It has gained a lot of viewers attention from the write of its drama which successfully went viral through ‘Goblin’ to the line-up of amazing actors that will appear in this drama. Now the expectation is high on how Kim Tae Ri, the recently rising star will play along with the top actor Lee Byung Hun.
‘Mr.Sunshine’ is reportedly reaching the total of 40 billion won for its production cost. The production cost of this drama apparently is even bigger than most movies. The movie ‘Along With God’ spent a total of 40 Billion won production cost and surpassed a total 14 millions of viewers last year, compared to this, this drama’s production cost is indeed enormous. This drama has 24 episodes in total and each episode cost around 1.6 billion won for its production. Perhaps this because ‘Mr.Sunshine’ is set on the Korean Period which is not recorded in the history. This drama took a set in 1900’s and even though it is not recorded in the history, the story of a Korean Army history deserves to be the talk of the town.
Because of the set of this drama, the filming set is also being redesigned and the costum has to perfectly matched with the historical research. “This drama is the first movie-scale Korean Drama and its filming set cost us a lot of money” said one of the official production team of this drama.

The filming set is also perfectly designed so that the actor will be able to get into their character even deeper” and then they added, “it looks like this drama will be the next ‘Goblin’ this year”.
Now the only thing that matter from this perfectly made drama is that the age differences. The age differences between the two main leads, Lee Byung Hun and Kim Tae Ri is 20 years old in total. Even though Lee Byung Hun is known for his outstanding acting ability, everyone is still questioning whether he could actually overcome the 20 years age difference.
