Sulli and Min-ho’s couple shoot for Vogue Girl

Well don’t they look pretty together. The stars of the upcoming gender-bendy rom-com To the Beautiful You have already jumped on the couple photo shoot bandwagon in a spread for Vogue Girl, sporting very similar looks, as drama heroes and their crossdressing heroines are wont to do. Why not do some drama promo and get some practice snuggles down in the meantime? It’s a win-win.

The remake of Hana Kimi stars f(x)’s Sulli as a girl who poses as a boy to go to an all-boys’ athletic school, and SHINee’s Min-ho as the hero, Kang Tae-joon, a genius high jumper. I… don’t even know what a genius high jumper is or how he differs from a regular high jumper, but in any case, he hits a slump that pushes our heroine Gu Jae-hee into dressing up as a boy to be by his side.

She’s no more stripped of her girlish looks than any of the crossdressing actresses before her (funny to think how many, actually), but that’s never been a strict rule of the genre. We just go with it, like we believe in body swaps and time jumps and genius chaebol heroes. Everyone will believe she’s a boy and that’s that. Gender-bending aside though, the look is really cute on her.

The 16-episode drama promises fun and fluff. Let’s pray to ye drama gods that it also comes with a beating heart. To the Beautiful You premieres August 8 on SBS.

I'll admit I'm wary of this one. Only because like a lot of this comments posted so far, I really did love the Japanese version-the 2007 one to be exact-better premise, great cast, just the right amount of zany craziness that made it fun and lovable but didn't lose it's comic book feel. Didn't bother with the 2011 one. As for the Taiwanese one... yeah I barely made it through the first episode of that version and that's all I'm going to say about that.

I do have to give props to the casting director from a visual standpoint that is one pretty looking cast. And the preview, as short as it is, looks rather promising.

Although it always amuses me in these gender bending dramas that all a girl has to do is chop off the locks, throw on some boys clothes and BAM! she's a dude now. When in reality she kind of looks like a twelve year old boy, a very, very feminine twelve year old boy.

well, originally (I mean in the comic) the heroine looked like a cute boy that would look pretty as a girl. she's not perfect for the role YET, she will prove it when we see the drama.. I like Sulli though :D

I'll keep an eye out for this drama. I'm not a big fan of Sulli, shes my second least favorite member in f(x), but after watching Sulli in Punch Lady I recognized her talent, and that is acting...she should just be an actress instead of an idol. She doesn't really have that idol charm IMO. She was really good in Punch Lady, and she also played the tom-boyish character in that movie, so I have FAITH in her role. I'm not to sure about Minho though....Although, if this drama sucks, I know I can look forward to LEE-MIN-HOT in Faith....he has never let me down thus far and the teaser look amazing so far....OTL!

the same discussions goes on and on again

1) amber should play the role. UH NO. not an actress, not good in korean, not feminine enough. end of discussion.

2) hana kimi japanese ver. is better. OOKAY probably but heres to hoping this one will suceed as well. period.

3) wae sulli? because she's good. talented child actress. see previous works including 'punch lady.' period.

4) drama will flop. who knows? did you see it yet? NO.

another thing, maybe because im surrounded by asians that i do not think sulli looks like taemin. 0.0???

all in all this is a light fun dramedy. i personally dont expect much but i still anticipate and hope it will do well.

AND hello! Does anyone not see how beautiful the photos turn out? I'm mesmerize by SSUL. Ya'll know she's pretty even if ya'll dont think she's as pretty as your bias but she is still pretty.
