Ooooh, a fun game, I want to play too! SBS is opening up a bulletin board with a poll open for 1 week asking viewers which of its drama OTPs do the fans want to see reunited in another drama again. Remember, only SBS dramas but there are sooooo many classics and great pairings to choose from. Currently viewers have been posting and the main picks for reuniting again are: Lee Jun Ki and IU from Moon Lovers, Namgong Min and Park Eun Bin in Stove League (and also picks for her and Kim Min Jae for Do You Like Brahms?), Lee Min Ho and Kim Go Eun from The King: Eternal Monarch, Ji Sung and Lee Se Young in Doctor John, Hyun Bin and Ha Ji Won since Secret Garden, Ji Chang Wook and Nam Ji Hyun in Suspicious Partner, and Kim Soo Hyun and Jeon Ji Hyun in their epic You From Another Star. Koala’s own picks are: Jo In Sung and Gong Hyo Jin from It’s Okay, It’s Love, Lee Jong Seok and Park Shin Hye from Pinocchio, and I still want Kim Soo Hyun and Nam Ji Hyun to do a drama together after they were the teen counterparts in Will it Snow for Christmas.
Awww but for me Shin Sae Kyeong and Yooo Ah In would be nice
Ohh.. yes.. kim soo hyun and nam ji hyun. I ship the pairing.I like them in WISC.
But I guess moonlovers will win especially if international voters can choose too
Oops.. sorry.. I don’t know that I hit your reply button when I want to post comment
I Really like Shin Se Kyung and Yoo Ah In too! Such pretty costars. I enjoyed them in both disaster drama Fashion King and much better Six Flying Dragons. Lol
Rain and Song Hye Kyo, they starred in the popular classic romcom “Full House” back in 2004, isn’t it about darn time they have a reunion ?? It’s been 17(!!) years.. Full house was kinda childish, I’d like them to be in a more mature drama this time. I’m not a fan of Full House (I prefer thai remake) but they did have great chemistry~
I want ji chang wook and kim yoo jung in another action pact drama with a good script
Felt their chemistry was nor utilized
Plz plz plz god
Merry x’mas
Same, no kiss between the couple was a waste 🙁
i wonder whether they will work together again (hope not, praying to Drama Gods)
ji chang wook and your girl lacked chemistry, it’s only you and her fans who want a reunion project for them.
also, during filming of BSR, Ji chang wook seemed very distant to kim yoo jung. it appears that he does not like your girl.
Moreso, He is much much closer with his current co star Kim Ji won and He seems to be very fond (genuinely) of her as well and they looked good together.
Ha Ji Won and Hyun Bin!
As for a new couple on screen, I would love to see Ha Ji Won with Lee Jun Ki in an action drama!
Jo In-sung and Song Hye-kyo (That Winter, The Wind Blows), Jung Kyung-ho and Lee Min-jung (Smile, Honey), Lee Bum-soo and Jung Ryeo-won (History of the Salaryman) and Jang Na-ra and Shin Sung-rok (The Last Empress) would be nice.
would love to see nam ji hyun and ji chang wook again… they were amazing together in suspicious partner…
That’s why I’m such a koala fan. My 3 pics are the same ? I have been waiting forever for KSH and NJH to be reunited. I re-watch WISFC just for them!
Another one would be the Nokdu couple Kim So Hyun and Jang Dong-yoon.
Yes yes. I want KSH and JDY in a modern drama.
Clearly, just because they are in the same agency does not mean they will reunite in a new drama, not even after 17 years since their first drama together. I NEED a new Gong Yoo and Gong Hyo Jin project!!!!
Kim soo hyun and Nam Ji Hyun as lead roles in a melodrama
*in. Hopefully soon
Would love a reunion of Ha ji Won and Hyun Bin.
Both don’t seem to age.
Hyun Hyun Couple(MLFTS), Hyunbinnie and HJW(Secret Garden), Lee Sang Yoon and Ku Hye Sun(Angel Eyes). Also Rooftop Prince couple, tho this one would be impossible.
I almost forgot the suspicious Housekeeper was in SBS too. So Kim So Hyun and Seo Kang Joon reunión also.
Reunion drama for Kang Ha Neul and Nam Ji Hyun. they had strong chemistry when they did Angel eyes.
For years I’ve wanted to see a Gong Yoo-Yoon Eun Hye drama reunion. The ‘Coffee Prince’ special was such a gift this year. It would be great if was something in the same vein as ‘One Spring Night’ with YEH playing a very feminine character this time around.
I also want to see a Kim Soo Hyun-Suzy reunion. Loved them in Dream High and loved the time they were both spokesmodels for Beanpole together. They have great chemistry, so a drama like ‘Because It’s My First Life’ would be nice.
Kang Ha Neul and Nam Ji Hyun are so good together I dropped Angel Eyes when the main leads took over the roles. Would love to see them in something like ‘Because It’s My First Life’
Can’t wait for Kim Yoo Jung and Yeo Jin Goo to finally reunite. Romance in a modern day slice of life would be nice.
Last but definitely not least is my absolute favorite OTP of the year, Nana and Park Sung Hoon. The chemistry those two had in ‘Into The Ring’ just made me want them reunited in a drama at top speed. Nana just showed she’s a rom com natural in this drama (as if all her years in Orange Caramel wasn’t proof enough) but I don’t know if I want those two in another rom com or a drama with a more intense romance.
They don’t count as OTPs but still waiting for these ‘2nd lead – 1st lead reunions’ ala ‘Heartstrings’
Yoo Ah In and Park Min Young
Moon Ga Young and Woo Do Hwan
Yook Sung Jae and Kim So Hyun
Adding to the OTP reunion list
Won Bin and Shin Min Ah – even though a CF doesn’t count, these two had amazing chemistry in their series of CFs for Maxim T.O.P – Would love to see them in something that has the same vibe as those CFs
Jun Ji Hyun and Ha Jung Woo – Intense romance drama or movie with those two just needs to happen
Adding to the 2nd lead – 1st lead reunion list
Won Bin and Song Hye Kyo – just the reaction to that news dropping would be epic
I think I want Nam Ji Hyun with Ji Chang Wook, Kim Soo Hyun and Kang Ha Neul. She had a great chemistry with the 3 of them. The young couples were way better than the older ones.
Personaly, I preferd IU with Kang Ha Neul. In Stove League, there was no romance so it’s kinda weird they are on the list, Park Eun Bin with Kim Min Jae is a better couple . TKEM’s couple didn’t work for me.
Kim yoo jung and ji chang wook
Yoo jung and yeojingoo
Kimsohyun and yeojingoo
Nam ji hyun and ji chang wook
Yoonjung and park bogum
Kimsohyun and DO
Lee minho and jihyun
Kim soo hyun and iu
@Ana Yes, definitely Kim So Hyun & DO. I mean, I absolutely love Ji Soo, but I was hoping for DO as So Hyun’s male lead in her upcoming drama instead because he’s just so good in sageuk (100 Days My Prince), and he had great chemistry with So Hyun in Pure Love! But alas…
Hope they reunite in a more light-hearted drama someday!

lol No idea why my comment got doubled lmao
Nam Ji Hyun and Kim Soo Hyun is one of my dream OTP to be reunited again in future dramas. Somehow i want them in melo kind of dramas. Second is Nam Ji Hyun and Kang Ha Neul.
But, seeing that pic of Nam Ji Hyun and Ji Chang Wook, bring back those fluttering feelings from SP’s days. And I want them to be reunited again in an action drama with a dash of romance.
Would be nice for OTP reunion: Jo In Sung & Ha Ji Won; Lee Min Ho and Park Shin Hye
Omg! I’m with you with jo in sung and ha ji won! I want some redemption after I got traumatized with memories in bali!? And their chemistry is fire!
Lee Jongsuk and Park Shinhye! Pinocchio! I love so much.
Kim soo hyun a third collab with Jun ji hyun plss or Iu or Suzy or namji hyun
Nam Ji Hyun be reunited with Kim Soo Hyun or Kang Ha Neul in a romantic melodrama
Rooting for
Hyun Bin and Ha ji Won
Kim Soo Hyun and Jun Ji Hyun
Kang Ha Neul and Nam Ji Hyun
Kim Soo Hyun and Nam Ji Hyun
The automatic response from me is KSH-JJH and HB-HJW. But the number of people mentioning Nam Ji Hyun and Kim Soo Hyun just reminded me that they had great chemistry together 10 years ago. So that would be really good to see again. Ideally in a melo. I haven’t seen KSH in a melo yet I think.
(Can someone please cast them in an Autumn’s Concerto remake? I still don’t understand how this hasn’t been taken up yet lol…)
I actually really want to see Jang Geun Suk and Park Shin Hye together in another drama again! They had so much chemistry together in You’re Beautiful that I’m sad that we haven’t seen Jang Geun Suk in as much dramas recently.
Doctor John reunion Ji Sung and Lee Se Young.
Won Bin and Song Hye Kyo (my first SLS..I have not healed from this to this day…if it ever happens I don’t know what do with myself)
Park Shin Hye and Kim Woo Bin/Yoo Ah In (will never get over Choi young do unrequited love…I despise Heirs and KES for this)
Moon Chae Won & Song joon ki (I just love them together)
Ji Sung and Hwang Jung Eum ( I enjoy the chemistry only because can’t see Lee bo young and him acting together
Jung kyung ho and Hwang jung eum (not over my endless love heartbreak)
Kim Soo hyun and Nam ji hyun
Kim So hyun and Yook Sungjae/Jang Dong Yoon/Lee Do hyun
IU and Kim soo hyun/lee do hyun
Jun Jihyun and Jung Woo Sung/ Ha Jung Woo
Kim So Eun and Kim Bum….let me stop otherwise the list will be endless
Of course most of these didnt take place at SBS…but they are still castings I’d love to see…
@Ameera did Lee Do Hyun and Kim So Hyun already worked with each other? May I ask which drama? Thank you ☺️
Ironic that Scarlet Heart didn’t achieve high ratings during its airing, but people are still talking about it even after many years, even more than the supposedly domestic hits, and Lee Jun Ki & IU still remains to be one of KDrama’s iconic couples! lol
Anyway here’s my picks:
Kim So Hyun & Seo Kang Joon
Lee Jun Ki & IU
Kim Tae Hee & Joo Won
Ha Ji Won & Hyun Bin
Jo In Sung & Gong Hyo Jin
Jo In Sung & Song Hye Kyo
Ji Chang Wook & Nam Ji Hyun
For non-SBS dramas:
Kim So Hyun & Yoo Seung Ho
Kim So Hyun & Yook Sung Jae
Kim So Hyun & Kim Min Jae (come on, their scenes in Goblin are too short! Give us more! lol)
Kim So Hyun & DO
Kim So Hyun & Jang Dong Yoon
Kim So Hyun & Taecyeon
Lee Yo Won & Kim Nam Gil (literally my first KDrama OTP!)
Park Seo Joon & Kim Ji Won
Nam Joo Hyuk & Lee Sung Kyung
Park Hyung Sik & Park Bo Young
Park Min Young & Kim Jae Wook
Park Min Young & Yeon Woo Jin
Ji Sung & Hwang Jung Eum
Ha Ji Won & Ji Chang Wook
Song Joong Ki & Moon Chae Won
Ryu Jun Ryeol & Hyeri
Namgoong Min & Bang Minah
WOW there’s a lot of KSH in your list. She really is the Queen of Chemistry seeing how much you want her to reunite with her costars.
@Yepeu Yes indeed, I ship her to almost all her leading men! lol
She really lives up to that moniker (Chemistry Queen), doesn’t she? ?
*ship her with
Definitely Moon chae won and song joong ki, I was so obsessed with them in « nice guy ». The drama that I can’t forget. They broke my heart so many times, the perfect melodrama perfect everything.
Also, Ryu hwayoung and Woo do hwan. They had the sexiest chemistry despite not being a romance drama. They set the screen on fire whenever they had a scene together, the sexual tension was through the roof ! I hope they do a romance drama this time something like « nice guy » they would kill it.
My dream OTP 2nd time pairing again:
Nam Ji Hyun & Kim Soo Hyun – a heart wrenching melo with autumn/winter theme again
Nam Ji Hyun & Kang Ha Neul – he’s a struggling musician while she’s a lyricist, imagine the fun with KHN teaching her to play the guitar/piano for fun ala Music and Lyrics (Drew Barrymore and Hugh Grant, I’m old school rom-com addict)
Nam Ji Hyun & Seo In Guk – she playing a dedicated vet and him playing a dorky animal rescuer who opens an animal shelter/vet clinic together. Imagine SIG being chased by moths/bugs/insects while saving a drowning puppy in a swamp/lake somewhere. Cue happy ending with them becoming fur daddy & mommy with kittens and puppies as their kiddies. Cuteness overload.
Nam Ji Hyun & Park Hyun Sik -she’s a rich heiress while he’s a private detective with revenge on his mind. Their path crossed one day when mysterious circumstances throw them together.
Ha Ji Won & Hyun Bin – both playing bad ass kick ass assassins/spies/jewel thieves ala Mr & Mrs Smith. Imagine HJW swinging from the ceiling in tight cat-suit ala Sarah Walker in Chuck tv series from early mid 2000s.
Ha Ji Won & Jo In Sung – recreate their characters from the sexiest smouldering hot hair shampoo commercial they did ages ago.
Future imagined OTP pairing:
IU & SIG – should compose and sing a mega hit duet together – any genre would do
Park Min Young & SIG – just wanna see if they could recreate those Isenberg chemistry and walking up the red carpet at 2014 KBS Awards.
