Set during the reign of infamous king Yeon-San in Chosun Dynasty (16th-century) of South Korea, 'The King and the Clown' is a story of Kong Gil (Lee Jun-ki) and Jang Saeng (Kam Woo-seong), two clowns who produce a satirical play, which criticises the country's ruler. They are highly popular amongst the common people. But it gets them into a world of trouble when the two clowns are arrested and accused of treason, a crime that carries the death penalty. The clowns then make a deal with the king - to make the king laughs with their play-acting and they will be free.
