THE ROYAL ROMANCE KOREAN CAST

Daniel Henney as Prince Liam

Nana as Riley

As a fan of Korean dramas, I have always wondered if I were a director, who would I cast for The Royal Romance?

After much thought, I was able to make a list of Korean celebrities whom in my opinion can match the personalities of TRR characters. Similarity in looks are just a bonus though.

안녕!!

I’ve always been loyal to Prince Liam! But since Hyun Bin is one of my bias wreckers.. casting him as Drake Walker would really cut my heart in half!! 😂 I believe he’s the perfect oppa to act as Drake, after watching his recent kdrama “Crash Landing On You”. OMG!!!

As for finding an actress as Riley, I did thought of having Bae Suzy..

But I prefer Nana because I find her visual more unique...

She has more of the “western” look vibe. She reminds me of Kim Tae-hee!

Also, I prefer the potential I guess.. she isn’t known for romcom roles yet since she’s always casted for badass films.

Also the  “chemistry” among the characters especially the love team is something that I’ve also considered. 🤔Nana and Hyun Bin already worked together in a film called “The Swindlers”.. while Daniel and Hyun Bin starred in a 2005 kdrama “Lovely Kim Sam Soon”.

Here’s an old photo of Daniel Henney & Hyun Bin together!

SWEET!!!! 😍😍😍

A WORK IN PROGRESS // DAMIEN X KAI // ROUGH SKETCH

I remember the first time Playchoices released the cover of Perfect Match 2. I really thought it was Damien Nazario on the cover.. only to find out it was Hayden Young..

And so, I decided to make my own version. But of course with the whole gang! This is a painting-in-progress by the way.. I can’t wait to post it when it’s finished! 

When you have this HUGE crush on Damien Nazario.. and then you found out you have the same name as his big sister.

I was like, what? WHO?
