So happy we get to see a lot of the older actors. I don`t think this is the main reason. There are enough young actors to be paired on screen with younger actresses. It is a trend, I see. There are lots of older actresses, the same age as those actors who don`t have offers. It is the scripts who lack quality. It is harder to have mature actors in the lead roles. It requires a serious script, not only cute, innocent love stories. Plus, the industry, usually, tend to give the audience younger woman on screen. They say it is the demand. The male actors are more lucky to find lead roles even when they get older. But thank God we still have dramas with veteran actors in the center of the story. It is fair to have balance, dramas for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larus Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 @0ly40 dear, there is a thread for this drama. We have to announce a moderator to merge the two threads. I don`t care who will have the first page. I think It is better to look if there is another thread. I personally checked if there is a new thread in the Official drama directory and searched a few pages back to see if someone has started it already. This way, I won`t creat double pages. I saw that there is a double thread for My Husband Oh Jak Doo as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can replace the thread with the name of the other upcoming drama. Sometimes I don't find the dramas in Official drama directory, maybe because it hasn't reported on that moment. Thanks.

Previously teased main duo for OCN's latest crime thriller have now confirmed their appearances and "Children of a Lesser God" will be with us on February 2018. The drama features two clashing personalities working together to solve crime. Kang Ji-hwan plays a genius, because Dramaland cannot breathe without those, and his personality focuses solely on numbers and logic. He boasts his IQ of 167 and I bet that wins him a lot of friends. Better on the human interaction department, our heroine is a rookie with a bright personality and a special gift making her more capable than even veteran officers; she can predict people's death. The two work together to find a serial killer hiding among the homeless. read more https://www.hancinema.net/orion-s-daily-ramblings-kang-ji-hwan-and-kim-ok-bin-confirm-children-of-a-lesser-god-113304.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larus Posted December 26, 2017 Author Share Posted December 26, 2017 OCN Finalizes Cast Members For First Drama Of 2018 S. Oh December 26, 2017 OCN revealed that Kang Ji Hwan, Kim Ok Bin, Jang Gwang, and Jo Min Gi will be starring in upcoming drama “Children of the Small God” (tentative title). “Children of the Small God” will premiere after currently running show “Bad Guys” in February. The drama tells the story of two detectives who delve into the dark conspiracy of a mysterious organization. Kang Ji Hwan plays the role of elite detective Chun Jae In, who has an IQ of 167 and only believes in facts, logic, and numbers. Kim Ok Bin stars as Kim Dan, a female detective who possesses superhuman abilities to “see things she should not be seeing.” Kim Dan is a kind-hearted member of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency, who uses her intuition to discover hidden clues that even veteran detectives fail to notice. Actor Shim Hee Sub takes on the role of prosecutor Joo Ha Min. At first glance, Joo Ha Min is the perfect example of a competent prosecutor, but he hides his true colors as an antisocial monster. The character concedes to power to survive, closing deals with people in power. Actress Lee Elijah will be playing Baek Ah Hyun, the princess of a small kingdom who mysteriously goes missing. She seems to be the charitable and wise only daughter of major company Dae Han Group, but in fact, is hiding her true corrupt self. More seasoned actors such as Jang Gwang, Lee Hyo Jung, and Jo Min Gi will be playing significant roles as well. Jang Gwang plays the role of Pastor Wang from a major cult. As the religious sect leader of a deeply rooted cult, the character brought together numerous believers after curing a patient by purging them of ghosts. Pastor Wang is a powerful character who is able to influence politicians left and right. Lee Hyo Jung is cast as chairman of a major company, Baek Do Kyu, who conspires with accomplices to protect his kingdom. Lastly, actor Jo Min Gi appears as the opposition party’s presidential candidate Gook Han Joo. As a politician of 11 years after working as a prosecutor, Gook Han Joo finally becomes a presidential candidate through a chance opportunity. But his past confidential secret is about to hold him back from success. “Children of the Small God” will be directed by Kang Shin Hyo, the director of hit dramas such as “The Heirs,” “Midas,” and “Tazza.” The story is written by rookie writer Han Woo Ri, who was previously a documentary writer. The production team of the drama shared, “We are anticipating the show to write new history as the best OCN Original with its spectacular cast and crew.” The team went on to explain, “Following along OCN’s catch phase, ‘Revolutionize Character,’ ‘Children of the Small God’ will be showcasing unique characters and a fresh catharsis. Please look forward to it.” https://www.soompi.com/2017/12/26/ocn-finalizes-cast-members-first-drama-2018/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
