Song Hye Kyo Offered Female Lead in K-drama Boyfriend Opposite Park Bo Gum

View Comments

• This is another couple drama producers are insisting to pair together lol. Both have been offered Temperature of Love before. It'll be interesting to see if they would accept this drama, considering the writer doesn't have a very good track record.

• That writer is not good.... SHK should pick a movie with international awards potential instead of another rom-com which won't lead her anywhere... not a very smart move if she accepts this ?

  • Is this drama a romcom?

    • This article says "upcoming romance K-drama Boyfriend"... I guess it will be a rom-com by reading the above description. Pure romance will make me sick by watching these two doing a "pretty noona" makeout session... cough cough...

• Yeah why not song hye kyo make revenge cause her husband acting with kim ji won. If jun ji hyun can acting with kim soo hyun and lee min ho, why not her?

  • Lee Min Ho looks like an ahjussi, so the age gap is not a problem with Jun Ji Hyun.

    • Savageeeee!!! Isnt it too cruel? Lmao.

    • Did U just said Lee Min Ho looks like an Ajushi??? My God! Well ay least he is a very hot one

    • Nah. He simply looked older than his age. Also, he has been paired with noonas for his entire career (except Heirs) so people are kind of used to it.

    • LMH is 6 years older than PBG, he looks older than his age and always with a puffy face now, not a valid comparison.

    • You are savage lol

  • revenge on what exactly,ur comment doesnt make sense, why would kyo take revenge

• Gosh Gum on! No way that pairing is just so left field. I might be new to K drama land but even I know that mix is out of it! SHK is a legend and PBG is ahh umm (scratching my head). This is another Pretty Noona part 2 in the making. It spells awkward. Okay I’ll have PBG paired with Suzy any day. K producers are so unpredictable- what next Jung Woo Sung and Joy? No no no I take that back it might just happen.

• I think acting and visual wise the pairing will work fine, but the screenwriter really has a bad track records. I dropped both Entertainer and Pretty Boy despite liking the cast.

• I’m reluctant to believe in these high profile castings now. It seems like Kdramas want as much buzz as possible for their dramas and then for the potential leads to deny/reject the roles, just for unknowns to get them afterwards. This happened for Come and Hug me. I will believe the castings when the actors turn up for filming instead.

• You can just forget the story/the writer/the age gap or whatever... You'll just watch it for the lovey dovey romance-skinship between them ?

• No. No.No. N.O.

• Nope. No. Only if PBG is the brother or second lead. Song Hye Kyo's level is so much higher. And the writer of Entertainer is a downgrade.

  • I don't think Korea thinks PBG is below SHK's level tbh.

    • She's an S-Tier actress..status-wise, her level is so much higher than PBG .

    • I mean, S-list or not, Koreans did not criticize Park Bogum for being (potentially) paired with her, so they obviously consider PBG and SHK almost the same level. It's ifans I see who are looking down on PBG.

    • then I feel very sorry for SHK who has worked for 20 years and being viewed by the Koreans at the same level as PBG who has only debuted for less than 8?! Is this for real??... No one looks down on PBG. But I think the Koreans are looking down on SHK. Ridiculous!

    • I think when Korean actresses get old, people start to randomly throw leading men at them.
      Look at Kim Hee-sun, a legendary actress, but her leading man is Kim Youngkwang, a B-list actor.
      And also Son Ye-jin, her leading man is someone that is taking on a lead role for a first time.
      At least Song Hyekyo is paired with people like Song Joongki and Park Bogum, who has had successful projects and widespread fame.

      Whereas leading men their status and age are paired with actresses much younger than them.

    • Agreed 100% with candycane

    • Kim Hee Sun and Seo Ye Jin are paired with newbies because the producer has confidence that they can carry a drama on their own. That means both actresses have commercially value even just being on their own.

      I could only shake my head their labelling this so called S tier B lister A lister. FYI, you know when an actor has massive commercial value when he or she is the only one who is a big gun in the drama. If an actor or actress who you think is an A-lister or S tier yet still paired with another popular actor, that means both actors don’t have significant commercial value.

  • Higher in terms of status? Sure, she is.
    But in terms of acting skills, I don't think PBG is below SHK.

• N.O.
