tvN Teen Drama Bring It On Ghost Finalizes Leads Kim So Hyun, Taecyeon, and Kwon Yul

Casting is finalized for the leads of upcoming tvN teen supernatural drama Let’s Fight Ghost (Bring it On, Ghost), adapted from the popular webtoon about the hijinks of a teen boy ghostbuster and the teen girl ghost who butts heads with him. Playing the teen ghost is 17 year old teen actress wunderkind Kim So Hyun, but playing the teen boy is 28 year old idol-actor Taecyeon. On top of that the second male lead is going to be 34 year old perennial second lead Kwon Yul, making the collective ages of the two male leads to be so much older than Kim So Hyun and the age bracket of the characters I’m not sure where to start kvetching. At this point the only thing I remain optimistic about is that the screenwriter was the second writer on Producer and I Live in Cheongdamdong. Let’s Fight Ghost airs in the early summer following Again Oh Hae Young on Mon-Tues.

  • Why are they pairing this (and too many) little girl with grown (talentless imho) men, when there are plenty of young talented age appropriate (TALENTED!) actors waiting for their next big break.

    Park Geon Tae
    Seo Young Joo
    Oh Jae Moo
    Yoon Chan Young

    So disappointed in the male casting. Another drama I am going have to skip...

  • kwak dong yeon was perfect for this role. i'm still going to give this a shot but i will never get over how they completely skipped over someone who doesn't only physically resemble bongpal but who also the has the acting chops to give the role justice. nothing against taecyeon but i have no idea how this casting got finalized.

  • Nooooooooooooooooooooooo
    (Sorry I'm lost for words after hoping that this ain't gonna happen :( )

  • Soo okay. I love Kwon Yul and his acting... But.. why did he and his company accept this? He is way too old as second lead for a 17 year old. Kwon Yul can be So Hyun's dad (ok, older brother first).
    Then, here comes Taecyeon. I am not a fan of 2PM,his acting is a hit and miss for me but I do like his personality in 3MealsADay..
    Just like Kwon Yul, Taec is too old for So Hyun. He can be her older brother in a show, BUT not as a ROMANTIC PARTNER.
    URGH! it is sooooo weird and disgusting that the casting staff (whoever they are) cast WAY OLDER male casts TO SUPER YOUNGER female lead.
    What the hell are they thinking?! Are they out of their mind?
    I mean common guys, you can cast male lead and second lead that has an age that is close enough to female lead.
    Srsly, i cant. I CANT!

  • I'M SCREAMING, THIS CASTING JUST WENT DOWNHILL AS SOON AS THEY ANNOUNCED TAECYEON fkn hell!! Don't the producers see how wrong this pairing is? TVN DON'T DISAPPOINT ME..

  • I hope tvn does not loose their sanity and pick bad dramas when they had dramas like 'signal' in their palette.Signal ruined most of the dramas these days for me lol.

  • I like miseang and signal best in TVN. I wasn't on the bandwagon for the reply series. I only like reply 1997. TVN has been really weird with casting and storyline.

  • I will continue to hope that the Knetz' power can change the male lead(sorry taec). But from the comments I've read, they don't seem to be bothered that a 28 yo might be romancing an underaged actor. Unless, of course there's no romance at all.

    But in TvN, I'll trust. Even if I'll caught in the friggin trap.

  • I used to trust tVN until InHo in a Trap! Looks like I'm out for this new drama unless I want to watch a block of wood on screen. Love the plot and the teen actress but the rest is just a big NO. I'm so disappointed with the male cast.
