Song Seung Heon In Talks To Star In New tvN Drama

 

A source from his agency Better Ent stated on February 19, “Song Seung Heon has received a role offer for tvN’s new drama ‘The Great Show’ (literal title) and is positively looking over it.”

Song Seung Heon was offered the role of Wi Dae Han, a former member of the National Assembly.
At the age of 32, Wi Dae Han entered the 19th National Assembly as a youth representative. He lost in the 20th general elections and led a failed political career ever since.
While he has every quality of a star politician like quick wit, eloquence, and good looks, his hot-tempered personality always brings him down in the most decisive moments.

The drama will center around Wi Dae Han and his three other problematic siblings.
It will portray the way the four imperfect individuals come together and unite as a family in a comedic yet touching way. Viewers will be able to enjoy the general theme of family and romance with hints of satire.

“The Great Show” will be Song Seung Heon’s first drama in a year since OCN’s “Player” and is scheduled for broadcast during the second half of 2019.

So there will be kids in the drama? Is it a bit romcom? I wonder if there will be no action scenes.

Song Seung Heon, Lee Sun Bin, Im Joo Hwan, And More Get Pumped For “The Great Show” During Script Reading

tvN’s upcoming drama “The Great Show” has provided a first look at the stars and their characters in a behind-the-scenes video of the script reading!

 

“The Great Show” tells the story of a former member of the National Assembly named Wi Dae Han, as he tries to get himself back in the Assembly while living with a family of four problematic siblings.

 

The newly released clip focuses on the four main leads, played by Song Seung Heon, Lee Sun Bin, Im Joo Hwan, and Noh Jung Ui.

 

Song Seung Heon passionately acted out his role as Wi Dae Han, a former member of the National Assembly who currently works as a designated driver. When he wasn’t reading his lines, however, he had his attention fixed to his child actor co-stars, who play the two youngest siblings of the four that unexpectedly come into his life. He complimented their cuteness and even pulled out his phone to record them during the script reading.

 

Lee Sun Bin easily slipped into character as Jung Soo Hyun, Wi Dae Han’s junior during university and the main writer of a TV program. She stated that she resembles her character in real life, saying, “When I was preparing for the drama, rather than thinking that I had to practice using her tone, I found that her personality and way of speaking is quite similar to mine.”

 

Im Joo Hwan, who plays conservative lawyer Kang Jun Ho, further showed off his unique chemistry with Lee Sun Bin. He earned awed reactions from the room with his blunt expression of romantic interest in Lee Sun Bin’s character.

 

On the other hand, Noh Jung Ui brought bright, fresh energy to the script reading. The young actress plays Han Da Jung, the eldest of the four siblings who holds her family together. She said about her role, “I’ve always played the youngest character, but now I’m playing an older sister role. It feels a bit like I’ve been strapped with really accident-prone kids, but I’m happy because I’ve fulfilled my dream of having siblings.”

 

“The Great Show” premieres on August 26 at 9:30 p.m. KST.

Song Seung Heon, Lee Sun Bin, And More Work Hard And Play Hard In “The Great Show” Set Video

On August 7, tvN shared a behind-the-scenes video from the first filming of their upcoming drama “The Great Show.”

 

“The Great Show” is about a former National Assembly member named Wi Dae Han (Song Seung Heon), who is trying to get back into the Assembly when he suddenly becomes surrogate father to a family of four problematic siblings. Lee Sun Bin plays Jung Soo Hyun, Wi Dae Han’s college junior and a TV show writer, Im Joo Hwan plays Kang Jun Ho, a conservative lawyer, and Noh Jung Ui plays the eldest of the four siblings.

 

The behind-the-scenes video shows Song Seung Heon throwing himself into his role, whether it’s volunteering for a political campaign and putting up banners or showing his character’s relaxed, disheveled appearance at home.

 

Lee Sun Bin brings an intense positive energy to every set she’s on, making everyone laugh with her antics and bursting into laughter herself as soon as the cameras turn off. When Song Seung Heon teases her about her line delivery, she pretends to kick him in response. In one scene, the director jokes, “It’s chaotic when [Lee Sun Bin] comes.”

 

Im Joo Hwan and Song Seung Heon, on the other hand, are still a little awkward with each other. When Im Joo Hwan stares after Song Seung Heon after the end of their scene, Song Seung Heon stops and jokes to the director, “Is he going to keep looking at me? Because I feel a little…”

 

Noh Jung Ui said, “It feels like we’ve already been filming for 3-4 months. The atmosphere on set is comfortable and friendly.” In one scene, Noh Jung Ui gets actually scared when Song Seung Heon acts out a startled reaction to the phone. With the kids who play her younger siblings, however, she encourages them while acting and plays around with them when the cameras are off.

 

Check out the behind-the-scenes video below!

 

“The Great Show” premieres on August 26 at 9:30 p.m. KST.

Song Seung-heon preps for The Great Show with Im Joo-hwan, Lee Sun-bin
by tccolb

New character stills have been released for tvN’s upcoming The Great Show starring Song Seung-heon (Player), Im Joo-hwan (Different Dreams) and Lee Sun-bin (Sketch).

 

 

The story of The Great Show follows Song Seung-heon’s character, Wie Dae-han, who once sat as part of the National Assembly. In the early days of his career, he had been more honorable and worked towards creating a just society. But circumstances with his family background lost him favor and he was forced to give up his political career. However, when 4 troublesome children suddenly show up at his doorstep, claiming to be his sons and daughters, he decides this is his second chance to clean-up his reputation by taking on the role and image of a father. And he puts on a great show, spinning the situation to his favor, in order to re-enter the political field.

 

In the newly released stills of Song Seung-heon, we get a peek at this image flip that the character makes.  In the first photo, he reads a newspaper on a plane, polished and suited, and pinned with the special gold badge worn by members of the National Assembly. And, in the second photo, he sits in front of a teller, dressed casually and having the appearance of a humble everyday man and father.

 

 

In contrast to Song Seung-heon’s work-from-the-bottom-up character, Im Joo-hwan plays a lawyer and social commentator by the name of Kang Joon-ho who was born with a silver spoon. In his photos, we see Im dressed in a modest suit and in commentator mode for a show.

 

Ranging on the conservative side, Im Joo-hwan’s Kang Joon-ho is a rational thinker, well-informed on a wide scope of topics, and is eloquent and orderly in the way he speaks. His normal demeanor is gentle and warm, but he also has a tendency to become more assertive in matters of love and war. This is particularly evident with his long rival of 21 years – Wie Dae-han – and their rivalry is further complicated, of course, by Lee Sun-bin playing Jang Soo-hyun.

 

 

Lee Sun-bin’s Jang Soo-hyun is the head writer for a show on social issues and the released stills feature her on the scene at work.

 

She takes pride in being great at her job, is a perfectionist, and continues to work hard in her career. She is still very much human, though, and her fiery personality often leads to confrontations. But her life is thrown off course when she unexpectedly runs into her first love – Wie Dae-han – because she never wanted to see him again. And, against her will, she becomes entangled with both him and the mysterious 4 children.

 

Directing for the drama is PD Shin Yong-hui (Cross, Tunnel) and writing will be done by Seol Joon-seok (Ad Genius Lee Tae-baek).

 

On one hand, Im Joo-hwan in another drama! Yay! On the other, I don’t know if my heart can take him in another second lead role this year. *Tears*.

 

tvN’s new Monday-Tuesday drama The Great Show is currently set to air on August 26, following Designated Survivor: 60 Days.

“The Great Show” Teases Fun Family Charade In New Posters Ahead Of Premiere
 

 

tvN’s upcoming Monday-Tuesday drama “The Great Show” has released its main posters ahead of the drama’s premiere!

 

“The Great Show” will tell the story of former National Assembly member Wi Dae Han (played by Song Seung Heon) as he tries to get back into office while also finding himself the caretaker of four mischievous siblings. Wi Dae Han needs something to appear more relatable to the public, and taking in the four kids seems to be his ticket to getting elected. However, Han Da Jung (Noh Jung Ui), Han Tak (Jung Joon Won), Han Tae Poong (Kim Jun), and Han Song Yi (Park Ye Na) may be more than what he bargained for. Luckily, he has the help of Jung Soo Hyun (played by Lee Sun Bin) who steps up to take on a motherly role.

 

The first poster shows the four siblings sitting around Wi Dae Han’s election poster. They’ve spruced it up a little, with youngest siblings Tae Poong and Song Yi adding pink ribbons, stickers, and cat whiskers. Da Jung is trying to stop them as the oldest of the four, while Tak is looking sullen and doesn’t want to get involved. Meanwhile, the other poster shows Wi Dae Han standing at the podium in front of reporters, and the four siblings and Jung Soo Hyun reveal themselves from under the podium, looking shocked at the people in front of them.

 

 

 

The production staff of “The Great Show” said, “Wi Dae Han, Jung Soo Hyun, and the four siblings’ charade as the perfect family will bring laughter to viewers with fun, relatable, and healing stories, so please anticipate it.”

“The Great Show” will premiere on August 26 at 9:30 p.m. KST.
