Pants-dropping highs and bickering lows in My Love My Bride
by girlfriday
Gah, I can’t wait for this movie to come out. Jo Jung-seok (You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin) and Shin Mina (Arang and the Magistrate) are getting hitched this fall in the romantic comedy My Love My Bride, a remake of the 1990 movie starring Choi Jin-shil and Park Joong-hoon. They play newlyweds who go from happily wedded bliss to cold hard reality, as every fantasy they had about married life gets invariably shattered through funny mishap after mishap.
The posters read: “You think it’ll be like this if you get married, don’t you?” The hubby’s poster has his wife spoon-feeding him a gourmet meal, while the wife’s has her husband washing her feet. But the teaser reveals that those fantasies about marriage go out the window rather quickly, as narrator Kim Sumi describes the course of their relationship from the point of view of a wise, gossipy neighborhood grandma who’s seen it all.
The college sweethearts get married after dating for four years, and the narrator says that people always make the same promises about making each other happy. At first they’re so in love that they can’t live without each other, and we watch Jo Jung-seok drop his pants in shot after shot. Narrator: “While leaving for work, while cooking, while watching TV, day, or night…” Hee.
She says it’s all lovely and good for a time: “You think it’ll last, don’t you?” Then their relationship soon devolves, as the wife starts nagging incessantly and the husband’s eyes start to wander. She declares that she’s ashamed of him, and he sticks her face in her jajangmyun. Twice. So I guess maturity isn’t really on the menu, but I have a feeling Jo Jung-seok and Shin Mina will make petty bickering romance with a side sexy times a winning combination.
My Love My Bride hits theaters in October.

I usually hate the hair Jo Jung Seok has in the stills, but for some inexplicable reason he looks really hot in it

If they put Shin Min Na in charge of selling Korean tourism, the peninsula would sink under the weight of smitten men. And women, probably.

Shin Mina <3333333333333
It feels like forever since I last saw her in something, Arang was one of my all-time faves. (kind of want to see her movie with Park Hae-il too, now)

Gosh, I can't wait for this!
My love for Jo Jung-suk is endless anyway (think Song Jae-rim and mary proportions, kekeke) and Shin Min-ah is just awesome as well...
That face -> jjajangmyeon scene was definitely the best part, ahaha. I didn't understand a word of what they were saying (watched the trailer without the helpful explanations before) and I still laughed out loud.
And there can never be too much of oppa dropping his pants anyway :3
