Synopsis
Fashionista, multi-talented, comedy, ten-million-dollar-actor Lee Dong-hwi, who rose to fame as the comedian 'Algyein' is remembered as 'Algyein'.

No longer wanting to perform 'funny acting', he has suspended all activities and is waiting for an opportunity to transform his acting style.

After a long hiatus, Lee Dong-hwi is cast as the King in the upcoming historical drama 'Gyeonghwa Suwol', the next project of top star Jeong Tae-min.

Determining his resolve to showcase method acting, he even goes so far as to go on a public fast.

However, from the very first shoot, he faces a string of bloopers and the humiliation of having a triangle kimbap hidden in his pants exposed.

To make matters worse, his older brother Lee Dong-tae, who tagged along in place of his manager, barges the set, leading to a power struggle with Jeong Tae-min.

Adding to this, unreasonable script revisions further drive the filming location into a state of uncontrollable chaos...

No more 'Algyein'!

Will actor Lee Dong-hwi be able to break free from comedy and perfect his method acting?
