I would say Cinderella's Sister attempted the pessimist heroine and optimist hero, don't you think? ;)

But anyways, I'm definitely looking forward to the movie trailer!

hello, is it me you're looking for?

...sorry, couldn't resist.

OOHHH looks good! Can't wait to see it!!

Can't wait to watch this movieeeeeeeeee!

Is it bad that I already got emotional just by looking at these stills?! Damn, they're good..

She looks so pretty in the promo posters.

This looks good - provided he doesn't kill himself so she can have his eyes to see......
:)

Here here for a nihilistic heroine! I mean, we all know that women looooooove to fix their men, albeit purely on the strength of their amazing goodness and self-lessness, but come on. Let's shake things up!

Wouldn't Song Joong-ki be just a perfect hero to emanate purity and goodness at, say Ha Ji-won's jaded ex-cop? Or something similar? Plus, there would be noona-dongsaeng love, which is a Thing right now, so it would compensate! I love it. Get right on that, Chungmuro! I'm waiting for those promo posters!

No wonder he does these movies/dramas. He has this like perpetual sad face or something. Makes me want to hug him.

For someone who is blind, her fashion sense is a lot better than mine -____-

Cheerful hero/cold, withdrawn heroine was done pretty well in Dr. Champ, I thought, but then it wasn't straight romance and the hero got pretty angsty in the second half. Still, he was ADORABLE when he was all puppyish following her around!

So ji sub..so much pathos in his eyes! Such an amazing actor. :)

I want him on a platter!

Wow; the posters and stills look great! I'm anticipating this :D

Gosh, this poster seem very beautiful & these pictures are very interesting, ofc. =)

Aigoo, I don't understand why I'm still admiring So Ji Sub toooo much, fufufu! So Ji Sub, Fighting! =D

she is so beautiful

Why do I love Ji-Sub with his messy look?! He looks so bad-ass hot everytime he has that messy sad look (reminiscent of I'm Sorry I Love You)? And damn, he didn't look a year older at all...

Not too many can pull off this plot, nihilistic heroine+optimistic hero, oh but anyway it got Ji Sub and Hyo Joo, so I'll go for it....

*sighs* Korean hotties w/ permed hair....

For some reason, I'm getting Snow Queen flashes due to the concept...
maybe it's the boxing/sick girl thing? :D

What is up w/ his hair? (That perm has to go.)

i think i'll be watching this just because the pictures are so pretty.

Is this the cinematic interpretation of Lionel Richie's Hello MV? I kinda have faith in the director and therefore look forward to this movie

"Just once I’d like to see that dynamic flipped — nihilistic heroine paired with an optimistic hero. Just to mix things up a little, you know what I mean? Why does it always have to be the pure, sweet woman who turns around the man’s dark/cold/emotionally inaccessible worldview?"

Ha, Ha! Good Point Javabeans. I guess we will get to see that in you're my pet. I hope. :)

Another one calling out for some flipflops in the conventions.

Also I'm calling it right now - someone is going to kiss the statue head. *sigh* Ever since MARS it seems to be everywhere.

Not again. I cannot watch these. They make me want a drink before I start the show. Waiting for light hearted SJS to show up.

love han hyojoo! and so jisub too but why does so ji sub have to look scruffy looking everytime!! lol

The posters are pretty. But I wish to see him in a rom-com drama someday.

"Why does it always have to be the pure, sweet woman who turns around the man’s dark/cold/emotionally inaccessible worldview?"

you forgot Miss Ripley dear JB! well, until the happy sweet innocent energizer puppy turns into a steely dark emo baby dragon that is~ ^^

So Ji Sub in the picture with the tattoo reminds me of Cha Seung Won without the Cow-stache.

I thought the dynamic was flipped pretty well in 'You are My Sunshine' with Hwang Jung Min and Jeon Do Yeon. =)

I love So Ji Sub's eyes.

i can't wait to watch this..
so ji sub looks so sad and loveable..
can't wait!

Love all the comments about the "bad" perm as I agree. I'm very devoted to Sonick (So) and I know he can pull off many images but I don't like the perm to be truthful.

I too would love to see him in something funny (other than Sophie's Choice) as I don't think his character in that movie had that many comical traits.

He has a beautiful face that can portray the most angst of men and he's brilliant at what he does best but for once it would be great to see him happy for 1hr and 30mins (or 20 episodes)!, Though I'll be in the queue like everyone else to see Only You.

Cold, messed up heroine and optimistic, cheerful hero? Take Care of the Young Lady was like that. And then everyone proceeded to call the main character a bitch :/

Anyway Han Hyo-joo excels at playing this type of character. Just watch Brilliant Legacy and Dong Yi. But she's charming and sweet so I like her anyway, lol.

check this interesting video, it's about the same thing in hollywood - tropes vs women: the manic pixie dream girl http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqJUxqkcnKA

i wonder if various media (from books to movies) implanted the idea of being the fairy that changes a tortured (usually) jerk into the female psyche (since apparently many women actually love it) or women are by nature vain ego maniacs who believe that they can change the cold blooded man and make him love only them which in turn will fuel their vanity ("oh i'm oh so special to have reached his soft side").

i really see no difference between a cold blooded bitch and a cold blooded bastard, but it is apparently believed that every jerk has a good/kind side to them, whereas every bitch is a bitch to the core. double standards. and may i say, it's our own fault (i mean us women)

looking forward to this though, because of so ji sub

I think in My beloved Sister , the hero is so happy,cheerful , and supporting...i belive he's a good expample of uncommon males...also Park Yong ah's in on air, Lee Bum Soo too, they were quite optimistic and charming, the girls were pretty bitchy...oh God, how i loved them!!!

I don't know So Ji Sub's acting, but he will always remind me of PYH they were best friends-

hmmm/////

I am really looking forward to the "my pet"-movie... it is more or less like that, with a male lead who is cheerful and slightly ditzy and a female lead who is succesful and serious. At least the manga and the Japanese drama were like that.

ps. First post... have spent the last few weeks reading all posts from 2007 (Coffee Prince) till now.... really enjoyed reading the recaps since it reminded me of the time I was watching them myself :)

Thank you! You have a new fan :)

So Ji Sup is definitely one of my favorite Korean actors ... if only he'll make a romcom drama one of these days. You forgot about Glass Slippers, always playing a tragic character which causes me to almost flip out because everything on the drama was going good till the end .

One of these days, please please So Ji Sup, make a romcom drama. Miss watching your shows, but I'm getting tired of melodramas.

han hyo joo is one of my fave actresses, next to ha ji won and thai actress called ann... i wish this movie would be good, but so ji sub always acted in the same 'character'...sad,dark..*sigh* life isn't that bad..haha, but i like him as an actor..good luck!

looking down through the photos thinking this is watch-worthy, and came to the piggyback ride pic and just laughed my head off. gosh, even the stills are stereotypical.
