Baro turns bad boy for Angry Mom

Aw, but Baro is so sweet! How will he play a bad boy? I guess after playing a sweet wallflower in Answer Me 1994 and a sweet kid with a learning disability in God’s Gift–14 Days, it’s time for him to switch it up as an actor? Whether he can pull it off remains to be seen, but B1A4’s idol-actor Baro is currently considering an offer to join Angry Mom, the new MBC drama starring Kim Yoo-jung (Secret Door) as a bullied girl and Kim Hee-sun (Wonderful Season) as her mom who goes undercover as a student to get payback.

I actually think he’ll be a great addition to the cast, since he can play really young for his age with that baby face of his (he’s 23 to Kim Yoo-jung’s 16). If he signs on, he’ll play an 18-year-old high schooler, a bad boy in “good-boy cosplay.” His character comes from a privileged private school background and rules the school, wielding the kind of power that makes even gang leaders flinch. I’m sure between him and mean girl Lizzy, they’ll make high school a living nightmare for Kim Yoo-jung.

That’s where Mom Kim Hee-sun comes in, the tough-as-nails former gangster who got pregnant in high school and raised a daughter all on her own. After learning about the abuse her daughter is taking at school, she comes up with a crazy scheme to dress up like a high-schooler and enroll at the school to teach them a lesson or two.

Ji Hyun-woo (Trot Lovers) has signed on to play Mom’s love interest — he’s their teacher, which should make for a hilarious conundrum or two. I’ll laugh if Baro falls for her too. Oh Yoon-ah (You’re All Surrounded) completes the main cast as Kim Hee-sun’s best friend.

Angry Mom follows Kill Me, Heal Me on Wednesdays and Thursdays in March.

I only wish they had cast someone younger to play the mom. I like the actress. I'm just going to have a difficult time believing she's in high school--and that the high schoolers believe she's in high school.

Kyah. It's shaping up nicely. Have go admit am thrilled I am ok with the casting. However Trot Lovers has left a sour taste so hopefully JHW's character is written better than his last drama.

He is really very capable actor. Not only was the writing and directing weak in Trot Lovers, but the stylist was horrendous!

He looked awful and had a highly flawed character. Give him another chance in a better drama. :-)

during the last fanmeeting, fans were asking him if he would have another drama in 2015 like Jinyoung. he was sulking n pouting, saying "No!" so cute hehehe...

this is a good change of character for him. i hope he pulls it off :)

I hope he does well too. it will be nice to see him do a different kind of character. I'm sure Baro can pull it off.

I don't want him to fall in love with the mom. I'd much rather a loveline for the daughter too, though he can't bully her AND hope to get her at the same time, so not sure how it would work out.

Anyway, really looking forward to this drama. Got every actor I'm rooting for right now! Hope it doesn't disappoint!

Aw man. I saw this and got so excited because I was really happy with the cast (even though I'm still unsure about Lizzy in a mean girl role), but I don't like Ji Hyun-woo! D: Couldn't they have got someone better for Kim Hee-sun?

Not like JHW!?!?

I'm shocked. Go watch Queen In-hyun's Man, then come back and let us know if you still feel the same way.

Same as my thoughts. What's the different in Queen In Hyun's Man? I still see Ji Hyun Woo the same because his eyes is too small especially when he smiles, it is so weird!
His latest images in Trot Lovers really can't convinces me to accept who he is now.

Aw, but Baro is so sweet! How will he play a bad boy?

My reaction, exactly! Assuming he can pull it off, which I think he can, this is a good career move for him. But I kind of hate for my perception of him as being so sweet to change. Choi Woong had a similar aura of goodness about him as the kind doctor in Wonderful Days, but after seeing him play a villain in You're All Surrounded, he began to look a lot less innocent to me in WD.

I'm looking forward to Angry Mom-- I just hope the bullying isn't too hard to watch.

Baro's such a good actor. I think he'l be a terrifyingly believable bad boy. Thanks for the good news. Hoping he takes the part.

I don't know if he's a good actor (haven't watched his dramas)

but I know that when someone is doing mean things with a smile - it sends a certain chill down my spine. Like, "how oblivious are you to know even realize this is a mean thing you are doing? how can you sit there with a smile/innocent look on your face?"

So I agree with you on that he'll be a terrifying believable bad boy. Only thing not to do is over-act the 'mean'-side - ie mustache twirling, rubbing hand together & mad cackles.

Hm... 23 with 16, just like the leads in High school love on..
Can't they cast someone suitable in age wise? I mean the boy should be around high school age, not some 23 something oppa.
Isn't there someone in that age, around kim yoo jung's ?

Kim Yoo Jung looks mature and I think males always immature looks.
Or maybe, no so many Korean actors around her ages. She had the heights too, mostly boys around her ages are short and childish looks, not teenage looks.

he is surprisingly serious in his acting despite his young age. in gods gift I was really surprised and while some actors overdo it with disabilities, he knew exactly where to stop not to go over the line with the portrayal.

bad boy.... I think he can do it, again, if he keeps a good balance with the creepy, holding it back rather than going overboard, then it can be even scarier.

(sigh) more idols ... no offense. I wish to see more actors act. I wouldn't be surprised if actors are now pushed into being an Kpop idols just to get roles nowadays. -_-

You find the idea of a teacher falling for his student "hilarious"? I find it ethically reprehensible, as do the many countries wherein it would lead to said teacher's dismissal.

The reasons to watch this drama just went up! Being K-Pop fan, B1A4 is one of my faves and Baro (along with Sandeul) are my biases. Not to mention Baro's acting is pretty solid for a rookie!

Won't it be more funs Baro falls for Kim Hee Sun instead of her daughter? He maybe found the mother figures is more warm to his present environment.
