Many characters haven't been confirmed, even main characters such as Gerard Jin/Jin Gayool and Teddy Jin/Jin Tae-oh. Any ideas for fan casts? I have already created one and have been working on it since April 2023, but there are some which I am not 100% sure about.

MY FANCAST:

Gerard Jin - Lee Chae-min or Moon Sang-min (fits every requirement and also CCIR reunion for LCM and LMJ) Can not think of more suitable candidates for this role.

Kingsley Kwan - Lee Ha-min (a new actor, I don't think this is a very challenging role and that's why I chose someone who might have some connections to director Han Jun-hee as two of the three shows containing WH/DP actors, fits requirements and overall I believe can play the role well)

Teddy Jin - mesh him with Colton or get Park Jibin (who we all thought would play Donald at first) to play him, I cannot find a better fit for Teddy considering Jibin plays the small intimidating character well

Rowan Im - a lot of his characters traits likely won't be possible so I don't really see why having him in the show is necessary, but an actor that could play him is Ryu Ui-hyun (who was also in Adult Trainee with Ryeoun, Ben Park's actor and A-Teen with the actor for Seok-dae from WHC1)

Jake Ji - either Lomon or Park Jung-woo (I think they can pull it off well, but I don’t want him to show up in class 2)

Phillip Kim - Jin Ho-eun (has played this sort of character before, similar to Lee Jun-young and just needs to do it again)

Myles Joo - mesh him with Seok-dae from season 1 and somehow link him to Manwol, if not I don't have an actor for him yet

Jimmy Bae - replaced with Kang Woo-young from season 1, alter the plot a little so that the altercation between him and Ben doesn’t happen (at the start of the season at least), I just don't want Cha Woo-min to not show up again, he had little screentime in season 1 and he played his role so well that I want him to be in later seasons, but if Jimmy Bae isn't replaced then I don't have a casting for him yet

Forrest Lee - Kim Jung-jin (after watching him in boyhood, another delinquent drama, he has the looks and is a pretty good underrated actor so I think he would fit into weak hero)

In terms of power scaling also, Soo-ho would be around the same level as Ben and Jake. It would then make sense that Seok-dae and Woo-young were weaker than him (we all know Soo-ho was stronger than Woo-young, he just cheated).

 Winter:
Lee Chae-min

Yeah I think its too early for Jake to show in season 2 so hopefully not yet. Don't want them to rush things.

I am quite excited to see Jun Young in the cast list.  How concrete is that tho? 

I'm a  big fan of his series/films and music.

It is confirmed. He will definitely be in it, as a side villain in the story or possibly the main villain for season 2.

You totally misunderstood my comment.

I have been on Pentagon Wooseok as Gerald Jin train even before Part 1 was announced. He was my first and only choice as live-action Gerald when I was reading the webtoon. Reasons:

  1. He is freaking tall (1.9m) and he can use his legs very well. Also, he can do good in action scenes.
  2. He looks amazing with bangs AND green hair. He can do a mean pissed-off angry face.
  3. He can play guitar and sing. 

Seriously, that guy is practically a walking Gerard. It's a shame he isn't in the drama.
