• is it hard to be a second lead these days or is it hard to be a second lead in projects where the female leads are SM-idols?

  i feel like SM interferes the plots of these two projects where its idols play THE female leads.

  • My thoughts exactly. If I had to play against an SM idol, I would run FAR away.

  • at least Karma taking it's toll on them w/ most of their dolls flopping the drama ratings! That's what you call, dont play God!

• Can K-drama just stop making second lead girl/guy fall for the lead guy/girl while there's no way lea
  d

  • Sorry, accidentally click post comment. That's why I hate texting in phone T_T

    *while theres no way lead girl and lead guy will NOT end up together :( Is there any drama where we actually have first lead couple and second lead couple, instead of tiresome love triangle or rectangle?

    Anyway, im glad u r out. Good luck next time.

    • Protect the Boss eventually had the first leads and second leads end up with each other.

    • Happens very rarely in kdrama.

      Gotta watch jdrama instead, where it happens at least sometimes, or where sometimes no one ends up with anyone.

      I could so do without love triangles, especially love triangles that are contrived (e.g. ex thinking s/he has rights after ludicrous separation scenarios or those love triangles where the leads semi-respond because of feelings of guilt/idiocy/bla bla bla).

      I hope she's out because it means that finally someone realised she better be given a lead role in a good project.

    • @JEN

      I thought those were the leads in Protect the Boss?

      Dream High might be an example... at least Taecyon seemed like he was half of the OTP until a turn rather later. (Not sure how the casting officially was in terms of leads there, but to me that drama always seemed like it did a switcheroo.)

    • Alone in Love comes to my mind. And in a way anything by Ahn Pan Seok, there're love triangles, but they aren't that obvious.

    • there are dramas where the leads did not end up together, best example is Baker Takgu. Eugene's character ended up with JooWon's character who was the half brother of Yoon Shi Yoon..
      Other dramas I can think of is Feast of the Gods, Queen of Reversals...

      as for dramas where the 1st leads were a couple as well as the 2nd leads ended up together, I think Heartstrings had that already. I think Master's Suns is a another good example.same with Emergency couple were the supporting casts ended up paired up but i guess not really have 2nd leads ending up together...

    • Secret Garden :-)

• Maybe if they didn't always make the second lead the rude & annoying girl more people wouldn't mind as much playing that role.

• Ding, ding, ding! Her saying goodbye is a very bad sign for the drama. That character must have been written on a post-it & must be cliche as hell. Maybe she earned enough money with her Heirs apparition & doesn't need another underwhelming drama on her filmo. ;)

• Second female leads in kdramas are always a stereotype at this point except for some exceptions...the only way these characters make a mark is sometimes when they steal the show from the leading lady thanks to their better acting or charisma.. Anyway I wasn't going to watch this show b just for her so I'm glad she's out

• yang jin sung deserves better... she is a good actress and if she plays 2nd lead it has to be a really good role and worth it

  • She certainly does. When she made such an impression in Bride I figured they'd do nothing worthwhile for her afterwards & they've lived up to expectations. No wonder I'm in a drama slump.

• Good for her, 2nd lead sucks when she have so much more potential than Krystal.

• They both deserve better than being a part of those upcoming flop messes.

• HOPE NO MORE...I WONT BE SURPRISED IF RAIN PULLS OUT TOO LOL FREAKING KYRSTAL FOR FEMALE LEAD aRGH!!! shoot already will yah.

• *phew* Im Joo Eun escaped in time! That drama is going to be a mess!

  I'm guessing they promised her an interesting role, but after she signed on they told her it would be a lame and cliche role after all.

  I know she is really not picky with her projects. She just made an appearance on "Endless Love", acting a few short scenes that got her no attention at all.

  Please Im Joo Eun, pick a lead role next. Go for cable dramas!
