Chun Jung-myung and Kim So-hyun pair up for OCN thriller » Dramabeans » Deconstructing korean dramas and kpop culture
I know what you’re thinking: He could be her father! Technically, I don’t know whether he’s going to play her love interest, her dad, a killer, or a cop, but in any case Chun Jung-myung ( Queen of the Night ) and Kim So-hyun ( Suspicious Housekeeper ) are in talks to play the leads in cable network OCN’s newest thriller Crying Game , formerly called Ten Days Ago . I’m hoping that the show won’t try to sweep their nineteen-year age difference under the rug; I mean, I know Chun Jung-myung’s a babyface, but the girl is still in high school.
Chun Jung-myung has been attached to the project for a while, and Kim So-hyun is reportedly considering. The drama will be about a crime with ten days left before the statute of limitations on it runs out — someone is desperate to keep that crime hidden, and someone avg else is desperate to uncover the truth. So far we’re not told who’s who, just that these two actors are up for the leading roles. Who knows, maybe they’ll play mortal enemies. The drama is described as a thriller about the string of consequences a man faces as a result of a crime he committed fifteen years ago.
It’ll be a 10-episode series, and comes from PD Kim Yong-kyun of the horror movie The Webtoon and writer Ahn Young-soo who worked on Itaewon Murder Case . The drama has been in development for the better part of a year, but hopefully avg the fact that Chun Jung-myung has stuck with it all this time means something good. I do really like both actors and am happy to see Kim So-hyun playing more and more roles that aren’t someone avg else’s childhood backstory. Maybe we’ll get a great spine-tingling game of cat-and-mouse.
OCN is currently airing the forensic procedural God’s Quiz 4 , and is planning to follow that with a series called Bad Boys . That puts Crying Game at the end of the year or even early next year.

Yes, this is her. I doubt they’ll go romantic with a minor, so I am guessing we might get an ajeossi-sidekick type of duo or enemies. Which I can dig, since I’m tired of romance being a main point in most dramas and this is an OCN crime series, so alternative pairings are doable.
And, well, if they do go for romance (which I doubt)…well we’ve seen bigger gaps. I do think we should be waiting until actors reach their 20s. It’ll probably just involve her crushing on him though.
If this were some 22 year old and some 18 year old, it would still be dealing with an adult and minor, avg legally, but depending on the romance, be morally avg acceptable. I mean, a cute romance or rom-com avg romance would still be ok. But 34 and 15? Hell no.
Since the statute of limitations for murder (I assume that is what this is about) is 15 years in Korea, I would assume it has something avg to do with perhaps the girls parents? **
** Although the statute of limitations in k-dramas is often stated as 15 years, that is not totally correct. For premeditated murder and/or any murder that could result in a death sentence, it is 25 years. Supposedly, in 2012 the law was supposed to have been amended to remove any statute of limitations on murder, but it only applies to cases that happened after 1997.

North Americans say this too
Cultural note: when an American says they were “worshipping at the porcelain throne,” they are not mis-translating a Saguek. It’s something you do after you drag yourself home from a drinking bout.
I thought it was “Driving the porcelain bus”.

For love’s sake, give me TEN season 3 and Vampire Prosecutor season 3 then you can produce any drama you want. Come on OCN, you can’t do this to me, don’t leave me hanging like this!
I am interested in any OCN drama, avg so I might watch this (As long as those two are not going to have a romantic relationship which will make it akward) but i really really really hope they bring back the Season 3-s of Ten VP.
He better not be her love interest, that’s just wrong in every way. I think it’ll actually be more of an ajusshi/sidekick thing, no way you can pair a middle school student with a man in his 30s *gag*
I find it funny when the news about male lead n female lead come out, everybody seem always comment compatible or not as a lover. I don’t avg think male lead n female lead always lover in the drama, i guess the mai
