Jung Il-woo replaces Joo-won in fantasy sageuk drama

javabeans: Oh holy WHAAAAATTTTT now? Jung Il-woo is replacing Joo-won in Moonsunraincloud.

girlfriday: WUT?

javabeans: Okay okay, that fantasy-sageuk romance The Moon That Embraces the Sun or whatever. You know, Moonrainbowhippiemountain.

girlfriday: Am suddenly very interested in joining this hippie commune.

javabeans: Apparently Joo-won just can’t manage to juggle it with Ojakkyo Brothers. So Jung Il-woo is now playing the older brother to Kim Soo-hyun. Eeep, who to root for now?

girlfriday: Oh I’m Jung Il-woo all the way!

javabeans: But Kim Soo-hyun is the king! And the lead!

girlfriday: But Jung Il-woo is hotter!

javabeans: Hmm, I dunno about that. They have different kinds of hotnesses. Kim Soo-hyun is more straight-up intense and introverted. He smolders like nobody’s business.

girlfriday: Ok, fine, hotter to ME!

javabeans: On the other hand, Jung Il-woo plays his hyung who purposely acts like a frivolous playboy because he doesn’t want people to back him politically and endanger his dongseng.

girlfriday: Or… he’s just a frivolous playboy?

javabeans: Ha. He’s using that cover as a cover for his cover?

girlfriday: Works for everyone.

javabeans: The thing is, Jung Il-woo is amazingly good at the show-two-sides double-identity sort of thing. Like the spoiled manchild who also feels (for the first time ever, maybe). Or the commoner by day, the masked avenger by night.

girlfriday: I STILL swoon at the memory of him as Iljimae.

javabeans: Omg. The mane of glory….

girlfriday: *GASP* Best mane of glory ever!

javabeans: He’s the OG, yo.

girlfriday: Long live the pedigree of the glorious mane of glory.

I don't think he's good-looking either, but I'm drawn to his acting somehow. Got me hooked when he played Scheduler... and he's crazy funny on Ramyun Shop.

yup, me too. He is cute but he is not exactly the hottest guy around. And anyway, acting skills is way more important than having a pretty face (at least to me).

Well, HE IS good looking, but there are a lot good looking actors aout there. But most importantly besides his pretty face he possesses charisma. He's oozing with charisma - or at least the characters he's playing are. And that's why he's such a great a popular actor.

JIW is very sensual. He is very aware of how he moves his face, eyes, hands *sigh* to the best advantage.

I could see him play a Casanova or Don Juan because of the way he approaches the women he plays opposite.

I understand if people don't see him as handsome, or even cute, but damn if he couldn't charm the sokchima off a yangban.

LOL, I couldn't put in better. Well some people may not find him good looking, but the boy knows how to make moves. I can't put finger on it, but there's something in him that makes my knees weak :)

his pics alone don't do him justice...it's his voice, the way he looks at a woman and the way his hands wrap around the face/head of the actress he is kissing , swoons!!!!

I AM SO WATCHING THIS!

Too much smoldering hotness in one drama. I'm still a little disappointed in Han Ga In. I want to like her, but she always falls slightly flat for me. No way am I missing the boys, though!

Bring back the sexy Return of Iljimae JIW, add a little Gu Yong Ha, and I'm all in.

am I the only one not that happy with the news , not that I don't like JIW ( I even love him very much ) but I was exited to see JooWon in another drama becoz for the time being I'm in love with uri Tae Hui but I think it's better like that so we can see him most of the time on OB or else his scenes will be reduced
anyway I'm on for this drama too :)))

Iljimae? again? YYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!
I died.
and went to mane of glory heaven.
I hope his playboy exterior is slightly Gu Yonga-esque.
But he'll do it in his hot Jung Il Woo way.
Who to root for?
They are both such incredible actors. So intense and heart-wrenching. AND THEY ARE BROTHERS.
Ack.
I am more inclined toward JIW but who can resist some KSH?

Ha! The mane of glory was my first thought too! I'm just sad it will probably be extensions as the first episode airs next month and I don't think that's time enough for JIW to grow out his Chi Soo hair. Let's just hope the prince doesn't have a sageuk 'stache!

Aww, I kind of really wanted Joo Won for this role!

Am I the only who feels like Jung Il Woo has been a little overexposed this year? I think he should get some rest.

Aww, i want Joo won!

i'm loving him in Ojakgyo Brothers now. JIW's overacting in FBRS kinda put me off from that drama.

anyway, Joo won or JIW, the one i'm excited the most is KIM SOO HYUN anyway! its been sooooo long, cant wait to have him back on my screen!

i just wish the lady is not HGI, sigh.

All that pretty is going to crack my computer screen, lol.

I like Jung Il-Woo as an actor, but I definitely prefer Kim Soo-hyun's brand of hotness, so no conflict of interest for me here. As long as I don't have to see uri Samdong make sad puppy eyes the whole way through, I'll be good :D

Also, is Han Ga-in really that bad?

I'm onboard with the epicness of the two...but Han Ga In's acting is forever clouded by Witch Amusement and I can't even imagine her acting with them..*sigh*

Oh man, you guys are hilarious. I think they're both kind of pretty boy-ish, and also really close to the same age, so I am not sure how believable the "hyung" thing will be.

Still, two hot guys who can also act like nobody's business? Everyone wins.

NO WAAYYY ~ ~ !!! O_O There is no way that Jung Il Woo REPLACES Joo Won ~ ~ ~ Gooodness......(looks around w/ blinks)

I admire Kim Soo Hyun from Dream High ~ he's really awesome! I think it would be great for both of them to work together with Ha Ga In (I am not really fan of her, oh well...)

Hwaiting ~~! ! ;)

Me: Wait, this plot sounds familiar - prince pretending to to a good for nothing playboy and outwitting the enemies.

Myself: This sounds like the plot from Gye Baek.

I: Hey, both series are from MBC. I guess it's okay to rehash the plot and take the audience to be fools.

So conflicted. I was really looking forward to seeing Joo Won, so when I realized it'd be impossible (all the better for his health), I was sad. But then....

Its JIW. XD Him as the replacement makes me happy and I've really been wanting to see Kim Soo Hyun again.

Does anybody still remembers how incredible hot and pretty he looked at the same time as Iljimae? He captivated my heart from the first moment I saw him onscreen. I kinda think sageuk hairstyle suits him better. Gonna refresh mym memory with Return of Iljimae.

Glad Joo Won drops this drama.. I think he want to concentrate on Ojakgyo Brothers.. The show gets 30% ++ viewer ratings. Damn, he's good in choosing his work, last time with Baker King Kim Tak Gu its a HIT too.. I'm glad that he is wise to choose a drama, he's a one good talented actor..

But above all, glad to see my dear Kim Soo Hyun back to the small screen... Bring it on Soo Hyun.. I love you.

Btw, this show will be much better if Moon Geun Young in it.. Imagine Kim Soo Hyun and Moon Geun Young together.. Daebak!
