The idea that the producer might not want So-min in season 2 and might be recasting the heroine for that reason seems improbable. If the heroine is being recast it must be because So-min never signed on to a season 2, wants a break, and/or already has another drama or movie role that she's interested in doing.
Yeapp... it's something that makes me so uncomfortable about asian celeb culture....that they can only ever belong…
Yes, but not only lobbyists--also megabucks donors, who tie their campaign contributions to the candidates' voting the way the donors want them to vote and the hell with the people's best interests.
She was extraordinary in Mr. Sunshine, especially in her soft power scenes. Of course great dialogue and being filmed with so much love was a big help.
When one considers what's out there, this review is curiously harsh. Sure, the male lead isn't quite ready for prime time, but he improved noticeably as the series went on; and let's face it, Jang Na-ra, now in her prime, can act any of her male leads off the screen. Yes, the villain is a mustache-twirler, but that's because he's a symbol-- the living embodiment of evil. I thought Ji-ah made that clear when she burnt her hand and risked her future as an exorcist in order to send him off to an eternal hell and her secretary took extra precautions to make certain that he never walk the earth again.

One of the best..." and you rate it a 7.0? And the acting a 7.0?! SYHH is a gem, a highly original future classic, with a bevy of well-defined characters, exciting action sequences, heartbreaking stories within the story that fully engage, and...Jang Na-ra, who has created an unforgettable heroine for the ages.
Do watchers realize that Jang Nara is playing the role of an autistic woman in her twenties with the mental/emotional age of a precocious 6-year old, who also happens to be a violin savant and that she won China's Golden Rooster Award (equivalent to an Oscar) for Best Actress in a foreign film?
As the writer of the review has honestly stated, she has only seen the few (one?) K-Dramas in which Jang Na-ra played a timid character, or, as I like to call her, an ordinary looking, warm-hearted, forgiving woman, who was taken advantage of and scorned because of those very qualities. But even in that one K-Drama (Fated to Love You), Jang Na-ra had a dramatic arc in which the innate talent she possessed for expressing her warm-heartedness in her paintings, allowed her to become a success in her own right and to choose between two really hot guys who loved her just the way she was.
