Yeah... remember when Lee Il Hwa played the mother in 'Reply 1997' whose daughter was dating Song Jong Ho?  He was pretty much like a son to Lee Il Hwa there, but now he's playing her husband in 'Orange Marmalade.'  That's what you call a sudden switch!  He discussed this during the press conference for the upcoming vampire drama on May 12.  

He said regarding their coupling, "It was awkward calling her honey when I used to call her mother in 'Reply 1997.'  Still, we've worked together [before] and she comes out as an older woman, but she looks young, so I felt no burdens.  I hope you'll watch without preconceived notions."

You'll get to see a different chemistry between the two actors this time around!  Make sure you watch out for it this Friday during the drama's premiere.
