Siwon and Kang Sora Confirmed for tvN Drama

[keytfelt.livejournal.com]

On August 19, tvN confirmed that Super Junior’s Choi Siwon and actress Kang Sora would be starring in the upcoming drama “Revolutionary Love”.

The drama will be Choi Siwon’s first project after his discharge from the military just a few days ago. The drama will be directed by PD Song Hyun Wook, who has previously worked on hit dramas like “Marriage, Not Dating” and “Another Oh Hae Young.”

Choi Siwon will be taking on the role of Byun Hyuk, an unemployed third-generation chaebol who has no real goals in life other than to live each day as comfortably as possible. A true believer in the power of love, Byun Hyuk does not doubt others’ intentions and is inadvisably innocent. He hides his status as a chaebol as he begins living in a regular studio apartment.

Kang Sora will play the role of Baek Joon, a hardworking woman who, despite not lacking in terms of education or background, can’t seem to overcome the steep climb to permanent employment anywhere. She works part-time jobs and lives in the same apartment as Byun Hyuk, which is how their lives become entangled.

“Revolutionary Love” is slated to air in October.

Keep it

I'm sick of SM pushing their idols in every drama, and I don't understand why do these PDs and TV networks keep on casting them when they don't even bring good ratings. I guess SM is just that powerful.

Even though I liked “Another Oh Hae Young”, that drama had some questionable scenes and the plot for this drama doesn't sound that exciting, so I think I will pass on this one.

But how would homophobe oppa make money?

It's the PD for the drama, not the writer.

I do like actor!Siwon. It's a shame about his real life self though.
He's OK in concept but not execution, so I ignore him as a person.
I miss Kang Sora so I'm most definitely going to watch and pray it's good because I want a good show for her.

Siwon's character sounds like his character from She Was Pretty so I can see why he was cast here since he did well in that.
I also still laugh at the karmic justice of him having to say he respects same-sex couples in that drama lmao.

This sounds cute, but I don't know if I can stomach watching Siwon right now. :/ (But I feel super hypocritical saying this when I just watched sungkyunkwan scandal? idk.)

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

idk ....in their previous roles he was super goofy and she was always intense, we have yet to see how they gonna fit together

on the other side i couldnt even finish “Another Oh Hae Young” ... idk if i even like this pd style lol

finding how that he was such an ass after watching she was pretty was so disappointing tbh

YAY! I was hoping Siwon would get something as soon as he came out of his enlistment.

[ohlookshiny.livejournal.com]

i actually found him so irritating in she was pretty (hate that show in general), so no thanks. can't he go back to doing chinese dramas or smth so we can get rid of him?? sora doesn't deserve this.

[jazzy4heard.livejournal.com]

"sora doesn't deserve this"

This is work. It's not like Sora is dating him.

[ohlookshiny.livejournal.com]

err idc abt that. i only meant sora deserves a better actor as her leading man.

[audiograms.livejournal.com]

This is 100% the type of drama I like.

my lil sister LOVES both of them (i don't she remembers me telling her about siwon and his bs but ok) in their latest dramas (which i didn't like from the lil bits i saw online nor descriptions so idk), i do like the plot description of this so if she's gonna watch it, i might watch it with her to check it out if it's any good
