Thanks for the information. I don't know what happened to Li Ming De. Perhaps others here in the forum might know.

Thanks for the update!

The drama apparently working on AI Face-swapping for supporting cast member Li Ming De. His role now played by a new actor. Rumor for March or April 2025 release.

Thanks for the information!

Are there any side couples in this drama? I like dramas with multiple couples.

Poster above found article saying she got married and had a child in 2020, and has left the entertainment industry.

Thanks for this update. I was wondering what happened to her. I hope she will return to acting someday in future.

Post on Reddit says it is available on OneShort app under the title Hard to Soothe the Heart
Also available on Dramabox app under the title Heart of Obsession

Drama available at YouTube with English subs. See spoiler.

Any updates for this drama? I know the director is currently shooting "Zhu Yu." Has this drama completed filming?

Watched this drama because of the main leads, and once again CFT and DGZ do not disappoint with their on-screen chemistry. The script was just okay. It had potential and all the actors did their best, but it was weak in several areas. That said, I enjoyed the rom com set up and was grateful for the happy ending, however rushed it felt. I think the rom com genre suits this pair. I would love to see CFT and DGZ work together again with a much better, solid script that can showcase their acting skills and not just rely on their natural rapport with one another and their ability to provide good love scenes. I'd love to see these 2 together in a regular drama. I sometimes think about how great it would be if this pair could be in a drama directed by the king of the Mini Dramas, Zeng Qing Jie. (Of course, he will direct DGZ in an upcoming project, but without Dawn Chen.)

Is this drama a Girls Love? I'm getting contradictory messages on other forums. It seems just one of those "rich teens doing bad things" type of dramas. Can anyone clarify what the GL content is, if any? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info. I checked the list of shows coming to Amazon Prime in my region and Scandal of Chun Hwa wasn't listed. So I think it may be available in India only. Hopefully, some other platforms might get it later with quality subs. I keep requesting at Viki.

The drama is available at Viki.

The only other C drama couple I know about is Liang Jie and Xing Zhao Lin. They did 4 dramas together. I think there are some drama couples that focus on the short dramas scene, but I don't know any of them.

OMG! Dawn Chen and DGZ together again and in a contract marriage drama (one of my favorite tropes)! I can't wait! Hope thus gets subbed soon.

I was wondering the same thing: is this a remake of Taiwan drama "Just You" starring Puff Guo? That would be great if true. I really enjoyed the Taiwan drama.

Actually, what I said was "passionate about the CRAFT of acting." (Sorry for the caps, but I'm unable to bold). And I listed some examples of activities that people who are dedicated to the Craft do. (I began by stating "For example..." ) These examples included not just degrees, but also other types of activities such as taking group classes and working with acting coaches. Anyway, thanks for your response and for providing some information about Jisoo and her activities on the craft of acting. It is good to know that she is working with an acting coach, and has worked with acting coaches in the past.

So your evidence that she is "passionate about her craft" is that she is starring in dramas. Many people work in the industry and can have starring roles, but are not "passionate about the craft" of acting. They are there because it pays well and some enjoy the perks, but they don't care about improving their performances, stretching their boundaries, or working on the craft of acting. A prime example is Won Bin who had many starring roles, and he was considered a talented actor , but he was not passionate about the craft of acting and ultimately stopped acting I was hoping you could provide some solid evidence forJisoo that she cares about the craft of acting. For example, is Jisoo pursuing a bachelor's degree in Drama/Theater at a university? If not pursuing a degree, is she taking courses in drama and theater at a university,? Is Jisoo participating in any acting workshops or other related short course programs such as summer theater institutes? Is she at least taking group acting classes with noted acting and drama teachers? Does she at minimum have an acting coach with whom she is studying daily or weekly? Is Jisoo involved with any regional theaters, perhaps taking smaller roles in live theater? People who are "passionate about the craft of acting" actively pursue these type of training activities and also study the history of drama and theater, and they continue their training and study life long. It goes beyond just working on jobs, or an occasional session with an acting coach. Lots of people enjoy acting and work on many jobs, but don't actively work on the craft. All I know right now is that Jisoo has worked on three projects and (I guess) enjoys acting on TV.

That is very unfortunate for us viewers. Thanks for the information on the influencers and the TV/Film industry in SK.
