@noona
I don’t know this actress but sometimes the actress seems younger than her age, is so beautiful and has such great acting skills that you can’t feel the noona-dongsaeng relationship and can’t imagine anyone else but her for playing the role and even the producer doesn’t want to use a younger but weaker actress in cost of endangering his drama.The most famous one is HJW. She is the queen and you can pair her up with anyone and she never ever makes you disappointed. Like what she did with HB and LSG.

July 22nd, 2012 at 11:52 am

July 22nd, 2012 at 3:47 pm
sigh.. another older girl pairing with younger actor.. where are all the younger girl actress.. there’s so many from the K-Pop singers.. cant they select one from there to pair with LMH..? anyway.. hope the pairing wont spoil the mood for this promising drama..

udh gak sabar liat Lee min ho oppa akting lagi… saranghae…
July 22nd, 2012 at 11:19 pm
@tey KHS was very popular bec she is so beautiful. I hv only watched one drama of hers and i wasn’t impressed. She took a few years off after she got married n hv a baby, maybe thats why u havent seen her before. LMH did well pairing with Sonyejin for Personal Taste even though she is older than him. Hopefully this one will be good too.
July 22nd, 2012 at 11:33 pm

July 23rd, 2012 at 6:10 am
@SEGACRAZE
I also am waiting for Arang and this. Actually i’m not a LMH fan but i want to watch it coz the subject matter seems interesting and i ‘m so curios to know if it can beat QIM. To the beautiful you also seems funny and interesting. I hope it won’t be another Heartstrings.
July 23rd, 2012 at 1:16 pm
Man can’t wait!
July 23rd, 2012 at 1:17 pm
August should come faster!!!!!
July 23rd, 2012 at 1:18 pm
Omg Lmh is back.
July 23rd, 2012 at 5:06 pm
Kim Hee Sun looks really beautiful even when her age is 35!
I pretty much liked her in Smile Again
And god we have Lee Min Ho here, so that is a MUST watch.
I would watch Faith even if the story would suck(which I do not hope and wish!!!) just for spazzing over his hotness**
Lee Philip is here too!:) Haven’t seen him since Secret Garden.
And Sung Hoon is here, too:’)
Conclusion: The cast is just awesome and I hope that PD did make an awesome script too:D

I love LMH, Can’t wait to see him, but am not sure of the 10-year age difference in pairing, hope it will work out.
July 23rd, 2012 at 11:10 pm
I’m joined too…Lee Min Hoo so much ppl here waiting for U , I like watch the trailer and can’t wait to see U soon ..this ramadhan fun watching LMH N LJK ..action boys!!
young lead actor met old lead actress…become trend in KD..I agree with @KDaddict the audience is mostly female, and often made up of ajummas !! NO problem as long they great together
