Hurai……really happy waiting for the new drama from Kim So Yeon …..
So Yeon is the prettiest actress in Korea ….. very pretty & has a very good acting, So Yeon fighting …
Kim So yeon looks old & acts not natural. Cha Ye Ryun is prettier. It is better to make Cha Ye Ryun the female lead in this drama. I see this drama because of Cha Ye Ryun only.
