choice)—just more reasons to tune in. (Sundays on tvN, beginning August 17!)

In the first rather spiffy-looking teaser, Lee Jin-wook says, “Come with me and protect this nation of Joseon.” I love when he’s being all stern and glowery.

 
In this teaser, we have Jung Yong-hwa as the D’Artagnan of the group—the “hot-headed newbie fighter”—whose name I’m pretty sure is meant to sound similar to the original character as Dal-hyang. His voiceover says, “Soon, it will Dal-hyang’s era.” His preview is more light-hearted and swashbuckling, and just watch those bangs blowin’ in the breeze:

 
And okay, I suppose this is technically a teaser, although it shows us nothing. I mean, really! It is pretty much the opposite of a teaser.

I see. So girls will flock to the pretty boy. Let him take care of the look department. Dear PD, know your viewers and don't disappoint them. Give them what they want by, say, showing the actor frequently in various stages of undress on screen and lots of romantic titilations.

I trust that Lee Jin Wook will take care of the substance of the drama. He looks mighty good in the photos. He's the one I will be watching.

Whad'ya mean? My favorite actors don't need to be in any stages of undress to make me watch. They're talented AND pretty enough to pull off traditional wear with all those long layers of fabric. Sungkyunkwan Scandal anyone?!?

Man, the cuts are REALLY bad for Yong-hwa's teaser.

At least from an action sense.

I can't tell if his swordwork is good or not, because I can't even see the movement from the blade because it's outside the cut....

I really hope they're good, but that teaser doesn't inspire confidence, if they don't want to show his swordwork....

I love Lee Jin-wook and Yonghwa was actually pretty good in his last role so fingers crossed that the ensemble in this show doesn't disappoint, after all they have to be able to draw us in for 3 seasons. From the looks of it, we have nothing to be worried about :)

Seo Hyun Jin has been cast as the female lead. She plays the crown princess. I really want a teaser featuring her already :').

Check asianwiki for the rest of the cast, the other female lead is Yoo In Young, who played Yoo-ra in Man from the Stars.

This feels like a short but lighter version of "Cruel Palace". Hoping it won't go into the makjang territory like the real history but more like a Joseon version of the original "Three Musketeers". I wouldn't mind a little "War of the Arrows" in the mix.

Sageuk is not for everyone. I enjoy it because I find Korean history fascinating. Doesn't mean I'm expecting every drama to be historically accurate.
It wouldn't be a sageuk without men in funny hats plotting against the king etc.

My question is, where is Yang Dong Geun's teaser? Is this 'The Two Musketeers'? I mean, it looks like these two were released very close together, so unless they are doing one at a time, shouldn't the third one be here?

Or is he not enough of a "pretty oppa" for them to include him in the first batch of releases? Because if the pretty is all they have to offer, I don't think this is a series I want to follow.

As for the other two, I like Lee's teaser, but Yong Hwa's has pretty uninspiring music and visuals. I think they're too much in a hurry with the promotional stuff. They should have taken more time to up the quality a bit.

It makes even more sense for them to wait a bit then. So that there will not be a disjointed promotional campaign. Although he did at least do photoshoots and such for it. There was a making of video out a while back.

Well D'Artagnan (Dalhyang) isn't part of the "three musketeers". He's the fourth one.

Last I heard, there are actually only three here, Dalhyang included. The other is Yang Dong Geun's character and one cast through open auditions. The Crown Prince is their leader. Unless they changed it later and added a fourth one to fit the original concept.

But the main leads and popular actors are three and one of them is missing, hence my sarcastic remark. It would have made more sense for them to have gone for one teaser at a time or then release them for all the main big names.

They seemed to rush these two out.

the music is depend on the character's personality.
that's why in lee jin wook teaser, the music seems serious because he portrays the charismatic king, who wants to protect the nation

and for yonghwa teaser, i like the music. because his character has free spirit, he's an adventurer btw.

What are the pd-writers thinking? They always have a problem picking up a good actor as their lead in their project... Picking up yong hwa and lee jin wook in a saeguk drama? Both are so blind and can't emote in a more serious and dramatic scene... Oh well... Let see how it will turn out

I think the eye-candy factor comes first, before all other considerations. Why use real actors when you can just plop a few idols in for the ratings?

Have you watched Nine Times Travel w/ Lee Jin Wook in it? If not, I recommend it. It might change your opinion of him being "blind". I haven't really watched Yong Hwa in anything yet (except You're Beautiful, but that was a rom com and not so much "serious") so I can't give an honest opinon of him.

I respectfully disagree. Nobody could've played Kim Boong-do the way Ji Hyun-woo did in Queen In-hyun's Man, and Lee Jin-wook was wonderful in Nine. Those were two strong dramas with really fascinating, atypical male leads that were carried out through subtle but impactful performances. I have absolutely no qualms about this drama based on that.

Do you know what it takes to carry a show like Nine, missjb?Story, directing yada yada yes, but not without Lee awesome Jin Wook.

And if Yonghwa can stand out in a show like Mirae's choice albeit being the most inexperienced among the cast, then I think he deserves a chance like this. Don't you?

You know, just to get this out of my system: There is emerging a snideness on this site about idols and singers that I, and Dramabeans at large, do not endorse. I don't like it and I don't want to encourage it.

It's fine to be critical. It's fine to dislike idols. Let's please not be snide to others about it, though.

I completely agree. I see a few people whose opinions are always negative. What surprises me is that the same people manage to at least skim thru pretty much all Kdramas and leave negative remarks in all the recaps. So much negativity and boredom cannot be good for their physical and mental health. I want to urge them to make good use of that little thing called remote and change their channel to J-drama, ESPN, Discovery, cooking or whatever is their favorite programming. Even better, switch off their tv or computer and go outside, take a hike or fly a kite. Those would work wonders on their poor nerves all stressed out by watching hours and hours of old funny Korean hats, weird Korean culture, idols who simply cannot act, recycled cliches and tired tropes.

I thought it was just I who noticed it lately. It's been pretty bad.
For some shows, on *every* *single* *episode*, there are such negative comments, and they are stupid, too!

Comments like: She should get over it and stop being a crybaby (a girl crying few days after the guy left without explaining anything, I-can't-see-how-the-writer-would-solve-it (midway through the show), she is so stupid (not being able to make a billion dollar company), she is so ugly, she has a scar, she doesn't know how to act, I wish X was the actress instead, X was so awesome- too bad this one doesn't know how to act, she is so stiff and cold, OR she is emotional and crying, how could she/he not realize so-and-so in advance and act differently, there's no way he'd be able to jump/fly like that in real life (!!!) ... What did I miss?

Sometimes they dismiss certain behaviours that either make sense to me, or might sound strange, but I've seen such things in real life, sometimes the story makes sense by following the logic of the characters, etc.

...And you know what's the worst?
They keep watching and leaving those comments!
The whole drama!
You can't just enjoy the episode, take it for what it is, and have a reasonable discussion regarding the characters and the plot.
Lately, few people started writing back to stop so much of the negativity on boards that are supposed to discuss the episodes. They get attacked for being negative about the negative comments. >_<

In my opinion, it looks like The Three Musketeers' has within it all the dynamic components of great writer, director, cast, costumes, set location and budget to produce a really enjoyable and memorable drama. Already there's a little something to satisfy everyone's taste in that first episode. Action, adventure, intrigue, romance, comedy even some history mixed in. Even Yong Hwa's naivete is really winning!
For those who are so critical of the Yonghwa's acting abilities, let me say just this, "while you are being negative and cynical of his performance, he is laughing all the way to the bank!" I personally, give him 3 A's! 'Audacious" to broaden his horizon beyond the comfort of his music (which he's already successful at), 'Amazing" to whole heartedly commit himself to everything he decides to do and he's "Amusing", winning and delightful to watch be it an interview, mv, concert or drama. He might be not be super tall, have double eyes, or perfect teeth but he does possess that charismatic "IT" factor that you wish you had!
So, I say to all his critics aka his anti-fans, "when one cannot do any better, one should not speak!!"
I know there are "fan clubs" of a idols and celebrities, but what's with this "Asian anti-fan" jealousy crap? What planet are you all from? "Sap Peel Gwee Jung!!"
