The loan shark guy is a terrifically played character, but I had no idea it was the same actor who played Heuk Sudol on DJY until you mentioned it. He did a great job!
Funny that there’s almost no discussion about this show. Even though it’s not completely to my taste, I expected that it was going to be extremely popular with K-drama fans in general.

I *thought* that was our ol' buddy, Heuk Sudol! I just took a look at the boards to see if anyone else noticed, and - - lo, and behold! - - jinju0 did!
I love this show. I was hoping for discussions, as a matter of fact.

You have a very good eye, jinju0; I had seen him on some celebrity show where he revealed that he has much less hair than he was made to look in DJY, but I wouldn't have been able to spot him.
Hey mikey, this really is a good show and I feel that there are plenty of folks, such as myself, that are watching but just don't have time to leave comments. Unfortunately, this could be the reason KBC stopped showing the complete episodes and has resorted to editing, hence the starting time change from 4:30pm to 5pm. I must now begin cooking so that I can make it in time to watch another neglected show, Pretty Insun.

Jinu0, I think Kim Hak Chul is a a terrifically fine actor! I am a relative newcomer to Kdramas, and this is only the second show I saw him in. If I hadn't seen his publicity photos, I wouldn't have known him on this show. I was baffled at first, and I kept thinking, I know him....he's *such* a good actor!....but what's his name?? I'm glad to see him.
Side note: I noticed that Yipan Minister (Hong Gil Dong's father) played the last king of Goguryeo on DJY. And HGD played Wan on Capitol Scandal, as I noted in another thread. Everyone else is new to me.

Your powers of observation astonish me! I’ve been watching “Beautiful Days” all along, but even so it never even dawned on me that “The Colonel” might have been “Wakizaka” in an earlier life. I’ll have to watch carefully tomorrow, and see if I pick up on it. |

CV, say it ain't so! Edited now? I just thought there was a change in the station's schedule.  I really can't wait til the series comes out on DVD now. I've left a couple of posts/comments, but felt like I was talking to myself. I've been watching since the first episode and abosolutely LOVE this drama! Just the right blend of comedy, action, and drama. I think it's a lot of fun and find myself really intrigued. I haven't seen a show or movie that has me so hooked in quite some time. I can't wait til Yinok and Gildong are reunited. The end of Episode 10 drove me nuts.  I dl'd the OST and will buy it later. I've been ordering so much from yesasia.com lately. My birthday will be here soon anyway. I love most of the songs and can't stop listening to it. ~Rachel |

I've been checking the board and reading the comments but don't have anything to add to the conversation. Plus I already finished the drama. ;D
Jang Geun Suk (Chang-hwi) was in Hwang Jini.

When Kim Hak Chul was on DJY, he looked tall. But in HGD, he looked short. Is Kang Jihwan an exceptionally tall man? Is Kim Hak Chul short?
