I suppose I could have titled this post with the confirmed news, which is that Mickey Yoochun has signed on as the lead for the upcoming MBC drama I Miss You. Sadly his involvement does not get me excited in any drama in the least. This drama is scheduled to air after Arang and the Magistrate which means it really needs to get a move on with finalizing the entire cast. What piqued my interest in this drama initially was rumors that Chun Jung Myung has been approached to play the other male lead, which just sent me into howls of noooooooo. PIE is way too seasoned an actor to be playing second fiddle to anyone, much less Yoochun. Now it appears that his involvement is looking less and less likely. So I wiped away my sweat of relief only to hear the news that Yoon Eun Hye is reported deep in talks to play the leading lady. What? Once again, nooooooooo, this pairing does nothing for me. I’ve now watched Yoochun in four consecutive dramas and still the guy goes not click with me. He’s by far the best acting one out of the DBSK boys, and his real life cuteness cannot be denied. But as a leading man he leaves me feeling this odd emptiness, like he can be replaced by a cardboard facsimile of himself and I wouldn’t feel the difference. Stranger things have happened, and it wasn’t until my 3rd Lee Seung Gi drama that I fell head over heels in love with my boy. Perhaps this pairing of my beloved Eun Hye with Yoochun will flip the switch for me on him.
So far only Yoochun and the two kids playing the child counterparts of the OTP have been confirmed. That would be Yeo Jin Gu and Kim So Hyun, reuniting them from as the alterna-OTP in the child cast of The Moon that Embraces the Sun. Based on the synopsis I read, I Miss You sounds straight out of the early Hallyu vault. It’s about first loves that are torn apart for whatever reason and many years later when they are adults they try to find their way back to each other. Yoochun’s character grows up to be a cop and he’s described as playful off the job but a determined crime fighter on the job. There is no description yet on the female lead. I know I ought to be happy about the possibility of Eun Hye coming back to the small screen, but I can’t lie about being ambivalent about this. I mostly wish she would pick a different genre and have another co-star. But knowing my luck, this drama might turn out to be all sorts of awesome and I’ll fall madly in love with it. I Miss You will air this November on Wed-Thurs.

I like Yoochun. For me, he did great in Rooftop Prince. And I'm so excited to hear that he might be paired of with my fave YEH. I just hope the storyline is good too.
Me too, I like him in rooftop prince. Maybe ms. koala you have to watch his dramas again.
"But as a leading man he leaves me feeling this odd emptiness, like he can be replaced by a cardboard facsimile of himself and I wouldn’t feel the difference"
YES. He lacks charisma and intensity on screen, just like Lee Minho, although he's technically a decent actor. I'm turned off by the storyline more than the cast though.
I'm going to pray to the drama gods because Yoochun won my heart in Rooftop Prince and Yoon Eun Hye won it in Goong. Hopefully, if she is cast she can be one sassy, badass lead which might make this drama worth its' while.
Can you imagine the kissing scenes between these two 'cause he did OK in RP and she got her master's degree in Lie to Me. ;-)
Hahahahaha funny and sooo tueee
Soo not funny, and totally not true. She is gonna look like a maid beside yoochun. Sad for her. Gongyu you would say? He isn't 0.00001% able to compare to yoochun. My god sake.
He's going to look tiny next to her. I like her best with tall big guys like Gong Yu. She made the leading man look so puny in My Fair Lady. She's a big sexy goddess with broad shoulders.
totally agree!!!
Ohhhh~ I would rather YOON EUN HYE to not accept this project, because she is totally not SUITABLE for the prince yoochun who is perfect in the inside and outside and handsome inside and outside. True.. They aren't match everything, it's hard to find a girl that is suitable for yoochun~ uhhh~ maybe YEH aren't suitable for the princess role. Sorry for the girl fans
I hope YEH will not accept this project... Firstly, her partner is much younger than her(so, i thought), i don't think he's good looking to be paired to wuri Eun Hye who's very pretty inside out. Secondly, I think the producer is just taking advantage of Eun Hye's popularity after Lie To Me. And thirdly,for me they aren't match, in everything. Sorry for the guy's fans, i just don't feel the chemistry.
YEH is less than 2 years older than him. I don't think that's too bad.
I think Yoon Eun Hye was born in 1985. Yoochun, on the other hand, was born in 1986. As far as I kow, most of the TVXQ boys are 86ers. That makes Eun Hye a year older only. :)
YEH was born in October 1984 and Yoochun was born in June 1986, making them only ~ 2 years apart in age.
Lie to me was not that popular. I loved it, but the rating weren't good. Especially when you consider the big name leads.
I just hope the story is good. And, apparently she is not in talks, she already accepted. But I will believe that when I see pictures of the script reading!
KOALA YOU HAVE DISAPPOINTED MEEE :(
We usually have the EXACT SAME impressions on things that I sometimes take yours for granted as mine but no no this time I'm disappointed, YOOCHUN AND YOON EUN HYE IS LIKE THE OTP I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!1 DAEBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAK
Noooo! Dramagod says it ain't so! I want her leading man to be a hot oppa that can really act.
Just thinking she'd be the best choice for this.
It's going to be fans war between both side. Both have big fans base and if nothing going smoothly eg, rating fail,-I can't imaging that.
Aigoo, drama gods, can you conspire and NOT let this one happen? Please, drama gods, give wuri Eun Hye a MAN for her next drama. I know her Ji Hwan oppa can't be her leading man for the time being, so can you give her So Ji Sub or my Won Bin instead? If you grant my wish, promise, I'll be good. (-;
Or Lee Byun Hun...
or Song Seung Hun.........
or joo sang wook? i really want to see both of them. maybe chemistry?
p/s: just my opinion :P
or Joo Ji Hoon! Please dramagods!!! Yoochun might be good looking etc etc... but YEH is really like a Hallyu star in terms of acting and she may shadow him with her stellar performance! Please someone with a higher calibre and longer acting in acting! I mean no offense, Yoochun was great in Rooftop Prince but we know that YEH seldom appears in small screen so I wish she doesn't waste her time with another drama that would have the possibility on being a flop again? I wish she would work again with Joo Ji Hoon....
