I love how some K-netizen comments on this casting are that he should be doing a KBS drama next, lol totally my thought that he should go for the Triple Crown. K-actor Namgoong Min is absolutely an A-lister in South Korean drama land and has his pick of whatever script he wants at this point. He won the SBS Daesang in 2020 for Stove League and the MBC Daesang in 2021 for The Veil (Black Sun), and for his next project he’s likely going back to SBS for the legal drama 1000 Won Lawyer. 2022 will have many many legal dramas so I’m not sure why he’s picking one as well but this script won the 2015 SBS internal script competition so it’s got some hype around it. The drama is about a great lawyer who is quirky and only charges a 1000 won fee for his services.
The Veil’s script also won a screenplay contest yet looked how that turned out…
* look
So SBS is really planning to pit KNG v NGM v KRW v LJG for Daesang? If GY signs on for the KEH drama and it airs in 2022 then add him to the list too. Everyone will tune in for the year end awards of SBS if that happens. This is the only public channel that managed to bring back the big celebs to terrestrial tv. Imagine if LMH and his new drama are on SBS too. Woah.

Yep. I also want him to go to KBS this 2022 for the triple crown.
another lawyer drama? there are way too many dramas about lawyers this year, so tired of this.
And I wish if there is female lead, it is offered to Lee Se Young. Hahaha..
I love quirky Namgoong Min ?
NGM is the best when he can be charming :p The Veil was disapointing, Awaken’s role was way more interesting.
the veil was so good until ep 4 and then it went down to hill. barely manage to finish the whole show just because NGM is so good in it.
The Viel was disappointing and his performance was average. How did he win Daesang? It baffles me.
I was ecstatic for him winning the Daesang for Stove League but for The Viel? ?
But he was the only reason to watch the drama, he carried it alone. I think he deserved it.
The drama itself was disapointing and I prefer seeing him charming than very serious, but he was very good in this role.
