Netizens couldn’t believe it.
Koreaboo
One of the hit shows of 2021 was However.
When the show first aired, it received mixed reactions. Although many netizens appreciated it, some felt that it lacked a plot and was too “provocative”. Yet, it is still well known to fans around the world and the chemistry between the two Kang song AND Han So Hee was “legendary” both during the show and when the cameras were off.
On October 31, Netflix Japan confirmed the Japanese remake of However even if you know it from the title The forms of love. The short trailer shows what fans can expect from the remake and reveals that Song Kang’s character will be played by an actor and model Yokohama Ryusei.

Yokahama definitely exudes imagery, and while very different from Song Kang, he still has a perfect charm to the character.
Yokohama is very popular, with over 3 million followers on Instagram, who showcase his images…
And also photos with Jung Hae In and K-Pop group TXT.
The interactions on the tweet were huge, proving the popularity not only However in Japan but also of the actor who plays the male protagonist. Even international netizens couldn’t hide their shock at the announcement and at having Yokohama as the protagonist.

Some fans also shared their curiosity as Netflix Japan focused the trailer on the male character (Jae Eon) rather than the female character (Nabi).
Netflix Japan kept the female protagonist of the Japanese remake of Nonetheless a secret for a long time. I’m afraid they’re turning a female-centric drama (Nabi is the lead!) into a male-centric one, but I’m still so curious! pic.twitter.com/AyB7azlT4k
