Previously, it was announced that actress Kim Yoo Jung was considering a role in the upcoming drama, “School 2017,” which is a continuation of the “School” series running since 1999.

On June 5, Kim Yoo Jung’s agency, Sidus HQ, came out with an official statement delivering some unfortunate news for fans of the actress and the series. They said Kim Yoo Jung will not be taking the role.

Meanwhile, gugudan’s Kim Sejong and actor Kim Jung Hyun are still considering taking roles in the upcoming drama, and KBS is also looking at other potential castings.

Hopefully, Kim So Hyun's fans can stop with the hate comments and fan war now.

I would have loved to see her in a youth drama like this :(

she would have been such a good addition to school drama /: wondering who else they might cast for the lead

[demeulemeester.livejournal.com]

apparently gugudan/ioi sejeong is confirmed to be the female lead

She gets hate messages?! Wtf. I watched her in 1n2d and i just can not comprehend how is it any possible for anyone to hate this bubble of sunshine who can not stop eating.
I never knew there was such tension between her and ksh's fans, but given the similar trajectory of their careers... i guess some people just don't understand the concept of a healthy rivalry.

i suggest checking out dramabeans, sometimes the comments sections gets really messy under articles about kim yoo jung and kim so hyun

fans were spouting nonsense that kyj is copying ksh, who did school 2015 etc. and some fans were saying ksh is copying kyj b/c of ruler master of the mask

i don't want to write a whole essay, but it doesn't help that sidus hq gives them both similar dramas and tends to prefer one over the other (i won't say who).

why?? she have her lead role, nobody is taking nothing fro her.

I find her so pretty, and not in the way of oh you are so pretty you have such a small face.

You know the last line was uncalled for

You can say the same things about yoojung fans also and it is normal between the two actress fans although it is not nice things to do

In my opinion yoojung made the good choice even if the school drama turned to be a hit

i feel you op. this fanwar is going on for such a long time but it got extra vicious over past year (esp with that whole witchhunt over poor girl looking at her nails). neither side is acting pretty but ksh stans got on whole new level after those "controversies".
i really like both actresses and i was actually looking forward to kyj in school 2017 because i liked her in angry mom a lot and wanted to see another school drama with her.
