The moving parts that went into assembling the next SBS weekend drama unexpectedly rounded up not just leads I like but a supporting cast that’s also quite solid. Currently SBS drama Secret Mother is piling on the lies, makjang, and conflict, but once it wraps the next drama About Her will pull a plastic surgery and memory loss double whammy on the leading lady played by Nam Sang Mi. I like her so much it makes the double makjang palatable, plus her two leading men Kim Jae Won and Jo Hyun Jae sweeten the need to watch pot. The supporting cast just added Yang Jin Sung, Jinwoon, newbie Kang Hoon and perennially supporting female actress Han Eun Jung who I recognize by sight for her works if not by name. It’s funny that all three leads are married in real life and now solidly in the weekend drama territory, nothing wrong with that but it marks yet another reminder of how time flies and once each were headlining high profile weekday dramas.
Good cast– the double makjang premise has me worried but I’ll definitely check it out.
Nice casting – lots of my favorites from the golden time of dramas in the 2000s. This drama (and the past Good Witch weekend) drama really is nostalgic of what drama storytelling was like back during the Hallyu Wave. It definitely caught my interest!
