Character stills for the main cast of Two Weeks

54 July 24, 2013

by javabeans

I know, more stills of dramas that should JUST AIR ALREADY. Screw the photos, I want DRAMA PLZ.

(Sometimes the hype machine is a lot of fun, but only when it’s timed just right—an art in itself, perhaps. Strategic teases can be entertaining, but you drag it out too long and then it turns into Are we there yet? *Poke poke* Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself? Mooo~ooom! What, you’ve never done a ten-hour road trip with fifty cousins and an RV to Yellowstone? Good times.)

To be fair, MBC’s action-thriller Two Weeks has been much more sparing in its promo than some other dramas, ahem, but these dramas are all airing in the summer clusterfuck and they all start to meld together in my mind. That could also be the heat. But also the repetitiveness.

Annnnyway, here are four character stills of the drama’s leads: Lee Jun-ki as the fugitive who totally didn’t kill that person he woke up covered in blood next to, Kim So-yeon as the prosecutor chasing him down, Ryu Soo-young as the detective also chasing him down, and Park Ha-sun as his ex and baby momma. I do like how speaking these images are; they give us an instant idea of what to expect of each character, and are pretty to boot.

Two Weeks premieres on August 7, after current Wednesday-Thursday drama Queen of the Classroom wraps.

Thank you, these stills and new teaser look awesome! I thought this show has more than I thought even the base stroy line may be the same with Mandate of heaven, I think two weeks will be way more interesting and complicated! And Joongi on the run, being Sexy with blood and does many disguising,bl it would be a heaven for eyes! He get more and more handsome. .. more handsome than Kai from TBWAD, love the show already

From the Character translation I read, he did it in purpose to keep In Hye safe because the Boss treat him to hurt her. He wants her to go away and live her life in peace

LOL at your comment.

I'm guessing there's a nobly idiotic reason for not continuing the relationship in the past.

Who also think that Ryu Soo Young looks like Kim Soo Ro in that picture? I thought for a second that Kim Soo RO joined the cast.

I did too...!!!
and I was like "huh JSW not the main lead..?"
and I read its RYS, I was a little disappointed cause I super love JSW.. but when I realized that he was the smexy professor in My Princess..OhMyGolly, was I excited...!

I dont know why but I got this feeling that he will fit in the action triller...!
Those stills feels like its jumping out...!!!
This will be my first drama of him in action so I'm totally looking forward to him winging and banging and shooting it!!!

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 more weeks for 2 weeks to start. It's actually the only one I'm looking forward to. Lee Jun Ki and Ryu Soo-Young? Together? in ONE drama? I think everyone is already saying yes. They even threw in a bonus of Kim So-yeon.

I guess the problem with the 'hype machine' is that LDMU (Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility) starts to set in once you over promote smth and it still hasn't aired. It's a pity cos ppl start losing interest even after you put in so much effort to tease the audience. *yes heirs I'm talkin to ya*

Really, it would be so much better if she were handling a glock with a silencer. Or caressing a lawbook. Or posing in an evening gown. Or just not hidden almost completely by a car.

Ahh I've been excited for this drama for a while and these stills along with the new teaser are killing me ;w; I can't wait for Aug. 7th!

Also, I know some others have been noticing it, but Jun Ki looks a little thin, hopefully he's doing well with the demanding and busy schedules of filming.

Lee Jun-ki as the fugitive who totally didn’t kill that person he woke up covered in blood next to

this drama won't be worth anything if lee jun-ki's chara did NOT kill that person. i'm just going to bet against myself that he did kill her (the person's a woman, or so it seems from the teaser) and wait and see if i'm right.
if he's a killer - even if he doesn't remember or can't believe he did it - then it really is a drama. if he's just an innocent on the run and there's the police force in all its glory after him, then i saw that already and it had harrison ford and tommy lee jones in it. also, they had already established guilt and punishment via a trial, which i'm assuming this drama will skip because 2 weeks is too short to have the trial :D

so yeah, lee jun-ki's chara is guilty, but even so his misson to save the daughter is against time and he should be given it to save her. then he can go to jail lol.

re: the overpromotion, it's easy to remember and plan to watch:

- 2 weeks is lee jun-ki on the run, looking slim and much harassed; and i for one like his clean jaw line. he might look underfed, but i think he looks a bit older and more experienced for it. suits him just fine :D

- good doctor is joowon playing at forrest gump but with a knife heheh. in the teasers he doesn't act like he has asperger's but the syndrome has been so misrepresented already in media-land that almost no one will know the difference, probably.

- heirs is the one where i get to see if choi jin-hyuk gets his next big break. so far, this is the one i'm pretty worried about, so many stars, so many ambitions, what about the plot? most of them shouldn't play college people, they should actually go about making their own lives already. i hope the "kids' show" ends quickly and then they move on to being actual "heirs". oh, and that choi jin-hyuk outclasses them all :D

i actually hope he is guilty too. make for an interesting drama to have writers make me root for a legitmate bad guy, and not good in bad clothing (Cruel City, every drama chaebol).

He can be guilty of the murder without being a "bad guy" or villian. Who knows, maybe the victim deserved it. Maybe she attacked him first and the struggle ended with her death.

But, while I wouldn't mind him being guilty, I have the feeling this drama will play him as the innocent on the run / conspiracy against / pawn type.

Arang was a great drama but it seems it wasn't a hit according to ratings. But I love it all the same XD
But for the sake of the actors, hope this drama is a hit in terms of quality and also ratings!
