Absolute Boyfriend kdrama starts casting

[dangermousie]

As per drama beans.

I sincerely hope it is based on the manga I adore and not the jdrama which I hate. Seeing that they want to cast Kim Ha Neul, it's probably the latter though. Add in the fact that kdrama adaptations of manga usually suck (BOF, *shudder*) and there is no way they will be able to deal with "heroine orders a sexbot" thing on MBC (I was cracking up at jb and gf, neither of whom is familiar with the manga, wondering if It could be a sexbot and deciding not).

I think I will just wait for the twdrama.

I love Kim Ha Neul, but nothing could make me watch it if it's anything like the jdrama AND the rumours turn out to be true about T.O.P being casted as Night. I can't believe I'm saying this, but even Kim Hyun Joong would fit the role of Night better than T.O.P... unless they're planning a dark twist where Night is an assassin sent to kill Riiko.

Yes.

I know, I'll keep wondering when he'll break her neck.

Why not Jung So Min and Jung Il Woo? Age-appropriate. Or if JIW is too busy with that prettyboy cable thing, LMH.

Oh man, the shades of IRIS.

LMH would be AWESOME as the hot sexbot, LOL. I reckon Ha Suk Jin would be awesome too, but perhaps not enough name recognition there... Hell, if they're aiming to rope in younger fangirls/bank on idol fame, wouldn't a better choice be Jaejoong? Can you imagine a more perfect face for your perfect sexbot?
