I love the premise; it's fresh, different and completely intriguing. But I'm still not okay with the casting. If they're out for epic, swooony and dramatic romance, I just don't see how a 15 year old can fit in. Just a few more years (3 to be precise) and I'd buy it wholeheartedly.

I'm still going to try it out though lol. Hopefully it's so good I'd forget real issues.

seriously, even an American series wouldn't dare to make a romantic pairing out of a 15-year-old and a 30-year-old.

I mean, even the 1996 Romeo+Juliet refused to hire a then 14-year-old Natalie Portman because they felt it looked off and wrong, and went with a 16/17 year-old Claire Danes instead. And the male costar in that case was all of 21.....not 30 like we've got here.

I honestly wonder wtf the producers of this series are on, if they think this is going to make any kind of credible romantic pairing.

That said, I'm glad to see Yeom Jung-ah again, I liked her a lot in Cart.

I am vacillating between interest in the plot and cringing at the casting. It may be more acceptable if they eliminate the romance between them and gave him a new love interest. I know folks those days married young, but it's hard to suspend the realization of KSR's age and immerse myself in the drama. I had a hard time watching HSLO and she pulled off her part perfectly there, I just kept thinking - this girl is still a kid! Ay yah-yah!

Errr,,I'm having flashback of sleepy hollow now..they also had one odd pairing...depp and christina ricci.

*Loved it though.

This pairing is bordering on pedophilic. Thankfully Yoon Shi-yoon looks more youthful than most of his counterparts of the same age. But still, this pairing is all wrong argh.

No. Please. Just...wait. Stop. Let's think about this, Drama gods. Yes, we all love Yoon Shi-yoon (and NEED to watch his army comeback drama. NEED TO.). And, yes, we all love Kim Sae-ron. But let's just...not put them together. Not in a romance.

Please.

If they want a good romance please cast someone who is age appropriate please. If she was 19 I'd be a little less weirded out but she's 15!!!

If the romance is not the conventional kind, I can see the possibility of pulling it off. So far the premise is interesting. Who's the writer?

The synopsis says she falls in love with him not the other way around. Wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility that this drama doesn't actually have a romantic story line. Wouldn't be the first time a young girl became starry eyed over an older man. I find it hard to believe they will actually pair these two together knowing exactly how uptight korean drama is about adult romance and sexuality. Although to be historically accurate it's very likely true that this kind of pairing took place more often than not, teenage girl, older man. This isn't historically accurate so I doubt we can count on any romantic reciprocation by the male hero.

Nope. Nope.

I am OK with the plot and castings as long as no KSR. No hate, but I prefer someone's older play the role.

SO conflicted! The potential loveline Makes me feel so icky but the actors themselves are great and sound perfect for the role! And the plot sounds SO up my alley. I looove fantasy and I thought the same thing as Cotton Candy, reminds me of Howl's Moving Castle! Which I love!
