1. Joo Won is rumored to be considering the lead role in the drama version of the hit movie about a man who finds out his girlfriend was a secret agent (after they break up and he becomes one himself). I am...torn. On one hand, more Joo Won in a drama is always a good thing. On the other, this would air barely a month after Bridal Mask ends, and since they will start filming before airing, this means no rest for him. Plus, Kim Nam Gil and Lee Dong Gun turned down the lead role, so I am wondering if there are problems - the makers are people behind Chuno, one of my all-time favorite dramas, but also behind Runaway - Plan B, one of the most useless monstrocities to ever grace dramaland. People's suggestions for female leads drive me insane as well - Son Ye Jin? Kim Tae Hee? I am not a big fan of the former, but more to the point, she looks almost old enough to be his mom and it's not that sort of a story. I love Kim Tae Hee, who has great chemistry with her co-stars despite her limited acting prowess, but once again, she's rather too old. I want an age-appropriate pairing, please.
2. Posters for May Queen are out and I want!!!
It's like my dream cast, pretty much. Though how they expect to resolve the romantic rivalry between Jae Hee and Kim Jae Won, whom I adore equally and who have equal leading man status, I have no idea. Never has the word 'threesome' been more appropriate.
3. Posters are out for Five Fingers as well. My favorite is this, because it looks like Joo Ji Hoon and Eunjung are about to do something X-rated on the piano as soon as the photoshoot is over...
The women look amazing but the men are saddled with odd clothes and hairstyles. Still, I don't care. Because Joo Ji Hoon!!!
Our hero, who is trapped in 1999, it seems like.
Ji Chang Wook, who only probably went evil as a protest against his hideous wardrobe...
Their mother, who I think is supposed to be not in the running for the nicest Mom in the world.
Eunjung, looking like a million bucks. Preshipping her and JJH's character already.
General poster:
And to think, if it wasn't for the Olympics, this marvelousness would be starting next week! *shakes fist*
4. This amazing general Bridal Mask MV is probably my favorite yet. Spoilers for all the eps.
