Park Shin-hye heads to school for You’ve Fallen For Me

by javabeans

With the madness of all those dramas premiering and teasing and promo-ing these days, I’m not entirely sure that these are the first stills we’ve seen from Park Shin-hye’s new drama, but I think they just might be. I also have a hard time figuring out what to call this drama, whether it’s the old title Festival (which is the one that stuck in my head, unfortunately), the new one You’ve Fallen For Me (which is a little unwieldy to say), or the new English-language one Heartstrings.

Whatever you call it, trust that it’ll attract a decent youth following with its two leads, Park and her You’re Beautiful co-star/lovesick swain Jung Yong-hwa. At least that’s the hope. There’s also the “Dream High at college” premise to appeal to the fans of that show, as the characters pursue their dreams in the performing arts while, of course, also falling in love (and into love triangles) and all that drama good stuff.

The young cast also features Woori (Crime Squad) as a rival, and Jung’s CN Blue bandmate Kang Min-hyuk (who was so cute but sadly not-so-great-with-the-painfully-awkward-acting in It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl). Lee Hyun-jin was recently in the daily drama Good Day For the Wind to Blow, but I remember him more as the young gay student in Boy Meets Boy.

And for those of us who like our drama eye candy a little older (say, out of jailbait territory), there’s Song Chang-eui as a famed musical director-producer, and Jung Seo-won (Secret Garden stuntman) as his Number 2.

As for these stills, which were filmed on May 16 at Seoul Fine Arts University: Park plays the role of Lee Kyu-won, for which she cut her hair, whose look is characterized as “comfortable and trendy.” Also pretty and girlish, which is a nice change after seeing her dressed as a boy (albeit a fashion-forward idol one) for the bulk of her last drama. (Although, really: Nobody really thought she looked boyish, right?)

You’ve Fallen For Me is a Wednesday-Thursday drama on MBC, and will premiere on June 29.

Park shin hye is Super pretty but sometimes she reminds me of a bunny rabbit- deer in the headlights hybrid >.< (an adorable one ofcourse)
I think its because i recently marathoned YAB and mi nam is still fresh in my mind!
I' might give this a try if only to see Yonghwa get the girl!

yeh, for some reason "Festival" pops into my head whenever this drama is mentioned. I still can't associate the official "You've Fallen for Me" with it. I guess that's what happens when production gets greedy with drama titles...

and that's one long skirt she's got there.

Comfortable and trendy? Really? Are tucked in shirt, long skirt and tennis shoes together trendy? I guess I missed the note on that one.

if you're in the 30s don't dare wear that; neither if your a teapot (short and stout) it will be a fashion disaster.

Wasn't she to do a Taiwanese drama? or was it pulled because of anti Korean feeling that sweeps over the Chinese countries from time to time?

She looks adorable. :3 Honestly I am sincerely hoping JYH's character is something different from in YB. While I liked him well enough, his acting and being the typical Silent Idiot of the drama didn't impress me. But from the character descriptions we've gotten of him as a more arrogant type, I'm hoping he'll offer up something different from an acting stand point. Perhaps actually have some facial expressions. Maybe then I'll actually root for them unlike last time. <_<

I can't help but get excited AND worried at the same time with each new news about this drama

From the looks of it, Shin Hye appears to be playing the typical ULTRA innocent and super naive girl. (horrible horrible dress/long skirt btw lets admit it)

As for Yong Hwa being the typical "cold" and arrogant guy, you really need to add some personality and a bit of humor to these roles otherwise they'll end up being emotionless boring trainwrecks (Shin Woo anyone?) At least Hwang Tae Kyong in YAB was also funny and had a distinct personality. I wonder if Yong Hwa can pull this off? Even if he could, this drama is being labeled as a melodrama, so i doubt there's much room comedy?

I know it's too early to be judging, but these are just my paranoid suspicions as I really want this drama to succeed

I just hope the characters wont be so black and white, good/evil. Especially Shin Hye, I've had it up to here with super innocent and naive (STUPID) girl leads....seriously i hope Shin Hye will show some balls against her female rivals (whom i also hope wont be so evil for no apparent reason)

Well, i love Shin Hye...and even when i wasn't shipping for yong-hye in Yab. He will always have my support, he was in yab and i loveeeeed ,and still do, that drama. So i expect this one will be on my must watch list!!!

i thought sb might mention it, but her look is almost identical to XIAN Qing's in iswak. I hated her clothes, but then i got used to them and started to like them. Same here, it's Shin hye, so she can wear whatever she pleases, she's still great.

Let's hope her character's fashion taste evolves as she falls for YongHwa's character. Not liking the long skirt thingy. Looking forward to this drama though.
