"Encounter" previously called "Boyfriend" is one of the most expected dramas of this year with two top Hallyu stars. It is a romance drama.
Park BoGum is finally back to the small screen since "Love in the Moonlight" (2016). Many fans were waiting for his next project. Song HyeKyo starred in internationally popular dramas such as "Full House" (2004) and "Descendants of the Sun" (2016).
Many are happy about the cast. However, some fans also have some concern concerning the age gap between them (Song HyeKyo born in 1981 and Park BoGum born in 1993). Moreover, some find the fact that Park BoGum acts with the wife of his close friend, Song JoongKi, a good thing.
