The just wrapped K-movie Chilling Romance, with Lee Min Ki and Son Ye Jin, released a few new stills as the movie enters post-production. Lee Min Ki has a slew of movies either just finished or lined up, so I don’t think we’ll see him back in dramas anytime soon. Neither does it look like Son Ye Jin will leave movies in the near future as well.
I don’t blame either of them – both of them gave it their all in their last dramas, which were absolutely stinkers of a plot and/or execution. I plowed through all of Personal Taste and I Really, Really Like You for Ye Jin and Min Ki (okay, LMHMG was also another reason I stuck with PT), and afterwards I wanted to go bleach my brain. Chilling Romance, however, sounds totally intruiging.
Chilling Romance tells the story of a woman (Son Ye Jin) who begins to see spirits after a car accident (a twist on what happened to the lead character in the HK-horror movie The Eye). Her new founded ability finds herself intersecting with a magician (Lee Min Ki) who uses spirits as part of his spectacle of a magic show. CR is a rom-com of sorts, so I expect cuddlier spirits than the ones which pervaded The Eye. This movie and coupling definitely looks promising for me.
So this is the drama trolly producer Yu Zheng recently praised as better than Goblin…
So the most recent casting for this drama is now confirmed as the final selection…
So there is a popularity award in both the film and the television sections of…
I have such a soft spot for C-actress Yang Mi and it just makes me…
So Queen of Tears was filmed in 2023 and wrapped awhile ago so it's not…
I think viewers are being either honest or stingy with their votes but the latest…

Love Minki. So, so much!!!
in PT it looked to me that the PD didn't exploit his ACE - Son Ye Jin looks - contrary - kids saw her as ugly (when she's not) or trying to be cute when she is can do Hot and sexy like no other and a lil bit less fragile and vulnerable -
Evasive Inquiry Agency was the drama that made LMK to forget about television
he is not the only guy who is doing chungmuro rather than dramas
Kang Dong Won did it after Magic
Song Hye Kyo after Worlds within
Won Bin didn't made a drama since 2002
Lee Byung Hun made a single drama since 2003 - until now no sign he is doing another one soon
Choi Ji-Woo none since 2008 and counting
Lim Soo-Jung is listed only with I'm sorry I love you and School 4
and so on
arghhh Edit button and bad English grammar (auch)
Sounds totally intriguing.
Is IRRLY that bad? I haven't watched it yet. It can't be worse than PT, though, can it?
No, it isn't worse than PT. I can actually stand IRRLY for Min Ki, just be prepared to park your brain and watch the pretty.
They look good together.. looking forward to the movie!!
I might watch IRRLY for Min Ki.. And as for PT, I liked it for all the couple moments as well..
I actually liked IRRLY, mostly for the Eugene-Lee Min Ki chemistry. Plus it was earlier on in my kdrama obsession, so I was probably more forgiving back then. It could have been a lot shorter though - Ryu Jin's parts dragged on unnecessarily.
i like that ! ..i`ll wait the DVD ! ..hehehe
Cuddly spirits... like the ones that followed Cha Tae Hyun around?
Sounds interesting... plus Lee Min Ki yayyyyyyyy, love him in Dal Ja's Spring :)
Oooh. I am such a sucker for robes....black sorcerer's robes....*droool*
