Seo Woo and Yoo Seung-ho as a couple

Wow, straight from high school slacker-turned-test-rocking-genius (God of Study) to wealthy heir and husband to Seo Woo? Yoo Seung-ho, you sure are moving up in the world.

New MBC special weekend drama A Woman Only Loves Once (I OBJECT!) has cast Yoo Seung-ho as the male lead, a chaebol son with a twisty birthright (of course). Seo Woo has been confirmed as his love interest: an actress with a past, who ends up in a scandal, and therefore married to Yoo’s character.

But…they’re so wee!

The series also stars Shin Eun-kyung as the string-pulling mistress-of-doom, and is set up to be a 50-episode epic tale of the lives of the filthy rich. Er, what’s new? Frankly, I’m a little tired of rich people and their birth secrets. Can’t Rich Daddy just keep it in his pants?

Hopefully the drama will do something positive for these two actors, who are fantastically expressive. If they end up married for the bulk of the run, that could be an interesting dynamic to explore.

A Woman Only Loves Once will air on MBC in October, following Kim Suro.

Wow,YSH as a married man??! That`s so twisted..and wrong.He`s just 17! He will set an even very difficult standard for any korean (older) men out there to obtain.. ;P

But really,,17!! In JGS -Hwang Jin Yi is a sageuk drama, so it`s pretty normal, but Flame of Ambition is a modern setup. That would be weird..but i`m intrigued though, maybe i check it out. Only the 50 episode of non sageuk drama is euwww...that`s hard to chew for me...

Ooooooh....I'm fans of both! I think that would be an interesting pair...although I wish Yoo Seungho was juuuust a tad older in real life. Then I would be more comfortable with the story.

Did anybody else immediately think this train of thought though?
Seo Woo in Housemaid was wife to Lee Jungjae -> Lee Jungjae is buddies with So Jisup -> So Jisup and Yoo Seungho are lookalikes -> Yoo Seungho has already stepped up to replace the likes of So Jisups / Leejungjaes / Jung Woosungs of the world??

It's the new generation.... I wonder if those guys feel old looking at new "Hollywood." I suddenly want to do an E! compare and contrast of the Respected Heavy Hitters .vs. Fresh-faced Energetic Youths.

Lee Jungjae - Kim Haneul - So Jisup - Song Seunghun - Kwon Sangwoo - Jung Woosung - Jeon Jihyun
.vs.
Lee Minwoo, Park Boyoung, Yoo Seungho, Seo Woo, Jang Gunseok, Park Shinhye

I'm thinking that the casting has to do with the story. Or maybe these 2 people aced their auditions. As actors they probably want to try different things. I really don't think it's a big deal, I don't expect much skinship from this drama. I just hope it's a well acted and well written drama.

wow he's quite young to play a lead role with a older actress..i mean if he played the lead role with an actress his age, then ok but the age gap is quite huge so it will be kinda weird, BUT can't judge from that until the drama is out ^^

"Can’t Rich Daddy just keep it in his pants?"

you're SO RIGHT! i hate it when rich dady play around with his thing & opressing his wife. and it always looks normal in other's eyes. but see it, when the depressed wife having any affair. she would be seen as a bitch. grrrr...

I feel YSH is too young for this role but I am still looking forward to this drama... let's see how he pulls through this.

Why oh why?!

I have no problem with him playing a 21-year-old! Why not? My problem is that I wish it was with Kim So Eun instead! AHH! Oh well.

But with that said, I love Shin Eun-kyung ever since I saw her in MY WIFE IS A GANGSTER (I & II) and loved her in BAD COUPLE!!!! :D

It's acting guys, it's ACTING. I think the production believes that YSH can pull it off. Let's not judge right away guys! Plus 17 is his western age, remember in Korea they add 1 or 2 years in their age so YSH is not under-aged anymore.

That was a cute movie. And yes, big age difference there too. Although I think teenage girls are more mature than teenage boys at the same age.

"Although I think teenage girls are more mature than teenage boys at the same age."

Sure, but a 24-year old guy dating a 17-year old girl has different connotations.

Just pointing out that Moon Geun Young was only 16 when she played opposite a 23 year old Kim Rae Won. Material could have been creepy, but it wasn't.

Agree with you, so it doesn't seem so creepy when see teenage girl in marriage. But at SW and YSH couple, it isn't age differences that bothers me but the thought seeing YSH as a modern-marriage man that bothers.

At Goong, Shin is supposed to be at his 19, when he have to marry Chae-gyeong. Somehow, it is acceptable for me, but I guess JJH look older, maturer than YSH, the noona killer.

Teenage boy in marriage life seem more acceptable in ancient world and old royal family, but at now-day-ordinary life., err..I won't allow my boy to do that for sure (if I have mine, someday, he, he, he)

I wonder if Seo Woo knew he would be her co-star when she agreed to the role, and how she feels about this.

I love both actors, especially Yoo. I'm a noona fan, what else is there to say? Haha, Rich Daddy should definitely keep it in his pants but then again, we wouldn't have any makjang dramas if he wasn't as active as a gerbil. :P

YSH, hahaha...I can even remember his role in "The way home" as a 7 years old naughty boy who pee on the pot.... Now he's going to play a married man ???

He got big talent and hmmm look at his face...yum...

Seo woo and Yoo Seung-ho being a couple in drama that's interested me (I almost YAY Seo woo Yoo Seung-ho!!). I like both actors. For the look, Seo woo match with Yoo Seung-ho. She doesn't look like 25 years old.
But then I read Yoo Seung-ho becomes a husband, marriage man??Oh that too much...He's just looked young, fresh, and TEENAGERS. Oh my little noona killer, please don't try too hard to grow up so fast, because once then you can't turn it back.
Some kind high-schoolers or college student couple probably more suited for them (I try to replace KHJ in PK with YSH, in my imagination). Although I still want to watch it for the actors, but 50 episode?!? Emm, I think I'll just read the recaps, but who will do 50 episode recaps?
