Oh Snap! The K2 stars get cozy
by HeadsNo2
I’m really digging the emotion in this shoot, because it tells a story—a story with cuddling and Victorian dresses and random prisms, but a story nonetheless. Hey, when you’ve got professionally pretty people like Ji Chang-wook and Yoon-ah in front of your lens, who’s to complain?
The actors are gearing up for the premiere of their much-anticipated action drama The K2 this weekend, and can be seen here in their October spread for Vogue magazine. I feel like we’ve been waiting for this drama for ages (thanks to the media blitz), so let’s get on with the show! Who’s counting down?

I usually don't mind yoona's acting, but I always get bummed by her lack of chemistry with the actors she works with. She says she wants to take acting seriously, it would help if she shedded her idol image and immersed herself on her roles more.
I like the dramatic photoshoot and I really really hope they got good chemistry together on the small screen. After that sweet romance in Healer, comparisons are inevitable.

? All of Yoona's previous co-stars were a decade or two decades older than her, with exception of JGS who she had cute chemistry with (shame about the whole mess that LR was though).
YAMD: YA (18) - PJJ (28)
CM: YA (19) - KSW (33)
LR: YA (22) - JGS (25)
PMAI: YA (23) - LBS (43)
She even pulled off a nice chemistry with Lee Bumsoo in Prime Minister and I (noted, he did have a lot to do with it, but still she pulled her own weight there because with chemistry, it takes two to tango not one).

To be fair, most actresses are paired with older and sometimes much older guys and it has no barring on which ones they have chemistry with.
I.e marriage contract anyone?
We'll see. I hope these two have chemistry.

Hmmm. I think his nose looks the same here as in Healer. But I do think he had a little work done sometime before Healer. His nose was less high and sharp in his early works.

JCW was plenty pretty (perfectly pretty) in Healer. But sometimes some stars get carried away and can't stop when good is really good enough. Now, his nose looks very unnatural. It could be the angle or that his plastic surgeon has gone overboard.

September 22, 2016 at 7:25 AM
I think it's just the angle on this one.. If you see his pictures now I like how his nose looks more natural now than his healer days, although you wont really notice it that much, nonetheless I can care less if he has anything done, he is still pretty for me inside and out. And Someone said about the lips, I think his lips have been like that eversince..

Yoona perhaps did nose job too. Not sure.
They shouldn't do anything to their face that already perfect. Sigh.

I think it's his lipstick, the color was too pale.
His nose does look different in the first picture, I don't remember him having such a high and fine tip. Although his individual features may not be perfect, he's already good looking. I guess there's always the pressure of wanting to look better or more perfect in the Korean society.
I take my hat off to Lee Seung Gi, I don't think he has done any PS. I've noticed long time ago that he does not have that 'perfect' nose but in a way, that is what makes him unique among all the male celebs with beautiful noses.

September 22, 2016 at 7:32 AM
it's just the angle and makeup, he doesn't look any different from his healer days looking at the press conference pics or other events he attended recently.
his nose is a curious case actually though, even before empress ki from some angles it's tip looked much sharper compared to it's overall shape, in his many photoshoots it's used to the pictorial's advantage.. I've observed it with my medical student perspective!

I follow him on instagram and to me, his lips look perpetually chapped. Like, I think he doesn't get enough hydration (it shows in your lips first; sun damage is 2nd cause and chapstick with sunblock can counter that) and he ends up using lipstick and it just ends up giving his lips an odd texture.

I never find his lips Dry tbh, if not they always look luscious to me.. I know he is a smoker, but thank to cosmetics he does not appear to have darkened lips and gums.. His teeth always look good and always poses the best smile.. Fans would know this he actually is a model for EOS china, that means he's got perfect healthy lips ! That's just the fan girl in me.. :) ha!

September 22, 2016 at 9:28 AM
I've seen a number of Koreans who naturally have an upper lip that's somewhat thin throughout and draws down to a point at the center. If that's his natural shape then they put filler on either side of the center point. But I'm thinking: maybe there's a natural lip shape that has that plumpness on the sides of the center point.
Regardless of whether he put filler there or not, it looks good that way.

I can't speak to if he had something done in the past but this recent change is probably due to the power of makeup and photoshop.
Contouring can totally make your nose appear different.
Check out recent pictures on Instagram.
People say the same think about Lee Jong Suk....but it's contouring peeps.

I'm really looking forward to the drama but that said I feel as if they both have done a separate photoshoot and the pictures have been combined through Photoshop later. They are both so beautiful no doubt but it would have looked nice had they stared at each other in the first picture. Also what's up with Yoona's body proportion in the red dress or is it the dress shape that's making it look so weird?

Where was there any bodyshaming? The only thing I see is people talking about chemistry, poses, how beautiful they look, a few people calling the second dress unflattering (so about the clothes, not the person) and some people sad that celebrities feel they have to look so perfect that they get nosejobs etc which to me is the opposite of bodyshaming - that's wishing for people to love themselves no matter outer appearances and wishing that they wouldn't feel like they had to live up to a certain beauty standard.

September 22, 2016 at 8:13 AM
Lol don't think they're trying to convince us of that, that we be pretty insane :P The designer was probably inspired by the 18th/19th centuries and tried to make sort of a neo/fushion style dress, bu the fit of the dress just seems all wrong, at least for her body type, and it does make her proportions look really unnatural. It's a poorly chosen dress and not a very flattering angle of it.

Lol at that third pic. Only her hands are keeping her from looking like a corpse. Her facial expression is just completely blank in all of the photos, so who on earth thought it a good idea to tell her to pose with such a limp body expression?
The clothes are kind of expected to me, it's Vogue after all, at least half is bound to be clothes 98% of people wouldn't wear.

well yoona is sooo pretty because it's a pictorial magazine the light, the wardrobe, the make up makes her sooo pretty, but its not goes to drama when every actor/actress in korea wear natural make up.
I see no chemistry holly crap it's just a pictorial magazine after all,not yet.

Dramabeans has long been a place where people of diverse opinions could discuss them amicably. With only rare exceptions, cliquishness and it's evil twin "group-think" generally aren't allowed to censor open discourse or name-call people trolls or hateful. Because having differing opinions isn't trollish or hateful. It's a healthy and beautiful part of life.
The main group that seems to struggle with how openly things are discussed here are uber-fans that view their bias as an idol. It seems that they find it worrisome that oppa or unni are only human and may have a flaw or two. Which is unfortunate. They don't yet realize that it's possible for people to both, see oppa and unni's flaws, and still love them dearly for the enjoyment and entertainment they bring into our lives.

ji chang wook nose and lips havent changed. its just the anglee. there is no difference between healer days in new promos and also the pics from press conference. I remember once he said in his early days he went to a doctor and asked for a nose job but he told him he is perfectly fine so he didnt do that. Actually he is one of the very few who hasnt done any surgery.

I think his nostrils look smaller than before. His nose looks sharper than the time he acted in "Five Fingers". It must be too dangerous for an action star to have a nose job , right? I think JCW might have had some noninvasive procedure to help his face look sharper. He is already handsome and cute since his debut, but he just gets more attractive overtime. It's ok. I still love him anyway.
