My baby boy is back to drama land, yay! Young idol star Shin Won Ho of Cross Gene is the latest addition to the cast of SBS fantasy mermaid drama Legend of the Blue Sea. He’s definitely low on the name recognition and screen time totem pole for this drama which is boasting the star stacked leads in Lee Min Ho and Jeon Ji Hyun, along with supporting veterans like Moon Sori and Lee Hee Joon.
Even if this little puppy gets a few minutes per episode playing a kid genius hacker role, it’s enough to sate my appetite which remains chafing at the bit still from watching all of the hot mess KBS drama Big solely for him, and watching him stay in a coma bed all the way until the bitter end. It’s been four years and I’m so excited his K-drama return is in such a high profile project. He’ll be a perfect side kick for Min Ho-ssshi to help him woo his mermaid love.
So the three big male roles are now filled by Lee Min Ho, Lee Hee Joon, and Shin Won Ho, and the drama itself will be similar to screenwriter Park Ji Eun‘s last big hit You From Another Star in that there will be a sageuk portion and a modern day narrative, with Lee Min Ho playing a nobleman in the Joseon era and a conman in moderns times, while Jeon Ji Hyun is the ageless mermaid.
So one good aspect of producer Yu Zheng being a mega hype artist for his…

Perhaps I'm missing something, but what do you like about him? Not trying to be insulting. It's an honest question.
He's cute and she liked his character in Big?idk koala also likes kang minhyuk from cnblue and some more idols so its not surprising
He showed potential from the littel he got to do ib Big. I think it was only one ep after that he was in a coma.
Koala, I thought of you when I saw his casting news. ^^
After reading the news I also thought of Koala. I remember following the recaps on Big and he left a good impression. It's a great choice for him being that there is so much star power attached to the project. Looking forward ton it and hoping it's good.
The guy from Big, I've never seen him in anything since Big, I'm glad he's making a comeback in a drama again, wishing him luck
He was also in the Japanese movie ZEDD with the rest of CROSS GENE's members. it's a zombie apocalypse movie and it's available to watch on YT with Eng subs.
I also thought of Koala when I heard this news lol
I am so there with you. That pout was one of the reasons I stayed around for that long.
Oh Koala oh! I feel yah :)
