Found this news of Jung Man-shik and Ji Seung-hyun dated 12th June, so the script reading was done earlier.

I heard script reading was on 9th June.

Now she's cast as JH daughter.  Another movie resume to build on. 

This girl is talented and also knows how to choose her projects. Last year she was also in a movie with Kim Hye Soo and was praised for her performance. If she continues to be consistent then I believe she can be huge in future.

I too want him to have a new drama. He is generally very reckless in choosing the projects. I wish his next role is not heroic but of a regular person. I don't want him to be covered in blood, filth and using physical stregth to solve the problems. Just want to see him as a sweet, sensitive and simple person as he looks in real life. I'm afraid he is being typecasted and he rarely gets to play a likable character. I wish he could play someone who can tug viewer's hearts. He has the capability so hope someone can utilize him.

I was thinking JH for the k version of Million Stars Falling From The Sky but that's a dark character (by Kimura Takuya)

 But yeah, I get what you mean and I'm with you. The last 3 dramas he's characters  rough, cold, aloof, no emotions. Maybe time to switch and find the drama that also showcase his  other side again.  So cool and funny in Fated to Love You..

@Prettysup I'm excited to see him Swordsman. The newcomer Na Ya, the article seems to in full praise of her. Even expecting to be good  even comparing to Ha JiWon, Son Ye Jin. Like feisty8001 said, hope she's good as well.   So two female cast. Talented Kim Hyun Soo, and now Na Ya. I'm gonna expect this movie to be good.  Thanks for update.  Oh, hope for new drama too.

Thanks for welcoming me here but actually it was supposed to be 172th comment(with this profile). I don't know what happened but all of my previous comments are named under name 'Guest' now. This is my second reply to you.

Yes I'm dying to see his human side in dramas/movie. I hate seeing him in poor quality work.

Don't take it seriously. They always over-praise new actresses.

 Just reading the article gets me excited. I know it's for 2018 but still. Thank you updates, prettysup <3

I wanna see good sword fights and exhibition along terrific impressive acting. I know I will. If you happen to see the teaser for 2018 drama historical drama  "The Fame's Daughter" ( I'm also waiting to watch) it has a wuxia feel to it, you see  sword fights. Flying in the air and all that (check the c-drama thread, you'll see it)  Hoping to see  excellent Jang Hyuk skill for the movie.
