Lee Min-ki makes a cameo in Shut Up: Flower Boy Band
by javabeans
Is this a fitting cameo or what? Lee Min-ki will be making a special appearance in tvN’s upcoming Shut Up: Flower Boy Band, playing a rocker. His character, Byung-hee, leads his band with his “4-D charm and musical talent, possessing both charisma and a pure spirit.” He has a big influence on the music scene of which the drama’s main characters are a part, and may be just a little bit crazy.
This is pretty much perfect casting, as far as I’m concerned, because it fits his image to a tee. In fact, Lee Min-ki would’ve been the ideal hero for a drama like this if he were younger, or if it had come earlier in his career; he is to the pretty-but-tough-rocker image what Jang Geun-seok is to the pretty-boy idol image. Plus, as we know, Lee Min-ki has a pretty strong interest in music himself; he put out an album and has performed live in the past.
Lee Min-ki’s cameo will only span two episodes, but that’s the nature of cameos, I suppose. His appearance is attributed to his connection to producer Park Sung-hye, the head of the Oh Boy Project, who was also the reason for Kim Hye-soo‘s cameo in Episode 1 of Flower Boy Ramyun Shop.
Shut Up: Flower Boy Band will premiere on January 30 and run for 16 episodes on tvN.

yup, remember this one. the girl was yoon eun hye, when they asked him to sing for her he sucked badly cause he's so out of tune due to his nerves. i think he also admitted publicly that he likes her.

I think he has improved a lot. He is one of those singers who needs the song to fit his (limited) vocal range. I really like his album, No Kidding -- it's very different from most of what's out there in k-pop land. Something I always enjoy in Minki's acting performances is his peculiar way of speaking - I think it's the dialect but also line delivery style - and the songs bring out the best of that.

i am so anticipating the drama...
i hope it doesn't disappoint me...
it's been a while since LMK's last appearance in tv, isn't it?
miss him so much...
by the way, i am not very into the actors in this drama actually
a part from sung joon, whom i loved in White Christmas, the others are rather newbie and idols... i am not very into singers turned actors...
let's see what they will bring...
and about the female lead? any clue?

* I'm not a resident neither Canada or USA.
Last year was the year I caught the k-drama fever. And also the year of my SAT's (or vestibular - how they're called in my country, Brazil). I was studying practically 8 hours a day, but still made time to feed my addiction. My mom first thought that it was very irresponsible - which it was - but i converted her too and brought her to the dark side.
Fortunately I passed, YAY! Thanks to countless sleepless nights - either watching the latest episode of my crack dramas or reviewing for the tests.
I'm in no way encouraging anyone to follow in my foot steps because this was not healthy! I'm getting all the sleep I want this year. Or at least that's my new year's resolution. It's a bit hard when my k-drama to watch keeps getting bigger and my spare time keeps getting "smaller".
I'm sorry for any mistakes in gramar or anything. English is not my first language. Also sorry for the long rant. There's somethings we just need to get it out =D

Another reason for me to tune in since I only had mild interest in this drama (mainly the rocker pretty boys).
So excited...he looks so hot in those teaser pictures. I wish his appearance was longer, it's been a long time since he's been on the small screen.

Yay! He should do another drama. Now that I've watched a few 30 episode dramas and am watching the 58 episode (!) Ojakgyo Brothers, I've got to put I Really, Really Like You back on my list.
I feel like Kim Jae Wook should also do a cameo for this.

Heads up! From his recent 2012 Spring photoshoot for The Class (I think), Min Ki is sporting black studs on both earlobes! Even his "hope" video message for Spellbound reaching 3million tickets sold has Min Ki sporting earrings. So don't be surprised if you should happen to see them in his cameo role!

I like him (: I think he's great. I recently watched his movie "Quick" and it was great! Ultra funny and so much action. I kind of wish he was cast in this. I mean...he barely looks older than anyone else in the drama, honestly.

wait if he was younger? why? what does age have to do with it? D: does flower boy dramas only have people who are below a certain age? f that. D: he was GREAT in the drama! the way he died had me brawling. BRING HIM BACK! Throughout the first 2 episodes I could already see how close they are so when he died I could totally understand the boys feelings D: he needs to come back...seriously it won't be the same without him..
