"In particular, Park Shin Hye and Park Hyung Sik, who are confirmed to star as the leads in JTBC’s new drama Doctor Slump, are expected to co-present at this year’s award ceremony and preview their chemistry ahead of the release of Doctor Slump, which will be unveiled in 2024."
So 2024 after all then? Source: https://entertain.naver.com/now/read?oid=408&aid=0000201420

It was on Naver in July, saying she was reviewing the offer:

SH S2 in late November/early December, GC S1 December 22.

Nothing rude about basic personal preferences. You can't like every actor, and of course you want your favorites to do projects with people you like.

Euijung is married to Junmo, but she was high school sweethearts with Gicheol. There will be flashbacks to their school days. She gave him a necklace; he's still wearing it. There likely won't be a "love triangle" but her ties to both men will make everything more complicated.

I'm so glad Han So Hee passed on this because I love her but I don't care for the male lead.

I wonder if he will do a romcom next after two years of action with Gyeongseong Creature. Hope so!

How can we leave our romcom brains outside as they release a clip of high school Euijung giving Gicheol a necklace and then he's STILL WEARING IT when they meet again 😭

The video accompanying the description was of JCW x WHJ.

Sounds interesting though parts of it seem very similar to The Glory.

Probably not. JCW said this was part of why he took this role, saying "I wanted to show how far humans can change through Junmo." He'll get to show off his acting.

Or Gicheol will end up dead at the hands of Junmo 😱

It was posted on the Twitter accounts of Disney+ Singapore and Philippines together with a clip

Loved following this weekly. Perfect comfort show. Satisfying ending. 9/10.

New description from Disney: "An ambitious cop gone rogue. A hardened gangster seeking redemption." So it seems Junmo will be the bad guy and Gicheol the one seeking redemption? This makes me wonder who Euijung will end up with. Maybe she will leave her ambitious gone-rogue husband for Gicheol...

Not two parts, two seasons. They were just shot back to back. The Glory was one 16-episode season released as two parts (it now shows as just one 16-episode season on Netflix), while GC was ordered as two seasons of 10 episodes each.

I think more than 16-episode shows actually dragging, a lot of people are just struggling with their attention span due to the world we live in. No matter how perfectly paced a drama is, some will always complain that it's "dragging", when the problem is them and not the show's writing. People watching stuff at 1.5x speed while on their phone, at that point why bother at all.

Why was this adjusted from 7 episodes to 8? What's the source?

Netflix and Disney+ originals have always mainly done fewer episodes for Korean content. Sometimes as little as 6 episodes, but usally 8 or 12. Of course there are exceptions like Moving (20) and The Glory (16, though released in two parts). But generally, that's how it is. With upcoming shows later this year too, like Vigilante (8), Gyeongseong Creature (10) etc.

Thank god he’s going back to romcoms. Loved him in Welcome/Meow, the Secret Boy and Angel’s Last Mission: Love. But Numbers was not good.
