Song Jae-rim romances an unkind woman
by javabeans
girlfriday: So… you know that drama that Song Jae-rim was considering? He’s doing it now.
javabeans: Oh. Unkind Women, you mean? About three generations of… unkind women?
girlfriday: Yes. See how the title speaks for itself?
javabeans: So he’s going to romance Lee Hana (High School King of Savvy)… who I like… I guess… and I also don’t have any problems with dramas about less-than-conventionally-pleasing heroines… but also KBS is telling us nothing other than that three generations of unkind women will be played by Kim Hye-ja (Mother), Chae Shi-ra (Iron Empress), and Lee Hana. So… not much to get excited about.
girlfriday: Yeah it’s more like a family weekend drama plot, but it’s airing on Wednesday-Thursday for some odd reason.
javabeans: Well, if the drama doesn’t give me a reason to get excited, I’ll have to create my own reasons. By which I mean posting Song Jae-rim’s abs. Remember when he looked like this?
girlfriday: I DO remember that. That’s pretty much the main thing I remember about him — I thought he looked like a really pretty, really airheaded surfer dude.
javabeans: Korea’s answer to Keanu Reeves, you mean.
girlfriday: Is that a question that needed an answer?
javabeans: Probably not, but hey, extra photos never hurt anybody. I do feel like it’s worth pointing out that Song Jae-rim seems too good for a lot of the stuff he acts in… but that’s his decision, so also, maybe it’s his cross to bear.
girlfriday: At least this time he’ll play the hero and get the girl, and stop being the OTP-killer that he is in every other drama.
javabeans: This is the assumption. But let’s not assume anything with Song Jae-rim, because knowing him, he’ll find a way to crush our hopes and end up single and sad anyway. I still can’t believe I sat through Nail Shop Paris, 95% because of him. And 95% of 10 hours is 9.5 hours, which is how much time he now owes me.
girlfriday: I’m sure he can do a lot in 9.5 hours.
javabeans: Here’s a retrospective, to spur your imaginations. Not that your imaginations needed spurring.
girlfriday: Mary, I think this is your cue.

I may really need to watch him in something one of these days, but Unkind woman doesn't seem like it'll be the one :sadface:
I only know him from wgm (which btw -so sexy he makes cheesy hot!-) and that he and a mary here are inexorably linked.
Speaking of, hi mary! we've never spoken but I lurk here lots and read about you lots so just thought I'd say hi haha =D

Yeah. A lot of us have sat through some of his not so stellar shows just to watch him. (Hello age of feeling) cause he's a rather charismatic scene stealer. I hope he will be able to grab a great project in the future as he continues to prove himself and grow as an actor. Wouldnt have thought that for a dude like him variety would be the kind of area he made the most impact and success in compared to the drama world but congrats on his most recent best rookie award at MBC entertainment awards.
Unfortunately it seems like he'll be suffering yet another one of those variety + drama commitments simultaneously so his health will certainly take a toll. Hope his wgm wifey will tone down her punishments and beating threats and give him some much needed love drugs.

"Hope his wgm wifey will tone down her punishments and beating threats and give him some much needed love drugs" this line cracks me up!.
Lets hope they will last for 50 episodes or more in that show. They will surely get more than 200M of love ;)

But Rim was stressed about being "served" in that Obedient Wife episode.
So-eun should increase his beatings and threats to energize him instead.

Damnnn....
I was browsing through the comments to find a SJR project to try (to see if he can actually act), but none of them interest me or I already tried and dropped them (like Flower Boy Ramyun Shop).
Just the pretty doesn't do it for me. :-/

January 9, 2015 at 3:39 AM
while I agree that a pretty face alone isn't enough but to his defense, he's never really got any challenging role where he could display whatever skills he has. he's showed some potential but the roles were so limited he couldn't really do much (much to our general chagrin and frustration) so we're still waiting for when he is offered something he really can work with to make a final a judgment

Haha~ Just a few hours ago, in the most recent Healer thread, I wrote "Cherkell is to Ji Chang-wook as Mary is to Song Jae-rim. And if you don’t know who Mary is, well then you need to hang around dramabeans a little longer". That didn't take long!
I hope uri Rim gets Kim So-eun, mary, or another equally awesome woman in real life, 'cause the wonderfully devoted cheezeball is clearly meant to be in love.
I hope the women in this drama aren't too unkind for long. Looking forward to seeing SJR and LH together~ I'm fond of both of them.

Song Jae-rim has an irrepressible charm about him, can't quite pin it down. He can definitely channel the personality of the characters I've seen him cast in. Have recently found a site to watch "We Got Married"; I like all the current cast, but Song Jae-rim has a special place in this mother's heart -- he will make a wonderful husband someday. Can't believe he's almost 30.

SJR's squee-worthy in wgm, if you haven't watched it, you should!
Him and Kim So Eun are the ultimate reality couple that makes you want to ship them through high water and hell fires just to get a glimpse of their lovable skinship. If you just walk into the Soompi thread shipping these two, you'll be like "OMO! You, byuntaes!", coz that's how much love the SoLim couple recieves. If you haven't watched wgm SoLim episodes, watch it now! They're the "IT" Couple these days. Hell, they even won a couples award.
About Lee Hana, I'm not much excited. To be truthful, I stopped watching High School King Of Savvy because of her. I started because of SIG, but I didn't like the lack of chemistry between her and SIG. And SIG had amazing chemistry with Jung Eun Ji in Reply 1997. It's the only drama I've watched of Lee Hana, and I don't like her. Don't bash me, it's just my opinion. And it has nothing to do with my love for SoLim couple. I just don't like Lee Hana's over-reactions. Younger stars do better.
Anyway, the title of this upcoming drama is weird and somehow portrays Rimmie, imo, as a playboy. Loving women of three generations? That's hard work, dude, even for the King Of Cheese and the founder of Kim So Eun's softer real side. I hope he wins throughout, won't get hurt, won't hurt any woman and get the girl by the end of the day.
Also, can I suggest a Kim So Eun cameo yelling, "Nampyeon!"

Ditto! I stopped watching HSKS because of Lee Hana too. I originally started it out of love for SIG because I really liked him in Reply 1997 but for the love of mercy, I cannot get past Lee Hana's acting. I thought it was just me. I'm glad someone out there felt the same way. :)

jensredshoes, the funny thing is that prior to WGM, SJR's image was that of a mysterious, cold and aloof badass. With the exception of his role in Nail Shop Paris (which I think most people haven't watched), all of his more well-known roles were literal badasses on both the good and evil sides. So this last year has really been a revelation to see his cuter and more charming side in WGM and shows like Surplus Princess. And then there's Mo Il Hwa, who's cheeky, badass, charming and mysterious all in one. Go take a look when you get the chance!

Ooo, thanks for episode guide! I had been wanting to check out his scenes b/c I heard good things about the character, but didn't want to sift through the recaps to figure out which eps to watch. Now I just need to have some sembalence of self control and wait until tomorrow to watch those eps and get some sleep now.

And I love how the conversation starts with THAT Song Jae Rim. Like we beanies would be able to associate any other SJR. :D

Are we all still waiting for Mary?? :3
She's why I started watching him in the first place... His facial features change so drastically with his hair like some kind of chameleon! And the CHEMISTRY! I can't wait for this one, because he needs to stop assassinating my OTPs and get himself into a canon one.

I LOVE YOU GUYS
Not enough to give you Oppar-wishing talismans, but maybe enough to wish that you all get your own Healos and Ha Woojins.
No. No Rim-sharing. Sawwry.

When I saw the first pic, I went, "why didn't you censor her boobs?!". Then I realized.
He looks way better with shorter hair.

Yes! I actually liked him better than the lead. That was the first time I liked a cold hearted killer who will never have any remorse... Oh my.. Killer Kim/Teacher Kim...

The think that if I were to watch this, the main reason is because of watching him. He became super cute in Mermaid Princess. I didn't dig the hair back then, even though a lot of people did.

I have faith in this show. BECAUSE SONG JAE RIM IS GOING TO BE THE MAIN HERO.
And the actresses for the "three unkind women" are pretty good.
Let's stay positive beanies, this is SJR we're talking about. ;-)
I couldn't get into AoF so this will be it!

Love Sng Jae Rim in We Got Married as nampyon to Kim So Eun! He's been around yeah, loved him in Surplus Primness! SJR's chemistry sizzles with cheesiness---so adorably greasy and the fans just melt--I no doubt am included! SJR brings skinship to a new level that's such so welcome to my eyes!!! Thanks JB and girlfriday for highlighting our SJR! Let's give this a chance, SJR may turn this drama around!

You forget about the hair and the abs when you stare into his smile. I hope this is good, cause I want to look at him, but not so enough for IG.

Er sorry. Reading through all the comments.
I only remember his wooden self in METS.
Can he act?
I am NOT being sarcastic. Just asking because I wanted to see if I want to watch the drama.

Omg I think I already went into shock reading the comments. This is the skinship guy in WGM?
I was wondering why SJR was everywhere on viki. I finally found you active. On his post no less.
Lol. Er where did I miss the original reason why you like him? Although the whole DB-verse seems to know.

O_______O I have a viki account???
It must be another mary... There is another Mary I know (of randomsoju) who loves Rim a lot too.
>> Er where did I miss the original reason why you like him?
He was just cutely terrifying in Two Weeks. Then in Inspiring Generation, he kinda steals the show.
Remember how WTF the behind-the-scenes drama of that show was? Unpaid actors. Writer changes. Kim Jae-wook wanting out by ep8 (of 24!) Lots of started but quickly dropped plotlines...
Mo Il Hwa (SJR) was an intriguing character in first half.*** Around ep10, it seemed that the Show would "kthxbai" him away too. But I think there was too much viewer-love for Mo and Rim's portrayal that they put him back starting ep15. Only to have the drama's fans worrying if Mo will die between ep15-24, because it seems everyone was dying around Kim Hyunjoong's char.
Maybe that also contributed to fueling my craziness. Not knowing if your fav char will die or not. I get the draw of Princess Aurora now! Haha
Anyway, I marathoned NSP while worrying over Mo then. I was just blown away at how different Mo and Kei of NSP were and how they can be played by same guy.
*** I shit you not, if you watch that show, Mo Il Hwa is a standout. Or, breeze through the recaps. You'll notice that when Mo shows up, things get REALLY interesting. :)
As for NSP, I wanna write another essay on why Rim is so great in that. But don't wanna sound like a crazy fangirl. (Oups. Too late?) Try to read JB's yearend review for 2014. She mentions Rim and NSP there.

Sorry ma'am. I will take your word for it. I seriously do not have enough free time to watch that many dramas just for him.
:-) I can take 1 fangirl- you- for SJR.
So I'll take your word that he's cute. I just managed to watch him in WGM tonight. He's like a totally different person. Wow.
My mind is blown seeing him so animated.

Hehe thanks!
I wish you'd read the recaps, at least :') But I know you're busy because you're a subber, so I won't force.
Let's both hope Unkind Women turns out good. For Rim and for dramaland in general. We need more good dramas!
