Jang Geun-seok and Kim Haneul wrap You’re My Pet
by javabeans
Phew, well that’s a relief! You’re My Pet, the Korean movie remake of the popular Japanese manga and drama, has finally wrapped, successfully ending a production period that has seen its share of setbacks.
I wouldn’t call it a troubled shoot, per se, because from what I can see from stills and behind-the-scenes snapshots, it appears to be a fun, bubbly set with two adorable leads — Jang Geun-seok and Kim Haneul — who look like they share cute chemistry, and maybe some hair products. Oh heck, they practically share the same hair, all long and flowy and silky smooth. Kim Haneul has long been a star noted for her enviable hair, and Jang Geun-seok looks to be her male counterpart; even his drama character in Mary Stayed Out All Night was pretty protective of his beloved conditioner.
But that aside, the movie did take its time getting started, after first casting Jang back in April 2010. There were delays getting production started, until finally things got going this spring. So I’m relieved to hear all has ended well, and now we can look forward to actually seeing the darned thing.
In any case, the crew called it a wrap on August 28, and the two photos above come from that last day on set, with Jang and Kim celebrating their approximately 100-day shoot with a cake. I’m pretty sure that cake says 1000, but it really is 100 days, not three years (thank goodness for that!), so maybe somebody forgot how to count. Or…maybe 1000 stands for something else. Wild speculations, go!
Kim Haneul said, “It feels like I’ve run a long road, and now we’ve finished. I enjoyed filming this, so I have high expectations. You’re My Pet fighting!”
A brief refresher on the plot: Kim plays a successful modern careerwoman who’s good at everything except her love life. Jang plays a former ballet dancer who becomes her “pet” at first, and their relationship develops from pet/owner (yeah, it’s a weird concept) to friends to more.
You’re My Pet now goes into post, with plans to release later in the year.

if I'm not mistaken, in Japanese version Sumire chan (Kim Haneul character) is 30 something and JGS's character is way younger and smaller in size bcoz he's a ballet dancer. So the Korean coupling is quite accurate

As always, Ha-neul showcase her unique ability to have onscreen chemistry with every man she works with...though Matsumoto Jun is the better believable cute male pet as Jang exhibits a more feminine traits, their chemistry is undeniably present. Hoping for another Box Office result film for Ms Kim ;D

Are you British? Because in America it doesn't matter which way the palm faces, they're both generally understood to mean "peace" or "victory." Maybe it doesn't matter in Korea either.

JGS, please cut your hair all short again, like the one in "Beethoven Virus." :)

He said he will cut it next year. I think because his new drama happens in 2 different generations, he needs to show a difference by having different hairstyle. So probably one with longer hair, the other with shorter hair. However, i think he might trim a little this year.
Btw, i do not understand the hate. I love his hair. And Japanese love his long hair. It also makes him stand out among all Korean artists. However, i am glad as a professional actor, he is willing to change his hairstyle and image according to the character.
I think i read that the korean version is a bit different from the original. I hope fans of the drama or manga can be more open-minded to the new adaptation. I also hope that the movie would be good. The stills look nice and i am surprised the two of them look really compatible. Looking forward to this movie. Looks like a fun and interesting movie.
I think i read somewhere that 1000 represents something about box office.

I don't get the hair hate either, his hair is gorgeous! It looks so healthy and shiny. I see so many longer haired guys with long, scraggly, unhealthy hair. Nothing is less attractive than that.
Some people keep saying he looks 1) too feminine or even 2) 'gay' with the haircut, but 1) all he has to do is move or speak and you can tell he's all man, and 2) I'm pretty sure having long hair or short has nothing to do with a person's sexual latency. Not that it's any of our business anyway.
It doesn't really matter how he wears his hair, he is one beautiful man.
*Pause for breath*
In related news, I cannot wait to see this movie! I heard it was going to be released here in Japan just after the release in Korea so I'm stoked!

JGS was actually very good in dealing with roles given to him, be it in form of acting like a 30 year old police guy or a guy with OCD in his twenties,, he just nail those roles and make's a feckin awesome result.
I wanna see his hair to get shorter, not because he looked to girly on his do now but because his face looked so thin (ever tried to eat out in osaka seukkie? Have a feast please,, eat some!) and I guess a good haircut will tell him that he needs to load up. Time to put some spicy crabs on your tummy boy,,,
I drool to look forward for the film's premiere date. Time to feed the ''Eels'' seukkiee,,

OK. Not going to lie, JGS looks like an ahjumma trying to hustle me cake in the second picture. All I can is there is no need for hustling; where sugar is involved, I'm sold. Glad to see the movie has wrapped up filming; I'm looking forward to seeing it...especially in terms of how it stands up to the original. :3

I'm glad they kept the character description of Sumire instead of changing it like they had planned in the beginning. Hopefully this will be as good as the jdorama version, Koyuki and Matsujun were great in it.

What's going on with Jang Geun-seok's hair tied back with that wavy strand on the side (first and second pix). It reminds me of that bitchy girl in Scent of a woman. I like his hair down or all back or short.

I do envy their hair. Mine is crap right now. I'm in desperate need of a haircut and awesome shampoo/conditioner. I wonder what they use?
Ya know he should grow out his hair and then give it to locks of love. I'm sure any little girl/boy would love to have his hair.

@nell123 thanks for the answer. 9 years is not too big for an age gap. Though i find him too skinny for his size now. If the role must be that of a much younger guy, he shouldve cut his hair. He looks better that way

as per jap drama version, "Momo" the pet should have long wavy hair. As he was named after a shaggy dog the "owner" had in her childhood...
Even though I hate his hair, I withstand it, thinking its a must for this role...

I too feel it's a weird plot. Even for a movie. I think Jdramas differ from Kdramas in their weird plotting and quirky characters. And lots of preaching about life lessons. You often have caricatures of people in Jdramas. Kdramas are more fun and entertaining. I hope the Kdramas don't go the way of Jdrama.

J-dramas have their own charm. It depends on what style you gravitate to.
Speaking of jdramas Jang Geun Suk has a cameo role in episode 8 of YAB remake Ikemen Desu Ne. I swear Yuta Tamamori is going to give JKS a run for his money. He is adorable and freaking cute in his role as the A.N. Jell leader Ren Katsuragi.

I am so excited to see this movie. However I am a little afraid how they maked it into the movie. I mean I saw Japanesse version and it was brilliant. Anyway let´s believe that writers made a good plot. I´m also excited about Jang Geun-seok being Momo because I always enjoy his charakters and this remake needs a really good actor to stend against Goda Takeshi . Well let´s look forward to it!
