Guest Smelly Tofu Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I've actually watched the jdrama version with matsumoto...all I can say is that its truly meant to be a drama as in series not a movie. It wouldn't have the same effect - Idea of a growing relationship - nonetheless i would hope for its success, it has a fun storyline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest miniejungle Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 ^^zahieyjunki, HYS was born on 1982-Sept-18, and JKS was borned on August 4th, 1987. So they're 5 yrears apart. It's actually going well with the original manga - Sumire is older than Momo. HYS has not confirmed taking the offer but I really hope she would. HYS is classy, elegant, speaks English fluently, tall... all the prerequisites of Sumire (Havard graduate) just that in the manga Sumire was taller than Momo.. but Sukkie is 182cm tall and HYS is 168cm... i don't think there is any Korean actress who is as tall as him..

Guest fivemagic Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Thanks for starting this thread! I hope my princess Ye Seul accepts the offer and so we can see her on tv once again. Yep, I second your motion above with saying "HYS is classy, elegant, speaks English fluently, tall". If she accepts the offer for the Sumire role/character, I am sure she will top the movie. She's great at portraying funny and hilarious characters. She was great in Miss Golddigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nana544 Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I hope Ye Suel confirm and start in this movie with Jang Keun Suk because they both look compatible together.

Guest miniejungle Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 latest news from the street: (no actual confirmation seen but since the walls have ears... ) 1. Han Ye Seul has confirmed taking up the offer. 2. Filming will start from June 10th. Sukkie's fans have started a project of supporting him in this movie by doing a lunch bus. You can find details at keunsukholic.com, under You're my Pet Project. We're doing this side by side Korean eels. Sorry to say that it's closed by now, but the contributions from eels have been generous and response was fantastic! I'm so looking forward to this movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest miniejungle Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 updates on You're my Pet movie: this is not official and we have yet heard any confirmation, but it looks like the movie has been pushed back to September (filming) and will release in December. As for the female lead, Han Ye Seul still hasn't given the nod so she might not be taking up this project afterall... i'm not happy with this development. I thought I would be able to see Sukkie in action soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest xsilentangel Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Oh my god! I loved Kimi Wa Petto.. It was short and cute. I think it can be a movie, without a doubt. Ahhhh I love Jang Geun Suk! Hope he is as cute as Matsumoto Jun in this (I'm sure he will be ).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest miniejungle Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Reposting from JKS's thread, credit: daily_tofu: "I got some surprising news today from the Korean eels. Great news!! One of the eels went to the Han river last night. A movie shooting was going on at that time and she asked someone which movie they are shooting. Guess what~~ It's <You're My Pet> shooting!!!!!!!! Unfortunately the eels couldn't see Keunsuk or the costar >.< Maybe they were just taking some stock shot. Hopefully Han Ye Seul is the co star. The more I think about it, the more I feel that she is the right person to be Sumire but that's just me of course. I hope her info is true... gosh I really look forward to this movie! You know I think this time it will be Han Ye Seul for sure. During the KBS interview, the host asked about his ideal girl Soo-Ae, that Soo Ae likes Kim Tae Hwan better than him and how does Sukkie feel about this. Sukkie answered,Soo Ae ssi has a very uniqute taste, but in fact he likes Han Ye Seul now. " I really hope this news is true!!! looking forward to see you as Momo, my baby!
