Looking at these pictures makes me feel nostalgic. Seeing Moon Geun Young wrapped in layers of Winter wear immediately transports me back to the magical Winter of 201o where a certain moppy-haired resourceful girl crossed paths with a languid rocker with commitment issues. It’s the dead of Summer in Seoul, but Moon Geun Young and Won Bin are already shooting the ads for the Winter ’11 collection for Basic House Korea.
My initial assessment of this pairing as the BH spokescouple still stands – both look amazing modeling the clothes individually, but together the awkwardness is through the roof. Won Bin barely registers Geun Young’s presence, and she acts like her uncle Won Bin is trying to sneak a peek at her diary. These two should never ever play an OTP in any capacity, but instead shall continue to wow me with their individual projects.
It’s nice to sneak a peek at the Winter trends in Korea through these pictures. A muted selection of camel, grey, burgundy to reds, and Winter whites make up the color palette, and the styles are going for a tailored chic vibe. I actually like all of the clothes, but sadly I never need such bundling up in my neck of the woods even in the dead of Winter.

MGY is cute but I couldn't picture Basic House without YEH!
Same here. I miss seeing YEH in the Bh photoshoots.. but these two are doing a great job..
You're right Ms Koala, they look really awkward together! But they look so sweet by themselves!
Won Bin is toooooo thin, I'm worried!
I agree, he is THIN.
Moon Geun Young is absolutely the best outerwear model ever. If I were pretty and could afford all those coats and sweaters, I'd buy them. She is a very lovely girl.
Lee Min Ho is lovely too. He was good in City Hunter.
Ms Koala, thank you for this blog of yours. It cheers me up even when it makes me sad. I really love your writings.
Sonia, I haven't seen you in the other forum lately. how Re you doing.???
Hi N:)
Always read Ms Koala but not a geun2 shipper. Glad you said hello. Still and always a Ms Moon fan. Take care and good luck in Seoul.
you mean won bin?
No meant the banner of Lee Min Ho. Won Bin is the one next to Moon Geun Young.
WB looks really young here! :) These are really nice outfits which I'm sure I can use in the dead of winter here. However, I'm usually too cold to care how I look as long as I'm not freezing in what I'm wearing. I love summer! Even with the 100 degrees and the humidity... still better than snow & icy winters.
I find Moon Geun Young not that pretty or cute but Park Sin Hye is 10x better.
I find that both are pretty in their own unique ways.
beautiful moon geun young, she's so cute
God! Moon Geun Young is so cute. She's always at her best without doing anything... Class and Timeless.
why does WB have the Dokko Jin haircut?
These spread made me miss YEH & HB and YEH with KHJ. Not bad combination though like siblings.
latch onto your post - WB - could kill with one gaze... gosh. And they look like there's a great wall of china between them in the couple pics... if you're a fan, you can cut them out separately and it wouldn't spoil the pics one bit!
Ms Koala - thanks much for the post!!! lots of putting the pics together :) :)
