:o

I remember her... in Painter of the Wind my Uncle was watching it saying "what is this, Romeo and Juliet? O.o Its a bit too mushy mushy" >.<

Anyways anyways, the fact that LSG is having the role is the reason for me to not watch it... I'm not that excited for LSG. But at the same time, she's a good actress so I "might" try it too.

(A bit OT, but as extreme curiosity *spoilers*did MGY leave off for Moon Chae Won at the end -_-"?*spoilers*)

wow, she is gorgeous. I don't remember her being that great in POTW, but maybe she'll do better in a more "modern" role.

Wow, yeah, she's gorgeous. But her acting is a little weak - I didn't expect her to get a leading role so soon.

Yeah, I can see how she would have "cross-over" appeal...And we'll get to look at the always lovely Han Hyo Joo again. Many thanks to SBS!

She resembles Kim Hee Sun....notice her from the Levis ad with Lee Min Ho

Moon Chae Won is a bit of a conundrum. She can definitely look the part, especially in sageuks, and she has a strong presence on screen even though she's still relatively new. Her downfall is her acting is blerg. She has the aura, but not enough substance I guess. Still, I like Moon Chae Won and can only hope her acting improves as she takes on new projects.

*stares dreamily then sighs*
moon chae won, whatta beauty..
*remembers POTW and the 2 moon's*

lol.

it seems relatively new actors are on faster track to leading roles these days. thinking back, some of those popular dramas in the 90s got 30-somethings to play teens!

Han Hyo-joo is the one with the step-mom, Moon plays the step-mom's real daughter.

"Expect Moon, Lee, and Park to form the vanguard of the new wave of rising stars."

I believed so too.

"it seems relatively new actors are on faster track to leading roles these days."

I think the actress progression is normal. The class of 86-88 now are getting lead roles in drama, the 83-85 class are now the feature actresses in hit shows, and the 79-83 class are signing up for weekend dramas. And then in another 2 years, when Moon Geun Young plays a seductress in a frothy Kim Soo Hyun adultery drama . . . I'm going to feel really old. :(

Yup, Song Hye Kyo is ready to play an ajumma.

Actually, the main plot of the drama is Moon is the real daughter of Kim MS who 'threw' her step-daughter Han away and took over all her assets upon the death of her dad.KMS is a controlling woman who has a strong hold over Moon
Moon likes Lee since childhood because he was strong and warm like her step-dad and they maintained a more than friendship but less than lovers relationship for years. But she began to feel threaten when Han joins the food company owned by the Lee's family as Han and Lee are getting closer through their constant fights.

Yeah, Han Hyo Joo plays the main female role. She's the stepdaughter of the evil stepmom, Kim Mi Sook. Moon Chae Won plays as Kim Mi Sook's real daughter and Han Hyo Joo's stepsister.

I'm kinda looking forward to this (and I'm really surprised that SBS programmed a youth drama in their w/end primetime slot. very counterintuitive) This is Lee Seung Ki's first true lead role, and I think he'll have good chemistry with Hyo Joo. Besides Life is Beautiful, Han Hyo Joo has Heaven's Postman with Hero coming up in a few weeks. Can't wait for the antis after that one! :D

How can anyone not know this face? She is a stunner! I check her soompi thread on a daily basis just too look at her beautiful pix posted there. This post in particular:

Enjoy! My favorite is the third one :)

Agree with #6 ndeogeocello. She definitely has the looks and charisma. One scene where she walked into Dohwaseo in front of the gaping men was amazing. Still needs to build on what she gained from POTW.

She will soon became a famous star !

I like POW and 2 moon's. Their act is so good. Hope that MCW will get the leading role soon. Expecting her new drama...

I like Moon Chae Won...
She is very beautiful girl ...
><
and funny ...

i love her in "the painter of the wind"..she is so georgeous..stunningly beautiful..i hope there will be a korean drama with her and moon geun young again..where they will be friends..
