I’m relieved that the forward direction of beleaguered SBS Wed-Thurs drama Return is finally decided. Whatever the full truth is between the beef that led to the blowup altercation on the set with the PD and lead actress Go Hyun Jung, there is still other people in the cast and crew that did nothing and should not suffer even more under these circumstances. The drama has resumed filming this week and has confirmed that Park Jin Hee will be joining the drama taking over the role of lawyer Choi Ja Hye that Go Hyun Jung played.
Park Jin Hee is probably doing this as a favor to either SBS or the production team because she’s pregnant with her second child and this is a thankless task whereby she doesn’t get the proper credit and risks upsetting supporters of Go Hyun Jung. The one thing everyone can agree on is that the show should go on and Return viewers will see a return of the drama back on the airwaves in two weeks after the Winter Olympics wraps up.
So there is a popularity award in both the film and the television sections of…
I have such a soft spot for C-actress Yang Mi and it just makes me…
So Queen of Tears was filmed in 2023 and wrapped awhile ago so it's not…
I think viewers are being either honest or stingy with their votes but the latest…
Oh what a great surprise! This drama was announced two years ago and I've long…
So this drama was filmed a few years ago and hasn't been intentionally shelved but…

I am not watching the drama.However,the show must go on.All I have to say is, SBS needs to stop being petty and focus on the drama instead of wasting their energy with smear campaigning against GHJ with all the media articles.
I agree. SBS is soo petty with their smear campaign. They need to stop and focus on the drama.
so true. there are whispers that this smear campaign comes from her ex chaebol hubby as her son is of age to see her now. perhaps it's to stop him from meeting up with his mom. If this is true, then this Return drama is actually very realistic in the portrayal of chaebol privilege and entitlement. Even that samsung heir got released and instead of being jailed is only on probation.
Poor this prego woman, she will be compared to ghj. But both are great actresses so... She'll handle this character well, hopefully. I wonder about the truth... But the drama must go on indeed... Goodluck!
It was on my list to watch but I scratched it off. The smear campaign they have undertaken against GHJ makes me sick to my stomach and I don't think I will watch another drama from SBS or the pd again.
Kinda reminds me of the Weinstein scandal, when an actress refused to have sex with him or fought back, their career is over as they are branded as someone who is 'difficult' to work with. In this case it's GHJ vs SBS/PD/Samsung family and I'm firmly on her side.
I actually like return very much, I think losing GHJ is not a big deal, to be honest, her screen time was short, thus it's not gonna majorly affect the flow of the drama. She did not look healthy, her nose always looked red even when she was indoor as if she was having flu but I refrain myself to be judgemental on her acting as I have not seen any of her previous dramas.
What drive me is the villains- they were superb and scene stealer.
Amy. She is one of best actresses. Sandglass, Spring day, What's up fox? Dear my friends. I watched these dramas and loved her in these.
Park Jin hee is a good actress. I'll wait for "return". I think that her screen time will be short too as she's pregnant and the role of GHJ wasn't well defined since the start(in my own opinion).Perhaps the reason GHJ left . SSR has the best part. But What matters is the work of a group. A drama is not just one person.
I dropped this drama as I really thought it was going to be about a smart and strong female lawyer, but instead was disappointed because it ended up focusing more on the spoiled rich characters. Even though PJH is taking over, I doubt she'll get more screen time than GHJ did. So, I don't see the point of even adding her into the storyline if they are still going to focus more on the other characters. I hope GHJ finds an even better drama in the near future so she can make a comeback from all of this. It seems these days there are too many Kdramas with mediocre idol actors/actresses so it'll be a shame to lose stars that actually have a talent for acting.
instead of whoever the artist is, the drama will not be as cool as voice season 1,border,and kakegurui.
All recent articles is to just so hard to see. If this is her ex's doing then he's damn villain in real life. He must still have feelings for her to still hold the grudge until this day. What an *hole! Isn't her life hard enough without seeing her kids growing up. He was not the one giving birth to them. Him tearing them away was all wrong on all levels. Money really can't buy happiness. Even if she was in the wrong, never letting her see the kids is sick. Now that her kids are old enough, they can make their own decisions.
we dunno the whole story. There must be a good reason why the parental right was given to her ex by the judge.
Amy:
Sure she cheated on him and it was wrong but to not even let the kids see her all those years.. Now they're big enough to decide for themselves and he's still meddling. I think she paid enough for her wrong doings. Sure, they want to punish her but they ever thought those kids being without ever seeing their mother is like!
