God’s Quiz 4 adds idols Donghae and Jae-kyung to cast
by awcoconuts
After a two-year hiatus, God’s Quiz is back! The fourth season of OCN’s medical crime investigation series will return in May, with Donghae (full name: Lee Dong-hae) of Super Junior and Jae-kyung (full name: Kim Jae-kyung) of Rainbow adding fresh blood to the regular cast.
Original cast members Ryu Deok-hwan (Faith) and Yoon Joo-hee (Warm Words, Iris 2) are also on board for the new season. Yoon Joo-hee’s character, who left to study abroad at the end of season 2, returns to work alongside Ryu Deok-hwan’s top medical examiner, and the big question is, will they rekindle their relationship?
God’s Quiz launched in 2010 and has retained a loyal following; the show revolves around medical examiners researching suspicious deaths and unraveling mysteries involving rare diseases. Donghae (Panda and Hedgehog) joins the office of elite doctors as a newbie, while Jae-kyung (JTBC’s drama special Monster) plays a skilled researcher scouted by management. Donghae falls for Jae-kyung’s character, who, in a meta reference, was originally part of a popular girl band. Ha, why not take it a step further and have both be former members of idol groups?
Writer Park Jae-bum, who wrote seasons 1 through 3, has stepped back a bit (he’ll be credited as Creator), and Park Dae-sung and Lee Dae-il, newcomers who won OCN’s Original TV Series Screenplay Contest in 2012, will collaborate on the script for season 4. Lee Min-woo (Marriage Plot) will direct, and God’s Quiz 4 will air on Sundays at 11pm beginning May 18th.

Huh?
I just finished all three sesons in only 10 days just 5 minutes ago, and I come here, and what I see: New season is coming up...
And I just started to panic becouse I did not want this to end.
I am sitting here grinning like the chesire cat.

I was all like:
Don't you dare end it this way! No, don't!!! Oh, Pleeeeeaaaahhhhhse...
Now I (and all of us...) need to wait "only" two months to see how this will turn out.
Well, at least we have a date now.

But the main protagonist died??!! or didn't he? I was so sad because I thought he died and there wouldn't be a new season... but who cares? good for us if season 3 is coming. But I wonder if they will be able to keep it as good.. I loved this drama, even more than vampire prosecutor I think.

I couldn't be more excited! RDH won me over with his acting chops and charisma! Such a wonderful actor.
In an earlier post a bunch of posters were lamenting if there was a VP3 in the pipeline. I was in the same boat until GQ4 was announced!! YAYYY!!

Donghae! Love him, but has he done anything other then Panda and Hedgehog? Because that was downright awful.

He was in a Taiwanese (?) drama a couple years ago called Skip Beat with Choi Siwon (also of Super Junior). I didn't watch it though. It was based on the Japanese manga, which I love. It's hilarious!

tbh, his acting in Skip Beat is better than Choi Siwon. (dodges quickly)

blegh!
March 25, 2014 at 6:09 PM
Donghae wasn't really bad in hedgehog. It's just that the whole drama sucked, plotwise and direction wise.
I liked his expressions in the skip beat drama. Hopefully he'll do a better job this time.

He also played Choi Jim-hyuk's brother in It's Okay, Daddy's Girl which wasn't really bad, it just had pacing issues.

Though not quite as bad a case of withdrawal as Sherlock, God's Quiz also had me jonesing.
Funny, they're both detectives of sorts.

YES!!!!
I thought after what happened to Han Jin Woo at the end of season 3, that it... the end
I guess he survived *does happy dance*
But if YJH returns, isn't it mean that no Ahn Nae Sang? I like their paring too...

From the reactions here, I guess I should add the GQ series to my watch list. I liked the lead actor in Faith as the king so I am in.

I've seen this show referenced for three years on Dramabeans, and until a few months ago, I thought it was an actual quiz show. Live and learn.

If the mini-cutie is back and his tall-cutie comes with, I don't need much else. I am a little worried about the switch in creators though. That said, the series was getting a bit convoluted in its main plot, so maybe the new ones can inject some freshness into the whole thing. But really, mini-cutie and miss cutie are good enough for now.

As a Rainbow fan, it's nice to see Jaekyung. I never actually watched the show despite hearing about it, but I guess I'll give it a shot. Also, going into the medical field gives me an educational excuse to watch XD
Though it's unfortunate, I was hoping for a comeback from Rainbow but with this I doubt it.

I love God's Quiz!! And yes I blame the fangirling on RDH.
...and has it been two years already since GQ3? Hm. Was just waiting for GQ4 to be announced because, seriously, what kind of season ending was S3?? (Also I was sad that YJH had been written out of S3 - had been rooting for both of them in S1 and S2!)
Basically, can't wait! This news just made my day :)

Season 4 has been planned since August 2013 and I've been waiting and following news this whole time. I'm disappointed in the idol cast. I don't mind Donghae too much because he is faaaar some the worst idols out there so I can survive him but I haven't seen Jaekyung yet. I will just get prepared to make weird faces on her screen time and if I don't then good.

It's a bit disappointing but I can't bring myself to care too much - I'm just happy that a 4th season is actually happening, AND that Yoon Joo-Hee is BACK - seriously their relationship was the best. The other characters are all side characters anyway.

I'm quite excited about this! and I think Donghae would do well because he is hardworking and with that kind of attitude, I'm sure any lack of acting experience can be improved through this!
