Is the Relationship Between Jang Keun Suk & Han Ye Ri Shaky?

 

The posters for Korean actor Jang Keun Suk and actress Han Ye Ri's upcoming drama 'SWITCH' have been unveiled.

On March 23, SBS' new drama 'SWITCH' released three different posters featuring the main cast―Jang Keun Suk and Han Ye Ri.

'SWITCH' is a drama about a smart con artist named 'Sa Do-chan' (Jang Keun Suk) who somehow ends up acting as a righteous prosecutor 'Paik Jun-su'.

 

Han Ye Ri will be playing the role of an enthusiastic prosecutor 'Oh Ha-ra'.

In one of the posters that shows two different characters of Jang Keun Suk, he puts on a self-satisfied smirk on his face for his character 'Sa Do-chan', and he shows no emotions in the other one character as 'Paik Jun-su'.

Right in between the two contrasting characters, the writing says, "A prosecutor or con artist, they are not too different, right?".
In the poster with Jang Keun Suk and Han Ye Ri both in, there is a writing written above them and it says, "Would you be able to handle the consequences?".


In Han Ye Ri's poster, she looks charismatic with a suit on.


The writing next to her says, "Would you rather trick others or go to prison?"
Several things can be inferred from the posters, and they are raising many people's curiosity as to what would happen in the drama.

'SWITCH' is scheduled to air wed, thu from 28 Mar.

First Look: Jang Geun Suk Impresses in 'Switch - Change the World'


Jang Geun Suk is back on TV with a new drama Switch - Change the World. This time, he plays Sa Do Chan, a handsome con artist who is recruited (or should we say, forced?) to take the place of his lookalike prosecutor Baek Jun Su after the latter falls into a coma. Just a few episodes in, we're completely smitten, and it's all thanks to the intriguing build-up to the mystery surrounding Jun Su's accident. Here's everything you need to know about the show!

 

5c8c60ec64c24133f93e279644b88a1b.gif&key

 


- What is the show about?
The show builds on a formula that viewers love - the identity switch. On one hand, we have Baek Jun Su, a super serious prosecutor who graduated with good grades but barely has any friends. He's supposed to pick up a mysterious item when he meets with a car accident and falls into a coma. His only BFF, fellow prosecutor Oh Ha Ra (Han Ye Ri), recruits con artist Sa Do Chan to take his place and retrieve the item. Let's just say things get pretty wild from there…


- Tell us more about Sa Do Chan
For starters, he's a genius with an IQ of 168. Six years ago, he was on his way to take the bar exam when he was called away to attend to what we believe was a family emergency. Now, he makes a living by defrauding crooks who can't report him for fraud and disappears without a trace after a scam.


- What makes him so different from other TV swindlers?
He's a real softie! He may be a con man, but he has a big heart and will go out of his way to help the disadvantaged. He believes that prosecutors are blinded by their ambition and are only interested in big cases, so the methods he uses to nab the baddies are a little unconventional, to put it mildly. Definitely not what the real Joon Soo would approve of!

- And what can we expect from his relationship with Oh Ha Ra?
You honestly can't not like this girl. Like most recent strong female characters in K-dramas, Ha Ra is smart, witty, and strong (for real, she threw a grown man to the ground). She's also devoted to Jun Su and is slowly learning to see Do Chan in a positive light. Frankly, we find their bickering quite endearing, so it would be interesting to see how their relationship will change in coming episodes.


- Is there anyone or anything else we need to look out for?
Jang Geun Suk said the show will likely be his last work before he starts his mandatory military service.

That means, you won't be seeing him for a while. So, if you're looking to invest your time in just one drama this season, Switch: Change the World is the one you shouldn't miss!

[Knews] "A strong Real man force" … 'Switch' Jang Geun Suk, charisma with black

Jang Geun Suk Transforms Into A Charismatic Biker In “Switchâ€


SBS’s “Switch†released stills of Jang Geun Suk showing off his charisma as a biker in all black.

In the drama, Jang Geun Suk plays two roles as Sa Do Chan and Baek Joon Soo. While Baek Joon Soo is a prosecutor who always sticks to the rules, Sa Do Chan is a genius conman.

 

Spoiler starts


The latest episodes of “Switch†featured Sa Do Chan working together with Baek Joon Soo in chasing down the culprit behind the drug dealing business. After receiving a tip that drugs were being smuggled through diplomatic bags, Baek Joon Soo grew suspicious of the president’s private jet. Sa Do Chan blocked the president’s path and began investigating, but initially failed in finding any drugs.

He then noticed a small Moai statue in a box with the name label of a diplomat he had investigated earlier. Reminded of what happened in Keum Tae Woong (Jung Woong In)’s gallery, Sa Do Chan immediately smashed the statue and found a bag of LSDT.

 

 

 

Spoiler ends
The newly released stills show Jang Geun Suk dressed in black from head to toe. Instead of his usual mischievous attitude, he looks charismatic and serious as he sits on his black motorbike.

 

After racing through the streets on his motorbike, Sa Do Chan walks into a restaurant, looking fierce. Holding his helmet in one hand, he takes off his leather gloves as he heads inside.

 

The scene was filmed recently in Incheon’s Chinatown. Jang Geun Suk paid extra attention to his line of movement as he filmed the scene where he stops his motorbike and walks into the restaurant. After going through the script in detail and thinking about every gesture, Jang Geun Suk immediately fell into the character of Sa Do Chan when the cameras started rolling.

 

As the scene involved Jang Geun Suk racing on a motorbike, various filming devices including a helicam were used to shoot the scene.

 

The production staff of “Switch†shared that the upcoming episode will feature Sa Do Chan’s endless efforts to catch the person behind the drug business. “Please look forward to the future actions of genius conman Sa Do Chan who is displaying just as much passion as Baek Joon Soo, a real prosecutor, when it comes to investigation,†they added.

“Switch†airs every Wednesday and Thursday night at 10 p.m. KST
