Cha Seung-won to come back? And kiss Ha Ji-won?

"Looking at MBC's "The King"".

Ha Ji-won likely to be the female lead.

There is a good chance that Cha Seung-won will return with the MBC drama "The King".

He is currently looking through their offer. T Entertainment told Sports Dong-A, "He is currently looking through the offer in Japan and will decide soon if he will do it or not".

Cha Seung-won refused to star in "A Gentleman's Dignity" and "The 3rd Hospital". If Cha Seung-won was to choose "The King" he would be returning to MBC a year after "The Greatest Love", which earned him the Best Actor Award.

"The King" is a romantic comedy that deals with a Korean prince who has an arranged marriage with a North Korean special forces sergeant in a world where Korea is under a constitutional monarchy. Producer Lee Jae-gyoo from "Beethoven Virus" is collaborating with writer Hong Jin-ah. Ha Ji-won is likely to become the leading actress.

"The King" will be broadcast after "The Sun and the Moon" ends, and will start filming at the end of this month.

I've also read the articles, or at least the headlines on soompi. If he's in I might consider watching it.
