I wonder if liking Lee Soo Hyuk and the bromance will overwhelm my dislike for Park Shi Hoo or it's the other way around?
Oh, wait, there's Yuri as well who is stiff as hell..

My love for LSh is not enough that Psh shirtless picture alone creeps the hell out of me i don't think i'll be able to watch him. I'm skipping this one.

Oh the irony. A rapist who paid his way out of prison with money is playing a hero. Not watching for obvious reasons.

I like the premise, character description, well, most of the cast(all, except one) and i really want to give this one a try for the other actors present.

Don't know!! I will try to prepare myself for watching, till next year.. Augh, is it too much if i still pray for a diff male lead?!

LSH, Sang-ye...

Nice chest but it does nothing for me. Nope.

I like Park Shi Hoo, although I'm a bit apprehensive in regards to Lee Soohyuk's acting.

Argh, used to adore Park Shi-Hoo so much which is why I the disappointment and the anger was high.
Skipping on this, I honestly can't look at him.

Park Shi Ho will never regain his popularity as an actor again. I think the production company and network are taking a huge risk trying to bring him back. Dramas with fairly popular actors fail in the ratings all the time. Having said that, I'm glad they are taking a risk on him. Rape is no small matter but plenty of Korean celebrities have had their careers interrupted and/or hindered over some pretty petty things. Since he was never convicted of the crime and the woman chose to drop the charges then he's very lucky to be getting a second chance.

Will never be able to watch PSH ever again after his unconscionable actions and using money to escape his criminal behaviour speaks loudly of his bad judgement and character.

Couldn't been happier. Two of my favourite actors making a comeback. <3

Can death of the author apply to actors and their characters? Because there are a lot of terrible people having work in the entertainment industry and unfortunately there's not much one can do other than refuse to watch their products. I'm going to be seeing this drama because it looks like an interesting premise but I can totally understand why people don't want to see this.

@Journogirl:

Re #2: Yes, the PD's ultimate professional responsibility is to make a good show but professional responsibility should not exclude a general moral responsibility such as casting an actor with this kind of personal history. Imagine if you're a female worker on set and having to temper down your fear around such an actor on a daily basis.

If what you said is true of #1 that the PD ultimately have to bow down network pressure of whom to cast then maybe I can understand their decisions but unless there was an Actor Apocalypse wiping out all other Korean actors, I will continue to side eye this casting choice.

I also disagree that his punitive sentence of being away from Korea industry for two years is suffice especially since he was still making money in China.

And yes, I shall not be watching this even though the plot continues to sound awesome. *sigh*

Guys, are we still gonna talk about PSH case again and again and again? Is this site the place to give your 2 cents about the man and his crime? If you don't want to watch this drama ok that's your right. I'm no fan of him and I don't condone what he did but I find it boring and childish to reaffirm your distaste for PSH everytime there's news about him.

"Condemn the act, not the person."

I just see a man with white face and light brown body.

I'll be looking forward to this, but not without a critical eye for PSH. It's my first time hearing about his scandal, but I guess, I can't reduce a show based on an actor's image alone. after all, a show is not solely run by actors, but by the collaborative vision of actors, crews, writers, directors, etc.

It's good to hear that many of us condone rape. And I hope, while we are at it, we should also grab this opportunity to think about our attitude toward celebrity culture - the way we look up at celebrities, the way we consume them, etc. the thing with celebrity culture is that it can allow both the exploitation of celebrities and the celebrities' exploitation of others.

I'm not a fan of PSH really. The first time I saw him was in Jisun's MV. His character was a man in love with a snail girl (can't remember the title of the song). His personal trouble aside, this drama promises an interesting story line. So, I'm going to watch it then only pass judgement after few episodes (whether it worth investing my time).

All the holiest people in the house....if I dont want to be rape, I will stay away from drink....worst, I will stay away from been around a healthy man when drunk....but when am stupid enough to be drunk and be around a man.....I should bear the consequences and move on....am so watching this movie and his next, plus next....#whatsnext#

Even after the events of two years ago, I remain a hugh Park Shi Hoo fan and look forward to his Korean drama come back. This looks like an interesting drama and I hope both transceiver and viki pick it up so we can see it in the U.S.

I have not ignored the rape allegation. However, there is too much not clear about the situation, that my personal opinion is that it does not seem to have been a criminal encounter. I am not blaming the victim or taking the side of a rapist or accusing the woman of entrapment because I don't know enough to apply any labels to the event other than, unfortunate.

I look forward to seeing PSH in his new drama.

The chest
Gulp , most of the time it does wonders for me when male leads have a shirtless scene but this..erm no, sorry
To me if the audience feel like that, your days are over
If a male lead can't win with a shirtless scene, he can't win. Period

I would like "dramafever" to pick it up not "transceiver". Thank you auto correct.

I'm gonna pass on this ...hard. The plot sounds intriguing and I would totally watch ...but not with that guy playing the hero. I just can't with this .... And I think I'm not the only one who will have a problem with that .... I really hope it will reflect in the ratings and it tanks. Sorry, not sorry.

Spy-action dramas are not easy to come by in dramaland so I will be definitely checking this one. I've only seen LSH in the SWWTN and since historical Korean drama tend to be on the theatrical side, it will be interesting to see him acting in a different genre. JSH is a veteran so it will be delight to see him on forefront. I've seen PSH in Princes' Man and Confession of Murder. Didn't like Princes' Man much, mainly because of the directing, but even so I was looking forward to a new PSH project to see what else he can do.

(btw that white face dark body pic is hilarious, as if he had his face dipped in flour and now is about to wash it off)

I'm very happy, because I can see the new drama wit Park Si Hoo. He's great talent. I'm glad He's came back.
I'll stay forever PSH fans. I hope we are very many people.
FIGHTING !!!! Park Si Hoo !!! We love you !!!

I'm a big fan of Park Si Hoo and I'm really happy cause he's back! I love his dramas and movies, and I'm really exciting to watch his new movie (After love) and his new drama! Fighting Park Si Hoo! Your fans love you!!!! ♥

He should put on 5O pounds, change his name and act in two bit roles. He carried the girl who was basically unconscious to his place which was caught on CCTV. He admitted having sex with her.Textbook date rape.

I'm waiting very much this drama because of Park Si Hoo ! We are happy because we are his fans in Budapest/Hungary. Fighting! <3

I really want to watch this because of Park Shi Hoo. Fighting Park Shi Hoo!!!

Lots ot love from Hungary to Park Shi Hoo ^^

Park Si Hoo great actor , I love since The princess man .. Fighting oppa..

Who are you to judge anybody ? Who was there and knows what happened. The end result was this. I think one can be a good actor regardless ones private life. I hope his debut will go fine.
