dangermousieKim Su Hyun has been cast opposite Han Ga In in Moon That Embraces the Sun, a fantasy romance sageuk.
WTF WTF WTF WTF!!!
I happen to like both actors but this is the most insane casting imaginable. First of all, Han Ga In is SIGNIFICANTLY older - 29 to his 23. Now, if she was 39 to his 33, this would not matter as much, but when you are in your 20s, it matters a lot. More importantly, there is a reason KSH played much younger than his age up until now. He may be 23 but he looks 17. Lee Min Ho or Jung Il Woo are only a year older than KSH but if they were cast, I would have no problem because neither will look like a kid playing dress-up opposite Han Ga In - they look like adults, KSH does not.
I mean, Han Ga In's last leading man was Sexiness That Is Bidam himself and she is married to Yeon Jung Hoon. There is a reason for that. She is a grown-up woman. The thought of pairing her with KSH as a romantic interest boggles the mind.
Honestly, what drugs were the casting directors doing? It was rumored Park Shi Hoo would take the lead. That would make sense. This - this makes no sense at all.
