Lee Sang-yoon and Gu Hye-sun up for Angel Eyes
by javabeans
javabeans: So remember when the SBS drama Angel Eyes wanted to cast Lee Jun-ki and Han Ji-min and we were all excited and interested?
girlfriday: YES.
javabeans: Well life needs an undo button because they’re out—and now it’s Lee Sang-yoon (Goddess of Fire Jung-yi) and Gu Hye-sun (Take Care of Us, Captain).
girlfriday: NO. Whoops, sorry, did I say that out loud?
javabeans: Only in unison with about a thousand of the rest of us. They’re not finalized-finalized, but it sounds like they’re pretty close to finalized, which finalizes MY decision not to watch it.
girlfriday: You know, I wasn’t really keen on the super-duper melo plot anyway, so…
javabeans: You mean the blindness and the eye donation and the long-lost first lovers being reunited after she regains her sight and becomes a rescue worker?
girlfriday: And how her father killed his mother, making their love doomed?
javabeans: But I was willing to hang in there for the PD of Will It Snow For Christmas, which took a convoluted tragic-melo plotline and did something sweet and sensitive with it…
girlfriday: I’ll be honest, I was mostly in it for Lee Jun-ki.
javabeans: Yes. Of course. It was mostly him. But now the bigger point seems to be not the PD’s creds but the writer’s, since, well, Boys Before Flowers. It explains a lot, really.
girlfriday: Well, one less drama to worry about. Maybe Lee Jun-ki can go join the My Girl Reunion Party instead.
javabeans: OMG yes. Oh wait omg no. I didn’t love Lee Jun-ki in My Girl (so persistent! So dramatic! So in need of a clue!) but I adore him now, so that would just hurt too much. And we can’t have that. Although honestly, a My Girl reunion party sounds legit awesome, even with subsequent pain issues…
girlfriday: ANYWAYYYYYYYY….
javabeans: Right. Sorry. I can’t be trusted in any matters pertaining to My Girl, apparently. Back to Angel Eyes… Not to deter everyone else out there who is inexplicably and unreasonably happy about any of this news, of course. If that’s you, well, y’all can catch Angel Eyes in April when it replaces Thrice Married Woman.
girlfriday: All two of you.

Hello there! Why are people demeaning GHS? What you know about her? And please stop posting bad comments about her.If you are really interested in talking about GHS, 1st watch all of her dramas and say. Because of ratings going down, it doesn't mean that its because of her acting! See if you dont like a person either you stay out of her or else give her a chance (according to you) ..Comments like yours will make her and her fans hurt! If you dont like her stay away. Coming here and commenting shows how low you are !! There are 100s of actresses in korean entertainment! Why do you people come here when the topic "Goo hye sun" comes? You are making comments in such a way that you will close her acting career! But she is not a lady who is afraid of you haters! If 1 million of you are hating her! Another 1 million are waiting to see her in a drama..Its each and everyone's taste and interest. So please act as humans!!

do not waste your time for these kind of people who do not know what respect is. They only wants to get some attention from people of their kind MONSTERS. They are blinds who can't see good people, they only see themselves mocking and making fool of other people.

Hey this is awkward new casting news. Why? Because GHS is Nam Sang Mi's best friend from the entertainment industry and LSY was NSM's ex bf...
But since NSM was able to have sparks with Kim Ji Hoon in Goddess of Marriage, a rumoured ex flame of GHS, I guess it is fair and square for LSY and GHS to act as a couple on screen.
I just can't help but feel awkward about it. Bleah. It is my problem I guess...

It's unfortunate javabeans and girlfriday that you use your blog to put down Goo Hye Sun. What a shame that you use your bias against her to attract your ilk to make fun of her. Shame, Shame, Shame.
I wonder if both of you know the difference between good and bad acting because GHS won an acting award for Boys Over Flowers and she was chosen by Group Eight as the one to give justice to Jandi over the other Korean actresses and she did a fantastic job. Aside from that she was best newcomer in King and I and best actress in Pure 19. So all these people are wrong and you are right.
It was her facial expression and feisty personality that gave life to Jandi. I love her the moment she tried to negotiate with the student who wanted to jump to his death by trying to inject humour in a very serious situation as she cajoled him to get off the ledge. Her facial expressions in that scene were priceless. She reminded me of Kim Sun Ah who was brilliant in Samsoon. Boys Over Flowers had been repeatedly shown in various countries. An amazing feat considering that it ended five years ago.
In Netflix alone, the rating of BOF is almost perfect with 4.4 stars from more than 175,000 comments. Not surprising considering that it's one of the highest rated Korean drama. That's why it never fails to amuse me when people like you crawl out of the woodwork to put GHS down. Without her, BOF would just be an ordinary run-of-the-mill drama because she was in 80% of the film.
Oh did I tell you she's also an best selling author, director, painter, composer and singer? I wonder if anyone of these people criticizing her have achieved her success. She's one of the most intelligent actresses in Korean Entertainment. Just read her interviews and you'll know what I mean.
You and your ilk are the minority because there are millions who love GHS. Just check her Facebook page.
And….I don't give a rat's ass if you don't recap her drama. There will be other blogs and websites who would. So don't think you're the "be all" and "end all". Your arrogance may just be your undoing.

Negative people will always have something negative to say. That's the way it is in their world. You give them a rose, they only see the thorns. Rather than seeing what is good , they always choose to see the bad, the shortcomings and make a big deal out of it. It is a good thing this is only a blog, so you can always choose not to patronize it. How low it is for these host writers to make fun of other people so they can feel better about themselves and believe they are so intelligent and special? And their other gullible readers also join the bandwagon of negativity. As for us strong Ku Hye sun fans, let's stay in the positive pole. After all KU HYE SUN is a great inspiration that shows us how to smile and move onward with life....the rest is just noise.

No matter what you all have said, I am looking forward to this drama after GHS is cast. For me the story summary sounds so ordinary but i hope i will be surprised later. I love GHS in BOF, her acting is comical type and that fits Jandi character.
I am also not a fan of Musical and Please Captain because the story is terrible boring.
I see that lately GHS is changing. She lengthen her hair again and even joined Running Man to promote Angel Eyes. It's something that really surprised me considering her character. I think her last appearance on variety show is X-man.
With her experience in direction movies, she must have learned what kind of angles and expression that may suits the occasions. I expect this will affect her acting too. Only one thing i am worry: the way she laughs. People may think it's exaggerate but from what i observed, it's just the natural of GHS and she doesn't fake it.

I want to add that it's so rude to post your dialog here just because your favorite actress/actor is not cast on this drama. You and your friend have the rights to do the conversation but why do you need to write it here?
It's obvious that you might think that it's a good joke to make fun LSY & GHS.
When you don't like something then just leave it.
