• Park Sung Hoon as a romantic lead? I am not sure if I can trust him! 🤣🤣

  • Is he not good at that? I know nothing about him except for a forgettable impression from Queen of Tears. LOL.

    • Ha ha I have only seen him in villain roles, with the highlight being in The Glory. But he's a good actor so I bet he can pull it of.

• This is SUCH A CUTE casting! I loooooveee!! Yoona has improved so much over the years and I am so happy to see PSH as a rom-com lead. Its about time and I can't wait for him to break out as a lead.

  Also, its not just the pairing, but I love a fun romance sageuk with an amazing PD. EXCITED!

  • P.s. Yes I am aware PSH already led a rom-com. But not one that's truly hyped which this one will undoubtedly be. Not sure about ratings (no one can ever be), but this drama will definitely have the fans talking.

• The plot sounds fun, plus PD from YFAS. I'll check. Please keep us posted. Thanks.

• Finally! I wasn't so exited about the plot, but this is Park Sung Hoon as a main lead, so I will watch it.

• He was okay in into the ring but in queen of tears he was so stereotypically bland. Then again he was a little bland for both don’t know if it’s his blank expressions or droll way of speaking? Or the characters he chooses to play?

• Gosh please Yoona. You have terrible luck with leading man... thankfully, they compensated their lack with their immense popularity. But Park Sung Hoon? He is so dull in queen o tears

  • Wait, what? What's wrong with Lee Junho?

    • Nah I love lee jun hoo in others drama, but not in King The Land, one of his performances for me. His lackluster performances is distracting. The actor Who become Her bad ex boyfriend has more heart in acting than him.

    • It's the same commenter who thinks Jisoo from Blackpink and Ahn Yeo Seop are good actors, so I wouldn't place too much value on her very... interesting opinions lol

    • Coquette: I'm sorry If my opinion is not mainstream enough to some people here. Hyeo seop (the main protagonist in novel) and Jiso star in big budget movie, and Jiso star alongside Park Jung Min and in a non traffic project. That's saying alot right. Some director trust them.

  • What?? On the contrary she has been veeeryyy fortunate with her male costars. Lee Junho, Lee Jongsuk, Ji Changwook, Jo Jungsuk, just to name a few. It is Yoona who's actually very lacking until recently where she kinda improved but nowhere near the level to be called a good actress

    • @chooco: nah... not gonna disagree when you thing Yoona is lucky to pair with them based on their reputation.

  • lol at your whole attitude

• Park Sung hoon is bland but these same commenters are all praises to Byun Wooseok and hailing lim as a bonafide A-list actor (not even saying he is a rising start but already an instant A-list with a 4% ratings?)????

  • lol aren't you being a little dramatic? there was like one person in the other post that called BWS a bonafide A list and it was more around the shock of him being able to land a role next to IU. there's a few people with negative/neutral comments about PHS but most others are positive. PSH is no doubt a much much better actor than BWS. they're not even in the same league honetsly.

• Wow, it was only a while ago when a lot of us here were commenting that we want to see Park Sung Hoon as a male lead in a big drama, and here we are! So happy about this news, he deserves this very much! Some comments here are saying he was “bland” in QoT, but I think his character just wasn't written well. Even good actors can look bland in certain roles if those roles are not written-well (i.e. Yeo Jin Goo in Hotel del Luna, Lee Do Hyun in The Glory, etc.)

  Yoona is serviceable too, so I have no complaints. And the plot sounds fun! Definitely will be seated for this. Hope it will be on Netflix!

  I have to say tho, that PSH's agency seems good at securing projects for him. He was in The Glory, and then QoT, and then Squid Game 2, and now this. The first three I mentioned have been huge productions, and this one seems like it would be a big-budget drama too. Good for him!

  • He is with one of the biggest agency, BH Entertainment. They are very, very good at managing their artist's careers and getting them into good projects.

• Wow, I like the premise and can see this packed with hijinks and hilarity. Sadly, I’m not a fan of Yoona’s acting. Such a shame, because dramas involving food & cooking are so up my alley.

• But why is the plot so similar to Mr. Queen tho? Aren't the production afraid of the comparisons which will obviously be brought up during promotion? I mean like why chef again of all professions?

  • In Mr. Queen chef profession was a side plot, and main lead was a queen, in that drama chef profession is a main plot.
