Bickering besties Park Seo-joon and Kim Ji-won for Fight My Way
by girlfriday
With these two leads, I’m not surprised that we’re in for something cute. The first teaser is out for KBS’s upcoming rom-com Fight My Way (we were calling it Third-Rate My Way, but KBS is going with a fight metaphor and pun in the title, so Fight My Way it is). Park Seo-joon (Hwarang) and Kim Ji-won (Descended From the Sun) star as lifelong friends who specialize in tormenting each other, a dynamic that’s bound to bring on the laughs. And if we’re lucky, it’ll also bring crackling chemistry in a heartwarming friends-to-lovers romance.
The coming-of-age drama is about young adults with third-rate specs just struggling to survive, and the blossoming romance between two immature friends whose childish dynamic hasn’t changed despite reaching adulthood. They tease each other relentlessly, but are also the first to defend their best friend against anyone else.
Park Seo-joon’s character is an aspiring Taekwondo athlete described as a teenager in the body of a man, and Kim Ji-won plays an aspiring news announcer with no filter and a sassy attitude. Ahn Jae-hong (Answer Me 1988) and Song Ha-yoon (My Daughter Geum Sa-wol) co-star as a couple of six years who’re friends with the leads.
In the show’s first teaser, our two main characters smile for the camera happily, but it hardly takes a few seconds before they start a fight. Kim Ji-won shoves her microphone and script at Park Seo-joon, while he starts tossing parts of his Taekwondo uniform at her. Well if your idea of fighting is undressing, by all means, carry on.
She quickly gains the upper hand with a chokehold, and the whole thing devolves into an embarrassing hair-pulling match. The best part: Once they’ve got their jackets off, we discover that they’re wearing matching couple tees. HEE. I think I’m going to like this one.
The fight begins in May following Perfect Wife on Mondays and Tuesdays.

same. i considered watching Hwarang for certain people, but ultimately skipped out on it because i just didn't feel like it'd be worth all the hours spent watching for me. glad i didn't bother, but i need my fix of some of those actors elsewhere and PSJ is dreamy in rom-coms.

Hehehe. They are both so adorable fuming at each other that I'm sure they can't stay angry at one another for long! I am already so sold on them and their romance. I also love Ahn Jae-hong and Song Ha-yoon as the supporting pair :) No second leads in sight! This is shaping up very nicely. Can't wait!

My favorite is the expression of PSJ and KJW after took of their sunglasses. Probably, point out how their characters in the drama. I hope it will be (consistently) likable.
I didn't expect they wear the same t-shirt from the first teaser. Obviously, they are soulmate. How sweet it is!
This teaser reminds me of OMV teaser, but it's not surprising because these two dramas have the same PD.
And pleaseee be a fun one! Like the bright color on the background! It's been a long time, I was in a drought of romance drama. T.T

Both looking so gorgeous! This is my most awaited drama at the moment (because of the leads) and followed by Ji Chang Wook - Nam Ji Hyun's one (also because of the OTP).
I do hope Kim Tan's fuschia lip-do will not make a comeback though!

This teaser is already making me so giddy to ask for more teasers. From the teaser, I guess I'm not only gonna look out for their romantic moments, but also for their bickering friendship. I'm glad that this is gonna be a mix of romcom and somehow a bit of slice of life. I long for a good romance drama, so hopefully this will be great. May is so near~

I always love friends-to-lovers dramas. They're of course hilarious in the beginning and the super cute romance coming behind make me totally swoon.
It's even better if in the (real) end they can become (real) lovers.
I really jumping around when I read the news about Nam Joo Hyuk and Lee Sung Kyung. My swag couple!

i think from all of May dramas this is the most fun and interesting it has friends to lovers-Bickering besties plot but i love even more the fact that they have third-rate lives, but still want to live life their way regardless of what others say.plus both of their acting is top! can't wait to see kim ji won!

I've loved Kim Ji-won since watching her in the little webseries One Sunny Day. And I do like Park Seo-joon from Hwarang, although since I've only seen him in a mostly stoic and serious role, idk how he'll do in comedy. Hopefully well, since I'm all in for Ji-won. I'm excited.

I think they look like siblings in this styling all the way down to the lip color.
Which reminds me, I know some people in a fashion-related business who are visiting Seoul for the first time. Their first big takeaway was utter amazement at the beauty and style of the young people and that the guys were wearing full makeup, which they'd never seen anywhere else in the world.

Friends to lovers? Can't help but think of the real-life counterpart of these two and let's hide them under the names LEE SUNGKYUNG and NAM JOO HYUK! Point taken they never fight like SeoJoon and Jiwon in this drama, but c'mon guys! Sungkyung and Joohyuk are the real-life example of "friends to lovers". (Sorry, can't help but comment since I'm still in cloud 9 after YG confirmed they're dating! #SwagCoupleisReal)
