Can Lee Jin-wook and Moon
Chae-won make more harmonious chemistry than the Song-Song couple’s?
This soap opera is based on a comic book, written by Hwang Mina, which features a man’s compelling revenge story.
“Goodbye Mr. Black” had its chase and action scenes filmed in the exotic location of Thailand.

In the case of Moon Chae-won, she showed wonderful harmonies as part of a lovely couple with Song Joong-ki in “The Innocent Man”, Lee Seung-ki in “Love Forecast” and Yoo Yeon-suk in “Mood of the Day”.
Based on their acting career, it is fully anticipated with both of them will perform together in “Goodbye Mr. Black”.
Furthermore, there seems to be the possibility of a big rivalry with the ‘Song-Song Couple” from “Descendants of the Sun” because both soap operas will be broadcast at the same time. “Descendants of the Sun” is breaking records with the highest ratings of each episode.
Fans wonder how two rising stars of romance soap opera, Lee Jin-wook and Moon Chae-won, can overcome their rival (Song-Song couple)’s popularity perhaps by making their own synergy for harmonious performances?
