Downtrodden Yoona Needs Brawny Bodyguard Ji Chang Wook in Latest The K2 Stills and Teasers

The image of Yoona in tvN drama The K2 is bringing back so much deja vu feels from Yongpal, namely the visuals of Kim Tae Hee from that drama. It’s the long white hospital type gown, the flowing lustrous hair, the wan complexion looking dazed and confused, now I’m wondering if the screenwriter from Yongpal has some unknown complex for making his leading ladies start off helpless. Rather than being mentally locked up like Kim Tae Hee was in a coma for Yongpal, in The K2 Yoona is a shut in who never leaves her gilded residence, and clearly something happens to shake up her closed off existence. The new stills show her bare foot on the streets all ragged, and conversely news still of leading man Ji Chang Wook decks him out like the perfectly suited bodyguard. These new drama stills are just okay but the just released minute long drama preview looks amazing, intensity and action combined into one thrilling ride.

Downtrodden Yoona Needs Brawny Bodyguard Ji Chang Wook in Latest The K2 Stills and Teasers — 29 Comments

  1. Anticipation is so high for this drama come September 23 (drama premiere). Visual quality is good as seen in the teasers. Pacing, acting, & scriptwriting remains to be seen. Development of the story itself is crucial (yongpal). Top most of my excitement is Yoona’s improvement from PM&I to this?

  2. writer from yongpal you said?!!
    i hope she wont repeat the same mistake!!!
    that drama was ridiculed from plagiarism to excessive PPL!!

  3. Why did they have to ruin this show by casting Yoona? She has already proven herself to be a lousy actress. She does not belong with the rest of this awesome cast.

    • You didn’t even watch it yet and you’re already criticizing her. She may have improved from her past films. I didn’t even think she was that bad in “Prime Minister and I.” There have been plenty of actresses who were incredibly horrible but improved. How about watching it first before making any comments like this. I’m not even a fan of SNSD or Yoona but it’s so mean to put comments like these when it hasn’t even aired yet.

      • thank you for replayin to him , honest to god i dont understand these kind of comments that are mean and hateful , why dont you watch it first? besides she was wonderful in prime minister and i

    • right now, we shouldnt even need to worry about yoona level of acting…the writer is the problem…bad script can even make top star actor felt like terrible rookie sometimes…remember Hyde,Jekyll and I? hyun bin definitely does not make that drama any better…

    • What an awesome cast a lead male with zero hi t drama as lead also got song adulterer actress in important role ,who’s such disliked by gp that knetz are already saying they wouldn’t watch BC of her,right after her casting. And to top it the writer is the same infamous one from yongpal.

      With such an awesome east as such it’s indeed a wonder why the PD were so hellbent and desperate on casting yoona.
      When its themself that are actually investing in the drama and they are not some total irrelevant ifan that steams illegally from kissasian and spewing hate stuff in bitternes pretending they are important like unlike u,when it actually means moot.

      Edit: dp by mistake

  4. I saw a bTS vid where they shot a car-chase scene using 100+ cameras. tvN is really going all out.

    Yoona is def trying her hardest you can tell in the bTS vids. So far I think she looks good but let’s see!

  5. I hope Yoona delivers, she was very promising in her last project and has done a few since then to gain a bit experience. The bigger problem could be the writer, Yong Pal just slipped its track and despite the ratings success never quite recovered. And recent experience has taught me that there is indeed a thing called too much buzz for too little content. So, I will be cautiously optimistic so that I can take it in whatever maybe the results.

  6. Yoona’s on point in her dancing, singing, emceeing, TV appearances, FMs, CFs, and acting. She always has been. She’s a professional who’s confident in her talent and looks. She doesn’t have to go looking for attention. It comes to her. She doesn’t have to act beautiful or sexy. She is. She doesn’t have to go overboard trying to appear smart and witty. She is. She doesn’t ever talk about how great she is. She lets her performance do the talking for her. How will she be in The K2? She’ll let her performance do the talking.

  7. I frankly don’t have any Yongpal feel by just watching the short teaser posted up there.

    There are different reasons for watching dramas. For this one, staring at JCW’s beautiful face and his hotness overload is gratifying enough for me. LOL

  8. I hope this drama is as good as it looks. I need my Ji Chang Wook fix. But no amount of hotness from an actor will make me watch a bad drama.

  9. the teaser reminds me of “Three Days”, especially the car explosion scene. Yoona has improved a lot in her acting skill. JCW – good action, nice face 🙂

  10. I haven’t decided on Yoona but I got to give her credit for looking the part and she did well in the trailer.

    Actresses do get the short end of the stick. As far as I can see, it’s not like there’s a great chasm between Yoona and JCW’s acting abilities. But it’s quite predictable where this is heading. If it fails, it must be Yoona’s fault and if it succeeds, all thanks to JCW. And I am not even Yoona’s fan 😛

    It is not just this pairing. IU gets all the hate in Scarlet Heart while Lee Jun Ki gets all the love. These clearly aren’t the only examples

    • IU is getting criticism, sure but not all of it invalid. She does fail here and there when she needs to step it up. She is strictly okay but when there’s Baekhyun in the mix, even IU can pass with flying colors when put next to his 10th Prince.
      But, yeah, I get your point. It will either be JCW’s success or Yoona’s failure.

  11. What an awesome cast a lead male with zero hi t drama as lead ,also got the female actress song adulterer in important role who’s such disliked by gp that knetz are already saying wouldn’t watch BC of her ever since her casting.And to top it the writer is the same infamous one from yongpal.

    With such an awesome east as such it’s indeed a wonder why the PD were so hellbent and desperate on casting yoona.

    When its themself that are actually investing on the drama and sincethey are not just some irrelevant international bitter hatespewer that would steam from kissasian illegally regardless who bitter opinion would mean a moot.

  12. Why everyone seems doubt about Yoona’s acting? Ji Chang Wook also just a so-so actor though. If she paired with Joo Won or Yoo Ah In, I could understand if people doubt, but Ji Chang Wook? He’s just an okay actor for me.

  13. I’m interested in this drama, it looks intense and suspensful and love Ji Chang Wook who looks perfect for this role!! my only concern is the writing but a mistake doesn’t define the entire career of person so we can hope that the same mistake won’t take place again in this drama!! lets hope for the best for this drama and cast!!
