  1. i remember when kangjoon got casted for young-bin and believe me i was so against and mad about it because i knew the kind of character young-bin is and how hard it's to relate to him as a viewer. i would recommend u to watch the original since the writers do a better job at it with the story but vincent chase (youngbin) is pretty much the same. 'the over-laid back dude with his head in the clouds and who gives all the stress to his manager friend to enjoy the aftermath himself'. [spoilers] the original entourage does give youngbin/vincent much more issues though. he faces movie failures and has a lot of people in the industry ending up hating him for the things he doesn't take responsibility for. he even ends up abusing drugs at one point. but then again the original is eight seasons long and this remake is no longer than 12 puny episodes so we'll probably won't see much of it. or if we do it's probably gonna be rushed and all crammed up and we won't enjoy it at all. personally i like the original better (even with all the fuckboyish issues involved with it ugh i know). i enjoyed it but to be honest with you i ended up warming to youngbin/vincent until the 4 season. he's just not likable at all and that's a problem with how he's written in the original. lol after all he's supposed to represent mark walhberg's in his youth years so i'm not surprised lol.
  2. D'aw friend i know what you mean :( she's working so hard on her acting and her fans can tell she's improving with each project she works in! she's really dedicated, im sure with this mindset of hers will shoot her to the top soon don't lose hope! And all in all, Entourage isn't out yet after all lol so we don't really //know// how different it is from the original! who knows maybe they changed the story a little to put more romance in and stir things up more (it's a korean drama after all...) If the show does well she will surely get /a lot/ of attention from the viewers (obviously) because her character is gonna be really important to the main character (young-bin) In the original his first love messes him up big time lol, im sure they'll do something crazy in this remake. Let's just all hope it turns out well
  3. I don't know how different the adaptation is gonna be so i don't want to spoil much but yeah regardless of how much romance the show is gonna contain they /will/ be shown as a couple! it's just not gonna be of much focus or importance though. She's his first love or something along the lines and they end up meeting/reuniting after a while so i'm pretty sure there's gonna be some 'rekindling' haha. they actually casted a couple girls to play his 'flirt' interest so idk if sohee's character and kangjoon's are actually gonna end up together but they will be doing couples things im sure (ps: but yeah i don't think there's gonna be an official teaser pic about it)
  4. Amber most likely would appear in a promo pic with eun-gab since she's introduced to the viewers by being his assistant (aside from that i don't think her character will have much more focus to the story sadly...) And Sohee thou..well they confirmed that romance isn't one of the main themes in the story so i doubt they would release a promo with her and kangjoon tbqh. it'll be kind of weird imo
  5. @ Demian thanks for taking the time to express your opinion on it. My take on it seems to be kind of 'rasping' lol i like the kid a lot after all but i always try to stay impartial and objective when i 'bias' celebrities y'know, because at the end of the day neither you, i or anybody who isnt close to him really knows what's going on behind the scenes. he says himself that he doesnt want to hide his personality from his fans and tries to be as honest as possible but then again what do we really know. i want to be his fan and support him so i decided to believe he's just a humble hardworking kid who just so happened to end up working with an incompetent director/pd and that's all and about his lead role, he's going to be 23 soon (right?) so it makes me v. happy that he got it now (as opposed to getting it much more older bc yikes...acting gigs always go a little scarce when you age unless your acting is top-notch) it's a relief!! but i guess i just find it bittersweet because public reception is so very important to build a career in acting. the vox populi needs to have a solid opinion of you and that goes proportional to future offers. as his fan, believe me, i can't wait to see his take on fuck-boyish cha young-bin lmao but i'm pretty sure the character will piss/frustrate a lot of viewers. the character just isn't easy to like in my humble opinion... i guess i just always wanted his first lead to be perfect and likable lol. he's like the first 'bias' i've had that gets this much /hate/ it's honestly crazy.... i just want it to /stop/ y'know! OTL. but that probably goes for many celebrities at this point. getting hate here and there, and then fame, etc. But yeah at the end don't mind me too much! lol being partially negative is just something i do to braze myself lmao. as his fan i just want him to do smoothly good even if it might be a little unrealistic
  6. Im actually kind of conflicted with him being the lead this time to be honest with you... After seeing the conclusion of the whole citt mess, i sort of understand part of the audience's frustration...the story was going very well but for reasons we cant assume his character got overexposed. People who werent his fans got tired of seeing inho and even if there isnt evidence to prove him guilty of conspiring with the directors and pd....there isnt evidence to prove him a complete victim either...For people who dont know him or follow him (like we do!) this whole thing left a bad taste in their mouths about kang joon as an actor. We as his fans give him the benefit of the doubt because we truly think he's just a humble, hard-working kid but for unbiased watchers? it was all kind of strange....fishy even...and it's understandable if they dont look forward to his future works even if he nailed his citt character. they got a little sick and it's not that surprising. Im conflicted about kang joon playing vincent mostly because of the public reception y'know? and because of what i just said earlier. If citt didnt go as bad as it did i would be rejoycing because playing the lead on 'entourage' could be the perfect role for him. it could permanently put him as a trendy likable actor. but the public right now dont feel too excited about it. Right now what i think is good for him is a character who is likable from the get go!.....like 'E', who is responsible, has initiative and seems to be the only one with 'sense' at the start of the show. Vince chase (imo) is a character that has to be developed in order for the audience to like him/understand him. (his lack of initiative and sense of responsability is kinda irritating not gonna lie) i dont know how long entourage is gonna run for or how they're gonna present 'it' but with the public perception about kang joon's acting right now im afraid the character is gonna be either fuel for his haters or if he's really lucky...he's gonna be seen in a new light. Im just kinda nervous and maybe a little paranoid about him doing a lead when a good percentage of the citt audience couldnt stand him anymore by the of the drama, and when i say a good percentage i mean quite a lot of people.
  7. Thanks so much @ Demian !! So informative He's such a hard-working guy honestly. I usually dont 'stan' pretty boys like him but somehow he got me with his personality, he radiates this 'humility' about him it's hard to ignore. (he looks very down to earth and genuine plus he's such a klutz in variety programs lol. im a klutz myself socially if im put under (2 much) pressure so i sort of get him lmao). plus he surprised me with his acting skills, he's so young yet he manages to evoke and act so well im impressed And about his Cha Young-Bin role for 'Entourage' thou......im personally not that happy about this role bc in the american series it was kinda hard to like/connect with Vince Chase. me and my friends found ourselves liking 'E' better. Plus even if young-bin is different from the characters he's played so far...i still think it's too close for comfort? I would have rather like him as E/erick rather than vince but that's just my personal opinion (public wise, taking into account the whole citt mess, i think 'E' would have suit him better) but im still excited to see him act and to see how they manage to adapt this series to korean culture.
