Yoo Seung Ho and Chae Soo Bin are Adorable at Script Reading for MBC Drama I am Not a Robot

View Comments

• His cap is back! Ruler script read must have been very special for him. *wink wink*

  • Omgee! Seungho, Sohyun and their 5 year destiny! We must wait for shy Shy reunion!

  • hihihi! People only dress up when they want to impress someone. He wanted to look good in front of sohyunnie! Love shy shy! Seungho keeping the ship sailing!

• If only Eunbin or Seeyoung were cast in this instead. So tired of seeing Soobin in dramas this year. She's not even that good. MBC must have had a tough time casting for this drama. Seungho will have to hard carry this one. Poor oppa!

  • Lorhhh she's a good actress though -_-

    • Soobin is pretty decent actress and about same age as Seungho. So I don't mind.

    • girl is too overexposed. csb fatigue has happened. please let her not do any dramas next year. she's good for a rookie but so one note why do they keep casting her??? take a break girl. three dramas is too much.

    • Yeah I don't see the problem. She did one sageuk and one modern drama with pretty different roles, rookie actresses (non idols) don't get to public broadcast weekday lead role status by passing on major opportunities, she has to prove herself through her performances and not media play.

  • lol as if you watched all of Rebel and Strongest Deliveryman to be 'so tired of seeing Soobin in dramas this year'.

  • Eunbin has a legal drama coming up (ironically, her co-star is another actor that has appeared in 3 dramas this year). Seyoung is back in supporting roles in Hwayugi :/ Either of them would have been better I agree, because people are tired of seeing CSB which may affect the drama's quality. Eunbin and Soobin should exchange roles.

• Ugh! Her again! Such a turn off. Why not cast kyj or ksr. They are so much better and prettier. This girl ain't got nothing on them.

• I love seeing how much the casting of Chae Soo Bin is making some people whine, I don't believe for one second that they even watched Rebel and Strongest Deliveryman. Too bad for you she got decent reviews from both.

  And unlike some useless idol-actresses who get blue chip projects with star writers and Hallyu costars falling in their laps while never doing even one acting audition in their lives, this girl is a rookie actress and has to hustle. As long as she fulfils all her commitments, I don't see the problem.

  • Stop hating on Suzy. No upcoming rookie actress will ever be as beloved as Suzy for next decade. She's a queen in south korea. Blame PDs and star writers for wanting her in every drama. They specifically stated that the role was written for Suzy and she was their first choice. It's them who want her in lead roles in the first place.

    • "a queen in south korea "... ?? ... you must be kidding.... ???...

    • A decade? I won't give her that long lol. She can keep milking Architecture 101 as her recent projects flop or underwhelm but there are younger stars who are way more beloved as actresses (as opposed to cf stars) even now.

      And those writers and PDs want her for PPL, not for talent lol. They've tried really hard to write roles that make her look good but you can't make a great dish with a subpar central ingredient.

  • What's great about decent? Bona got decent reviews for her drama and Minah got rave reviews for Gongshim. Decent means nothing. It's just an inch above average at best.

    • Decent reviews in a historical drama is pretty great, because Korean viewers knows those are more technically demanding in terms of skills (correct era-appropriate speech, emoting etc) and tougher on actors than modern dramas. That's why actors like Moon Geun Young, Park Bo Gum and Kim Yoo Jung are held in such high regard.

    • Historical dramas are owned by actors like Kim So Hyun, Yoo Seung Ho, Yeo Jin Gu, Ji Jin Hee, Park Eun Bin and Kim Yoo Jung because they have years of experience. That's not a fair comparison. Instead a comparison to Go Bo Gyeol and Gong Seungyoon who are rookie actresses who recently did saeguk makes more sense. To be honest both of them had better reviews than Chae Soo Bin who did well in a drama and character that was written well. It's just luck not talent.

  • Le Je Hoon wanting to act with Suzy in a romcom must be because he needs more CFs. The heights people go to bring Suzy down. Just like they used to with PSH. Suzy is a Wall and PSH is Hallyu Queen. Neither can be replaced by some rookie actress no matter their level of talent.

    • I remember the mess here when Doctors just premiered. The amount of downplay PSH get is insane. They can't bash her on relying on oppas for ratings, so they bash her "weird expressions" and other nonsensical things instead.

      I'm not a fan of Suzy's acting but you can't deny that she is here to stay. Even after her movie and UF flopped, she still gets huge offers.

    • Fine with all the arguments for Suzy... In the end, the bottom line is $$$. I don't see any overseas sales of Suzy's dramas so far... Talking about Hallyu Queen? There is none...

    • @wlfkbj_fan, a wall of what? Bricks so that drama audiences can ban their heads on at how bad Suzy’s acting is? Or a wall to be broken and for other actresses to outshine her and demonstrate what is a proper actress???

  • @teacakes Word! The way some ran down other young actresses or actors who really can act while praising who-you-know.

    • So UF isn't the most watched drama in Youko Todou? And WYWS hasn't been sold to just about every Kdrama watching country. Yes sure. Keep your delusions going.

  • I totally agree. I think she is decent, maybe not that good but for me, i don’t have a problem seeing her in dramas. I really just don’t get why female actresses got more flak than the male actors...usually the male ones get a pass on their performance or number of projects in a year and female actresses always get the blame especially if a project flopped or is bad. I may be in the minority and may get attacked but personally I do not see yoo seung ho as a great actor, decent maybe but not good (this is my opinion ok) so him and soo bin is on equal footing for me. Eom Ki Joon for me is the good one in this line-up.

    • YSH is the best actor of his generation and even older generations. Don't bring him to level of a wannabe like CSB.

• Chae Soo Bin jumping from drama to drama is really tiring... unfortunately. I hope after this she takes a break.

  • Yeah that is my only concern about her taking three dramas in a year. I don't want her to end up developing a serious health condition like Ji Soo last year.

• soooooo excited for the drama!! ^__^

• Nah, CSB isn’t overexposed. Her dramas’ are different genres and she just needs to find her break-through role. Rom-com sounds great!

• She's so plain looking and has no charisma. She'll be the worst part of this drama. Just give me the Ysh-Ukj bromance instead. Let her just be a supporting character in the back. Even knetz are sick of her. She's too desperate for a breakout but she'll never be as good as Kim Ji Won or Gong Seungyoon.

  • She's going to compete against the 3 Kims in the future. She'll never make it. Acting powerhouses vs a passable actress without goddess like visuals. Never going to happen.

    • The 3 Kims (in particular Yoo Jung) are going to render people like Suzy obsolete before they hit their mid twenties, not actresses with any measure of ability.

    • Chae soo bin can't compete against the likes of Kim So Hyun and Kim Yoo Jung. KSH has insane range and she's still a teenager and KYJ has good saeguk skills. How can she ever measure up to them. She's unfortunate to be born in their era. I don't see Suzy as a competition to them because she's far ahead of them in terms of character ages she plays. Suzy plays characters in their 30s while CSB plays 20 somethings. KSH is already taking on 20 something roles and KYJ will also in 1-2 years. Its going to be tough for CSB to make a mark if not impossible.

    • Why yoojung in particular? She's the weakest actress of the three kims and with too many scandals to her name. The other too are super clean. If they make it it'll be all of them or none at all.

    • However, South Korea are churning out approximately 10 dramas a week. Your dearest 3 Kim’s can’t do all of them. Give CSB a chance. Look at Go Ara, her drama Black is doing well. Female actors have it tough already in the acting world and she is working hard to prove herself.

    • How many of those 10 dramas are casting actresses in their 20s though? Maybe 3-4? It's a reasonable argument that the three kims will be in every relevant drama while csb will go back to supporting roles like lsy. You can't compare any actress to the three kims and whatever is left will be taken by njh, peb and other former child actresses. The new era is for child stars not rookie stars.

    • Also, ga & ssk continue to be loved and get jobs because of them being previous child actors. Competing rookie actors from that time are jba , hys(monstar) and lyb but look at where they are now. Still relative unknowns despite doing many dramas and being more talented. It's south Korea. They love their child stars more than anything.

    • @bangtantv, I was not comparing CSB to the 3 Kim’s. I said give CSB a chance to do different genres to prove herself as a young actress. Also, there is nothing wrong with doing second lead roles. It is a good time to practice their acting and learn from others. Do you really think a ‘good drama’ is only based on two lead actors?

    • Why are people constantly comparing her to the 3 Kims? The Three Kim are 1999 and 2000 liners, a freaking 6 year gap between them and CSB. You don't see people comparing Kim Ji-won (92) to Moon Chae-won (86).

      Chae Soo-bin's competitors are Suzy, Jin Se-yeon, Kim Ji-won, Gong Seung-yeon, Lee Se-young etc. Besides, even if she doesn't become A-list, it desn't mean she's gonna retire. Not everyone can be Jun Ji-hyun or Song Hye-kyo tier.

    • @abc Unless you get stuck in second lead roles like Jo Bo Ah and Yoo In Ah. Besides the only ones who gain if a drama does well are the leads. Its not like Ji Soo gained a lot form SWDBS success while the leads are swimming in CFs and Awards. Being a lead matters. Even the pay scale difference for leads and second leads is HUGE!

    • @Lilac Suzy is a wall, Jin Se Yeon is a former child actress so she'll be fine and I heard for Flower of Prison she got a lot of praise and Kim Ji Won and Gong Seung Yoon are much better actresses than her. If we are talking about same age competition you are forgetting Nam Ji Hyun, Park Eun Bin, Lee See Young, Go Ah Sung, Jung Eun Ji and Girls Day Minah. How would you rank her acting skills amongst them?

    • @wlfkbj_fan, I agree with you a big chunk of $$$ goes to lead actors if the drama hits it big. However, there has been instances where second leads have outshone the leads. Anyway, CSB isn’t at that stage. She is at the beginning of her acting career. Let her grow as an actress and if she doesn’t make it big then she can always act in weekend or daily dramas. It’s not like these dramas don’t have viewers.

• I've never seen works from Chae Soo Bin but you go girl! Get those jobs. It's hard for actresses to get lead works in prime time.

• i agree with Abc,please leave csb alone and how will we know if the producers offered it to the 3 kims and they refused.there are soo many negotiations that the public will never know about and also those of us that follows her career knows she is a good actress and has range.

  i simply cant understand people who think she should refuse this role when she hasnt reached that stage of her career yet.she has to consolidate her career unlike the 3 kims.

  • She'll never make it! She will be side tracked to weekend dramas and Daily's very soon. She doesn't have the goddess aura. Three Kims and other former child actors will be the big winners or drama and movies. No competition.
