Kim Tae-hee pairs with Song Seung-heon in My Princess
by javabeans
Kim Tae-hee has been cast as Song Seung-heon‘s leading lady in the upcoming romantic-comedy drama series My Princess.
Not much has been explained about Song’s character, but Kim plays a lively character who dreamed of being a princess when she was younger, but “returns to reality” and goes back to school as a late university student. The twist? One day she becomes a real princess.
Must… resist… snark… reflex…
Oh, screw it. Now THIS is going to be awesome. By which I mean awesomely entertaining in the so-bad-it’s-good way. Because individually, these are two stars who are known for being as limited as actors as they are gorgeous to look at. (They both remind me of really beautiful robots.) Together they will be blinding with their good looks and, if they’re lucky, might just scrape together enough acting talent for one regular actor. (Okay, that last part might have been a little harsh. They have both had projects where they’ve been decent in the overall scheme of things. But in those examples, they were mostly paired up with or overshadowed by much more talented co-stars and epic storylines. Example: their most recent projects, IRIS and East of Eden.)
On top of that, My Princess comes from writer Kim Eun-sook of the Lovers trilogy, City Hall, and On Air. She’s known for sharp, fast-flying dialogue and lots of banter, which is not an area in which either is particularly gifted.
Still? I’m actually looking forward to this. Either they’ll surprise me and be adorable and funny together, or it will be unintentionally amusing. Win-win?
Kim Tae-hee is currently filming the movie Grand Prix and will begin working on the drama in late August. My Princess is looking at a premiere later this year.

is good that Kim tae Hee got paired up with Song Seung Hun as lead couple,
but I would much prefer Lee Da Hae as lead actress. Would still watch this coming series.

"My princess" : it sounds a good drama. I hope it will be successful as “Love story in Harvard”.
SSH is as good as Kim Rae Won? It remains to be seen.
But Kim Tae Hee is so beautiful and she did good jobs in both IRIS, Love story in Harvard, Forbidden Love. I love all her dramas.

o my goodness..what is with that photo....hahahahaah..
sometimes the most beautiful people could look bizarre in certain clothes..reminds me of koreas famous Andre Kim fashion..
I never understood his style ( and why he paints his head )..totally reminds me of the 80s..and yet famous ppl always walk for this guy..so bizarre..

Kim Tae Hee looks beautiful in above photo and her clothe is ok. I do not like the fashion style of SSH in the photo and he is not my type, not handsome. I prefer LBH or Kim Rae Won to pair with her.
I am exciting about this coming drama.

@ 12, tamu
articles released that My Princess will be planned to air January of next year according to SBS rep
due to Fifa World Cup, high profile dramas (Daemul, Athena, My Princess and Faith) will most likely be delayed... news are still developing, we'll have to wait for more concrete info later on

I'm extremely excited w/ this. I actually am holding out hopes that they will be surprisingly good and goofy and it'll be a funfun ride....IF they go full comical, no makjang, no melo (no SSH wailing or KTH's patented eye bulging pretty please, it'll disturb their pretty) My point is, IF they can let go and poke fun at themselves and their stardom... WOW! My head is exploding w/ GLEE just w/ that thought.
and lets be honest, Who can look away fr THIS lvl of pretty!?!? I certainly can't.

Of course you don't have to be an expert at something to be able to tell the difference between good and bad in that field. People still have a sense of judgment and observational skills. As for the plot...oh boy. And I can't believe Kim Tae Hee let them dress her up in that ridiculous outfit.

well..well..well... i know that i am already left by the train.. just finish watching IRIS... that makes me want to know about the actors including KTH... that i end up at this part of blog now (which i always love to see the recaps and comments of the dramas in this web after i watched each one of them)...
i would say i was a little bit stunned and couldn't stop reading the writing and comments in the 1st page of this section. Very interesting comments and also curious of why the producers cast both of these (that most say in comments) -beautiful & limited acting skill- actors in Kim Eun Sook's writing drama.. i really love City Hall and Lovers in Paris, how the plot and story were almost perfect... and i think these both actors will really/should be challenged in playing the characters of this drama... if they can do it perfectly, it will surely increase their image as actors...
after reading the comments... surely i would like to try also follow the drama to watch and see how they perform... just want to say "goodluck guys!"..

The writer is being a bit harsh.
This drama is actually really good, I must say Kim Tae Hee's acting has improved a lot. It's refreshing to see her in a romantic comedy.
As for Song Seung Hun, I didn't pay attention to him before and haven't watched any of his drama, so I don't know how his acting is, but from what I've seen in My Princess so far, he is doing a decent job.
Yes, the plot might seems cheesy, but it actually has some refreshing twist. Personally, I love the drama.
