I like the cast, but the story.....urgh....siblings separated, re-unite, one is a nice guy, the other is baddie, both fall for the same girl. Well I guess it doesn't sound too bad since one of them is a killer and I've always wanted to see JRW in a serious drama so I guess I'll probably see it anyway Smile

Nice to see So Ji Sup come back from the stint in army.

Interesting idea with All-Star cast. Looking forward to it.

Unfortunately, this project is on hiatus and may be cancelled. Bleh. No So Ji Sub for 2008? Sad

Actor Ji Jin Hee has pulled out as may Jung Ryeo Won, but I think So Ji Sup still remains! Apparently the filming has just been pushed back a few months.

^No the drama is nowhere near airing. It may air in April but who knows what is going to happen. Sad

I hope Jung Ryeo Won doesn't pull out. She's my favorite Korean actress. I'm glad that So Ji Sup is still doing this drama. I will probably return my Korean drama watching with this drama and Illjimae. Big Smile

I really hope JRW doesn't pull out either, since she's pretty much the only reason I would want to watch this. I kinda miss her character from MNIKSS.

After hearing that Song Seung Hun is going to do East of Eden, I've lost a lot of enthusiasm for Cain and Abel. The fact you have that, Illjmae, and maybe another Kwong Sang Woo series coming out at the same time . . . I don't know, is it worth watching a show that's based on a music video that everybody's already seen? I mean, don't we know how it all ends anyway?

That said, I'd like to see JRW in a role where she bridges West and East, such as this. I think her biggest appeal (besides her ability to cry until hyperventilation, admirable that . . . and make Daniel Henney feel like a real actor yayyy!!!) is that she really shows how people can change between different cultures, or in different social circles. Even the way you feel kinda changes when you express it in a different language.
