Overdone indeed. Rain is a hit or miss for me but such a premise... Is underwhelming. Then comes the question of the wanabe star -who-better-know-how-to-sing: I bet the usual names will land on our screens.

I've always liked Rain so seeing him in a new drama would be nice but this doesn't sound that promising , unless it turns out to be a very good comedy and that never happens , or it does something new and show the dark side of showbiz that dramas barely touch but this Obviously won't .

Rain is going to be playing JYP. That… would be funny, but weird. Or weirdly perfect?

Make it the other way round - JYP playing Rain. It would be a riot, wouldn't it?

I like Rain as an actor waaaaay better than as a singer, but really, we've had too much people dreaming of singing mediocre songs, being under public scrutiny and advertising outdoor equipment recently. I would be delighted to see Rain in a drama that has nothing to do with entertainment.

Go for it, its been a while.

Oh man! I was looking forward to Indian Summer even if I only wanted to comment on it when it was official. They didn't even give me a chance! Rain hasn't had an acting comeback in Korea since his discharge so I reeeealy hope he picks something that has a good chance of succeeding.

The story sounds too generic, but the time slot is the best since it's been leading for over a year now. Rain has always had A-list actresses as leading ladies, so if he's picking this up, I'm expecting a big name. I'm really hoping he pairs up with HJW at some point since they're both so charismatic and charming.

I'm still expecting Indian Summer to materialize for him. Maybe he's just looking for a perfect comeback. I dunno if this one is it, but whatever he picks, I'm obviously in.

Since it's the year of reunion, my personal preference would be Song Hye Kyo as his leading lady. But I'm afraid it will be idol.
The story does sound similar to Trot Lovers and YTBLSS, but I'm excited to see Rain's drama comeback.

Genius again, how about a struggling musician, and meet someone who will make him change for a better.

I have to admit I'm not sure I care what the plot is if it puts Rain on my screen twice a week for two months. Preferably shirtless, which would eliminate any worries about Jackets.

is this a new trend that female lead needs to have musical talent ( either singing or playing instrument)?

That's some suit. A genius designer cut up one of his Full House shirts and hot glued it to his jacket. How is it that he still looks cool?!
:-)

I really want to be excited for this because it's been AGES since the last time oppa does drama, and i will pray that it turns out great. But seriously, can it not be Trot Lovers all over again? (I do enjoy Trot Lovers though, just don't feel like watching another drama with that premise.)

Rain playing JYP sounds amazing. They should ditch all the other stuff and just go with that. Rain is a great actor, especially in quirky/weird projects, so I'll probably watch it whatever happens.

You had me at...Rain. I'm in!!!!

Do I sound like an obsessive fan? Well I am! Woot woot!!!

So psyched for this if he signs on! He does rom-coms so much better than anything else. Hope he confirms soon and hope they cast the female lead well. But who?! Surely not IU or Eunji because, hello, they've already played female leads Who were exactly the same as the character described here. Ha. Whoooo?? Anyways, this is great news!

You mentioned You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin and I agree that it sound quite familiar. Hope at least he isn't as useless as the main lead in You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin in regards of his job, or they just stopped making it sound like he's good if that isn't the case.

To be honest I am not excited about this premise. If handled right it could be really good; however, most likely that is not how it will end up. Although I like Rain and would hope he wouldn't accept the role if that was the case and earlier works of PD gives hope. Then again that picture isn't very assuring.

Looking forward to seeing his new drama. haters gonna hate, but he's always the best actor and singer for me

Meh - never a Rain fan but after his military service fiasco, don't have much respect for him.

I am a fan and happy with this news. He can act and he takes everything he does seriously. Don't care about the premise.

I'm just excited to see him on screen, but it'd be nice if it's good.

I've been watching Trot Lovers & thinking that Rain would have been a better fit for Ji Hyun-Woo's role. I like JHW & all but I just cannot stop comparing him to Kim Boong-Do. He's ruined me from all his other dramas b/c he was just so great in QIHM. I don't absolutely love him as Jooh-Hyun although I'm liking Jung Eun Ji as Chun-Hee in it. So confusing . . .
