Might as well string me up and beat me, the pain will at least be short lived, whereas Missing You will haunt me for 24-episodes equal to 12 weeks equal to 3 months. That’s a long time to suffer the pain of seeing two of my favorite actors in the same drama where they are not the OTP. Seriously? If beating me doesn’t work, then tranquilize me and let me wake up 4 months later. The crazy casting train of Missing You continues with the release of two dueling news reports today – one stating that Chun Jung Myung has reportedly confirmed as the second male lead of MY with Yoochun and Yoon Eun Hye, and the other saying he rejected it and will do a movie next. What’s hilarious is that these two news articles came out within minutes of each other. LOL, K-news, you continue being lame, okay? With the crazy state of this drama’s casting, I won’t even blink an eye if I wake up tomorrow and he’s been un-cast or something weird like that. Assuming he has accepted, I won’t even bother discussing the ignominy of him taking on a second male lead role at this stage in his career, but just knowing he’s involved in some unrequited love triangle with Eun Hye and Yoochun sends me weeping into my pillow already. So. Not. Fair. I think its safe to say that the Playground will be second leading shipping from the get go if he is indeed in MY, and unless PIE’s character is a serial killer of babies and furry cute animals, I will go down with his ship. Yes, it’s nice to know that I am already the minority of 1 going against the grain, but eh, that’s what makes it fun. With four episodes worth of the kids, the adults will start filming at the end of next week.
This is as bad as when the drama gods allowed PIE and Moon Geun Young to do a drama together (yay!) and it turned out to be the godawful Cinderella Unni (boo!). On the upside, PIE is now the only male actor who has acted opposite my two favorite K-actresses. It’s like the drama gods want me to love him even more than I already do. If the second male lead of MY is not PIE, then the drama is treading on shaky ground not having a main cast locked down at this stage in the game.

I have never root for the second lead before but if he is cast then I will go down with this ship too!
I'm with the minority group too! I'm sorry, but I prefer chun jung myung over yoochun in this case. Don't get me wrong. It's not that i dislike yoochun as an actor, but come on! How could they offer CJM the second leading role!
right on, sister! Yoochun has always struck me as the type that can't hold his ground among veterans like CJM and YEH. I don't think I'll be watching this drama although YEH is my beloved.
agreee :D
CJM can't be the second lead, he should be the first.. throw this project oppa myung myung.. please.. please. don't take it, it will hurts me :(
I know right!! Yoochun's a puppy too but I love CJM over him any day. First and foremost being CJM having much better acting chops than Yoochun.
My baby Chun Jung Myung as second lead? That's absurd. But but but, if YEH's character falls for him in the end... still... nohh..
With filming for the adults starting in a week, I hope they have someone soon.... News of it being CJM and others saying it is not, I am so confused... There are also rumors of Lee Wan being the second lead, but at this point no one knows who the second lead really is.
NOOOOOOOOOO! It would be understandable for CJM not to be the main man, if it's an ensemble cast (ex. Giant). At least in May Queen, articles, interviews, posters (adult and young) has 3 people on it. BUT, MY looks like a straight-up drama of first love of 2 people. idk
This whole drama is confusing to me. The thing is, most dramas that comes out with a drama behind a drama like this one, usually don't do well in the ratings. I hope it still does ok. I just can't imagine CJM agreeing to do the 2nd lead in this particular drama. But stranger things have happened.
Yeah I totally dont think he's doing this......if they said he has plans to do a movie next, I'm going to believe that....simply because there is no way in hell he'd revert to a second lead role at this point in his career...especially since he's been looking advance it...i mean thats what the going global and doing a cdrama thing was all about, right??? It really would pain me to seeing playing second fiddle...and I do like Yoochun and all, but PIE+ YEH would've been OTP gold
Btw this is completely unrelated but since this is like the only site that talked about this drama...Jung So Min's Can we got married? released two additional trailer...And it looks really good...and that show airs after Miss You
,or we can be overly optimistic and pray that he be casted as second male lead then pull a Park Shi-hoo on dramaland.. :)
Lol..that would be like the best revenge on the kdramaverse ever...girl giving up eternal/pure first love OTP for awesome sexy second lead oppa.... Finally a drama where ppl learn to let go of first love
This drama is so crazy—I wonder if there will be more drama in the casting than in the actual show. What is the deal? Is the script iffy enough that nobody will take it? If so, they must be paying Yoon Eun Hye (and Yoochun) mega bucks to be in it.
Are you kidding me ? The scriptwriter of Can You Hear My Heart, Smile You & The Last Scandal write an "iffy" script ? No way.
It's more likely that CJM doesn't want to be the 2nd male lead.
While for YEH, she's already agreed to star in this drama a while ago but they just released it recently. She agreed because she like the script, so I think no more MFL & LTM fiasco.
They always pay Yoon Eun Hye a lot even before this drama. It was reported that she is the second highest paid actress after Go Hyun Joong.
You mentioning Go Hyung Jung got me thinking of 'What's up fox?' which Chun Jung Myung co-starred in.
They should have just gone with PIE and YEH as the mains!!
I mean I don't mind Yoochun and all but if there is a choice to cast Yoochun and PIE - you'd think that it was a no-brainer!! So to offer PIE 2nd lead is insulting!
I really dont understand how that is insulting -_-
He was offered a role...if he likes the character and the story then he will accept it no matter..You know PIE can reject the role if he finds it insulting -_-
Seriously i dont understand
the whole fuss regarding him being cast as the 2nd lead...dont like the main lead then quit because its gonna be really really hard to get through the whole drama...Also please wait for more news on the character he is being offered before passing judgements..
