Heartstrings, first episode.

[calixa]

"So, how about dating me?”
“I don’t want to."
"Why, are you dating someone? But I heard you're single!"
"...I really hate people who are ugly."

My god... this is lifted straight out of practically every other shoujo manga in existence.

I am distracted by his vague resemblance to Oguri Shun. Just...less manly.

[dangermousie]

Also shorter :P

[calixa]

All that matters is he's taller than Park Shin Hye. Even if it is not the epic height difference of City Hunter.

[dangermousie]

According to dramawiki (though who knows how accurate it is).

LMH: 185 PMY: 164

JYH: 180 PSH: 163

I call shenanigans because the height difference btw LMH/PMY is waaaay more than between JYH/PSH. ETA: he's kinda tall next to PSH, I take this back. Maybe it looks less because he's not as broad in the shoulders as LMH? Perhaps I need to study it more by rewatch of shippy scenes?

In Material Queen, the leading girl is taller than Vanness and it is kinda freaking me out.

[calixa]

Yeah, seriously. That can't be right...

[calixa]

I think you're right, he's much leaner than Lee Min Ho is all around. Rewatch of shippy scenes sounds good to me :)

[sisterjune]

Ahhaha at material queen, i noticed that too, at first i thought it was just the crazy heels they keep putting her in but she is actually taller than him! what is even more hilarious is they keep putting her in heels anyway! I personally am not bothered but growing up in america where a girl being taller than a guy in the media is unacceptable, its cool to see dramas be less worried about it. wasnt the lady in majo no jouken taller than takki as well?

[dangermousie]

Well, Takki is very short (a lot of jdrama actors really are). I really don't like it when the gal is taller, actually.

[calixa]

I don't mind if they are roughly the same height, even if the guy is maybe an inch shorter; but much prefer it when he is taller :)
