-Who keeps casting him? There are like... five billion dramas I can't watch because of him.
-He must be getting cast because there's demand for him.
-Ugh... I was a fool for getting my hopes up.
-Damn... I was looking forward to this drama, but now I can't watch it.
-I think Kim Seonho will do well.
-Nice... I've been waiting for his next projectㅋ
-First of all, he doesn't suit the role... His character is supposed to be more slender and fragile-looking...
-What did Kim Seonho do wrong? If you look at what that woman's ex-husband exposed, you'll know that she was the one with the messy relationships. People on Theqo are the only ones hating on him, that's why you guys can't understand why he's still popularㅋㅋㅋ
-Ah... I have a lot to say, but I'll just stay quiet.
-Why are they casting someone who doesn't even fit the age range and has controversy? His acting is not even that great.
-People are still making a fuss about him?? I'm so excited for this drama!!
-Are there really no other actors to cast?
-Ugh, he should just drop out from this drama.
-Well, he is a good actor, that's why he keeps getting cast.
-He's going to play a character in their 20s? It doesn't suit him at all.
