[News] Lee Min Ho declines lead for 'It Started With A Kiss' Remake

Lee Min-ho has been cast as the lead in Playful Kiss, aka the remake of Itazura na Kiss / It Started With A Kiss.

According to the initial source, Lee Min-ho supposedly chose this project out of loyalty to Group Eight, the production house that cast him in Boys Before Flowers and basically jump-started his career as a leading man and hot commodity. However, according to Lee’s management, while it is true that he received the offer, he has politely declined.

There has been a lot, and I mean A LOT of noise about Boys Before FlowersKim Hyun-joong or You’re Beautiful’s Jung Yong-hwa taking the main role, but nothing has been confirmed and casting rumors remain hazy and noncommital.

Top contenders for the female lead include Park Shin-hye (You’re Beautiful) and Kara’s Han Seung-yeon. Despite some legal problems, Park Bo-young’s name is still being tossed about by some.
