K-drama to Adapt Hit TW-drama Someday or One Day and K-netizens Want Male Lead to be Either Park Seo Joon or Lee Jong Seok

• this is my first ever Taiwanese drama and the most special drama overall that I've ever watched in my 10 years ++ of drama watching (99% kdramas).
  Please please please please please do the original justice with casting, writing and directing!
  This is such a wonderful drama!

• I guess I am one of the few who dislike this drama. Watched it because it was super popular back then but found the pace too slow and boring and didn't manage to finish it. The premise is interesting and I am hopeful that I will get to watch the K-remake that will eventually resonate with me.

  • I liked it but the pacing was a huge issue for me. Honestly, it could be done better but a Korean adaptation could go either way.

• I've not watched it. Does it have a high school counterpart? Do the leads play both versions? If it's like that I don't think they're fit to play them...they don't look old at all, but I've watched them in many mature roles already.

  • In the original version, yes, she played both the teenager and adult role.

• I find it a sad reflection of the state of K Dramas when a Drama that was (by the writer's own clear statements) specifically and explicitly written for the FEMALE lead is considered for a remake and the focus is on who the MALE lead should be. That kind of fundamental shift of attention does not bode well for the integrity of the remake.

  Since it was conceived and written with Ko Chia Yen in mind, it would have been much promising if the remake prioritized finding the ideal equivalent for HER role.

  • Well technically it's the K-netizens who want the aforementioned actors to be cast as Li Ziwei/Wang Quansheng.

  • Ooooh yes. Your comment is the only one that makes sense here. Bless you.

    After reading the comments here and other social forums, this remake will be a mess if the focus is on the male lead.

• Park Seo Joon and Patrick Shih do look similar lol.

• I've heard a lot about this drama. I only have one reservations, does the drama revolves around a love triangle?

  • Even if the second male lead has one-sided feelings for the female lead, it doesn't really affect the plot in my opinion. The plot is more about solving the death of the female lead's doppelgänger in the 90s.

• Both are too old to play the young part of the role. I'm more curious about the FL.

• Song Kang or Lee Do hyun for Greg Hsu's Role ? But K drama is such a failure in Time wrapping themed drama in recent years. Pray this will break the spell.
  Greg Hsu is eye candy ?

  • Yeah I was also thinking that Lee Dohyun should play the role because he has the boyishness and the maturity to portray the main male character in both timelines.

• That drama is awesome. Seo Kang Joon would be perfect as male lead. My only hope is that the k version doesn't focus on unrealistic cinematography and product placement, and most of all, doesn't add k dramas' typical society-centric discrimination plot. Because if they do, they'll run a wonderful story/drama.

• I think both PSJ or LJS would not go for this remake.
  I personally want Lee Jae Wook as the male lead, who is very young and talented enough to pull this off.
  How bout Alice Ke's role? The actress needs to be very good at acting for this. I can't think of anyone for her character.
