Yes! I'm excited to see her on screen more now! qq so far we've only been given snippets of her on screen in Bride of Haebak !

Jung Kyung Ho is definitely a big plus to watch this one.

I agree! She's good playing sassy characters(with that beautiful bitch-face of hers) but for acting it's just so-so. Maybe this will be the way to improve her acting skills. Let's hope for the best!

I literally said "Nooooooooo~!!" seeing Krystal's name and pic on the side of DB. Oh man, I like Krystal as a person and a singer, but I can't w/ Actor Krystal. I mean, this is the Answer Me PD we're talking about here, so maybe, just maybe, we'll see a new and improved side to Krystal that I've never seen before. Idk. Fingers crossed and in PD Shin, we trust. But um, I definitely wouldn't mind if this casting don't work out, either. Just sayin'. I'm trying to stay positive, y'all. I really am.

I like her in BOTWG and I'm excited to see her on this one~

i don't really mind Krystal, and haven't watched Bride yet. Anyway I also read somewhere that Seungyoon is also cast in this drama? Or was it another drama? I think it was stated that it's Shin PD's new drama, and he was considered because of his Busan accent?
I'm still going to watch this for JKH though, and am waiting for the bromance too.

Omo is Krystal that bad in BotWG?

Maybe she has like 5-10 lines in each episode if it is a small role, things could work out that way. I have a feeling she'll be a prison doctor. Let's not forget the PD made Hyeri and Go-Ara look like they were made to act which is not true at all as evident by their later projects.
From the back of my head, something keeps screaming Moon Geun Young but I know it won't happen.

Hahaha JB - savage ??

But I have to agree. I happened to watch her scenes. She has that bitchy appearance & pretty but once she opened her mouth.... I laughed. Suddenly remind me of She's So Loveable. Can't believe there will be the day I'll say this - Suzy is probably slightly better than her ?

I don't know what PD Shin saw in her but I hope her scenes will be just a little since this is male centric drama and we have many male leads.

I really love Krystal, and perks of watching a drama with subs is you don't feel a thing about the awkwardness in speech delivery lol, so that helps.Strangely I love both NJH and Krystal's acting on BOTWG, the only one whom I have a hard time to resonate with is SSK, who while trying to be comedic, comes off as very forced and pretentious, at times I felt she's just acting, which can't get worse than that. I think Krystal in good hands just cause it is shin pd-nim, so excited to watch her being badass in this prison drama. I'm hoping that would be it, maybe?
And I really loved her on heirs @javabeans, that's like the only drama where she nailed being sweet and cute, going all crazy after the boyfriend. So you don't like her there either? :( Hmm.

Maybe it's become an ego thing for him to cast an idol/actress with a history of let's say questionable acting skills and coach a good performance out of her to the surprise and admiration of everyone. I don't see why he couldn't go with a proven actress for the role and why he absolutely must get someone subpar like Krystal. Considering his history, we can expect him to work his magic once again somehow, but it does feel more and more like a gimmick to me.

Answer me PD has magic in turning female idol/actress to be good in their drama. So I hope Krystal will do well.

(cries... I was hoping they will cast an actress that can hold her own frame among those men characters)*sigh*

Is not today the reading of the script? Is it Kang Seung Yoon confimed for this drama?

Uhhhhhhhh no thanks

It works for Lee Hyeri and Go Ara, so expect the miracle also happens with Krystal though I wish they could cast someone else with better acting. Minah Girl's day perhaps if you insist to get an idol for this role.

Oh no.. I haven't watch Bride episode 3&4, so I couldn't tell any opinion about Krystal as Moora. I actually enjoyed the first two episodes of BOTWG enough to feel the need to watch next episodes. So I was hoping that she won't ruin my interest for the show

Jung Kyung Ho is coming back on my screen after so long ( I didn't watch missing 9) <3 and tbh I love Krystal but ngl I'm worried a bit

Huh.

Why? ?
Ugh.

I love krystal as an idol but her acting is just not that good. I mean there are many more rookie female actors this role could have been given to, so why her? Just for her name? But a lot of idol actors get bashed a lot. I don't know how well her acting is received but I don't think she is really that popular amongst knetz either soooo. Why not just cast a rookie actor rather than an idol?

Jung Kyung-ho didn't get to save a country in his past life :(.

This series may do wonder but once they take on a new project they revert back to crappy acting. You can't teach talents.

I don't care if this comment gets downvotes but NO!!!

she’s making Nam Joo-hyuk look like a genius in comparison

let’s just say she’s redefining rock-bottom for me.

I don't usually like to criticize actor's performances too much (partly because I'm not a very good judge of acting ability) but I'll make a special exception for her.

I'm not planning to watch, so the good news is that what I don't see won't hurt me.

I don't think she's that bad lol. Definitely prefer her to some actresses that constantly get lead roles.

Aaaaargh so conflicted. This is the first project JKH has picked in a long time that has any potential, but it could turn south really easily. It's not just Krystal, either. The PD has it in him to do good work, but he's grown more complacent and self-indulgent with each Answer Me. I just hope doing something new will help.

Nooooooooooo please do not do this to Jung Kyung Ho! It ain't right.

She's one of those that I don't get...

Also, is this drama supposed to be about the guards or the prisoners? I keep thinking Orange is the New Black but I know that's not right or fair. I just don't know what the drama is about...

I've always known Krystal was popular, but for the very first time I'm getting to know exactly HOW popular she is! Check out any Bride episode/teaser on any free streaming site and all you get are "Krystal hwaiting!" comments!

I'm a bit confused
What's wrong with her line delivery?
