Park Hee-soon's Return to the Small Screen

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! After six years, Park Hee-soon is returning to dramaland in the up-coming SBS drama All about my Romance slated for an April, Wednesday-Thursday time slot. He'll play the second lead who helps the heroine who is a rookie politician. No confirmation about the female lead, though Han Hye-jin was cast but dropped.

Tensions run high as the absence of a physical director is sorely felt by cast and crew while the cameras still roll, capturing all the interactions behind the scenes. The cast is quite the plethora of names and credentials. To name some, Yoon Yeo-jung ( The Housemaid ), Park Hee-soon ( The Client ), Kang Hye-jung ( The Marriage Plot ), Oh Jung-sae ( I Miss You ), Kim Min-hee ( Helpless ), Kim Ok-bin ( Thirst ), Ryu Duk-hwan ( Faith ), Lee Ha-nee ( I am the King ), Kim Nam-j
