Although Jesus will be the first to get the joke. Hint:Read the subtitles carefully... Then again maybe I'm getting the joke that isn't there.

Re: This is for everyone....
Its a wonderful parody and, like Russian Matryoshka dolls, layers and meanings are nested one inside the next.
First of all, I could only watch it in short bursts. I was laughing too hard to read the subtitles (or to listen for what little Korean I still understand). The cast consists of the popular Korean boy band Super Junior-T, which has a large fan club of teenage groupies in both Japan and Korea. They are popular enough that they were the opening act for last years annual Korean Music Festival in Los Angeles.
Super Junior-T is a 6-member subgroup of the highly successful 13-member boy band Super Junior which won the MTV Asia award for Favorite Artist in their first year. All members of the group have also performed as serious actors in film or TV dramas. Three of them performed the voices for the Korean dubbing of Alvin and the Three Chipmunks.
They were performing a broad parody of one of the most popular Korean prime time soap operas, Goong (Palace). Its not the only comedy that theyve performed, and theyve become popular with a more adult audience for their non-musical performances.
Goong was based on an extremely popular 17 volume girls comic book series of the same name. Theres an English translation of the comic books available, as well as a subtitled release of the entire TV drama. A dubbed version was shown on Canadian TV in 2007-08.
I do not remember ANY eunuch in the original drama, which is set in 2005 (though I havent read the comic book series), so hes most likely a part of the parody .
If Jema is thinking of the princes name Eunhyuk (pronounced just about the same as eunuch) as part of the parody, its actually the real given name of the singer/performer/actor. Hes very good in all his roles.
