Yay for this! It's about time for him to shine as a true lead...hope he confirms :)

Yeo Jin-gu is an amazing young talent. I''ve been saying that the only reason he is not taking a lead role yet is because of his age.

Haven't seen any of his dramas.....but I guess he is a good actor after reading so many good reviews about him..

I will watch absolutely anything this boy is in.

:)

I'm happy for him and I hope he does this :) I just rewatched Sad Movie and was pleasantly surprised to find out that Yeo Jin-gu played Yeom Jung-ah's son! Haha he was really cute and was amazing, as usual :)

Bless him, he sure has a lot of talent....i suspect he will go far

damn...kids grow up fast, i'm getting teary
glad for the offer, but i think his starring debut needs to be for an exceptional project, the guy deserves nothing less

Just yesterday i was basically screaming for him to lead anything already, and then he is (about to)? Aw, so proud.

Lub him. <3 I'm glad he's going to be the lead.

I'm just so happy to see that the sweet little boy in "Sad Movie," from what seems like many years ago, is growing up to be an actor with immense potential. I feel like a proud mama lol

The kid can do the role. He's one of those born to act and I hope he begins to challenge his talent/stretch himself.

It's not everyday that a child star can transition so well to the next stage of their acting careers. The last few young actors who were able to pull that off were Jang Geunsuk (pre-Hallyu fame) and Yoo Seungho.

I'm excited to see Yeo Jingu grow up and improve even more as an actor. :)

I love this kid he's a great child actor wish him the best :)

my little boy has grown
*wipes proud tears*

aish, as much as I love him (and God knows how much I adore him!! my beloved devil-may-care little Gangmo-ya!!), this news have me feeling nervous. although I love him in moon sun, i think since moonsun he just overdid himself. I just scared that he'd destroy himself in the premature fame & pressure.
please, please, jin gu ya, please consider your project very carefully. only if the project make a good for your growth as an actor, should you accept it. dont rush things, please take your time and mature your acting naturally to reach your fullest potential. hollywood has lost too many great potential teens actor, who cant survive because they rushed things. you got so much on your pocket kid, dont destroy that.

OMG!!!
I'm so happy for him!!! And he deserves it!!!!
I'm sorry to say, but in my opinion he outshined Kim Soo Hyun. Moon and Sun was amazing coz of the child actors that they were the only episodes I replayed.
Someone mention JGS, I'm not hating, but he seriously only got famous coz of his looks. His acting is so-so. Jin Goo and Seung Ho, and not to forget Lee Hyun Woo all have so much potential. And of course Kim Yoo Jung!

kid is doing well, good for him~

Finally, it's his time to shine. I've always thought he outshone his adult counterpart in the Sun/Moon. ^^ Looking forward to more of his projects.

good for him.

Yayy! I really love these youngins! I hope all of them become amazing adult actors with their own leading roles! I'm waiting for the day when he and KYJ star as adult leads together :D

They so outshined their adult counterparts in Moon & Sun. The only one that was great despite the absolute boringness of the thing was Kim Soo Hyun. It very simple, first 6 episodes : you think Moon&Sun is the future best drama ever. after the 7, you just can't believe it's the same drama... and at the episode 19, you're really wondering if you're gonna continue the torture until the end or stop before it's too late.
They were incredible in it, I really feel they earned their new fame.
But Yeo Jin Gu and Kim Yoo Jun are gold. This guy is SO expressive, he is like my next Yoo Seung Ho ^^ Seriously, wa have these last years new really great actors but he is a new kind because he is SO young !

I hope he'll accept. I already regret the parting in I Miss You, and it the first time since Will It Snow for Christmas? with a teen Kim Soo Hyun, and Moon&Sun ...

Hopefully, if he takes the role, it'll let him grow and expand more as an actor. Kim Yoon-seok (I lub you!) is awesome and seems to be churning out hits after hits, so if Yeo accepts, he'll at least be expanding his networks and working with a fantastic senior. Plus, if Jo Jin-woong (so amazing) says yes, then the cast sounds pretty awesome.

!!!!!!!!!!!! <3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

go for it! im sure he will do well!

He is truly gifted. I think it's going to be obvious to all of us that in 10 years time he's going to be the actor of our generation along with Yoo Seung Ho.
But as of now, I'm just loving how he's all these dramas he's being paired up with co-stars he's already worked with. Hopefully they all become a close-knit powerhouse in the future.
But he should take this role, while he's so young he should absorb all the experience from his sunbaes.

Yeo Jing Gu can totally weep and cry and make the audience feel for him. But in other scenes which doesn't require him to cry, I feel like he doesn't quite grab your attention or emote as well as the praises he's getting. But he's young and he's got lots of years more to learn.

Also, director Jang Joon Hwan is amazing in his own right and gained alot of favorable reviews for Save the Green Planet but he does miss the mark in his directing sometimes. Eg. Camelia (omnibus film).

Anyhow, starring alongside Kim Yoon Seok is a marvelous opportunity by itself so yeah, this is a good chance for YJG to learn from his sunbae and shine. And i'm always up for a thriller/revenge film!

As much as I like this child actor and his ability to emote, I hope his studies will not suffer. If he takes up this offer, when will he have time for school?

Ooo! Gosh, I really like him since I first saw him in Giant drama. He did a good job in "I Miss You" drama & I will definitely looking forward to this because of him! I really hope that he will make a wise decision and choose an good movies and dramas very carefully.

I hope that he will definitely confirm this movie, of course. ;)

Oh, my beautiful sun-in-low <3

oh what a cutie! i'm not surprised by the offer of a starring role - i mean, the kid can really act! there's nothing more disappointing than anticipating an actor's performance and getting something mediocre (ahem, im talking to you, idol singers turned actors). anywayers, i hope it takes it!

You can watch Yeo Jing Gu and Kim Soo Hyun in Giant together as brothers during the childhood part ep1-?, and they are BOTH GREAT, but Yeo Jing Gu is just pure awesomeness, that is where I fell for this little boy.

Yeo Jin Gu's voice = eargasm♥
He really sounds twenty-ish! So manly.
I'm totally in pedo mode ever since I watched this kid in Missing You

Yeo Jin Gu (gulp. 1997??) is very expressive, and has good potential. Heck, I was planning on avoiding I Miss You from all the melodrama until I jumped into episode 2 from curiosity. I ended up watching just for the kids. I love the adult leads but this is one drama I want to set aside, as I'm not feeling tragedy at the moment.

ya~ yeo jin gu we all support you! be nice and kind actor ok! :D

he is ridiculously good, in any role he takes. and i agree, i almost miss him in the drama when it leads into the older actors taking over. such a fresh young face. i think of the next lee seung gi type of guy next door that everyones gonna love when he gets a bit older
