It’s revenge vs. revenge in Angel’s Temptation
by javabeans
Bae Soo-bin won over viewers with his appealing character in Brilliant Legacy, but takes a different turn as a revenge-seeker in SBS’s upcoming makjang drama Angel’s Temptation [천사의 유혹].
The drama comes from the writer of Wife’s Temptation and director of First Wives Club, and had initially cast Yoon So-yi in the lead role. However, Yoon dropped out citing health concerns, and Lee So-yeon (Why Did You Come to Our House) was brought in to replace her.
In Angel’s Temptation, the lead character (Lee So-yeon) seeks revenge for the ruin of her family, and marries into her enemy’s household. Her husband discovers her intent belatedly and decides on his own revenge. However, he loses everything in an accident, and resurfaces with his revenge plans intact — but with another face.
Sound familiar? However, Angel’s Temptation differs from Wife’s Temptation, in which Jang Seo-hee played two different roles. Here, the character’s two different looks will be portrayed by different actors — the “before” character will be taken on by Han Sang-jin, who is currently acting as lovable doof Sun-pung in Sons of Sol Pharmacy. Bae Soo-bin makes his appearance after the character undergoes plastic surgery.
Angel’s Temptation has also cast Kim Tae-hyun of White Lies, and will take over Dream‘s timeslot on Mondays and Tuesday nights. The drama begins filming this weekend and will premiere in October.

It sounds vaguely like War, one of Jet Li's recent-ish Hollywood films.

I love Bae Soo Bin in Brilliant Legacy.. I was hoping his next drama would be another romantic drama with him in the lead... I tend to stay away from dark dramas..
maybe next time!!!

Definitely watching this.
As much as I loved Lee Seung Ki and Han Hyo Joo, I felt that Bae Soo Bin and Moon Chae Won stole the spotlight. Both are remarkable actors and Shining Legacy proved that!

Ohhh! Count me on board XD Not too thrilled with Lee So-yeon (though I'm probably biased because I hated her character in Spring Waltz) but Han Sang-jin and Bae Soo-bin PLUS the fact that it really is a male version of Wife's Temptation makes it worth watching ^^ I'm wondering though... anyone who has any idea of how long this drama will be this time around? Hopefully it doesn't go up to a 100 episodes~

@vis This drama will be a PRIME time (1hour each ep) drama ! I am pretty confident that SBS will plan more than 16 episodes! We might be looking at 24 episodes or could be 50.
SBS is quite confident that this drama will be "THE BOMB"
Before the previous actress did not appeal to me but now I will definately watch it and I really hope With S2 doesn't drop this >.< not that they drop projecys but in case the episode numbers.

The thing about plastic surgery is that Han Sang-jin is 182 cm, Bae Soo Bin is 185 cm, and they have distinct voices. Than again, it's impossible to find a person with the identical body and voice, so those details must be ignored.
I don't think I watched much of Wife's Temptation, but this has Bae Soo Bin, so I will watch XD
But what is it with revenge and plastic surgery XD
I remember Yoo Sun in "That Woman is Scary", another drama of the lead woman getting plastic surgery and revenge. Although I don't think her reason for revenge was that big... he wasn't married to her nor did he know she was preggers when he dumped her. Just move on, woman.

I'm so happy that Yoon So-yi dropped out. I dont think she can act... :( ( sorry if I offend her fans, but it is what I think after seeing some of her work). It would be a waste if he is a co-actor with her.
Bae Soo Bin's heightis 185cm??? I don't think so, when he stood next to Lee Seung Gi, he is shorter a bit.. And I think Lee Seung Gi is about 183cm.. So I think he is just about 180 cm max.

I'm so glad Bae Soo Bin is leading in such a big drama. Finally, he's getting the recognition he deserves. His talent is too noteworthy to be playing the second fiddle all the time. I'm so happy for him. Will his skills, I know he'll do well.
I've never seen Wife's Temptation, but I heard the ratings for that show was off the charts. I hope this one will get high ratings as well, and that BSB will become even more popular and gain even more fans. *fingers crossed* lol

BSB is 180 cm tall, not 185 cm. Actually he is so skinny that he looks smaller than he really is. But when he stands out with other male actors like last year's SBS drama award, he looks like 6 feet tall.
If HSJ is "before" character, I expect he will look uglier than he really is, which makes the transformation more intense, huh?
BTW, I read this article, too. BSB is another romantic guy in this new movie.

So he Is really busy with his lead roles in two different works. Wish the best luck for him.

sounds a bit like the novel/ miniseries (from the 80's) East of Eden.
in that on the rich wife is tossed to the crocadiles -literally - has plastic surgery and returns with a new, beautiful face to get revenge on her husband who "killed" her for her money. the before and after was played by two diff people with two diff heights there, too. maybe film people and writers just don't think of things like that.
i love revenge dramas but i'm a bit wary after the dissapointing cain and abel.
hope its good.

Good to see BSB in a leading role. I have no doubt he can play the vengeful husband well.

I am so glad BSB gets to headline a drama at last. I was so disappointed when he didn't turn out to be the main guy in BL.

what the heck? can't he act evil and nice? why didn;t they let BSB act both the nice and evil roles? BSB doesn't seem to act as good as the original version (Jang seo hee)...jang seo hee acted really great (both angel and devil)....i'm expecting that he can level with her...but i dont think so...
