The Cast of Descendants of the Sun Head to Script Reading at KBS Studios

The train is leaving the station for upcoming K-drama Descendants of the Sun faster than Song Joong Ki changed out of his military fatigues. The cast gathered this week at KBS studios (featured prominently in currently airing KBS variety industry drama Producer) for the script reading, the arrival walk which normally isn’t covered by the media unless it involves a drama written by buzzy scribe Kim Eun Sook, stars just out of the military nation’s beloved young actor Song Joong Ki, and paired with top actress Song Hye Kyo.

The four leads were snapped heading into the studio for the table read, with the two leading ladies Song Hye Kyo and Kim Ji Won managing to look ravishing even dressed down. Mostly movie actor Jin Goo rounds out the main four, making it a very eclectic and intriguing cast for what is billed as Kim Eun Sook’s most ambitious drama to date. Fully pre-produced, mostly shot overseas, this drama is either going to soar or crash and burn. My money is on it working, mostly because I can’t see Song Joong Ki not making the most of his first post-military role and selling the Kim Eun Sook type male lead with an underlying kinder twist.

  • I watched One Sunny Day with Kim Ji Won and she was really cute :) I'm happy to see her in a new drama, I hope she will not be the traditional b..tch.

    I'm really curious about this drama !

      • I saw it too, and yes, it's been subbed. Go to mydramalist, search for the drama "One Sunny Day", and after you've clicked open the drama's page, scroll down to the comments section. The first comment as of now includes a link to where you can find the mini-drama. It's a bit of a hassle to download (individual adfly links for each episode and each subtitle), but the links are legit and the drama is a nice quick watch.

    • If she really needs to play the villain again I hope she's a really evil one who does things for power instead for a man. The actress is pretty good at being mean on screen so she can pull it off if the script doesn't suck that is. But I don't think the main 2 would have chosen a crappy script, I trust their decision so I'm excited for this.

  • waaaaa *super excited*

    i love and like all the four stars, from Song Jong-Ki (he is a man now!) to Jin Goo (my fav from All In the drama) to Song Hye Kyo (looks like she has chems with the 2 men) to Kim Ji-Won (hope she'll shine even more here)

  • Song Hye Kyo and Kim Ji Won are gorgeous even in that messy/rumpled state, life is unfair sometimes.

    (kind of surprised by KJW to be honest, she was always pretty but I guess it takes seeing a pic of her next to a pic of Song Hye Kyo to realise she's that beautiful)

  • Song Hye Kyo is really young and beautiful ~~
    Don't know why so many stupid girls think that she is older than Song Joong Ki and doesn't match with his appearance at all
    She is pretty, always. I remember when I first saw her in Autumn In My Heart when I was 6 years old. Now I'm 21 I still think she's godness

    • "Don’t know why so many stupid girls think that she is older than Song Joong Ki"
      Stupid girls are those who don't check their facts before making public statements like the one above, and not the girls who know for a fact that Song Hye-kyo (b. 1981) is indeed older than Song Joong-ki (b. 1985). But hey, nice job there calling the kettle black.

      Song Hye-kyo is of course gorgeous, at any age, and I do think she'll
      match well with Song Joong-ki. I'm really looking forward to their drama.

      • Of course I know she is older than SJK, but she looks much younger than her age.
        I like her since Autumn in my heart when she was just 19 years old, and I have watched most of her dramas until now: Autumn in my heart, All In, Hotelier, Worlds Within, That Winter The Winds Blows. So there is no way I don't know her real age.
        Song Joong Ki is so lucky to be in a drama with her!

  • The leading ladies are gorgeous and the guys look great as well. Such a pretty cast and talented to boot. Btw does SJK look more buff to anyone else? He used to look very skinny, but not anymore. Serving in the army has its perks.

  • I'm scared of loving Ji Won with him more than SHK the leading lady which I do love her acting and chemistry with her leading men! But whenever JiWon on screen I keep seeing her and her only. So I hope the story is not about two ladies loving the same guy because she's just gorgeous and I can't handle it. Make Ji won go far far away form SJK, please.
    And make her act with him again in another project as his leading woman!

  • So excited that he is back from duty. He is awesome in everything. Sjk has never failed the audience before... And I think this will propel him even higher than he was before.

    The ladies look fabulous! Can't wait
