I'm not sure who made the request (I was planning to), but MDL has now revised Yoo In-soo to Main Role status. If the name is one the poster, then it's considered "Main" role.
Also Alchemy of Souls cast reunion Uncle Park Jin x Park Dang Gu
After AoS (Part 1) ended in August 2022, I searched out other dramas featuring some of my favorite actors, including Yoo Joon Sang Park Jin). I put Uncanny Counter on my Watchlist but didn't pay much attention until. . . . . in September they announced that In-soo would be joining UC2. I immediately binged all of UC and have been waiting for this show for almost a year.
JTBC released a new trailer/preview (2.5 minutes long) and a fan of Lee Jun Ho has provided her Eng sub translation. Still looks like fun and I'm looking forward to it. Note: the preview is in two parts in the twitter post.
YIS is just love. His first performance as villain may have had my resentment for him, but each role afterwards…
Lol, TvN just released still cuts and video of the UC 2 script reading (from last October) and this is how they describe In-soo character: "The final new face is Yoo In Soo as Jeok Bong, a newly recruited clumsy counter who is unfamiliar with everything." Sounds a bit like Sam-sik , doesn't it? After that, his next three roles are: a patient in a psychiatric ward; a high school bully and a convicted murderer (this last one is only a rumor).
Video (7 minutes long π) of the script reading (I believe from October 2022?). There is an auto-translate function so some of the transcript is readable.
I wish they hadnβt kept Sam Sik separate from the main story for so long. The three of them together is hilarious.
I agree - these last few episodes are what I have waited for as promised by early promotion - that Sam-sik was a world of "disappointment" with a pure heart.
Yoo In-soo was still filming Alchemy of Souls when filming began on this drama - he was juggling both for at least a month. Perhaps that is why his scenes were brief in the first few weeks.
Episode 7 is definitely not my favorite. Yes - certain scenes/dialogue was intended to Move The Story Forward and some "inner thoughts" by ML were . . . .possibly meaningful ???
.But a disappointment because if **I** was writing this, I could have created/imagined better plot devices than the one today. Did the "stay in a temple" company invest in this drama??
Nevertheless, when I finally get out of bed in the morning PDT, I get my cup of coffee and watch this drama on M/Tu. Characters are charming and. . . .that's about it.
All I ask is that he be at least two-dimensional (a little good; a little bad) unlike one-dimension evil Cruella.
interesting comment by the actor - I'm watching him right now on "Goddess of Revenge" and he is a cutie..
I could be wrong - I often am - but from the beginning I thought that SJ loved him/he loved SJ (more than he loved YD - after all, he had a RING for SJ) and if SJ gets ANY redemption/positive ending, it will be because of him. 28 episodes to find out. π
If you mean "main romantic lead", then appearance might have something to do with it, but his talent shines in unique, one-of-a-kind characters.
