So it may be the deadest horse ever...but I love fish-out-of-water, time-travel stuff!

Woot!! Looks good LOL :D

I'm gonna be very clear here. I want a script in concrete, and i want this guy to laugh a lot on the scenes, and behind the set too. I want him to have a nice lady, who fights a bit for him (just to change). I want that drama to have 50% ratings, even if not deserved. That won't be a first. And i want him to flash some abs.
Thanks Dramagods for extracting that puppy n°2 from ATK's Hell.
And just to be even clearer: He's MINE! Arasso?

Kdramas really love to pile on the bandwagon, don't they? From musicals last year we've gone to fusion saguek this year.

way too much fun! IM ON BOARD.

I hope this would be fun to watch like the Invincible Lee Pyung Kang.
He's got great chemistry with NSM...

Yes, we need flashy abs, more laugh and HOT KISSSSSes..
Hate what they've done to him in ATK!
He deserved so much more than that.

He used to be mine but now my hands are too busy with PSHhh and JKW ^ ^

I think the Dramaland has a stack of dramas for every genre and when one trend gets going, all others in that genre are let loose... like it's time!

At first it was music centered and now it's time traveling, about 4 dramas with similar concepts.. Please, Ji Hyun Woo, pick something fun this time, A thousand kisses was so hard to swallow!!

Is it so dead it's undead? Zombie horse FTW!

This sounds all kinds of confusing. Will be waiting for further info.

Annnnd the new trend is time travelling, just hot off the heel of vampires running around drama land. But essentially, even if this is the deadest (vampire?) horse there ever is I was all on board at the moment Vampire Prosecutor was mentioned.

The title got me, LOL. Plus VP. I'll watch and if laughter is abound, follow.
And I also find it more creative than the well beaten dead horse called doppelganger(ing).

Ji Hyun-woo and Lee Sang Woo look so similar! Love them both. Not another time travel story. It's getting boring..

LOL when it rain in Joseon it pours. Damn... why cant Bidam travels to 2012 or Lord Alcheon.

Hey VP Director man, if you've got time to direct something, why can't it be VP season 2?

But boy if they pull this off right, it could end up being a great farcical-History of salaryman type drama.

LMAO!!!!!! Queen In-hyun's man! LOL!!!

What is it with Korean dramas and having the same kind of set-up being used in multiple dramas at the same time? Obviously you have to judge each drama individually on it's own merits, but when you take a step back and see all the other stuff that's going on the effect is quite odd.

"Can you imagine how confused he is when he meets New Queen In-hyun and is all, Who the hell are you?"

Bwwwaaahahahahaha! Thank GOD Hyun-woo is shaking off the horror that was ATK and moving forward. I love this actor, he's amazing. He never fails to bring a huge grin to my face.

My man is back on tv yes finally. He always is funny, sweet, and so romantic. I cannot wait to see this and I pray it's not ruined by a closeminded writer like his last drama. I cannot wait to see this!

This sounds like Kate and Leopold to me which makes me sooooo excited.

Don't all of you know?
All Kdrama writers will meet up once a year in a secluded area to discuss the next BIG thing in kdramaland. If they can't reach a decision, they'll each write a theme on strips of paper, put those papers in a box and ask the most senior writer to draw a paper out and BAM! They now have the inspiration to write new dramas. They should have taken it easy with the soju though, that's all I'm saying.

But hey, I'm not complaining. Yes to all the wacky time-travel fantasy dramas done right.

Humm...truthfully it does sound better than Rooftop Prince. But Yoochun with his kingly hat is just too good haha.

WOOAHHHH!!!!!! PROPS TO tvN ! They are on a row! Was there first drama: birdie buddy? --Birdie buddy was alright !! But i love the flower boy series !! & this coming up! A total yeahhhh !

Okay so the idea is not particularly new, and it does seem like a rip-off but I hope it's good. Especially since it's from tvN and I love the Flower Boy series (so far). AND plus, hey, it's Vampire Prosecutor director! Yay! Omg I want this to be so good. Please, with a cherry on top?

It's quite funny how there would be a lot of Korean dramas about time-traveling fantasy, from Joseon to modern time. Many Chinese dramas and movies are also about time traveling, but from modern back to the Qing Dynasty or Han Dynasty.

All I can picture at this point is mass confusion in the middle of Seoul - actors running around in sageuk-garb, production sets overlapping, location shots with confused extras and just general mayhem. Won't there be 2 or 3 of these time travel fantasies shooting around the same time?

It might be a good time to do a tourist trip.
:)

I saw him once (I think it was last year) on "Happy Together" when he was promoting ATK and he was with other actors/actresses as well, of course. As some have said, he was so sweet (you just wanted to take him home and feed him. When I like an actor, I want to feed him and hang out and talk, ask a lot of questions. When I like an actress like Kim Sun Ah, I want to go shopping with her and hang out and eat at a nice restaurant and talk).
I was impressed by the fact that he didn't have any air and he was just himself, not trying to impress anyone or pretend to be someone or something he wasn't. He was just so sweet and so considerate. You should hear him talk about the relationship he has with his mom (swoon). OK, nuf said, I will stop, you guys know where I am going with this. I am going to stop before I get carried away (as that has been known to be happen). He did sound like a really sweet guy, and I am not usually easily swayed by celebrities. I observe them and I try to read between the lines, and I am usually accurate in what I see.

As I said 10mns ago, I am stopping now. Fingers stop typing...

So let me get this straight...

"...hero is an upright Confucian scholar whose family falls victim to a conspiracy and is killed…and then he falls for an actress? And then he’s trying to rescue Queen Inhyeon..."

Wait, so is JHW part of Song Shi-yeol's family??? Not that I'm assuming, but from the little I know, he's the most involved I know of that was executed. And I know for a fact that he along with the Yeoheung Min's (Queen Inhyeon's family clan, to which Empress Myeongseong is a distinct descendant through one of her older brothers), fell victim to the Gisa Sahwa literati purge following the movement to make Jang Hee-bin's firstborn son as Crown Prince. And I learned all of that even before "Dong-yi"...

And I guess this "New Jang Hee-bin" (新장희빈) drama thing is kind of a nod towards the drama "新還珠格格" (the current remake of 1998 hit series "還珠格格"/"Princess Returning Pearl") ...since the recent drama with the name "Jang Hee-bin" is like last 2003 (with Kim Hye-soo, Jeon Gwang-ryeol, & Park Seon-yeong)

"Queen Inhyeon’s Man" (인현왕후의 남자 / 仁顯王后의 남자)??? Most likely they'd go reformat the whole thing to "The Queen's Man", like that drama last year, or they'd go caboodling around like they did in "The King 2 Hearts", pshhh~...!

Might be a dead horse, but it sounds promising the way you gals (JB and GF) describe it. Now if they did it the way you said... :D

On quite another hand, it's Ji Hyun-woo, so I hope it's good :D

*sigh* Why? Why? Why? Don't add any more interesting dramas. I'm behind as it is. Does DST help at all in more drama watching hours? *sigh again* Nope, it doesn't help at all in anything. :(

He he he I thought my drama watching was getting more sophisticated. I watch dramas based on the pretty I could torture myself into finishing a badly written drama as long as I formed an affection with a (good looking) character. Lately I'm googling writers and directors and taking note of DB recommendations. I think this is a good barometer for which dramas to watch out for but then I would miss my self imposed torture fest.
I got excited watching an IU and Minho preview so started watching Salamander Guru, not a very good series in a critical point of view. Then found out our L aka Hyun Soo will make a cameo and I'm a goner.
See its wonderful to watch well written dramas Ojakgyo Brothers, SUFBB, Vampire Prosecutor etc. it affirms that sane writers do exist and not just a myth.
Dramas that go insane due to lack of coherent narrative, bad editing and screwy directing those could drive you up the wall and make you question your sanity, but those dramas also drive my brain to think. I could write a 300 page disertation on why DH2 was a fail. In the end watching bad dramas is not necessarily a waste of time its just a stepping stone to the more discerning drama watcher that you were meant to be.
Unfortunately I'm still in my Neanderthal phase, ohhh pretty flower boy must watch.

Aww he's so cute. I hope this drama is good. After bizarro Birth of a Rich Man and ATK he needs some good stuff.

Today is daylight savings in the US so it's kinda like time travel in real life...

oh guys...am reading this , 12 episodesin..and hope all of you here...are watching the drama. it is so good. And ji hyun woo is that good too
