Cain & Abel begins filming
by javabeans
So Ji-sub has a pretty distinctive face, but he’s still rather disguised in these new stills from his upcoming drama Cain & Abel.
Shooting started for the drama at a Seoul hospital on November 16, which is aiming for a February 2009 premiere. The 20-episode drama co-stars Shin Hyun-joong (Stairway to Heaven), Chae Jung-ahn (Coffee Prince), and Han Ji-min (Yi San). In the drama, So and Shin play doctors and brothers and get caught between two women (of course).
Director Kim Hyung-shik is no stranger to medical dramas, having produced the popular Grey’s Anatomy-esque 2007 drama Surgeon Bong Dal-hee. He explains that this is no mere medical drama, but also deals with the brothers’ “intertwining fates and loves.” So far, pretty standard stuff, although with this cast, we can hope the end product is more fresh and innovative than its description.
Cain & Abel was to be So’s first project out of the army, but due to repeated delays, his television comeback has come after four years (since 2004’s I’m Sorry, I Love You) rather than the intended two.

Finally, So Ji-sub!
After a long time.
I have felt a lot his absence, because he is an actor by the tumultuous silences and withholdings words.
About his new drama, the plot seems fairly conventional and obvious as ideas, but if Shin Hyun-joong has chosen to act in this production, something interesting in the script could be worthy of attention.
Three months for a response.

Finally, after 4 LONG years - he's back for good. Can't wait!!!
(not to mention, I love the girls in this one..=P)
SJS definitely has not lost his touch in acting. Just saw his movie Rough Cut with KJH 2 days ago, and his performance as Kang Pae still lingers in my mind. So mysterious and cool, yet does not lack the strong presence on screen. (In contrast KJH's character was more brash and insensitive, hehehe..BUT both of them were totally LOOOVEEE for me!) - Am waiting to be blown away once again, after MISA~~

At last this drama started to film. With the worldwide financial crisis I was afraid
SBS just might delay it again...
The story of MISA is conventional but it's the acting of SJS and ISJ making it so
unconventionally good! Really looking forward to seeing him on tv after 4 long
years of waiting.
And hope SJS will win the Blue Dragon Best New Actor Award for his extraordinary
performance as Gang Pae in Rough Cut.

maybe someone here can shed some light on C&A -- i thought this was already filmed in San Francisco last year & was just waiting for its final stages? also what happened now to one of my favorites Ji Jin Hee? he's supposed to be the brother of SJS in this drama? I'm really baffled with the way it's going that it's now start its filming? please if you can respond to my queries i'd appreciate it! i'd been wanting & looking forward to seeing this drama & much to my surprise reading this indicates it's just starting to be filmed? I'm really not clear! Thanks!

respond to sang hee --
during the delay of C&A, the storyline/writer and the rest of the cast have changed.
In the new story, SJS is a surgeon, not a hitman, what a change! ^^

"but also deals with the brothers’ “intertwining fates and loves.”
Hello Medicine Brothers! With the General Hospital sequel and apparently a remake of the JDG/LYA medisoap, we need to get a SES and HOT reunion too. Party like it's 1999 people.
I really like this cast (3 Scorpios in the cast too, that's a lot of brooding!), and I really liked Surgeon Bong Dal-Hee. I just wished the story would aim a little higher.

i appreciate it! SJS is one of my favorite K-actors & so is Ji Jin Hee who was in the original cast -- i'm sorry though that JJH won't be a part of this drama!
