OCN Supernatural Thriller Hand: The Guest Confirms Cast of Kim Jae Wook, Kim Dong Wook, and Jung Eun Chae
The drama with one of the worst sounding titles is off to start with one of the best casts around, insofar as it makes for somewhat of a Coffee Prince reunion. OCN religious and supernatural themed police thriller Hand: The Guest will star Kim Dong Wook and Kim Jae Wook as a psychic and a priest, respectively, like two cute coffee princes grew up and got weird jobs. They join together in doing demon expulsions and exorcisms along with female lead Jung Eun Chae playing a detective forced to accept the supernatural in the commission of crimes. Rounding out the cast is Park Ho San coming off the hit drama My Ahjusshi. The drama will be the first OCN drama to air in the Wed-Thurs time slot and will be directed by the PD of Black, Voice, and Liar Game.
agree with koala about the title. it sounds funny and sort of weird?the synopsis & the characters’ description too didn’t give any hint why the drama is called ‘hand’. just ‘the guest’ would be better tbh.
not really related, but i miss those days when ocn dramas used to have fewer episodes (e.g. coma which has only 5 ep or missing noir m with 10 ep). not matter how interesting a drama is, 16 hours is always too long for me ?
I like the quirky title. Reminded me of “Thing” in The Addams Family. Am happy that Kim Jae Wook finally netted a leading role. It’s long overdue.
@Alexa OMG I was thinking of ‘Thing’ too. However for this drama they need to change the title. I have successfully converted a workmate into watching K dramas on Netflix and everyday she tells me about ‘Prison Playbook’ and the latest ep so the title is a talking point and Im dreading the day when I have to tell her ‘Hey check out Hand; The Guest’ yeah a real conversation stopper.
Oh but I’m so down for this though! Kim Jae Wook and Jung Eun Chae yayyyurrr! ? Loving the synopsis and character descriptions so far and that it’s on OCN.
Lol. But it would be great to have others curious over the quirky sounding subjects you guys talked about.
Yay! Looking forward to this one.
Love all the three leading actors and Park Ho San!
I kind of get the “hand” in the title because both the shaman and the priest use their hands in their exorcising routine, whether holding bells or cross, spraying red beans or holy water. But it does sound puzzling coupled with “the guest”. Well maybe it’s a way to audiences curioser and thus incite them to watch the drama.
Sounds too good. It’s been awhile since the last time I watched Jung Eun Chae in Dr. Frost. Can’t wait to see her with Kim Jae Wook in this new drama. ?????
