However, a lot of rumors and speculations continue to arise, the latest of which is that “The Legend of the Blue Sea” actor Lee Min Ho and his girlfriend Suzy Bae will join the cast of “Descendants of the Sun 2.” The report came amid renewed interest in the drama after “Descendants of the Sun” actor Song Joong-ki posted on his Instagram account a photo from the drama showing him holding a toy gun.
