Just as I begin to like Joo Won as an actor (FINALLY liked a drama of his, currently watching My Sassy Girl, and now I can see his charm suddenly lol) THE MAN HAS MULTIPLE UPCOMING PROJECTS --YAY!! 🥰

Yeah I realized 😅 Confused it with Joo Won's other upcoming drama, which is a historical.

Watching Joo Won in My Sassy Girl currently, he really suits historical drama !

Finally a historical with a bit older cast, nowdays most feature such young childish looking cast & plot it's unwatchable to us older kdrama fans. 😅

I know right!
Haven't been enyoing any recent romance dramas at all (mostly just early 2000s - max 2015),
they don't write them well anymore? The old more more melo style is better?

But THIS SCREENWRITER knows how to write a good romcom! (Aka. Mad For Each Other)

+Screenwriter is talented too!

The screenwriter is such a queen too! Can't get over her last drama!
It likely will 😉

I know right! That writer really knows how to add depth into romcoms and not just the usual shallow romcom.
So excited for this now!

Written by Mad For Each screenwriter who knows how to add depth into romcom and not just another shallow silly meaningless romcom. And FL written with more depth than usual too.

YIA's character: The Contrast between her pen name Deborah and Bo Ra makes it more interesting than just an all-powerful FL.

Mad For Each Other remains one of my fave dramas.

LOL

Written by Mad For Each Other writer too. Should be good.

But please no love triangle lol

lol

Two of my biases cast together as ML & FL, let's goooooo!!!

Also hope there's romance betw their characters

Eh Vincenzo way WAY better than this just very typical chaebol revenge drama (even with reincarnation yes this one was very much just like any other chaebol drama)

I actually loved him with Moon Jae In.

I think their loveline was necessary in showing the more vulnerable, LESS IN CONTROL side of the male lead.
With the other two ladies he was the one always seducing them, having them under his control; but with Moon Jae In he lost control and he ended up being the one controlled by her.
It was an interesting contrast to observe. That loveline was like a character arc for ML, not just a love arc.

Don't get me wrong, his chemistry with Hong Tae Ra was a very fun bonus.
Basically I think this drama is better enjoyed multishipping.

(Also imo Hong Tae Sung was too much of a mess to be good with anyone and not deserving of the FL. Needed theraphy. I mean even more than the others lol)

Miho briefly asked Van's age, but he didn't answer lol.
I think that's the closest we've gotten to finding out.

Having been a Namgil fan for years I can honestly say that as much as he excels in action drama and comedy, the genre he's actually MOST suited to is Romance-melo.
Watch him in Bad Guy (A Romance melo) and you'll see.
I've never seen such deep expressive eyes that expresse angst and longing by any other actor.

Maybe PDs should cast him in RomanceMelo with a side of Action combo dramas and get the most of both worlds?

There's also the more well known Live Up To Your Name
romance drama, but since that one is more of a comedy, his melo eyes & angsty longing looks not quite as visible as in Bad Guy drama where it's full on.

(his drama Shark is also a romance melo, but I haven't watched that one yet)

For those craving Kim Nam Gil in a Romance Melo,
I recommend his old drama Bad Guy.

He plays a HOT HOT HOT very charming man who sedues 3 female leads lol

You're welcome ;). (Be aware of messy end though, as Namgil had to leave for military service before finishing filming )

No need to imagine, watch his old drama Bad Guy.
It's a romance melo-revenge one. His lovely expresions are on point as he seduces not only 1 but all 3 female leads lol

PDs NEED to watch it too, they wouldn't hesitate to cast him in romance then 😅
