Hmm sounds intriguing. So SMA's drama will air in October now? We'll see who'll win between SMA and SHK. My bet is on SHK because of the budget and the simple plot of SMA's drama, but you never know.

Thanks for the news ! I miss Kang-to-ahhhh !!! I hope he accepts the offer and the project will be as interesting as it sounds :)

wow.. great news.. joo won and kim tae hee will make such a lovely couple.. hopefully they confirm it

The plot sounds interesting. It will be melo and intense drama. I'm okay with Joo Won playing in melodrama but Kim Tae Hee, her actings is fit in rom-com. I prefer Han Hyo Joo.

What happen to k-drama these years? They always give noona-romance. I'm not complaining but I prefer the similar age romance.

And I don't think Kim Tae Hee will take this offer. The girl seems really consider about the level of his co-stars.

I'm so excited for this!! I miss watching Kim Tae hee on small screen <3

So, they put Joo Won to play a young doctor who did illegal practice to compete with MBC's Scholar who walks the night and KBS's National Assembly? Wew, it seems would be a heavy competition.

Well, I think Joo Won in darker and meatier role is unrivalled (Gaksitaaaaal!). If Joo Won say yes, it's gonna be totally awesome.

Yeah, the competition will be crazy in this time slot. But I miss Joo Won in dramas very much so I’m very excited to see him coming back. The story looks interesting, hope the script is good.

when i read the news about this drama in dramabean some times ago i hope joo won is the lead n now what i expect almost become reality, i'm sure joo won will take this role
for kim ta hee role i hope it suit her, she's not really good actress but as long the role suit her it will be good

I really think Joo Won should stick with these kind of roles. His comedies have been oh-so-terrible and roles that require intensity is more up his alley.

The pairing sounds interesting. It's yet another noona romance but I can see it working out well as long as the writing-PD combo holds up. If this is the final cast, count me intrigued.

Yong pal reminds me of white old truck in 2D1N season 3.

The role seem to fit Joo Won to a tee and I really hope for him to return to dramaland soon..So please confirm this role! As for KTH, really hope the role fits her, she's so far a hit and miss so have to wait till we know more about the role..

Omo.. this news just made my day coz i thought joo won has confirmed. Then i read the comments and realize i skipped some important details.

i hope he really take this role. i still cannot move on from him after cantabille. i've been watching 2d1n and his movie in the meantime, but still not enough..

OMG!!! Yes!!! Please Joo Won, take it!

Noooooooo!! Not Kim Tae-hee! Have NOT warmed up to her at all. NO.

Kim tae hee is soo beautiful and her acting isn't that bad compared to say han ga in..who's looks and talent are overrated in my opinon..she is so likeable in my opinion I like her personality in real life..but I don't know about this pairing I like them both on their own but together?not so sure.

KTH is as her best when she stars with actors who have similar level of skill like her, ie: Song Seung Hun ( they were great in MP)

However, when she acts with better actors like YAI or LBH, the disparity of their acting show. It makes her weakness more visible.

I love Joo Won.. He is so talented and versatile, but I certainly also prefer him in melo. I never thought of Kim Tae-Hee as a good actress, but she is beautiful and at least she does not over-act. And she does have a following. I would not watch a drama just for her, but she will not keep me from watching a drama I am interested in. She is easy on the eyes and pleasant.

I must be among the minority as I liked his comedy. While I agree that the intensity of the more dramatic roles was great, I liked his dry humor. And my only criticism of Level 7 was his leading lady. I found it difficult to see her continuing to play the ingenue role and even the "young" hair styling did not help.

Well, I don't know -- the acting styles of these two seem pretty different. And I am very mixed on Joo Won -- liked him in Baker King and Good Doctor; disliked Tomorrow's Cantabile and Gaksital so much that his performances in them were just irrelevant to me.

Yes yes yes! I'm hoping they both sign on. This drama sounds super interesting and will be a great comeback. I miss Kim tae hee so much and Joo won is a double +++

Joo Won ah, palli wa!!! Missing him in dramaland. Seems to be an interesting story. Hope it comes through for both of them.

Excited for joo won drama comeback...like him in gaksital and good doctor but not really tend to like kim tae hee.her acting not really convince me.

I never liked Joo won and Kim tae hee acting but if they confirmed, i will surely check out this drama to see whether they're improved or not.

I miss Joo won – I would love to see him in anything.

I like Kim Tae Hee. KTH & Joo won did not pair in drama "Level 7 Civil Servant".
I miss you KTH. Please choose the right director, writer to work with. joo won is ok. I am curious when KTH will pair with won bin in drama?

Wud the pairing of Joo Won (Bridal Mask & Good Doctor) and Jin Se Yeon (Bridal Mask & Dr Stranger). Love to see them in another drama...

I hope he was ji Chang wook and Kim tae hee together it will be so nice
