Shin Min-ah, Joo Ji-hoon, Lee Jong-suk, Lee Se-young drama 'The Remarried Empress' drops Nov. 4 with first four episodes

2.9 billion views of source material, six years in the making

The Remarried Empress drops November 4 with its first four episodes all at once. Six years passed between the official greenlight and this premiere. The webtoon and web novel it's based on have accumulated 2.9 billion views globally.

The series screened at the Busan International Film Festival ahead of its wide release.

A cast built to turn heads

Shin Min-ah, Joo Ji-hoon, Lee Jong-suk, and Lee Se-young lead the show. Lee Bong-ryeon, Choi Dae-hoon, Jung Young-joo, and Park Ho-san round out the ensemble. This lineup has dominated conversation since the project was announced. (Stacking this much name recognition in one production raises expectations that are genuinely hard to meet.)

What comes next from the same author

Author Alphatart's next romance fantasy, Harem of Men (하렘의 남자들), is scheduled to arrive on Netflix next year.
