Jung Yong-hwa quits Heirs citing difference of opinion

Huh, this is a surprise: Jung Yong-hwa has announced he is leaving the production of He Who Wears the Crown, Endure Its Weight: Heirs (which we’ll just call Heirs, since I think the full title is lame—look into taglines, show). Granted he’s already got a full-time job leading an idol band so it’s not like his schedule isn’t busy, but the reason being cited isn’t a packed agenda but a “difference of opinion with producers.”

I say it’s surprising because this drama is about as close as you get to a sure thing (at this stage, I mean, where we’re going purely based on past records and logline descriptions): We’ve got star writer Kim Eun-sook at the helm (having propelled slick, bantery shows like Secret Garden, A Gentleman’s Dignity, and On Air to ratings heights), and Lee Min-ho (Faith) and Park Shin-hye (Flower Boy Next Door) are signed on as the leads. True, Jung Yong-hwa’s role wasn’t the primary lead, but as the guy destined to be disappointed in love in a hot new trendy, he was primed to rake in the sympathy points.

However, according to his agency, Jung’s reps and the producers were unable to meet eye to eye on his character. It was Jung’s side that decided he would leave the show, though reportedly both sides were in mutual agreement.

I’ll be frank: I shed no tears over this news. I do like Jung Yong-hwa and CN Blue is a great poppy rock band whose songs are an instant pick-me-up. I think he can be dryly amusing, which we saw a bit of in You’ve Fallen For Me. On the other hand, he has very little dynamism to his acting, and he tends to feel flat in his line readings and emotions, so I don’t think he’s on par with either Lee Min-ho or Park Shin-hye. So if his departure means someone else gets the opportunity to really step it up and infuse some energy up in this hizzy, I’m all for it. Plus, yes, I think I can go a few more years before seeing Yong-hwa and Park Shin-hye paired together again. I know dramaland is a tiny world and repairings are hard to avoid at some point, but three times in three years is a bit much.

So instead, Jung Yong-hwa will focus on his upcoming world tour with CN Blue, then work on recording a new album with the band in the latter half of the year. He is also looking at different acting projects.

Heirs, meanwhile, is aiming for a fall premiere; October’s the tentative date.

The guy can't act. And I was really bummed out that his character as Shin Woo in You're Beautiful because all he does is just brood the entire time. I was able to look past his lack of acting chops back then since YB was my first serious K-drama ever but after watching him in Heartstrings (LOL I totally forgot that I've watched him as a main guy lead simply because he was so unmemorable) I sorta concluded that Yonghwa should totally stick to making music. Man,Heartstrings was really slow and not very memorable.

I don't think it was a matter of what was 'wrong' with the role - I think that Yong Hwa finally woke up and figured that a second lead role was a step back in his acting career and was probably written too close to his 2nd banana lead in YB. And with the same actress for the third time? No way, no matter how friendly he and PSH are in real life. Whatever project he takes on next (acting) he's got to be in a winner, if just to 'save face' with his CN Blue bandmates who have all been in high profile, successful dramas (You Who Rolled In Unexpectedly, Gentlemen's Dignity and My Daughter,Seo Young), and have done really well in their roles.
I'm glad he was sensible and rethought being involved in this drama.

I would dearly love for this to go to someone who is NOT an idol, someone who might have a smidgen of actual acting talent, but I doubt it. Knowing the trend lately, it's bound to go to some other idol who, incredibly, may have even less acting ability than Jung.

That being said, Woobin was in another of her dramas...

Woobin is currently busy filming the movie "Friends 2" so unless that movie wraps up, there is virtually no possibility he can take this role. Plus, I would like to see him take on a leading actor's role.

Best news ever.

I am a fan of CN Blue and Yong-Hwa, and this news won't change that -- but at the same time, I can be honest and say this was handled so, so poorly. I think you can be happy about the news and still admit this chain of events was very unprofessional. If there were strings attached to JYH’s acceptance of the role, FNC should have delayed announcing his participation in the show until they resolved those issues. This does not reflect well on FNC (and by extension JYH, even though it might not be his fault) — certainly not at a time when they’re trying to expand CN Blue’s profile abroad.

I have a hard time believing the World Tour was the reason for this delay. Concert dates have to be scheduled months in advance, and they knew what the schedule, more or less, was going to be. So the reasons are either 1) they really were turned off by the character (and if so, huh? Do agencies usually have that much control over characterization in a drama?) or 2) they did this because of negative netizen response (in which case, they seem very cowardly). Either way, it is not a good thing to announce his participation and make a comittment, then pull out when nothing significant like a family emergency occured in the interim.

I still like CN Blue and Yong-Hwa, have respect for them as musicians, and really hope to see them in concert this year. However, this whole incident leaves a bad taste in my mouth, so to speak. I hope FNC acts with more professionalism and better judgment in the future when making these types of decisions.

Obviously it's all speculation on my part, but I have a hard time believing the "couldn't agree on the part" story. JYH hasn't seemed so picky in the past. And let's just say that is true, that he really wanted a great role and would only play it if it met his and FNC's requirements -- if that was the case, wouldn't they make that clear to the drama producers? Wouldn't he wait until the character was fleshed out, review it, and then make a decision and accept or reject it?

This business of the agency announcing he's in, then pulling him out, is just weird to me, and doesn't seem to logically support the reason they're giving. Even in a regular job, you always ask what it entails before you accept it, no? That's what makes me think there's something else behind it.

Talk is FNC tried to pull a package deal with the production and they did not bite so they pulled him out. And they left him to take the blame by citing 'differences in opinion'. They likely used that excuse instead of 'too busy' because they are probably trying to cast him in another drama that would accept their package deal. FNC's greed and incompetence in dealing with this is really baffling. From netizen's comments, Yong Hwa's taking the brunt of this for his supposed 'arrogance' given KES is such a revered writer.

Poor boy looked gloomy yesterday during their Japan fan-meeting. He had been absolutely bursting with excitement at this opportunity, even spoiling it during his concert in Singapore.

Problem is, in the kdrama industry, you often don't have the luxury of waiting for the character to be fleshed out before signing on. It's a lot of make it up as you go. There's a good chance they sign on with just a synopsis and maybe the script of the first episode.

It's far enough in advance that they must have had some idea of what was involved. And again - if the role he was going to play was so important that he'd rather pull out if it didn't meet expectations, it was unprofessional to sign up in the first place.

0

I am really puzzled by the reason, too. Why raise everyone's eyebrows over "couldn't agree with the producer" when you could just say you were too busy, and with a tour coming up no one would think twice about it?
What are they trying to prove, by saying they got into a fight with the producers - and over his role? I mean, the thought of him having artistic sensibilities about the nuances of acting would make a pig-rabbit laugh. So I am very curious about what really went down.

I'm not really affected my this news, & I do think Faye might be an itsi bitsy harsh on him, but i think Skelly makes a valid point, and the source of why people feel disappointed from this whole thing.

I have no trouble with him, I do not know his music so no comment and as an "Idol" actor he just good enough to do the job asked of him but I would guess he had very little if any say in the way things worked out, I mean he hardly a good enough actor to complain about his role, heck at this stage its a strech to even call him an actor he so wooden. So that kind of leaves the ball in his companies court, we never know the whys I guess it could be money it could even be be billing, maybe his company wanted him billed before Park Shin-hye and Lee Min-ho? [as if]
I seen him in Running Man and he seem a nice guy, so it a pity he getting messing up this way.

At first I was ecstatic: "Yes, Oppa has a new project! With Shin Hye and Min Ho!". But then I remembered he and Shin Hye had starred in three dramas together and I was like "God, why? Don't pair them off again! Twice is enough!".

I admit I was a little bit sad when I read the news earlier, part of me wanted to see three of my favorite faces together on screen... but I think is for the best. More projects will come, eventually. Now I'm curious to see who will they cast.

Let me just say, I'm happy with the decision:
A pairing seen and reseen and him who's basically not the worst but also not the best actor.
“Difference of opinion with producers.” ??
I already have the feeling that this cast was imposed on the writer (which is famous for her ratings hits if not for her writing) and you want to tell Ma'am how to write your character? W.T.F? People would kill to work with her and there is battalions of marketable idols out there. Take it or leave it!

Possible replacers:
Shin Won Ho (crucified drama stealer needs his revenge).
JGS (that could be his rebirth role if acting is still his thing).
Park Min Woo (who's underused in the Virus).
Choi Woo Sik (who has to graduate from his status of maknae in TEN).
Kim Joo Young (maknae of Vampy).
Lee Hyun Soo (L).

Sadly, the K drama world is evolving very fast and now the cast is more and more chosen by the (J) investors and the brands used as PPL. At least if you want to have an ambitious production... Even being the chicken that lays the golden egg for SBS (which on a sidenote is underperforming with its dramas lately and then needs even more external financial help), she must have to negotiate at some point. :(

Nah... Those kind of cameos are decided at the last minute if an opportunity arises (buzz & promotion, win-win). Same for Sooyoung in AGD. Casting for one drama (and scheduling of its airing) is already difficult so imagine if they had to anticipate for the next one. K Dramaland: Here and now.

for me, the difference in opinions is actually a good thing. yes, a writer decides on the story n the characters, but the actors are the ones bringing them to life. which is why i believe actors should be allowed to voice their concerns as well. they're a package, one can't stand without the other.

otherwise, we're gonna have more cases whereby the actors (if i'm not mistaken, jung il woo was one of them) themselves did not understand and unwilling to act the characters, but were forced to just go with the flow.

I agree that the thing I dislike about him is his hairstyle and fashion sense. Both terrible! But what makes me admire him is how much he has achieved solely on his own from a very young age. That was through sheer determination, will power and talent. Some of his interviews give us an insight to his thinking. He shows tremendous intelligence and maturity.
As far as acting is concerned, he was wonderful in portraying his role in YB. He was good in Beethoven virus too. He can act in my opinion.

Unless you have some inside information no one else is aware of, you'd have to prove some credible evidence for me to believe it.

It's SBS that decides on time slots. They know that KES' work usually generates big ratings so THEY (NOT KES) arrange to air the drama when most people are available to watch it. SBS does this because advertisers will pay big money to air their commercials either before or immediately after the drama episode airs. If KES failed to write for any hit dramas, SBS would not bother to carefully plan out the schedule for the airing of the dramas. And what writer DOESN'T pick the cast? That happens with American television writers as well.

People are saying Yonghwa really wanted to do it but because the drama pds/staff didn't accept his company requests, YonGHwa company decided to take him out of the drama. It seems hey wanted to put another idol/actor of their company in the drama too together with YongHwa but the staff drama didn't accept it, there is also things about OST, they must requested that had a OST with CNBLUE or Yonghwa and again they were rejected by the writer and staff drama.

You can see that most of times an actor is casted someone from their company is also casted as a side role.

Thank you, JB!

As Yonghwa fans, my reaction is torn in half.
I'm sad because:
1. I will not get weekly dose of Yonghwa on small screen.
2. I'm worry about the effect of this decision toward his career in drama circle. I think rejecting highly influential script writer because he doesn't like the script, then announcing that reason to the world is not considered as good PR move. Even right now he get some extent of backlash because of this T.T

On the bright side, I'm happy because:
1. He doesn't need to juggle between drama-filming and world tour.
2. Without Yonghwa-Shinhye rumor circulating the drama, viewers will be able to concentrate more into the OTP.
3. He doesn't get backlash for repeat pairing with Shinhye.
4. I have a hope that he will get better role and drama next time.

I don't think his drama career will be affected. He is too popular and well liked. People will talk regardless of what he does or does not do.
It's just such a pity to see a young, talented, hardworking wonderful person having to go through all this for whatever reasons....that really does not matter. Looking at the positive side.....he will be a stronger person for having experienced it. Knowing a little of his personality, he will bounce back.

I posted a comment and the board ate it, so I'm not sure if I can remember what I was going to say. But here goes: Yong-Hwa is talented and hard-working, and I'm sure there will be no long-term repercussions for his career. But there may be some. Frankly, if I was a drama producer/director, I would think twice before hiring him because of this incident. I am responsible for hiring as part of my job, and if I knew someone had made a committment and then backed out like that, I would really question their reliability.

I don't know if it's FNC or Yong-Hwa responsible for this, but whoever is did something unprofessional and short-sighted. If the character was a deal-breaker for them, they should have insisted on knowing more details BEFORE agreeing to take it and issuing an official announcement from his agency.

I still like JYH and CN Blue. But just because you admire someone's talent and are a fan does not mean you have to blindly support every decision they make. Issuing an announcement before knowing the details was wrong. As I said before, I hope they show better judgment in the future. Not saying this to be mean -- saying it for *his* sake.

And moving on . . .I'm still looking forward to the drama, and am excited to see the LMH-PSH pairing. Heirs fighting!

Your comment make my sad reason no. 2 growing bigger and bigger. :(
I'm agree with you, though, about the lack of professionalism from Yonghwa/FNC's side. From business POV, drama makers couldn't care less about who is the real decision maker behind all of this. For them, artists and their agency are basically one unit. But maybe because I'm not a businessman and just a regular fan, my concern lies more with the artist. If there is an indication that the artist get a backlash because of other people's wrong decision, then what else can I do as a fan except support him?
As I said, my reaction is torn in a half. But I'm still hoping the best for him

@kaka - I don't think you have to be too worried. You know how it is -- everybody talks, but it blows over soon. He didn't steal or break the law or anything. I was just giving my 2c on the whole incident.

And just to make it clear, I am an unabashed fan and really want to see JYH and CN Blue do well. I was trying to explain a perspective on how this maybe was not handled very well, and that disappoints me because I'm a fan and have high expectations for them. I have a higher standard for him because he's handled his career really well so far. But, as always, Yong-Hwa and CN Blue fighting! :)

You are absolutely right about the whole set up being less than professional. His agency should have foreseen the pitfalls of commitment without seeing the script or not knowing the character to be played. There is more than meets the eye. We can only conjecture to our hearts desire without knowing what went behind the scenes.
I somehow have the feeling that it was a mutual decision between all parties concerned and thats one reason he will not face repercussions. Also, he has worked for SBS a lot of time. In fact he has done that with all the stations and has a good standing with all.
The only truth is that JYH backing out of a commitment that he was excited about. I feel empathy towards him for being in this position just like i would for any other young person in this situation. I really wish him well.
I am looking forward to seeing this drama too. Everyone will be more focused towards the pairing of LMH and Shinhye. Do hope her character in the drama is a good one. I am still excited about it. It's just that this incident does leave an unpleasant effect.

Not sad here (love Yong-hwa, but there are a few reasons), but I am wondering what the "backlash" will be of his joining and departure being this way.

I'm glad he's pulled out, i didn't want to see him and Shin Hye together again anyway. I do agree that it maybe wasn't the smartest move to agree to the show and have that publicised, and then pull out because you didn't like the character. But i do wonder if it was just another role like the ones he's played, and he didn't want to play that role again.

He really can't act very well so I think he should just stick to leading CN Blue because that is something he is really good at.

Choi Woo-Shik is a bloody brilliant choice.

So is JGS only because i want to see that. Werent he and LMH up for Gu Jun-Pyo?

If the 2nd lead is supposed to be slightly evil may I suggest
Seo In Guk
Choi Daniel
Joo Won

Or just because a girl can dream and i would love to see these three actors on screen together Lee Jun-Ki.

I know none of these fools are 2nd leads, and are leading men, but i dont care. My math adds up to being awesome performances.

As far as I know (and that could change), character is a high schooler: They are going to cast someone young or young looking. I like Daniel Choi but he is too old now (& LMH is already a stretch imo).

lol LMH did not look like a teenager even in BBF, I can't even imagine how they'll try to pass him off for one now. I mean, I like the man but he does look older than his age, which is usually to his advantage.

Darn. Hope it changes because I can suspend my disbelief for other worldly things, but not for a high schooler being involved in chaebol activities. College/Uni yes, hs no. Because it is unbelievable that your mom may still pack your lunch, you need zit cream, and you have the stress of running mommy/daddy's company.

Yoo ah in will always look good as a high schooler, but his acting is just too good to be the second lead, and he's doing jang ok jung, so maybe no drama in the mean time

I think JGS or Joo Won would be impossible because once actors cross the distance to main lead they won't accept going back will they??? Is that common? The only example of this I remember is Jung Il Woo going from FBRS to Moon. Any others?

i guess you are wrong, i read his filmografi n watch many of his drama but jae hee only act as second role in Jang ok jung. In May queen he's the lead not Kim jae won if you say he's the second lead it means you never watch the story. I guess there's something special about that role untill he accept that.
There's actor take many second role but he always get attention for his acting more than the lead. he's kim sung so

Sung Joon... from Shut Up Flower Boy Band and Can We Get Married, to Gu Family Book where he isn't even the actual second lead.

And Han Chae-young in Ad Genius Lee Tae-baek.

@Lixie

I think that mentality is changing and I'm glad. I sometimes find the second lead roles in a lot of dramas to be more meaty than the lead. The two leads in Gentle Man's Dignity were the least interesting in that drama. Also being a lead doesn't mean you become the most popular in a drama in a lot of cases. Like the playboy in Gentle Man's Dignity was the most popular with people and he even became more known because of that drama even though he was the lead in many dramas before. Had he acted pompous and not take that role, he won't be as well known as he is now.

Dix I'd say the 4 guys in GD were the leads, I know one of them had a bit more time but I would still consider all 4 to be the leads.

Seo In Guk as replacement? Or, Sung Joon? They are all tall, dark and handsome - perfect for JYH's fill-in!
