* More details at Dramabeans [Lee Seung-gi and Suzy cast in fantasy sageuk]
OMFG! I’m going to try my bestest not to say much until more details are finalized and official. BUT, one thing’s for sure… Actor Lee Seunggi is officially confirmed to make his drama comeback early next year! I hate that he doesn’t do multiple dramas in a given year, but I like that he carefully considers his projects. Nervously excited…
The drama is said to be a sageuk, but not traditional style genre. I’m a little weirded out by the the description tagline posted on Naver… really?! a male gumiho?! Hm, how do I feel about that? Maybe my Korean-English translation is off??? But his character is reportedly half human, half non-human, and will be new and refreshing. And did I read somewhere, supposedly, also a doctor?! *swoons* I think the working title may be a play on words of some sort…
Some fansites suggest that the central relationship in the drama is more Seunggi’s character and the father, rather than his relationship with a female love interest. So, the actor playing the father would be important. Seunggi has a proven record of chemistry with female actresses so I’m not too worried about the final choice. But it is a pretty topnotch list~~~ Ha Jiwon, Shin Minah, Han Hyojoo, Moon Chaewon!
More importantly, the PD (Shin Woo Chul) and Writer (Kang Eun Kyung) have a proven track record. Their portfolio of drama projects is pretty impressive. Check it out…
Hm, did Seunggi already sign on to this drama (in his usual stealth way!) when A Gentleman’s Dignity was filming and they used ‘Will you marry me?’ in the key proposal scene in the last episode?!
And there were some serious rumors that Seunggi was going to do ‘Man of Honor’ (but I’m so glad he didn’t!) There were rumors that Kang Eun Kyung was writing a new sageuk drama and early rumors that Seunggi was planning to take part. And well, turns out to have been true!
As for all the press speculation about Suzy (from Miss A) joining the project…
Miss A is super talented and Suzy has a really natural pretty look. I know less about her acting, but she seemed to do feisty female well in the one clip I watched of Big. Seunggi has great chemistry with all his partners (girls and guys!) so no worries.
I’ll take Seunggi’s cue and wait for things to be finalized! I’m SOOOOO excited!

OMG a lot of the writer’s previous works are my favorite Kim Tak Goo, Dal Ja’s spring, Hotelier, Glass Slippers,..It would be awesome if SeungGi’s role is a half-human doctor! Will it be the 1st time in K-dramaland?
Just as excited as you are! The most assuring thing I heard was that he has been in talks with the writer for months. So, supposedly this time he has a firmer hold on the final script! Just keep my fingers crossed! I only saw Dalja’s Spring but that’s not my cup of tea…Oh, dear, here we go again. My nerves…
AAAAA, I can’t wait!!!!! Actor Seung Gi ah~~~ please come back!
Hope for the best for him.
And you give me the ‘pssst’ picture from the 2011 Calendar, which is super perfect!! *dies happily
i thought the previous rumoured drama “sword and blossom” storyline was captivating.still no actual synopsis of this one.knowing seunggi,trusting that storyline will be spectacular considering he previously acted in a gumiho drama…plz make it happen.anyways as long as seunggi is in the drama it’s worth watching it…..
I always waiting for u
sound really interesting cant wait of his new drama !! :D
