Yes! This is a great casting news!! :) I can just imagine… hottie guy and gorgeous gal combo: SO JI SUB, and Kim Ha Neul… together they’ll rock ROAD No.1 ^_^
This is such a happy news for both the drama AND the fans. And if you’re like me, I’ve been waiting for So Ji Sub to come up on TV with someone…. compatible, like Kim Ha Neul. He’s hot, I get it, but it’ll be better to see him next to someone like Kim Ha Neul.
If at first I was kinda disappointed to see that “Will it snow for Christmas?” produced by the same director/writer combo for “I’m sorry I love you” and “What happened in Bali” couldn’t cast So Ji Sub, but now it’s all better. Kim Ha Neul is on board, and the drama itself will aim to air next summer. (Whaaat’. I know, I know… till long months to go, but it’ll be totally worth it.)
Below is the casting news.
Kim Ha Neul is scheduled to comeback on TV and participates in MBC 60th Anniversary of Korean War – special magnum series, “Road No. 1″ (directed by Lee Jang Soo-Kim Jin Min; with Han Ji Hoon as the scriptwriter).
According to Kim Ha Neul, her character will appear as this strong, influential heroine. And according to the production company, Logos film, they’re very positive in casting Kim Ha Neul. From her side also has confirmed positively that Kim Ha Neul has been preparing for the role as she finds it very interesting.
“Road No.1″ will have a backdrop of Korean war 60 years ago, picturing strong promises of love and friendship, intending to impress its viewers with something so epic. What is it like to be destined to love one man, but through wounds and sacrifices, fate leads to another era beyond what the eyes have seen. They have also confirmed the male lead to be cast by So Ji Sub, which told that he fits the character beautifully.
Director Lee Jang Soo was the PD of “Stairway to Heaven”, and “the Sweet Life”, as well as “Time of Dog and Wolf”. While PD Kim Jin Min was responsible for co-directing the drama as he directed the mega-movie “Taekgukgi). The production has planned out their schedule between January-May 2010 and aiming for June next year broadcasting.
