Choi Sulli as Goo Jaehee (Mizuki Ashiya)

So for everyone who like me didn't understand which character was which in the casting news, I've made a handy guide with the help of some guides made by people who have a longer attention span than me. To the Beautiful You's airing date has been pushed back to the 15th because Ghost's airing was preempted by the Olympics, so while you're waiting, check this out^^



Choi Minho as Kang Taejoon (Sano Izumi)


Lee Hyun Woo as Cha Eun-gyeol (Nakatsu Shuichi)


Kim Jiwon as Seol Ha-na (Yamashina Rina)
(pretty much just a guess, but this is the only character the drama character description fits. she appears for a very short time at the beginning of the manga. they may have just made a character for her though.)


Ki Tae-young as Jang Min-woo (Dr. Umeda)
(Ki Tae-young is the husband of Eugene of S.E.S.)


Seo Jun young as Ha Seung-ri (Nanba Minami) *DORM 2 LEADER


Hwang Kwang-hee as Song Jong-min (Nakao) 
(yeah I don't really get this one at all. of all the idols you could get to act as a feminine-looking guy...)


Yoo Min Kyu as Young-mahn (Megumi Tennoji) *DORM 1 LEADER


Kim Ee An/Kim Ian as Na Chul Soo (Oscar M. Himejima) *DORM 3 LEADER
(an actor under SM Ent, he's been in a couple musicals before)


Kang Ha-neul as Joo Ji-cheol (Makoto Kagurazaka)


Ahn Hye-kyung as Yang Seo-yoon (Akiha Hara)
(...yeah apparently they turned the gay guy into a girl. idk what to say)


Julien Kang as Daniel (Mizuki’s half-brother from America)


Kang Kyung-joon, Lee Young-eun
And now for some apparently drama-original characters? (I might be wrong it's been a long time since I've read the manga)
from dramabeans:
Kang will play athletic coach Byun Kwang-min, who’s not so brainy (“simple and uneducated”) but rates strong on the brawny meter. He’s a former high jumper and he’s known for being tough on his students, making him an antagonistic presence to the kids. But he turns into a softy whenever he’s around love interest and fellow language teacher Lee Young-eun (Marriage Plot). Which makes me think of the sidekicks in Big — or, you know, any of the High Kicks, which may be more apropos given this writer’s resumé.



And finally, a new trailer (not much new material):

Mods, I hope this is okay since we haven't had a post on a lot of these cast members yet.

Yoo Minkyu aka my love Hajin from "Shut Up Flower Boyband" as Tennouji. Cannot wait.

I'd love for just one scene where he interacts with Chanyeol. Just 'cause I find them so similar to each other. Height, face, deep voice, and everything.

That SM actor playing Oscar is pretty cute. :)

Lee Hyunwooooooooooooooo! Damn I love this guy. Such a wonderful actor. This ugly haircut is like a way to distract everyone from Minho's terrible acting skills (if you can call that 'acting' or 'skills').

OP thank you so much for putting together this post! it was very helpful.

Trust Korea to turn the canonically gay character into a woman /sigh
Not too fond of the Tennouji casting, but will have to see him in action. The rest looks pretty decent :o

Nope. That's a different actor. Looks a lot like Kwanghee though.

I'm not really sure about the disguise, because she's way too obvious, but I hope they don't forget the NAILS tho. The Mizuki in the 2011 Japanese version was atrocious and insulting.

My only wish for this drama is that the actor playing the Dr. Umeda really brings it. I thoroughly enjoyed him in the Japanese and Taiwanese dramas. : D

I don't care for the final casting much; I never liked the manga, but it makes me wonder whether the Korean add-ons will ruin it or make it better.

Isn't that photo of Julian kind of old...unless he slimmed down on some of his sexiness. I remember watching the old Empire reality show and he was so randomly sexy with WATER involved...it was awesome LOL
