Love Rain excitement!
Don't they look adorable?
I think I am in the minority on my flist in being absolutely rabid about this. Most people seem to go 'ugh melo' or 'eeek Yoona' but I cannot wait!
In part because I do adore Jang Geun Seok (he made me a rabid convert with Marry Me Mary) but mainly because this is a romantic melodrama from the Four Seasons and Snow Queen PD. I would be excited no matter who he cast.
I am very fond of well-done romantic melodrama and kdramas rarely do these any more (Padam Padam can qualify as one and guess who adored it?). A well-done melodrama is not screaming and lunacy - what it is, to me, is a mood piece, everything evoking a feeling - acting, story, cinematography, almost like poetry. Spring Waltz, Snow Queen, A Love to Kill, Goodbye My Love, Beautiful Days, Winter Sonata, etc. are all my favorites.
And nobody makes poetry-as-melodrama as well as the man who brought to us the Four Seasons dramas and the sublime Snow Queen.
I cannot wait for this. I just know it will be amazing.
