Prince Hours is a South Korean TV drama that aired on MBC between January and March 2007. It is also known as "Goong S" and is the sequel to the popular drama "Goong", which aired in 2006. Prince Hours follows a similar plot to its predecessor, but with a new cast of characters.

The show revolves around an alternate reality where Korea is still a monarchy. The main character, Lee Hoo (played by Seven), is the Crown Prince's half-brother and the grandson of the Queen Dowager. He is a carefree, rebellious young man who often gets into trouble with the law. Despite his roguish behavior, Lee Hoo is well-liked by the people of Korea, who see him as a symbol of the changing times.

Lee Hoo's life changes drastically when he learns that he is next in line for the throne. He is suddenly thrust into a world of politics and protocol, where every move he makes is scrutinized by the royal family and the public. Lee Hoo is not prepared for the duties of a prince, and he struggles to adapt to his new role.

The show also follows the love triangle between Lee Hoo, his childhood friend Yang Soon (played by Heo Yi-jae), and the princess, Lee Joon (played by Park Shin-hye). Yang Soon is a tough, independent young woman who runs a food stall in the palace. She has been friends with Lee Hoo since they were children, and she harbors a secret crush on him. Lee Joon, on the other hand, is the Cold-hearted princess who despises Lee Hoo at first but later develops feelings for him. The two women both compete for Lee Hoo's attention throughout the show.

The drama explores themes of love, duty, and tradition, as Lee Hoo navigates his new role as prince, and the women in his life struggle to find their place in the complicated world of royalty.

In addition to Seven, Heo Yi-jae, and Park Shin-hye, there are several other notable cast members in Prince Hours. Kang Doo-jee, the winner of the Korean reality show "Superstar Survival", makes his acting debut as the prince's bodyguard. Also, Hwang Jini, who starred in the popular drama "My Love Patzzi" plays the Queen Dowager, who is a significant figure in the show.

Overall, Prince Hours is a compelling drama that builds on the success of its predecessor. The show features a talented cast and a well-written story that keeps viewers engaged from start to finish.

Prince Hours is a series that ran for 2 seasons (44 episodes) between April 30, 2009 and on MBC
