Noh Min-woo joins Park Shi-yeon in Greatest Marriage
by girlfriday
Cable network TV Chosun’s fall drama Greatest Marriage has confirmed its leading lady in Park Shi-yeon (Nice Guy), who will be playing an anchorwoman and single mother in the drama that promises to be a realistic take on dating and marriage. Bae Soo-bin (Secret) stars as a talented and ambitious anchorman, which sounds like a potentially great pairing full of tense news desk banter. I just always picture news anchors to be fast-talking no-nonsense people, though I suppose that’s based on TV show characters more than anything.
The latest addition to the cast is Noh Min-woo (God’s Gift–14 Days), who will be playing a charismatic chaebol heir. He’s a star newspaper reporter, which seems like an interesting profession for the only son of a leading chaebol group, though he sounds like a character who likes to stray off the beaten path. He studied abroad, but dropped out of business school to go to culinary school, and then somehow ended up a reporter.
He’s a character who enjoys dating but finds marriage burdensome, and will represent the youthful take on marriage and dating in the drama. There will be a total of four couples (and no telling how much inter-dating we’ll have amongst them), so there should be more casting announcements on the way, and we’ll try to sort out who’s paired with whom then. Then again, an ensemble cast where everyone dates everyone could be even better.
Greatest Marriage is headed to TV Chosun in September.

Sounds like a mishmash of all possible tropes. But this is the channel that gave us Bride of The Century, right?
That's another drama that sounded like a crazy mix on paper but actually delivered well. I hope they can manage the same for Greatest Marriage. :)
Go cable!!!

Haha, that was my reaction as well. Apparently he played the band leader Tae-oh in God's Gift.

Do korean men really wear haircuts like that????
It's so ugly should be illegal.
I will never understand this kdrama, or korean thing, about man bangs. never. But I love them anyway.

I could never understand the heavy make up and lipstick on male actors, especially the young flower boys. For Heaven's sake let them be men!

OMG! I thought I was the only one hi feels this way! I really hate them too, but I try to ignore it as much as I can. Some times it's not as bad but sometimes it's so bad it makes me really wonder what's keeping it a trend for so long. Ew. It's a breath of fresh air everytime I see some ones forehead lol

Oooo a newsroom romance should be fun. Don't care that much about this casting though. I like him, but not all that much...

Apparently if he were just a reporter, the writer would be clueless as to what to do with his character. Thank goodness he had the sense to make him filthy rich with a filthy rich, probably overbearing family, or no one in the viewing audience would be able to relate to him.

I'm just happy Shi Yeon gets back in the game. I thought her professional career would be sidetracked forever after that whole drug deal.

I'm just so happy Park Shi-yeon is going to be acting again and Bae Soo Bin is doing a role where I won't hate his character lol.
Noh Min Woo's hotness is such an added side-benefit too. I had a huge crush on him in My Girlfriend is a Gumiho.

Can they turn him back into Pasta days first (Maybe even Mrs. Town)? He's a bit too skinny and feminine these days to fit the proper chaebol role, especially alongside someone voluptuous like Park Shi Yeon.

The trouble with Pasta was I couldn't take my eyes off of No Min woo long enough to read the subs. Nowadays someone should just buy the poor thing a sandwich.
Mentioning anorexia would probably be unkind.

I watched Pasta and thought you all were off saying he was in it. I looked it up and sure enough he was in it but wow does he look different with a little weight on him.

Yes, maybe because he was channeling Hwang Tae Kyung so much.

It's too bad his career as a rock musician for ICON didn't really pick up. Haven't seen him act in anything but hope he does well in this drama.

You should try watching his dramas! If you like rom-coms, he was pretty funny in Full House Take 2. Never thought he could do comedy lol But if you like serious stuff, check him out in Midas. Never saw a sick man so beautiful!

I use to find him attractive, but his "feminine" off screen look put me off and now I have a hard time picturing him as a "man".
He is beautiful, but he wears way too much make up for my taste.

Add some weight to him, plus messy hair, and tadaa, you've got your sexy rebellious chaebol :)

Noh, Min-Woo lost all his weight to play the sick chaebol on Midas. I wish he would gain some of it back cause he looked so much better...but still love him...

As much as I would love to feed this boy a sandwich, I do not think he cares whether or not he appeals to me.
I, and yes I have wasted more time on this than I care to admit, think he wishes to appeal to different demographic then myself and perhaps a good portion of DramaBeans readers. If one were to speculate, I believe this emasculated, fae look appeals to a portion of the Japanese populous, but that is just speculation.
He is a very pretty person and I hope he is happy and successful. [and more power to him for following his own path.]

Very true. I wish him the best success too. That man can play drums like nobody's business. I also hear that he may be half Japanese. I can believe it. There's something in his features that resemble their looks. My sis and I love him. With those long legs he looks like a manga character. If they ever make Sailor Moon live action (Korean style) there's your Darien! lol
