While it might seem like every K-drama wants to shove romance in even if it’s not romance-based, sometimes the love aspect ends up delivering in spades not necessarily in the male lead-female lead department. The Cruel City (Heartless City) bromance of Jung Kyung Ho as Jung Shi Hyun (aka The Doctor’s Son Baksa Adeul) and Yoon Hyun Min as his number one right hand man Kim Hyun Soo was the stuff of perfection.
The boys had chemistry galore and their characters were fascinating individually and mesmerizing together battling the forces of baddies from all sides. The drama gods must love them too, or better said that cable network jTBC loves them, as the two will be reuniting in the upcoming jTBC drama Falling into Innocence. This time they play romantic rivals vying for the hand of Kim So Yeon, who is definitely woman enough to handle both guys with deftly with room left to be her usual cool onscreen self.
Falling into Innocence will be directed by the PD who did Big Man, My Fair Lady, and Flowers for My Life. Writing is a newbie screenwriter Yoo Hee Kyung. It’s basically My Spring Days/Summer Scent but with the male lead getting the heart transplant cellular love awakening. Jung Kyung Ho plays a heartless corporate trader who learns to love after a heart transplant and Kim So Yeon is his secretary that’s always loved him. He then learns how to love with her by his side.
I love Kim So Yeon! Oh, and her role as a secretary, that’s new for her (I think)
Baksa and Soo!!! <3333

I have only finished Heartless City two weeks ago so this is great news.
Aww, dammit! I don’t want them to be rivals! I want them to be friends again! (I will watch anyway.)
See, it’s My Heartless Summer Scented Spring Days since JKH is a heartless businessman here… LOL
They’ve already reunited this year with their Cruel City costar Nam Gyu Ri in a MBC drama festival ep but I’m happy they’re reuniting again.
This is the epitome of a drama I would never ever ever watch normally, but with this cast – hells yeah I’ll be first in line to watch it!
Yay to a great cast, meh to a heart transplant storyline.
I love the casting ! I’m not convinced by the story but I will still watch this drama !
