The fantasy mystery romance is about two unique high schoolers who become involved in a series of mysterious incidents. Kim Sae Ron will play 18-year-old Ga Doo Shim who wishes to live as a typical high schooler but is born with the undesired fate of becoming a shaman. She is a brave and strong character who will fight evil spirits as she works on solving mysterious cases. Nam Da Reum has been cast as Na Woo Soo, a nearly perfect high schooler with a wealthy background, handsome looks, and outstanding grades. When Ga Doo Shim suddenly appears in his life, he gains the ability to see evil spirits, and the two get entangled in mysterious cases together. Kim Sae Ron commented, “As it is a fantasy genre [drama] that stirs up your imagination, it was so fun reading the script. Ga Doo Shim, who rejects her fate and tries to live the life she wants, was also charming. I think it is a drama you will enjoy. Please look forward to it.” Nam Da Reum shared, “I really had fun reading the script, and Na Woo Soo’s contrast from my previous characters felt more charming. Meeting the director gave me further anticipation and assurance about the project. I will work hard in order for the drama to receive lots of love, so please show lots of support for ‘Excellent Shaman Ga Doo Shim.'” Spoiler Kim Sae Ron and Nam Da Reum both debuted as child actors. Kim Sae Ron, who debuted at the age of nine, has impressed in various genres with projects such as “The Man from Nowhere,” “Hi! School – Love On,” “Mirror of the Witch,” “Love Playlist Season 4,” and more. Nam Da Reum debuted at the age of six in “Boys Over Flowers” has since become known for playing the younger counterparts of many actors such as Lee Jong Suk in “No Breathing,” “Pinocchio,” and “While You Were Sleeping,” Yoo Ah In in “Six Flying Dragons,” Jang Ki Yong in “Come and Hug Me,” Kim Seon Ho in “Start-Up,” and more. After playing a leading role in “Beautiful World,” he will now be taking on the male lead of a romance drama for the first time. “Excellent Shaman Ga Doo Shim” will consist of 12 episodes, each about 20 minutes long.

Together, they must solve various mysteries in order to survive. Yoo Seon Ho joins the cast as the spirit of high schooler Hyun Soo, who remains by Ga Doo Shim’s side after his unfortunate death by an evil spirit. The show will capture Hyun Soo’s transformation in detail as it depicts his life as a regular high school student, how he is possessed by the evil spirit, and how he becomes a spirit that cannot leave the earth.

stroppyse Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Where can I watch this drama??? I am so excited for this pairing! I love both of these young actors. Despite some questionable choices of projects (really, High School Love On?). I think they're both really excellent, charismatic actors. Also, it's nice to see Nam Da Reum has graduated from playing the younger counterparts and is becoming a leading man in his own right. Thanks for creating the thread @mademoiselle! 5 1 Link to comment

JenL Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I was wondering why the actress was familiar. She's the little girl from Man from Nowhere! Also friends with LJW. You don't watch anything of theirs for years and suddenly you don't recognise them! Ok, I'll watch this. Story line sounds fun - I like the fun supernatural stories and NDR, even though he's so youngggg 2 2 Currently watching: Doctor Slump // Queen of Tears // The Impossible Heir Current Obsessions: ❤ Lee Jae wook // Park Hyung Sik // Yoon Park Podcast: These Dramatic Days Link to comment

mademoiselle Posted July 3, 2021 Author Share Posted July 3, 2021 Watch: Kim Sae Ron And Nam Da Reum Test Their Chemistry At Script Reading For Fantasy Romance Drama Kim Sae Ron and Nam Da Reum’s new fantasy mystery romance drama “Excellent Shaman Ga Doo Shim” (literal title) unveiled photos and a video from the drama’s script reading! Kakao TV’s “Excellent Shaman Ga Doo Shim” is about two unique high schoolers who become involved in a series of mysterious incidents. The video clip begins with Kim Sae Ron and Nam Da Reum exchanging their lines. Kim Sae Ron introduces herself, saying, “This is Kim Sae Ron, who will be playing the role of the brave ‘girl crush’ Ga Doo Shim.” Nam Da Reum also shares that he is playing the role of Na Woo Soo. Moon Sung Geun has been cast as Kyung Pil, the principal who turned their high school into the best high school in Korea. Yoo Seon Ho comments that he plays the character Hyun Soo who dies in the first scene. Yoon Jung Hoon plays Il Nam, who is best friends with Na Woo Soo and has the lowest grades in his class. The actors explain that the drama follows the story of students who fight against ghosts that appear at school and find growth in the process. Nam Da Reum reads from the script, “Does the world you see look different from mine?” and Kim Sae Ron replies, “Yes, very much.” Nam Da Reum asks, “Can I get a preview?” and Kim Sae Ron says, “Welcome to my world.” Kim Sae Ron further explains that Ga Doo Shim inherited her powers as a shaman from her grandmother and is fated to be a shaman, adding, “She is a brave and bold character who escapes from her destiny and searches for the life she wants to live.” Nam Da Reum shares, “Na Woo Soo is a student with a wealthy background, outstanding grades, an a tsundere personality. He spits out his words without much thought and seems a bit cold-hearted and stand-offish, but I think he is actually loyal and warm-hearted.” When Ga Doo Shim suddenly appears in his life, he gains the ability to see evil spirits. “It was very exciting. The situations and stories behind each character are very interesting,” Yoo Seon Ho explains. “I become a spirit and desperately look for my mom. I also become Doo Shim’s friend and support her.” Nam Da Reum also says, “The familiar setting of a school and the unfamiliar topic of evil spirits are meshed well.” After the script reading, the actors share that they were able to get a clearer image of the drama and are looking forward to the shooting. Lastly, Kim Sae Ron comments, “Although it deals with the topic of shamans, it’s a drama you can enjoy lightheartedly. Please look forward to finding out whether Doo Shim will be able to throw away her fate and find the life she wants to live.” Watch the script reading video below! “Excellent Shaman Ga Doo Shim” will consist of 12 episodes, each 20 minutes long. The drama is slated to be released sometime this year. source 3 Link to comment
