, , , , , , 0

If you have a taste for Korean dramas to stream on Netflix, I actually have a few in mind. Of course, Iris fans can always look forward to Mr. Sunshine which has Lee Byung-Hun front and center on much of the PR for this epic 24-episode series from Descendants Of The Sun and Goblin duo Kim Eun-sook and Lee Eung-bok who share writing and directing duties, respectively.

Based in Shinmiyangyo, or the US expedition to Korea in the late 19th century, Mr. Sunshine tells the story of a Korean boy born into a family of a house servant running away to board an American warship, later to return to his homeland as a US marine officer. He ironically falls in love with an aristocrat’s daughter and discovers the dark scheme to colonize the country that he once ran away from.

The series hails from Hwa&Dam Pictures and Studio Dragon with Lee starring as US marine officer Eugene Choi. The Handmaiden actress Kim Tae-ri plays the aristocrat’s daughter, Go Ae-sin, with Yoo Yeon-seok, Kim Min-jung, and Byun Yo-han headlining as series principals.

Mr. Sunshine starts streaming in the U.S. on July 7 with episodes streaming on the same day of its Korean broadcast on tvN, followed by successive premieres in Japan on July 8 and the rest of the world on July 19.
