According to Korean media, after Go Min Si, Lee Do Hyun is the next actor invited to play the main role in the upcoming project of the screenwriter pair Hong Sisters (Hong Jung Eun's Sister, Hong Mi Ran).
If Lee Do Hyun accepted, this would be the second time the actor cooperated with the Hong writers after the movie "Ghost Hotel" (2019), and the fourth time he cooperated with Go Min Si after the series "Ghost world", "Youth of May" and short film "Reincarnation Love".
According to Ten Asia, besides the public's excitement about the " dependable chemistry" of the two stars born in 1995, there were still some who expressed concern about "the couple being too familiar".
According to Korean newspapers, the frequency of Lee Do Hyun - Go Min Si paired in recent years has made the audience exclaim: " Their image is getting old" and "I want to see new couples".
In fact, Cha Eun Woo initially participated in negotiations for the male lead role, but has now withdrawn and the offer was sent to Lee Do Hyun.
Along with that, the biggest concern when Lee Do Hyun and Go Min Si reunite this time comes from the fact that the project's screenwriter is the Hong sisters - who have faced accusations of plagiarism many times.
Although the couple has created many hit TV series in many genres such as "The stubborn Girl" (2005), "The Strange Couple" (2006), "The Beautiful Girl" (2009), "My Girlfriend is Ho Ly" (2010), "The Everlasting Love" (2011), "Joe's Sun" 2013... the works of Hong Jung Eun and Hong Mi Ran have been repeatedly accused of plagiarism.
For example, the film Eternal Love is compared to Kim Eun Jungs So I Married the Anti-fan 2010 and Agehas novel Mint 2007. In 2013, Ageha expressed her disappointment through a blog post and requested an official apology from Hong's housewives.
Or the movie Jo's Sun is also compared to Creepy Candy. Flowers and Rings has similarities with the web novel Ae Yoo Gi. Ghost Hotel and Hoan Hon are also being compared to the Japanese comic book xxxHolic and a Chinese TV series.
According to Korean newspapers, the audience raised many questions related to this, because if the upcoming work of the Hong sisters was caught up in the accusation, the image of the two actors would be significantly affected.
Currently, Lee Do Hyun is in the process of completing his military service, but he is still an actor who is of interest, having had many impressive films released in recent times.
Notable among them are "Ghost Tomb", "My Bad Mother", " Glory in hate"... It is extremely important that the actor will accept to participate in any project after being discharged from the army, because this will be a turning point in his new journey.
As for Go Min Si, she is currently working on the movie Tastefully Yours with Kang Ha Neul waiting to be released. Previously, the actress was a surprising and controversial name when her name was announced in the nomination for Best Actress in a Television Series at Baeksang this year along with Kim Tae Ri, Kim Hye Yoon, IU, Jang Nara.
