==Synopsis==
'''Goong (궁)''' is based on the same titled [[Wikipedia:Manhwa|manhwa]] by Park So Hee.

Goong is story about the love in face of tradition, politics, and intrigue. Korea is a constitutional monarchy and the Royal Family lives in a grand Palace, the Goong. Story opens with a startling diagnosis that the King is terminally ill. Faced with the decreasing popularity among the public for the Royalty, a grand wedding for the Crown Prince, Lee Shin, is decided to be the best publicity move to improve the image of Royalty and at the same time prepare Shin for immediate succession. The intended bride? The headstrong, awkward, and sweet spirited Shin Chae-gyung that just happens to go to the same exclusive art school. Chae-gyung was betrothed to become the next Crown Princess by her grandfather and Shin's grandfather. As in life, humor maskes the pain in this beautifully shot drama.

Preparations for the sequel '''Goong (궁)''' [[Goong_2|Season 2]] is underway, as confirmed by Eight Peaks. Eight Peaks has confirmed that they will try to engage the same cast for the sequel.

[[Goong_S|Goong S]] is a drama produced by a separate production company, [http://www.group8tv.com Group Eight], and is not an official sequel of '''Goong (궁)'''. Both cast and storyline for [[Goong_S|Goong S]] are totally different from '''Goong (궁)'''.
