Many netizens have become ecstatic to see Ko Kyung Pyo joining the cast of Reply 1988 as he has recently wowed many spectators with his impressive acting skills in the 2015 Korean film, Chinatown. Other netizens, who often mistake Park Bo Gum as model-actor Hong Jong Hyun, have also shown their anticipation for the rising star who first rose to stardom as a child actor.

tvN’s Reply 1988 will begin organizing its filming production after Oh, My Ghost, the follow-up drama of current tvN drama, Ex-Girlfriend Club, finishes airing in the latter half of 2015.
