I am Legend - who will be Kim Sun Ah's leading man

[dangermousie]

Now that I am Legend has been rushed into production for a May broadcast, I keep wondering who they are going to cast as the male lead opposite Kim Sun Ah? This is such a rush job they don't really have the time to look around.

Unless they are going for a younger man storyline, their leading guy has to be over 30 and I can't think of anyone who'd fit.

People like Kang Ji Hwan (it would actually be pretty interesting to see them together), Gong Yoo, Song Seung Heon, Cha Seung Won, Kwon Sang Woo, Song Il Gook, Park Shi Hoo, Ji Sung etc are all either doing dramas now or will be doing dramas or movies shortly and thus can't take on another one. A whole bunch of actors who'd be suitable are in the army. I honestly can't think who is left. This is completely random but Park Yong Ha is age-appropriate and has no drama coming up. But other than him I can't come up with anyone. Maybe Lee Sung Jae or Park Shin Yang (but the latter is banned by the studios). Hmmm.

Guesses? Suggestions?

I am horribly curious.

Okay I'm just going to throw in super random names but what about Oh Ji Ho? He's not doing anything yet and he's got some fresh popularity right now coming out from Chuno that they can capitalize on.

Or maybe Choi Chul Ho? He's not that popular but Kim Sun Ah's popularity alone can carry this series to safe shore.

Or Won Bin? or maybe Rain? He was thinking of a comeback drama to work on, wasn't he? Okay the last two names I'm reserving them to work with LDH in her next project so they're off limits. Can I do that even though LDH hasn't even announced her next project yet? HAHA

Hagrid :)

OJH would be great (if he is a rocker he can keep long hair!) but would he do another drama so soon after Chuno? Doesn't the poor man need to catch up on his sleep.

Rain's next drama is supposed to be with Chuno's writer.

I'd love to see Won Bin but this may not be high profile enough (and too last minute) for him.

Oooh, I don't think Joo Jin Mo is doing anything atm.

hmmm I think he can handle it. Like alexandra said his other Chuno co-stars have already picked their projects, so I wouldn't be surprised if he picks up his own soon. Also, I think he's had his rest already. I read from popseoul that he just went to Hawaii for a shoot there. Oh you should see the photos. Check them out here: http://popseoul.com/2010/04/22/oh-hello-oh-ji-ho/ He looks hot and all but doesn't it look a little too photoshopped?

And yeah. I'd love to see WB again but I don't think he'll agree to do this particular project.

RE: Rain
Yeah I've read about this. I wish if this project push through with CSI (Chuno writer), they'd cast LDH along side him. HAHA! It'll just be super convenient because (1) LDH's under Rain's management company, (2) LDH's such a total fangirl over Rain!, and (3) CSI already worked with LDH and he can make up for underwriting LDH's character in Chuno as some might say. So yeah, it's like hitting three birds with one stone! I say they go for it! :))

O/T: Have you seen the character posters of Road No.1? I was waiting for you to post about it. They're so very pretty!

Those posters reallt were wonderful. If and when they release an actual trailer, I just might combust.
