LeeMinHo will not play as lead of Playful Kiss

photocredit: as tagged

It Started With A Kiss (ISWAK), my most favorite taiwanese drama, is one of MBC's upcoming soaps to air in korea soon. their version is entitled Playful Kiss (the korean adaptation of the Japanese manga Itarazura Na Kiss). there has been several rumors saying that LeeMinHo would probably get the lead role, Naoki Irie (Jiang Zhi Shu in the taiwanese version, portrayed by Joe Cheng). now all those rumors have finally ended... i saw this news in my twitter account tweeted by ALLKPOP...

"Lee Minho’s reps has made it clear today that he will not be taking a role in an upcoming drama titled Playful Kiss. This drama made headlines just yesterday when it was revealed that Kim Hyun Joong might be in it.

Lee Minho’s company said on the 7th, “We don’t know anything about him getting cast in Playful Kiss. It’s true that we had communicated with Playful Kiss awhile ago. But that is all. He has no plans of being in it.”

Lee Minho said himself in a press conference awhile ago that he will not be appearing in the drama. I guess he has something else in mind.

We do wish that the producers, Group Eight can quickly settle on a cast because the rumors are all pretty unsettling and making fans anxious."

i have to admit that i was a little sad.. i was kind of hoping to see minho as naoki/zhishu because i'm so in love with the lead's character in this drama, coz he's just so perfect for the role.. super good looking with the super "angas" factor.. oh well.. i guess it's just not meant to be..

but kim hyun joong to play for the role, isn't a bad idea at all.. but i think they would still need to look for someone who looks more snobbish because that's how the lead should look like.. super snobbish campus heart throb and genius.. for me, hyun joong looks like a super nice guy who won't break a girl's heart.. i think.. i guess we'll have to wait and see how he acts the role if ever he gets it. =)
