Family of five scams the nation in The Great Show
by tineybeanie
This drama looks absolutely hilarious! Song Seung-heon (Player) stars as a fallen politician and the father of four in the new political comedy The Great Show.
In the latest teaser, Song Seung-heon’s banner reads: “A young politician’s thoughtful politics. Candidate 2, Wie Dae-han. Working man for the people in their thirties.” Other candidates pander on the streets, promising everything from protecting the weak to jobs for everyone.
Song Seung-heon’s voice narrates that for him, these four children are his special election strategy. An article with the headline “Immoral former congressman Wie Dae-han becomes nation’s father” flashes onscreen. And the trailer closes out with a warm-looking family appearance at a grocery store, while Song Seung-heon announces that this is the beginning of a family cosplay scam against the nation.
Noh Jung-eui (Kill It) plays the breadwinner and eldest sister of four siblings. She agrees to pretend to be Song Seung-heon’s daughter for the sake of her younger brothers and sister. The other siblings are played by Jung Joon-won (100 Days My Prince), Kim Joon, and Park Ye-na (Buamdong Revenge Club).
From the vibes and storyline, I feel like The Great Show would be what would happen if My Fellow Citizens had a part two. With its wacky scam premise, I’m hoping that The Great Show is going to be a funny family comedy that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
tvN’s upcoming Monday-Tuesday drama The Great Show will begin on August 26.

Ooh, this looks like fun! Noh Jung-eui broke my heart when she died young in Live Up to Your Name, glad to see her in what seems to be a meaty role. Loved Black (minus the ending) and enjoyed Player (Kim Won-hae survived the car of doom!) so will be waiting for this.

Oh, so that's where the kids come from! Now this sounds a lot funnier. SSH as a scam artist will be great.

I hope we'll get a good laugh with this show and that it will end up becoming a fun and heartwarming drama where Song Seung-heon gets attached to the kids. HAHAHAHA
Also, please give us a great villain, preferably a woman, someone like Hooja from My Fellow Citizens.

I thought the children would be younger. But I do know that teens can cause their own havoc. 😄

To be honest, any show with Song Seung-heon in it means that I will definitely check it out. He does both comedy and evil well.
