  • Kim Jin Won PD-NIM will be directed this. I swear I'm in heaven right now if that's happen.... It's Kim Jin Won PD Nim who work with him in Nice Guy.... It will be a dream reunion.... Just like reunion Lee Jun Ki with Kim Jin Min. Both are world class PD.... The quality will lies on the rest of the cast and THE WITERS! Please writer, give the script justice since you are working with a brilliant PD! I will be watching this even if SOng Joong Ki reject this project. I get through Just between Lovers because of Kim Jin Won. He is that talent...

  • goddamnit...why it has to be period... I hate period drama sorry just my taste. anyhow all the best for song jong ki even I probably won't be watching.

  • I am soo ready for this drama.i hope song joon ki does this. the writers wrote queen seonduk and one of them also wrote jewel in the palace too plus director Kim jin won and boom you have at least a well made drama.

    • Probably Shin Sekyung. She was in all three of the PD's works - Queen Seondeok, Deep Rooted Tree and Six Flying Dragons. Plus she's one of the few leading actresses that is free right now.

      • Can it be Moon Chae Won? She's exceptional in period dramas and Kim Jin Won's directing style works well with her acting style. KJW and MCW is actually the reunion I want to see happen.

      • SSK were good on those dramas. I think the PD really know how to work with her acting ability and facial expression.
        So, IF the leading lady is SSK, I think it will be ok at least

      • @Jushi; Yess to Moon Chae Won! Ah if only, she is so unlucky picking drama since Innocent Man....

        Please don't be Shin Se Kyung Lol

      • SSK is ok in sageuks... chances are high that she will get an offer as she just finishes a drama and currently waiting for next suitable project... Has Kim Ji Won ever acted in sageuks? not sure if her angular face & modern look will fit sageuk style...

  • Moon chae Won+PD+Historical drama is a great combination.But when you put SJK in the picture.All I can think of is the now sunken ship ChaeKi and Song Song shippers.I can imagine the chaos.Even though the guy is married..these people dont know when to stop.

    I hope SJK finds a good co star to work with.But MCW suffered enough damage due to being associated with him professionally.

    • 2021. Coming here to express my love for both SJK and MCW as individual actors. At the same time NOT WANTING them to work together ever again. I don’t like the fact that people ship again now just because SJK got divorced.

  • @missjib Actually she's been unlucky after Good Doctor, not Innocent Man & no I don't think it'll be a good idea to reunite with Song Joong Ki, but yes to reuniting Kim Jin Won PD again one day, he is such a good PD.

    • Good Doctor was a good drama but totally sidelined her character. Joo Won was the one getting most of the praise.

    • @Evangeline I agree.The PD and historical drama is good for Moon Chae Won.But working with Song Joong Ki is a big fat NO!!!Just think about WW3 if that happen .between the sunken Chaeki ship and Song Song shippers.I can imagine the chaos.MCW has suffered more than enough damage just for being associated to this guy professionally.

    • Song Joongki's previous co-star was Song Hye Kyo. I think his next co-star will be another S-lister... Kim Tae-hee, Son Ye-jin, Han Hyo-joo, Park Shin-hye etc.

      • To be fair shk was also hated on so it was both sides it just songsong shippers are more popopular so they seem more nasty
