Posters revealed for A Man Called God

Posters are out (a whole mess of ’em!) for MBC’s upcoming A Man Called God, and I can’t decide if I think they’re cool (a la Batman Begins) or unbearably cheesy (Batman & Robin).

In the series, star Song Il-kook is back in a modern role after a couple high-profile historical ones (Jumong, Kingdom of the Wind), and he certainly looks fierce and ready for action… but the rest isn’t really working for me. This also seems an odd choice to follow weekend family drama Assorted Gems, doesn’t it?

A Man Called God is an adaptation of a manhwa of the same name (which explains the comic-book-y feel) written by deceased manhwa artist Park Bong-sung. In the revenge story, Song is a modern-day hero who takes on the enemy who killed his parents. The drama will premiere on March 6.

Also featured below are Song’s co-stars Han Chae-young, Yoo In-young, and Han Go-eun; supporting actor Kim Min-jong isn’t featured in these particular posters but will play Song’s rival for Han Chae-young’s affections. Jo Jin-woong (who played Bruce in Sol Pharmacy) will take on a villain role.

Verdict: Kinda G.I.Joe-y?

I liked the last poster (it looks beautiful!), but the other posters looks cheesy and looks like a parody of Rambo, Batman, 007, Mr. & Mrs Smith, etc...

Cheesy poster designs aside, I kind of like how he looks in those pictures where he has bangs covering his eyes and so on! He actually looks quite good. I hope he doesn't keep his hair brushed up too much, because it's a bit too Receding Hairline for me, but at least it's better than what we saw in the b&w stills!

those muscles are impressive anyway and it well be nice to see Han Chae-young in a leading role once again in a tv Drama.
Be interesting to see if they can do a 'serious' drama off a manhwa or we will end up giggling when we shouldn't. Or if they know this and try for a mix of hard core with laughs in between....perhaps the best approach if done right.

the posters - the face in the first one reminds me of that guy in Temptation of Wolf (sorry his name escape me atm)

the stylist should keep the socks black

mmm, they stay true and didnot photoshop HCY's boobs

the body reminds me of Rain, and that bothers me a bit (not in a good way)

reading the article (would never recognised the name if you did not mention it).. oooooh, Brutus is now playing a bad guy. cool! - something to look forward to..

I'm not liking his look. Goo Joon Pyo hair should stay on Goo Joon Pyo. And you can't play larger than life characters in pants that are too short. It looks more like a parody than anything else.

I think they just wanted to make him androgenic like all those japanese actors whose looks anorexic and girlish. it is interesting. i gonna have a look on this drama as I read the manga

The Rambo's style looks pretty cool, but the James Bond's style.. meh.. His face looks a lot skinnier, not in a nice way. But, nice bod though! :-)

hahaha, rain has achieved an advertiser's dream - top of mind awareness
Everytime a half nekkid pic that resembles his abs crops up, people will think of his

LOL at the comment, Gu Jun Pyo hair should stay on Gu Jun Pyo

I've only seen this guy in Terms of Endearment, he looks mighty fine there but somewhat scary in these posters. Hope the actual scenes are as scary

Maybe we should call him steam haha. But seriously, he does look a little frightening. I think I should run off before I get nightmares.
