I dreamed of days like this since I first saw him in City Hunter
OMO! Same, I loved his character in the drama and ofc cried in the end) and have been wishing since then for him to get a main lead role. 365 did satiate that want and he was amazing, but seeing him in a romance drama lead role just hits different. This has been a long wait - but much deserved journey for him - and am so happy!
"Trending" actor Lee Joon Hyuk - well high time! He has been trending in my mind since the first time I saw him in City Hunter, and drama life had never been the same. Stranger, 365 Days, Designated Survivor just cemented that position.
So glad that his recent projects have been making the waves - and I hope it only grows and grows!
wait he was in those dramas??? I don't remember him at all when I've seen both while following cinderella game!!…
OMG - me too! I saw both shows while parallely following Cinderella Game and hence I could recognise him.
Since you have seen both shows - I am sharing in much more details, and you can check his MDL page also in case my explaination is not good
(1) When the Phone Rings: When FL gets selected as the sign language interpretor in the ML's office, you remember there are other sign language interpreters joinee as well? He is one of them. Guest Role as a Sign language applicant] (Ep. 4-6, 8)
(2) Light Shop: Remember towards the end we see the ghost lady with the inverted nails sewing up her boyfriend every time he was passing out? One time she is doing the sewing in the theater and there is a couple that is watching the movie? The girl tells her boyfriend that she is hearing something - and then the couple kind of leave in a rush, a bit scared? HE was the boyfriend. It was EP 6.
- he is one of the sign language interpretors in the office along with FL and Light Shop is a very small cameo, in one of the episodes where main characters (ghost lady stitiching go into a theater, there is a couple (
I wouldn't mind a season 2 for any good series. Given, it has a good closing in the previous season (without making…
True - but I guess with time, I have grown a little impatient. Like when season take years to release, and there is always a sword hanging over it that it can get cancelled . . . no matter how good the show is it takes away excitement to some extent at least for me.
Ex: Manifest, FROM series were/are really good shows across all factors for me, but because they made it too long and wait time was too much that the overall experience became less enjoyable. Had it been a show with seasons in quick session, would be more enjoyable.
Not sure if am sharing it well, but I hope I was able to share my viewpoint. :)
Park Chang Hoon is so good as Ji Chang! Ep 39 - his drunk scene was really good bringing the emotions out quite well. It was quite moving - can't wait to see how his role proceeds.
I have seen him in other recent dramas - When the Phone Rings and Light Shop where he had minor roles, but am really hoping he gets bigger roles - because he is really talented - and cute!
It was going so well - and then that finale episodes last 5 minutes or so brought it down so terribly. Like what was that? Honestly - this would have been a solid 7-7.5 but with that ending, am just confused - like did the makers of the show think or rather not think!!
Ep 1 - 12 (barring last 5 minutes) - worth a watch, solid 7. Ep 12 (the last 5 minutes and that useless ending) - one of the worst endings till date, -100.
Overall: 5/10 | Not recommended, cause of this ending cause it makes the initial episodes a waste. Watch the movie instead. Else just watch the show and pretend that the ending 5 minutes did not happen.
Where's Kim Jae Kyung š It's been a while since I saw her on a drama
Yes, I hope they enjoy the new phase of their life. But also wishing that they are back soon - both of them are such talented actresses, so hope to see them sooners than laters!
Where's Kim Jae Kyung š It's been a while since I saw her on a drama
Well, Veronica Park has a busy life running Cinepark and dating Ki Dae-joo-shi š #SecretLifeOfMySecretary!
Haha, but yes, you are right Kim Jae Kyung is another underrated talent, she got married last year, so maybe she's on a break. But am hoping that she is back soon with some great projects!
Jang Theo reminds me of Seo In Guk, especially some of his antics like Seo In Guk's role in Shopping Louie (like in Ep 4 - when he asked for more rice - cute puppy)
OOOOOMMMMMMMGGGGGGG - YAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS!!!! My favorite two dark-horses-turned-megastarts are paired up together as leads š š š This would be great in acting, and the synopsis sounds interesting. . . can't wait for these two reunited actores to recreate magic on-screen š
Because our male lead is the best, no offense to LJY, but after watching CWS on our beloved summer, he became…
I hope so! It is always gratifying when people who have worked hard get the recognition. A recent one would be Byeon Woo Seok.
Similarly I made this comment cause I have seen/followed LJY since his idol days, to acting - and I feel he deserved good projects like this one to make his talent shine!
I have not started this drama - but is there any reference to the song "Hotel California" in any episodes so far? Would be very cool if the song plays in background in some scene...
I am waiting for this week's episodes to air and then start. I am using all my will power to wait - and comments…
Oh 365 was such a great drama - and he was so so good. And Stranger was such a good one, and while watching it loved his character though it was minor. So it was a pleasant surprise that his character got its own spin off series - I am yet to watch it, but am sure more of him will never hurt ;)
But for now I just started Love Scout - and am sure even you are watching.But I'll recommend City Hunter, Designated Survivor, Vigilante and some of his dramas where while he is in support role - they are roles with a strong impact.
I am waiting for this week's episodes to air and then start. I am using all my will power to wait - and comments…
I just started watching Love Scout - hahaa, couldn't take waiting anymore. And yes it is only Ep 1 and too early to form any opinion about the drama - but I like how it is not too sweet, but they are butting heads and I can see that there will be moments of care/respect that will come before love does.
I hope I can make myself understood.. unlike other dramas where you can see the adoration that the protagonists…
I am waiting for this week's episodes to air and then start. I am using all my will power to wait - and comments here are making me fangirl hard and testing that will power.
I love the actor - from seeing him as the police guy in City Hunter first to multiple projects as the support character/SML and then finally as ML in 365 Days = every role of his makes me love him more and more for his talent and ofc his looks! I really hope he gets more projects this year and more - for us all to enjoy!
As for the FL - my first and only drama of hers has been "Familiar Wife". I got into it cause of Ji Sung but she held her own and I knew how amazing she is. Excited to see her here.
And your comment - I understand and relate to completely. While I do love dramas where leads adore each other and fall head over heels - I think over time as I have grown up too - I like dramas like this which portray a mature love story - like admiration growing into love. Therefore I am super excited to start this show and thanks for your comment :)
