Hailed as one of 2026’s hottest titles and fueling a viral 'Segye-Seori' fever, SBS’s Friday–Saturday drama My Royal Nemesis is dropping an uncut script book for fans.
The newly announced writer’s edition of the My Royal Nemesis script compiles the full, unedited scripts that didn’t make it to air, promising fresh fun beyond the broadcast. Readers can dive deeper into the work by following the detailed stage directions that drew out Ji-yeon Lim and Nam-jun Heo’s standout performances, along with the characters’ hidden backstories—now on the page.
There’s plenty of bonus reading, too. From an in-depth interview with the writer on how the drama’s universe came to be, to a 'Writer’s Pick: Best Lines by Episode' section that sent viewers’ excitement levels soaring, the script book opens a new world you can only experience in print.
The extras and packaging, designed to satisfy collectors, are also a hot topic. High-resolution stills of iconic scenes are included across all volumes, plus printed reproductions of hand-signed autographs and greetings from the main cast and the writer. As a publication-day bonus, the fan-favorite 'Segye-Seori Life Four-Cut' photobooth strips and printed 'ID photos' come bundled with the book.
In particular, this script book answers fans’ passion by featuring the much-talked-about 'black mother-of-pearl' design from the series as its cover. Additionally, a first-print-limited 'Segye-Seori Character Poster Bookcase Edition' will be released to further boost its collectability.
Netizens reacted with comments like, "This is happy spending," "There’s a limited quantity, so it could sell out," and "This is my first time buying a script book," signaling major buzz.
Pre-orders are available now through online bookstores including Aladin and Kyobo Bookstore.
