same like suzy and love Lee Seung Gi.
plot sounds interesting and fun i'll be waiting for this :]

From the director of Gentleman's Dignity, Secret Garden, City Hall, Lovers in Paris and screenwriter who wrote Dal Ja's Spring and King of Baking I certainly want to watch this!

I'm so watching this!!!

I will definitely watch this one. :) I have to clear my list up some more before I can add it though. It sounds really interesting. I've never seen anything involving a male gumiho. Very unique.

I'm gonna give it a try, it will be my first historical drama. Don't let me down, Lee Seung Gi!

Sung Joon is also going to be in this playing LSG's rival. I may give this a shot. It's a shame that I'm only watching one currently airing kdrama.

this looks soooo good!! The parents' story looks amazing! Not too sure about Suzy being the lead but Seung Gi never fails to impress.
