The King: Eternal Monarch might have already ended, but we'll forever hold the drama dear to our hearts. With its gripping storytelling, ace cinematography, and stellar cast, the fantasy and sci-fi drama isn't one we can move on from so easily. But I'd like to zero in on the pool of child actors who warmed our hearts in the many time-traveling scenes scattered all throughout the show. Almost all of the main adult cast had younger counterparts which, of course, made us curious about these uber-talented kids! No surprise here: You can find them all on Instagram (whose accounts are probs being handled by their parents, TBH), so check them out for more adorbs posts from our bb faves.
