ecs707a Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 I want to be annoyed because there's no news but I can't! I mean, he's hanging out with his grandparents. How can I be annoyed with that? Grandma's cooking: And maybe also visiting his other family members, since this is a photo with his cousin, obviously taken at someone's house, a someone who has it framed (lol, who wouldn't, right? So cute.) Okay, well, he's still alive. And cold. And I don't know what these are from. Interview? Fan meeting giveaways? Photo shoot? Old? New? I have no idea.

ecs707a Posted February 2, 2017 Author Share Posted February 2, 2017 Hey, remember all that casting speculation for the Cheese in the Trap adaptation? When he was still in the military? Well, apparently the new adaptation's casting directors remembered too. Cheese in the Trap movie courts Park Ki-woong to play Baek In-ho by javabeans | February 1, 2017 Ahh, this is a promising development: Park Ki-woong (Monster, Gaksital) is currently considering the Baek In-ho role in the Cheese in the Trap remake movie. After the tvN drama series fizzled out amid controversy and disgruntlement last year, I’ve been trying to keep hopes low and wariness on high about this movie version, but then they go and make casting choices that get me all excited and I can’t help feeling hopeful all over again. The movie secured Park Hae-jin early on to reprise his role from the drama series as Yoo Jung, the mysterious college student whose perfect specs and polished facade hide a darker inner side. Then Oh Yeon-seo (Come Back Ajusshi) was tapped to play the main character, Hong Seol, the sensitive college student through whose eyes we see the story unfold. Oh Yeon-seo has a very different vibe (bolder, more comedic) than the quieter Kim Go-eun, who played Seol in the drama—and very well, at that—but despite their differences, I can also see her working in the role, and I’m definitely very interested in seeing how she’ll interpret the character. Baek In-ho is a different can of worms altogether, especially given that the controversy surrounding the tvN series centered around this character. I thought Seo Kang-joon did a decent job in the role and liked him as In-ho—and that’s despite not liking him at all prior to Cheese in the Trap—but I definitely felt that the drama went off the rails, overemphasizing In-ho’s character in a way that felt disproportionate to his place in the story, while ignoring the more fascinating, more prominent Jung character. Frankly, I wasn’t sure that the movie would be able to cast a new In-ho who could make the role his own and not feel like a rehash of the drama… and then they went and offered the role to Park Ki-woong and suddenly I see it. In fact, I’m even a little worried now that Park Ki-woong will be too good as In-ho, because I like my second leads to be relatively pain-free—I want them to be effective for the plot and to feel sympathetic, but I don’t want them to actually endanger my love of the main romance’s ship (being burned too many times will make anyone shy away!). I was safe with Seo Kang-joon, but I’m not so sure that’ll be the case with Park. The original story mostly takes place from Seol’s perspective, and follows her life as an ordinary university student whose life starts to complicate through her interactions with an older student, Jung, whom she starts dating. She is intrigued by Jung, but is also vaguely unsettled by the glimpses of a darker, crueler underside that nobody else seems to notice. In-ho is Jung’s high school former best friend; a rift soured their relationship and makes their present-day interactions charged with hurt, anger, and tension. In-ho’s careless, rebellious attitude is a stark contrast to Jung’s controlled, principled personality, and he’s more rough and tumble than the polished hero. Park Ki-woong has that energy in spades, and always makes me feel for him even when he pushes too far and wants too much. Cheese in the Trap’s webtoon writer, Soonkki, is currently at work on the screenplay. Park Ki-woong has not confirmed taking the role; his reps stated that he would make his final decision soon. The movie plans to begin filming in late April. Via IS Plus, Sports Chosun source: dramabeans I...don't know how I feel about this yet. He would be amazing, and I can see why he was considered for this, but I worry that this adaptation still won't please fans. Or that something else will go wrong.

ecs707a Posted February 2, 2017 Author Share Posted February 2, 2017 As far as I can tell, he's still not confirmed, but this makes it sound like he is, so...I don't know. The comments are interesting regardless, so I'm posting it anyway! Park Ki Woong cast as 'Baek Inho' in movie version of 'Cheese in the Trap' Wednesday, February 01, 2017 Article: [Exclusive] Park Ki Woong to play 'Baek Inho' in the movie 'Cheese in the Trap' Source: Ilgan Sports via Naver 1. [+3,822, -116] Wow daebak, the sync is jjang 2. [+3,033, -60] Daebak ㅋㅋㅋ I'm pretty sure his name was always on the list of fanmade casts ㅋㅋㅋ Once he dyes his hair, his looks and everything will be perfect for Baek Inho ㅠㅠ 3. [+2,108, -65] Whoa, I think he'll be a good fit. Can't wait! Who's going to be the female lead? 4. [+1,437, -53] He matches well!!! 5. [+1,320, -91] So far the characters are syncing up way better than the drama version~ but can it live up to the original webtoon... 6. [+211, -6] Wow, this is some proper casting now.. I can't wait to see who's going to play Baek Inha ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 7. [+183, -5] He's actually the actor most fans have been recommending 8. [+179, -7] Crazy how in sync this is 9. [+165, -6] Netizens have always said Park Ki Woong would be perfect for Baek Inho, congrats on landing the role! 10. [+167, -7] That's a good sync right there source: netizenbuzz The response is good, which I guess should be expected, since his name's been floating around as an Inho candidate for years now, haha. Anyway, I'm still a liiiiiittle nervous about this, but I'm also excited. Especially now that I hear that it's not a strict adaptation of the existing webtoon, but more like a continuation or sequel? From the few installments I read of the webtoon back before the drama version aired, Inho is a very, very interesting character. And now I want to go read more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecs707a Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 So it's confirmed (source)! Also, many, many more articles... Time to get ready for this!

Choi February 7, 2017 Actor Park Ki Woong is the latest cast addition to the film adaptation of “Cheese in the Trap.” Previous reports stated that the actor was considering a role in the upcoming film, and on February 8, a source from the film’s production team, Mountain Movement Story, stated, “Park Ki Woong has been cast as Baek In Ho.” The upcoming film “Cheese in the Trap” is inspired by the original webtoon of the same name.
