Song Joong-ki with scarecrow buddy for Vogue
by girlfriday
Is it just me, or do the Yoo Ah-in and Song Joong-ki photo shoots always come in pairs? Well they do both have movies getting ready to premiere. Song’s rom-com Penny-Pinching Romance with Han Ye-seul premieres in a few weeks, where he plays a broke, girl-crazy slacker. Well, a CUTE broke, girl-crazy slacker. He is played by Song Joong-ki, after all. He says that he took the role to shake things up and “break my image,” which is always fun to see. Here he poses for Vogue‘s November issue with a scarecrow friend, because… nothing says high fashion like a stick-thin figure dressed in clothes? Waitaminute.
He’s also been blazing up the small screen of late, in his short stint as the young King Sejong the Great in SBS’s Tree With Deep Roots. It’s short enough of a run to be a cameo, except well, again it’s Song Joong-ki. He’s got critics abuzz over his emotional performance, and audiences clamoring for more.
In his interview with Vogue, he said, “It was only about four episodes, but I thought it was worth more than most miniseries leading roles. My role was to portray being trapped in the prison of Taejong [he’s referring metaphorically to King Sejong’s father] and breaking free from it. There has to be a foundation laid down so that Han Seok-kyu sunbaenim’s King Sejong can be accepted.”
Tree With Deep Roots airs on SBS on Wednesday-Thursday, and Penny-Pinching Romance premieres November 10.

I never thought "That man looks adorable holding that scarecrows hand" would be a sentence I would ever think but there is a first for everything I guess.

Alas, living in Kdrama land has programmed all male actors to only see arms from the wrist up.

Tee hee! So true.
***in my best Houdini voice***: Look below the wrist, below the wrist where you'll see those magical things called "h-a-n-d-s".

Fun fact: in the clubs here in Seoul my wrists are often grabbed by strange (as in unknown, not as in weird, although they might be weird for all I know) men. I've come to the conclusion that it's an actual thing and doesn't exist solely in Kdramas. Dammit.

Another fun fact: the wrist grab is done because holding hands means they're very close to each other. It's more of a respect thing to not hold someone's hand randomly. I wondered this too, so I asked my Korean friend and that's what she told me.

Is it weird that that explanation actually made sense to me? And I laugh at the thought of a kdrama hero grabbing the wrist of his heroine, only to find out (a little too late) she has a spiky bracelet on. Heehee.

Yeah, me too, but it'd have to be 30 years younger, lol. And my daughter isn't quite old enough to be into plastering her walls with boys yet. Almost, though. I need to get her hooked on a few that I like to look at too, lol.

Wonder how he'll look with a boys-to-men transformation ala Kim Bum? You can almost see the man he will be in the last shot, if you squint a little.

It's really cool to see both Yoo Ah-in and Song Joong-ki a year later doing these awesome movies. I really think SKKS put them on the map.
But aww, so CUTE. I can't wait to watch Penny-Pinching Romance! Which I guess will be a while, since I have to wait for it to hit the interweb world.
Ahh, I'm so tempted to start watching Tree With Deep Roots. And you guys I have someone recapping it too. I'm so torn.

I was just thinking that the scarecrow is the stand-in for his true love. A metaphor kind of.
I have someone in mind for him and QT and Conan seem to be sharing my affliction (some would call it a delusion but I don't want to be cured.

What have they been doing to the magazine I tried so hard to establish in the U.S.
This just won't do. This editorial just won't do.
I will call Conde Nast Office so they could remove Vogue from this country.

The photos looked so nice and just fun to look at, even though the scarecrow was supposed to you know...scare you.
Anyway, I really don't mind Joong-Ki and Ah-In photo spreads coming in pairs. Bring em on!

The last picture reminds me of "American Gothic" if only he were holding a pitchfork! I like it though; I guess this is the better looking Korean version.
