[firstaid]

@willenette and @wintertimes So glad that there are positive reactions w/ the confirmation. Judging from the IG & twitter posts so far, many are excited. Though the confirmation took a long time, the wait was worth it... My admiration and respect for HB grew leaps. He's really a man of his word. When he said in the Negotiation promos that he wanted to work w/ Son Yejin in a melo or romcom genre in his next project, he really followed this through.

Hi firstaid,  It is a rom-com so expect the CUTE scenes here. This isn’t the first time Hyun Bin is playing a North Korean – he did so in the movie, “Cooperation.” (Confidential Assignment).

Hi there too. Yup, I've watched Confidential Assignment 2x to be exact) and I super love HB there. I just hope it wouldn't be too cutesy though. Just enough to not make the drama too serious, but not too much that makes it silly already.

The 14 Best K-Drama Rom-Coms Of All Time

 

With the scent of summer in the air and the anticipation of a fun-filled summer up ahead, it’s the perfect time to binge watch some classic K-drama rom-coms to get you into that summer romance feel. Rom-com dramas, when done right, are the best kind of genre to watch.

 

They make you feel good, tug at your heartstrings, and totally have you a believer in love. All aspects that we can dig, right? There’s obviously been a lot of rom-coms out there in the K-drama world, but very few earn the title of being the best of all time. Here’s a look at 14 of those titles (in no particular order).

 

Warning: Minor spoilers ahead.

 

 

6. My Lovely Sam Soon

This one is another Hyun Bin drama, but it’s also one that can’t be missed! “My Lovely Sam Soon” stars Kim Sun Ah as Sam Soon, a pastry chef who gets a job at a gourmet restaurant that Hyun Jin Hoon (Hyun Bin) owns. After a series of unfortunate events, Sam Soon and Jin Hoon make a contract to be in a fake relationship.

 

 

It’s a classic love story with a trope that we’re all familiar with. It has the same kind of vibe as the Hollywood movie, “Bridget Jones’s Diary” as it deals with a female protagonist who is self-conscious about her appearance and has had terrible luck when it comes to men. It’s witty, humorous, and the character, Sam Soon is so relatable! The two main leads start off despising each other, but then they start to fall in love. It’s a heart-warming love story and it will make you a believer in true love!

 

 

Start watching “My Name Is Kim Sam Soon”:

2. Secret Garden

Ah, the popular body swapping K-drama trope. Like “Full House,” the idea of the main leads swapping bodies in a series was not really that popular nor used that often at the time. So when Kim Joo Won (Hyun Bin) and Gil Ra Im (Ha Ji Won) swap bodies halfway throughout the series, people were surprised but found it pleasantly charming.

 

 

This series is one of the best rom-coms of all time because of the ever so talented Hyun Bin and his arrogant but oh so romantic character. He was able to portray Joo Won in a way that made him so lovable despite his love for money and designer tracksuits.

 

 

We also can’t forget Ha Ji Won and her fangirling character, Gil Ra Im. It was hilarious to see her obsess over her idol, Oska (Yoon Sang Hyun). It made the relating to the female lead part pretty easy to do!

 

Start watching “Secret Garden”:

I hope Hyun Bin will cut his hair very short for this drama like he did on the movie confidential assignment, it was his best look in my opinion. 

[willenette]

*** I was able to watch his latest movie, "Rampant" - Although, the movie is polished, but I feel that “Rampant” is reluctant to commit fully to the intriguing originality of its premise. What I like about the movie is that the film tells its story at a faster pace. There was quite a lot to like with ‘Rampant.’ This was the first time that I saw Jang Dong Gun portray a villain but I really was not surprised that he was given a major chunk of the story. Prince Ganglim (Hyun Bin) gets the only resemblance of a character arc, as he must learn to grow out of his immature ways and accept his responsibilities towards his people. The film managed to incorporate some dramatic elements to “Rampant” as the prince came to terms with his destiny to take the throne. All in all, the movie had great production value and practical effects that worked. You’re here to see people slash and dash their way through waves of zombies – and that’s exactly where “Rampant” excels at. They are still as terrifying as you’d expect, and the film doesn’t shy away from gore. What sets the movie apart is its use of the time period. The production designs are exquisite, with grand sets for the towns and the palace, and elaborate traditional costumes that transport you back in time. You still get badass sword-wielding warriors taking down a swarm of zombies wearing “hanbok” clothes, and blockbuster-style battle scenes in grand set pieces. ‘Rampant’ still emerges as a rather fun and highly enjoyable variation on the Asian zombie genre that has plenty to like about it.

***I've watched this drama & I didn't remember he was in it.

Hi firstaid, thanks for sharing the link. Seo Ji Hye is the 2nd female lead in this upcoming drama. I find her gorgeously beautiful! I watched her in "Black Knight" with Kim Rae Won. I enjoyed her performance. She was also in Heart Surgeons..... & acted as the female lead there.

Seo Ji Hye Joins Hyun Bin And Son Ye Jin In New Drama From Writer Of “The Legend Of The Blue Sea”

 

 

Actress Seo Ji Hye is the next to confirm for the upcoming drama “Crash Landing of Love” (tentative title), joining Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin, who signed on as the drama leads this past May.

 

The drama is a highly-anticipated one, being the next work of writer Park Ji Eun, who previously penned “The Legend of the Blue Sea” and “My Love From the Star.” Joining the drama in the director’s seat is Lee Jung Hyo, whose previous works include “Good Wife,”

“Life on Mars,” and “Romance Is a Bonus Book.”

 

“Crash Landing of Love” is about a wealthy South Korean heiress named Yoon Se Ri (played by Son Ye Jin) who, while paragliding, is forced to make a crash landing in North Korea due to high winds. North Korean officer Ri Jung Hyuk (Hyun Bin) hides and protects her, and in doing so, starts to fall in love.

 

Seo Ji Hye will be playing the role of Seo Dan, an aspiring musician who grew up in North Korea in opulence. Her mother is the owner of a high-end department store in Pyongyang, and her father is a high-ranking government official. Though she boasts both wealth and beauty, she is an intelligent woman who relies more on her own skill and ability to advance in life.

 

Seo Ji Hye has previously appeared in dramas such as “Black Knight,” “Don’t Dare to Dream (Jealousy Incarnate),” and “Heart Surgeons.”

 

Though the timing of the premiere is still under discussion, previous reports have tentatively stated that the drama will be airing in November.
