Watch: Jung Hae In, Chae Soo Bin, And Lee Ha Na Share Excitement For Drama “A Piece Of Your Mind”

TV/FILM

by J. Lim

 

Upcoming tvN drama “A Piece of Your Mind” has released a behind-the-scenes look at the actors filming their first scenes!

 

“A Piece of Your Mind” will tell the story of Ha Won (Jung Hae In), a kind-hearted artificial intelligence (AI) programmer, and Han Seo Woo (Chae Soo Bin), an optimistic classical recording engineer. Along with them is Lee Ha Na playing Moon Soon Ho, a gardener who is like family to Ha Won.

The video gives viewers a sneak peek of what they can expect from the drama, as well as how Jung Hae In, Chae Soo Bin, and Lee Ha Na felt after filming for the drama for the first time. Jung Hae In smiled and said, “This is the start,” and “I talk a lot with the director and staff, and we’re calmly making this drama together. I’m working well with the other actors and they’re all so nice. We’re having fun as we film.” He also added, “It hasn’t been that long since I started filming with Soo Bin, so we haven’t filmed a lot together, but we’re doing well.”

Chae Soo Bin said, “I got to film in such a pretty place, and I think I’ll have a warm winter this year thanks to Seo Woo and ‘A Piece of Your Mind.'” As she plays a recording engineer, the actress has to carry a lot of heavy equipment for her character and though she struggles, she toughs it out till the end to create the perfect scene.

 

Finally, Lee Ha Na stated, “We wrapped up our first filming well. It was very energetic and I had fun filming.” She is seen exchanging suggestions with the staff on the appearance of her character, and she said, “I think people will find a lot of joy watching Soon Ho, so I’m anticipating it.”

“A Piece of Your Mind” is set to premiere at 9 p.m. KST on March 23 and will be available on Viki.

Watch: Jung Hae In And Chae Soo Bin Make Hearts Flutter Behind The Scenes Of “A Piece Of Your Mind” Poster Shoot

TV/FILM

Mar 7, 2020

by S. Park

 

Jung Hae In and Chae Soo Bin created a spring atmosphere on set as they filled the set with smiles and bright energy for “A Piece of Your Mind”!

On March 6, tvN released a behind-the-scenes video of the actors on set for the poster shoot.

This romance drama is about kind-hearted artificial intelligence (AI) programmer Ha Won (played by Jung Hae In) who has had a crush on someone for years and optimistic classical recording engineer Han Seo Woo (played by Chae Soo Bin) who finds herself drawn to Ha Won and his one-sided love from afar.

In the video, Chae Soo Bin waves to the camera and Jung Hae In poses for photos. A staff member tells Chae Soo Bin, “You look so pretty,” and she replies with a shy laugh as she monitors the photos.

The leads are asked to pose together, and Chae Soo Bin is instructed to look at Jung Hae In with loving eyes. She asks him, “Doesn’t this feel burdensome?” and he jokes that it hurts on the part of his face she is staring intently at. The photographer then requests them to smile while looking at each other, and they burst into shy giggles once their eyes meet. Standing closely in front of the monitor, they react to the photos that perfectly capture the shyness between them.

Lee Ha Na and Kim Sung Kyu then join them on set. Jung Hae In jokes about Kim Sung Kyu’s all-black outfit which was a stark contrast to everyone else’s spring looks. Kim Sung Kyu jokes, “Are they not going to use [the photo]?” and made everyone burst into laughter.

The final shoot takes place outside in the middle of a forest and in the snow where Jung Hae In is photographed for two special posters.

“A Piece of Your Mind” premieres on March 23 at 9 p.m. KST, and will be available with English subtitles on Viki! Check out the behind-the-scenes clip below:

DRAMA PREVIEW

Mar 3, 2020

by L. Kim

 

tvN’s upcoming drama “A Piece of Your Mind” has released a new teaser with Chae Soo Bin and Jung Hae In!

“A Piece of Your Mind” stars Jung Hae In as Moon Ha Won, a kind-hearted artificial intelligence (AI) programmer who has spent years in one-sided love and has resigned himself to his lonely fate. Chae Soo Bin stars as Han Seo Woo, an optimistic classical recording engineer who finds herself drawn to watching Ha Won and his one-sided love from afar.

The teaser begins with Moon Ha Won and Han Seo Woo walking together. Although they are going in the same direction, she always remains a step behind him. She gazes at him with eyes full of admiration, and her lips are curled upwards into a soft smile.

In a voiceover, Han Seo Woo talks about her hidden feelings for Moon Ha Won, saying, “I really like seeing him. It’s nice to see someone being so devoted to someone else. I hope he won’t know how I feel.”

Moon Ha Won looks back at her, and Han Seo Woo responds with a warm smile. He smiles back at her, and the clip ends in a pensive way.

“A Piece of Your Mind” premieres on March 23 at 9 p.m. KST and will be available on Viki.

Watch the teaser below:

 

 

ETA: Soobin usually has really good chemistry with her co-stars and both her and Jung Hae In seem to have this boy/girl next door personality/image, so I think they'll have great chemistry. You can already see it in the poster making behind the scene video.

[tenten0227]

New teaser with Jung Hae In. He seems to be reminiscing about the girl he loves, from the name he said, she is probably called Ji-soo.

I have to say, everything from the music to the scenery is just so beautiful~ March 23rd can't come any faster!

 

 

[_heywatch]

Chae Soobin is the cutest thing ever. Jung Hae In is so boyishly handsome lol. They look good together. Hopefully the story delivers. I'm excited for this one. It gives off a melancholy feel although I havent quite figure the scope or tone of the drama as of yet since the teasers has been character focus only.  From the sypnosis, I like it so far? Doesnt seem unique but I like the characters occupation. Seems much different from the doctor, teachers, lawyers, etc angle. So it's one sided love? I dig it lol. Some may think JHI 's role might be the same because hes always playing the nice guy but I've only watched him in Prison Playbook which he neccesarily didnt play a goodie two shoes so I'm excited for him in this one. Probably will be the first drama I'll watch him as the M/L. I'm suprise hes costarring with an younger actress for a drama lol although it's quite nice/change for once. Plus,

JHI looks young. Both JHI & CSB gives off a youthful/career driven characters. I'm rooting for these two.

The highlight teaser is out! 

 

They held the press conference yesterday online (due to the coronavirus).

 

Jung Hae In, Chae Soo Bin, And More Talk About Why They Chose Their New Drama “A Piece Of Your Mind”

TV/FILM

Mar 16, 2020

by C. Hong

 

On March 16, tvN’s new Monday-Tuesday drama “A Piece of Your Mind” held an online press conference with director Lee Sang Yeob and actors Jung Hae In, Chae Soo Bin, Lee Ha Na, and Kim Sung Kyu.

“A Piece of Your Mind” tells the love story of Ha Won (Jung Hae In), an artificial intelligence programmer, and Seo Woo (Chae Soo Bin), a classical music recording engineer.

Spoiler

Jung Hae In said, “I had already decided on ‘A Piece of Your Mind’ as my next project while working on the film ‘Tune In for Love.’ I met with the director and confirmed that the atmosphere on set would be good. The most important thing is the script, which intrigued me. I wanted to take on the challenge of a new theme like ‘artificial intelligence.'”

He added that he had no experience in unrequited love, unlike his character Ha Won. “I’ve played characters wth unrequited love before,” he said. “Based on that, I am putting a lot of thought into it.”

Spoiler

Chae Soo Bin said, “I chose to star in this drama because of the script, which became more interesting the more I read it. Seo Woo’s sincerity is a key point in the drama. Even when she was feeling pain, I tried to make her relatable so that viewers could feel a sense of warmth.”

She added, “What I learned from filming is that usually unrequited love makes you selfish, but Seo Woo has no such greed and only wants the other person’s happiness. I liked that kind of innocence. I’m learning a lot.”

About her co-star, she said, “He’s a very warm and respectful person. I am having a lot of fun filming and he takes good care of me. I would give our chemistry about 80 points.”

Spoiler

Lee Ha Na, who plays gardener Moon Soon Ho, said, “I read the script and decided on the role in about two hours. There was no reason for me not to take the role. It felt like the script had brought to life the thoughts inside my head. I had worked hard on the ‘Voice‘ series for so long that when I got the offer from ‘A Piece of Your Mind,’ I really wanted to do it. It felt like the romance dramas I used to do, like I’d come back home for the first time in a long time.”

Spoiler

Kim Sung Kyu, who plays classical pianist Kang In Wook, is appearing in a broadcast drama for the first time in “A Piece of Your Mind,” though he has made a name for himself in films like “The Outlaws” and Netflix series “Kingdom.” He said, “I was a little worried, but when I read the script, I was attracted by the beautiful story and the unique character. When I met the director and writer, they seemed like good people, so how could I not do it?”

He continued, “The characters are all longing for someone, and that’s how romance begins to blossom. Now that I’ve tried romance acting, I am looking forward to the future. I am curious as to how I will overcome this slump. It’s so different from before that it will inevitably show a new side of me. I want to discover the detailed side of myself and express it. Compared to before, my life is changing a lot. Not because of external things, but because the character is so different.”

Spoiler

 

 

 

 

 

 

They also released the character descriptions as well as the relationship chart. 

 

 

I cant really understanding everything, but I'll try and sub some of the basic points I got. 

 

Ha Won (Jung Hae In) and his coworkers/friends:

Spoiler

Moon Hawon (33) - AI programmer 

"You get married. I'll keep doing the love I was doing before. Only, if you get lonely, definitely contact me."

 

He's unrivaled in the AI field and the president of a portal business called AH. He is only interested in research and doesn't participate in foreign business; he is only affiliated with the secret research team. He is not concerned with titles and works with a small team to research things that will change the domain of the world. He had a skin disease, so when he was 10 his mom (who was a piano teacher) moved with him to Norway. His only friend there was Jisoo. They were lonely, but they made their own world with their own music, imagination, and forest.  In their second year of high school, Hawon's mom died from an avalanche which broke their island like world. They part when he moves to America with some diplomat his mom knew, but they still keep in touch. When they meet up 7 years later in Seoul, Jisoo tells him she is getting married (or is married), so he continues to stay in Seoul. Even after breaking up with her, Jisoo is still the center of his life. He doesn't have an area of interest so, because he is inexperienced and lacks common sense he often hears that he is innocent or unexpected. When conversing he looks at the other person with childlike curiosity; he has a habit of staring with an affectionate gaze. Because of this he sometimes gets misunderstood, but he just is highly focused. When hes focused he sweeps his hand over his hair(?) and makes his surroundings a trash dump. Everything is firm but nice. He's rational and ideal.

 

Spoiler

Kimhoon (mid 30s)- AI programmer and AH's director and researcher. Hawon's MIT classmate

 

Met Hawon while studying abroad in the US. Hawon contacted him from Seoul [I'm not sure if he dropped out or was temporarily in Seoul] and as soon as he graduated Kimhoon came back to Seoul. In Seoul they invented their own program. He's still with Hawon; in one word he is Hawon's soulmate. To others it may seem as if he is foolishly uninterested in money, but like Hawon he is interested in research. He is a genius. He respects the cold noodle restaurant that he is a regular at with the logically unexplainable flavored soup owner the most in the world.

 

Spoiler

Min Jinhwan (early 30s) - AH researcher

 

He is smart but ambitious. He causes divisions in the research team, as he knows of the D program that only Kimhoon and Hawon made.

 

Song Jinseon (mid 40s) - Psychiatrist 

 

A psychiatry professor in Shin-a university hospital. A colleague and nuna that Hawon can have deep conversations with. She is Minjeong's doctor.

Seowoo's farmer parents believe that good sound is just as beneficial to plants as sun and rain, and played classical music alot, and Seowoo was drawn to this music. Therefore, although she was admitted into computing, she separately studied music. After graduating, she worked as an assistant to a specialist engineer, but the recording studio she was working at suddenly had to close. When she was about to be unemployed, a new recording studio manager arrived called Mun Sunho, and she requested "bowl purchase(?)." It was a bowl that a lady called Kim Jisoo had released. Through that incident, Seowoo fatefully burrows into Jisoo and Hawon's relationship. Her heart keeps going to Hawon, the man who is okay with half of half of half of Jisoo.

Spoiler

Eun Soojeong (mid 60s)- piano tuner

 

The tuning halmoni. On Seowoo's first day at her job as an intern, she told her that the recording studio is loud, so it is the best place to cry. She has affection for Seowoo and is Jisoo's piano tuner. Seowoo really likes this halmoni she sees twice a year.

 

Moon Sunho(Lee Hana) and her grandmother:

 

Spoiler

Moon Sunho (36)- Gardner

"I don't know how to help a slump. I know exactly how to save plants. Between the two one of them has to live."

 

She is the daughter of the diplomat who took Hawon to the US. In title she is Hawon's niece but they are like friends. She manages her grandmothers garden and flowers. Her grandmother who was a diplomat went around the world and helped people. Her grandmother sponsored many people, but Hawon was the only person she regarded as an uncle and got along like friends with him. In 2012, she was stabbed in the back when her best friend and her fiance dated. At that time she found Hawon looking like a beggar sitting on the road. Although he is younger than her he said "Hi niece." He had just been dumped by his first love that he had met for the first time in 7 years. She felt better thanks to the uncle that she had met for the first time. After that day she went to work in her grandmothers garden and was close with Hawon. She knows of Hawon and Jisoo's relationship and thinks of it as a "great morbid obsession." About the time when she gets tired of gardening, she becomes the manager of the recording studio at Hawon's request and hires Seowoo. She shows drive in her knew livelihood, but a new character unexpectedly comes into her life.  He's exactly the type she doesn't like to associate with, but as she says she doesn't want to she doesn't want to, she can't help but feel that she wants to help this man who fell in a slump like she saves a dying plant. 

 

Spoiler

Moon Jeongnam (mid 70s)- Diplomat

 

Sunho's paternal grandmother. She is Hawon's sponsor but she is like a mother. Sponsoring and sharing is everything in her life.  Through thank you letters she gets to know the address of Sunho and Hawon's house. I think one of the letters she gets is also from Jisoo. 

 

Kang Inwook (Kim Seongkyu) and friend:

 

Spoiler

Kang Inwook (34)- Pianist

"Why can't you take my side?! Why! Why! Why! If you had could just say one thing.. just it's ok..."

 

He is acknowledged among musicians, but is unknown by the public. He is Jisoo's husband. Because of his musician parents wishes he went to he spent his childhood in Austria at a foreign school. He then went to Norway for high school where he saw Jisoo and Hawon sticking together. Even with the other kids they spoke in Korean and seemed to live in their own world. He hated the two of them and only spoke in English, therefore they did not know that he was a Korean like them. However, one day, he heard the Korean sentences that Jisoo was saying to Hawon. Jisoo's appearance as she slowly pronounced the words was beautiful. After Hawon left to the US he got close to Jisoo. Even after marrying Jisoo he always lived doubting Hawon. Married life with Jisoo isn't easy. Jisoo gave up piano and they wanted to have a kid but they could not. He tells a secret no one knows to Jisoo hoping she will just say it is ok. However, that secret to Jisoo is also poison and even makes Jisoo miserable. What rules his other side is the worry that in one moment he could lose everything. He has the ability to inflate nothing into the worst situation and his worry is always increasing. 

 

Spoiler

Choi Jinmoo (mid 40s)- classical sound engineer

 

He is the best classical field sound engineer. He maintains a close relationship with Inwook through performances and sound engineering, and he is a hyung that Inwook can talk and empty his mind to. He is competent of course, but he is also sensitive to the performers condition and is very considerate, because of this he is Seowoo's role model. He thinks that the western-style house that he has lived in for more than 30 years is the best place to record.

Hi! It seems a bit quiet here hmmmm

I have watched the highlight teaser and it makes me more interested to this drama. At first I just slightly give an eye because I like both lead actors. But, when I read their reasons why chose this drama, it gives me a positive thought. And then I try to understand what the main plot from the highlight (because to be honest the short synopsis didn't give me a clue at all and it's not a type  of description that catch your attention straight away, an AI programmer and Music Engineer), and surprisingly the highlight teaser is so unique! I love the flow, cinematography, the music score, and the acting!

Maybe the viewers didn't give an attention yet. But I have positive thought that people start to interest to this drama as the drama is broadcasting!

 

By the way, thank you @choco milo for translating the character's description! So far it's a well-written character, I'm looking forward!

[rocher22]

That teaser looks interesting. I like it.

[Samuel Yohanes]

alright so... who the hell is jisoo ?????????????

 

its funny tho that she seems to be one of main character but no face of her???

[katty27]

I think she is the lady who does the record (pronounce) something like the anphabet of Korea in the teaser, I guess 

[tenten0227]

@Samuel Yohanes

Jisoo is Ha Won's (Jung Hae In) first love. She's mentioned a lot but they don't show her face in the teasers which makes it super mysterious ~ 

[_heywatch]

The cinematography looks fantastic. I like the tone & setting already. The idea about healing through music is an interesting approach. Finally, a full length teaser lol. I just watched the teaser highlight & the music is so beautiful. It looks promising. It gives off that lighthearted feeling themes about love & living. I forgot Kim Sung Kyu is in here & it's a 1st time in

romance drama. He was great in Kingdom. Btw, the main cast looks great. Love their fashion/outfits.

 

I'm assuming Jisoo is both estranged from her relationship with her husband Kang Inwook & her friendship Hawon? Like she just left in thin air & never contacted them at all lol. I'm excited to see how the Hawon & Seowoo work together through their expertise. They both seem like super intelligent & kind people. Seonwoo appears super relatable already, I like it. Hawon seem like a soft spoken person who spaces out alot lol. I dont know anything about AI programming or Music Engineering so I'm super curious about that aspect in the show.

 

@choco milo Thanks for the character description. Really helps put the teaser into perspective regarding each main characters. 

[ChunSungIm]

seems like  the drama not on netflix  but aired on viu instead,and i thought this is tvN drama,why theres article that i read that this is KBS drama.

[katty27]

@tenten0227

Thanks for the ENG teaser. 

 

@katty27

JHI has such a calm voice. He's perfect as a radio/dj host. He's such a cutie. I still cant believe he's 31. Boyishly handsome lol.
