In the 2009 hit drama The Great Queen Seondeok, Bidam (Kim Nam-gil) is portrayed as a friend of Princess Deokman (later Queen Seondeok of Silla), and as the secret, abandoned son of Mishil and King Jinji (a fact invented for the series).
After the success of Mishil, Gim published Farewell Forever and Ever, Farewell Forever (Yeongyeong ibyeol yeong ibyeol) about the fate of Princess Jeongsun, wife of the ill-fated King Danjong who ascended the throne at the age of twelve, but whose power was stolen from him by his uncle, leading to the boy king’s tragic death.
