Adoooorable actor Song Joong-ki (OB-GYN, Triple) has been cast as the lead in a special 4-episode MBC drama, called Running Shirt (working title).
According to Song’s management, Sidus HQ, he will play a bright and cheerful marathon runner in the “bright sports youth drama.” His character Dae-gu was born in 1988, the year Seoul hosted the Olympic Games, and had to give up sports because of a painful past. However, he discovers a passion for running and begins running marathons. The title represents the spirit of young people “who face the harsh world wearing only a running shirt and throw one’s body full-speed ahead.”
Song Joong-ki said, “As soon as I started the script, I read it all in one sitting without stopping. It was that fun and touching. I felt really moved at Dae-gu as he heads toward his dream of running marathons, and the loyalty and passion of those around him.”
The special drama will begin filming in early April and will air on MBC in June.

Omg. he’s so cute <3 cannot wait for this
I like him, he actually was the first male I like from Obgyn (long before Dr.wang). hope him to do well in this drama.
lol. LOL. did anyone catch him on strong heart saying how he got yelled at during frozen flower filming because he runs kinda funny due to years of short track? xD hopefully he fixed that habit if he’s gonna be running during the entire drama
anything with Song Joong-ki in it will have me watching it!
so psyched for this!
after watching him in OB-GYN (and previously Triple), i finally saw the twinkle in this
adorable young man, he is a good actor!
@yen_nguyen
I second that! It was SJK as the obnoxious but totally droolworthy Dr Ahn first before I fell for Dr (sexy) Wang (and somewhat Dr Lee too).
Will definitely check this short drama out, for my him. xD

Ditto! He makes me want to pull his face in, and let’s rub noses together.
Good luck to him and his successes.
another cute actor , as Dr Wang actor , they are both cute .
He’s as adorable as Jang Geun-seok and Kim Bum, but without Geukie’s smirk or Bummie’s wink wink self-awareness.
First speed skating and now sprinting, too bad he couldn’t have been the lead in HTTG, SJK playing soccer, I’d watch that!
Definitely gonna watch this! Can’t wait to see him as a lead
