Park Seo-joon and Hwang Jung-eum as Kill Me, Heal Me’s rowdy twins
by girlfriday
Cameras are rolling on the set of MBC’s new Wednesday-Thursday drama Kill Me, Heal Me, and not a moment too soon — Mr. Back ends today. It’s a good thing they’re planning to air something else for a week, because what with Kill Me, Heal Me’s casting troubles delaying the production, every minute’s got to count. At first I was a little worried that the show’s first stills are of Hwang Jung-eum and Park Seo-joon wrestling while he gags her and she fights to get free… but then I remembered that they’re playing twin siblings. At least now it makes a little more sense.
The new romantic comedy from the writer of The Moon That Embraces the Sun and the PD of Scandal stars Ji Sung as a third-generation chaebol with dissociative identity disorder, who has a total of seven personalities. Hwang Jung-eum plays the first-year psychiatry resident who becomes his secret family doctor, and a “healing romance” ensues. The actors are reuniting just a year after costarring in the KBS melodrama Secret, though this time for more laughter than tears.
Park Seo-joon and Hwang Jung-eum play twins that only recently reunited, for reasons yet unknown. Her brother’s a quirky mystery novelist who gets mistaken for a village idiot most of the time. I wonder if he’s just kind of spacey, or if he’s actually a savant. They’ll have a bickering sibling relationship that’s said to drive much of the comedy in the drama. I do love Park Seo-joon in comedy so, so much.
Also costarring is Kim Yuri (Full Sun) as an ice princess and Ji Sung’s first love, as well as Oh Min-seok, who’s enjoying a huge boost lately from his supporting role as Kang Haneul’s stick-in-the-mud boss in Misaeng. He’ll play Ji Sung’s cousin who runs an entertainment company and rivals him to inherit their family’s conglomerate.
Kill Me, Heal Me premieres January 7. Let’s hope there’s enough time for at least one teaser before the show airs!

The first teaser was great...I saw it this morning and he looks so good as a Mysterious Guy with Guyliner...and I was surprised by the fraternal twins and Nana LOL
OMG...are his fraternal twin personalities going to interact with the actual fraternal twins? I love it

I was thinking Binnies J and H drama would fill my quota for multiple personality dramas.... but with Healers Superman/clark Kent complex me thinks the void is already filled!
Live shooting for a dramas entirety is never a good sign...

Me too! Healer is already showing what multiple personality drama looks like.
Even though I will still at least one ep from Binnie and Ji Sung's dramas.

Honestly I don't want to watch this show at all but Park Seo Joon looks so cute (and much younger) with his hair like that. The struggle.

wow, no time off at all really for Oh Min-Seok.
Bickering twins sounds like something that could be fun, but with their casting woes and barely just starting with the filming, I'm not feeling all too confident about this drama...
Then again, the whole main premise of the drama doesn't do anything for me. (Could we just get a bickering twin drama instead? Something slice-of-life-ish, nothing greatly dramatic like a chaebol with 7 personalities and doctors getting together with their patients? *sigh*)

I'm sure that of the 7 personalities, five will probably make the screen for maybe a few seconds each - Ji Sung will probably spend his time playing maybe two, at most (less messy that way?)
Oh Min-seok's a busy man these days....but I guess it was manageable, because of the 70-90 minute runs of Misaeng, he wasn't actually in all of it.

Girlfriday the article is much appreciated given that it's Christmas so you'd be celebrating with family - Go have fun and be merry. Having said that Kill Me Heal Me is shaping up to a be a real drama given that it has had some drama of its own.

Actually,both of them are not a twin...one of them is adopted, and they knew this secret... PSJ may have more than sibling's love toward HJM...

I'm looking forward to this cause I love HJE and like her and JS together in secret.
That said, HJE needs to stop getting her face done. I didn't notice it before and always thought she was gorgeous but these pictures are so evident. It's become such a distraction and I'm sure that's not what she wants as an actress

Her face has bothered me for a long time. Her nose, forehead (I think it's been filled because it's unnaturally round?) and chin. Maybe lips? I don't think they've all been done, but i conjunction they look weird.
BUT, Secret made me change my mind. Her face still feels unnatural to me, but her acting is good enough that I'm able to get over her face. Ugh her crying scenes were so sad :(

On what planet do they look the same age? Well I suppose with that awful hairstyle they've managed to make him look older (why?! Didn't even realise it was possible to make him look bad *sad face*). Love Ji Sung, don't particularly like her, storyline doesn't appeal, so I'll pass.

It has some similiarities to other dramas...
1. Psychiatric Patient - Doctor relationship such as Jang Jae Yeol and Ji Hae Soo (It's okay, it's love)
2. Park Seo Joon will be a quirky novelist, like Jang Jae Yeol (It's okay, it's love) who is confused to be a village idiot just like in (Pinochio) with Choi Dal Po.
But still, I am very excited to watch!!!!

I screamed 'No!!!!!' when I read 'healing romance' cause for a second I thought I saw 'killing romance' and I really want to put that drama behind me. Excited for this show though, I totally loved HJE and JS in Secret and I had to keep reminding myself that he was married to keep from shipping them.

Ji Sung!!! Really like him and I loved Secret too.
But I have a hard time looking at Hwang Jung-eum's face :(
I really liked the first drama I saw her in, She looked soo pretty in Can you hear my voice and I still love her acting. It's just her face looks so unnatural now that a close up shot of her face creeps me out.
Of course it's her choice, her decision, not forgetting that.
It's just... cant shake off the çreepy feeling :(
