No idea! I haven't got time to read webtoons, esp. if it might spoil a drama - they're like detailed story boards these days. It wasn't implied in the drama either, it's my inference based on his character, a guy that pulls elaborate tricks to get into girls' pants - too much of a coincidence, even by k-drama standards!

Poster looks a bit Squid Gamey! Looking forward to part 2 with an open mind. Part 1 was sensational, so cool... it can't be matched so I won't be comparing, just hope part 2's half as good and it'll be enough.

This looks great, hope it's as good as Mad for Each Other!

Wasn't Babi a gaslighter in season 1? Undermining Woong, accidental-deliberate meetings in the park, hiding Yumi's umbrella (yes, I think so!), the fake-ex meeting in the cafe (yes, he set that up, right?), crashing the drinks gathering... No way Yumi-ssi, don't fall for it! I'm still rooting for a Woong comeback!

It's probably an even split in roles, but even so, Jung Hae-in's making a reputation as an actor with integrity and humility, i.e. a proper actor. Any proper actor wants to contribute to the whole and work with great people, it's not a competition, it's art.

That was her move into A-list, very popular drama

Agree, I was just thinking about his comments in the past about wanting to work with Ha Ji-won... also, regarding 2nd choice, when a big name changes it's like a reset button is pressed, anything can happen - however, since it was KHN's project first I wish him the best, I don't really mind because he's a great actor that I also like.

I liked both of them, Silent Sea and Seo Bok, definitely my type of thing

btw I only remember he turned down new drama by Kim Eun Hee, which I thought was understandable, she seems to be going for quantity over quality these days. He did The Silent Sea - he's in a position to wait for only the best scripts and this one sounds like it's a good one. I only recently realised KHN was just 32, when I watched Camellia it didn't even occur to me Gong Hyo-jin was 10 years his senior! Now that I know, I guess it bothers me, not sure, but I like him all the same.

I wasn't being that serious, KHN already confirmed after all

And also Youn Yuh Jung played her mother in law in The King 2 Hearts

It's newsworthy. Seems the big hitters have shared roles over many years, Ha Ji-won won't mind in the least that Son Ye-jin turned it down, I'm sure the reverse has also occurred in the past.

I love her. If there's romance involved I'd prefer them to swap Kang Ha-neul for Gong Yoo.... I heard he's waiting for the chance to star alongside Hae-rim ssi.
