The movie "The Man Who Lives with the King," which became the top box office hit in 2026 by drawing favorable reviews as a powerful historical drama with a heavy resonance and lingering performance by actors, released a poster by the river that left a deep aftertaste to mark the 9 million viewers.

In 1457, the Ganga poster, which was presented by Cheongryeongpo, a village chief who claimed to be exiled for the revival of the village, and the story of a young king who was expelled from the throne and exiled, is deeply resonant with Lee Hong-wi (Park Ji-hoon) in the movie.

The poster released shows Lee Hong-wi, who was expelled from the throne and exiled to Cheongryeongpo, sitting alone by the river and playing with water. The figure of Lee Hong-wi, squatting in a white coat, gives an inkling of how he would have dreamed of freedom even at a young age, creating a dark feeling. In particular, Yoo Hae-jin as Eom Heung-do and Park Ji-hoon as Lee Hong-wi have expressed their thoughts on the scene in the poster, doubling the audience's emotions.

Yoo Hae-jin said, "I remember Lee Hong-wi playing with water by the river of the exile, and wasn't Um Heung-do's feeling like looking at his son at that time? If it's not a exile, I'm at the age of being free, and I felt so sorry for it," he said, referring to his extraordinary affection for the scene. Park Ji-hoon also said, "The scene of squatting by the river is a scene created by Hae-jin's suggestion. Come to think of it, when you want to run around with your friends, what did you think of when you came to exile and played water alone? I tried to express the heart of King Danjong," he said, drawing attention by revealing the behind-the-scenes story of the scene and the process of struggling to express Lee Hong-wi's complex inner side.

The Ganga poster, which shook the hearts of not only the actors but also the 9 million viewers, clearly reveals the narrative of "The Man Who Lives with the King," which focuses on "human Lee Hong-wi," away from Danjong's fragmentary image of "the king of misfortune."

Meanwhile, the movie "The Man Who Lives with the King," which left a heavy impression in the hearts of 9 million viewers, is being screened in theaters.
