"Goong" is a story about an average high-school girl marrying a royal prince in 21st century Korea, which is in fiction a monarchical country.

Originally based on a best-selling comic series, "Goong" was adapted for the small screen in 2006 which also became a huge hit and turned its two lead actors, Yoon Eun-hye and Joo Ji-hoon, into household names.

Ticket for the musical will go on sale on Thursday and premiere on September 8 at the National Museum of Korea.
