I can’t believe there is a potential for a home run casting with the upcoming K-drama adaptation of the 2002 hugely impactful J-dorama A Million Stars Falling From the Sky (Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi and also known as The Smile Has Left Your Eyes). The original starred Kimura Takuya in his prime opposite Fukatsu Eri and tells a dark, twisted romance police thriller of a yarn that is so riveting to watch despite the uncomfortable subject matter. The K-version has been in the works for the last year and this week announced that actress Jung So Min has been offered the female lead. Her debut drama was in Bad Guy which has elements of A Million Stars if you ask me, and frankly she’s overdue for a straight up dark melo and also her casting will solve half my worry that this version doesn’t have the acting chops to equal the original. Now please give her a worthy male lead!

I can only think of Lee Seung Gi but he is taken. bummer
would like to see them work together
Yoon Kyun Sang please...
omg imagine the height difference lol, he looks like a giant next to even girls of decent height like Chae Soo Bin, he's going to have to bend in half if he and JSM ever have a kissing scene.
They can just kiss while lying down lmao
Isn't the male lead offered to Seo Inguk?
But no news about it since Jan though... maybe he's scared of accepting it due to his military stuff.
Kim Jae Wook for the male lead please
MTE
What is MTE?
Honestly, it's my fear that I'm being too narrow-minded but, unfortunately, I'll have to pass on this one. I can't get over some of the subject matter and I don't think I ever will. It sucks because I'm a huge Jung So-min fan.
Gosh I’m so excited to see her in another drama, and it’s on tVN which means hopefully I get to watch it. I’m unfamiliar with the subject matter, what is it about?
SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS ....
the male lead is a psycho who is horrible to women, a detective starts investigating him for a girl's death and the detective's little sister falls in love with the male lead so he decides to use her but ends up falling in love with her... SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS ... but they actually turn out to be blood related brother and sister.
Ewwww... I’m sure there will be changes to the kdrama plot then, I don’t see this going down well with the kdrama watching public.
Please let it be Yoo Seung Ho...
hmmm.... i think YSH is too young for the role. The male lead should be 30 or over. Do you know the story?
SPOILERS DONT READ IF YOU DONT ALREADY KNOW WHAT HAPPENS....
I'm seriously wondering is the subject matter allowed in Korea or will they have to change that huge plot point? I know that Korean audiences love the fake sibling love and they even had a show about cousins falling in love but having an actual brother and sister fall in love and act on it seems like something that would not be allowed in Korea (I mean they blur knives for crying out loud. so maybe they will pull something like where he thinks they are related but aren't really....
Yeah I think that’s probably what’s going to happen. They love their fauxcest plots but will get very offended if a real incestous relationship were portrayed on the small screen.
Seo In Guk would be convincing in KimuTaku's role, but if he's turned it down, I'd like to see Lee Dong Wook, Gong Yoo, Yeon Woo Jin, Lee Jun Ki, and Joo Ji Hoon in contention for the role..
Or.. someone shove the script into Won Bin's hands if SIG is out.
Absolutely adore Jung So Min and all the actors pitched above I wholeheartedly agree with but I'm looking at either Woo Doo Hwan or Ryu Jun Yeol as co lead. And if Kim Woo Bin has recovered and is well enough then I want to see him. I'm watching this drama regardless of content matter and thank goodness it's on tvN. Looking forward to the announcement of the male lead though and second leads. JSM compliments anyone. This is exciting!! Another drama to add to my must watch 2018 calendar❤️
