My pretty Playful Kiss babies Jung So Min and Kim Hyun Joong were reunited earlier this month for a fan meeting in Tokyo, and Hyun Joong also followed that up with some performances for his new mini-album. It’s almost the one-year anniversary of PK’s premiere, which also reminds me that I’ve been recapping dramas for an entire year. How time flies.
Min Min looks AMAZING, as always, and I’m completely digging Hyun Joong’s new look (hairstyle and color), though I am still quite peeved about his new nose. But I still love him, because he’s just so darn cute! I always suspected PK was really a J-dorama masquerading as a K-drama, and it’s wonderful to see the drama gain such popularity and recognition over there.

I don't know if it's his hairs or his nose but he looks totally different.
I dunno what you think about his nose? Care to share? LOL I also feel like something's changed in him (not just his hairstyle) but I can't pinpoint it...
Uhm, he got a new nose.

I noticed it when he showed up at the PK Osaka fan meeting in May. Actually everyone commenting here noticed it. New bigger nose.
He didn't actually confirm it until a month later. Look, I adore him, but I much prefer his old nose.
Oh... so that's what's off. I thought something looks different because of his new shorter 'do cause I can't tell that much.
Well at least he didn't hide it like most celebrities do. That's a good move. :) I prefer his old nose too.
I want his old and humble nose now he looks like a big nose with a small face...shoot the art of discontentment....it sucks I used to love this face shop guy....man is 200 pound beauty influence gonna be a lasting era!!!! :-(
The nose job was done way before BOF and Playful Kiss, why all the fuss ? He didn't do it after PK you know?
@ Kitty
I can assure you that he got that nose job after PK. Likely sometime between Jan-March of this year. It doesn't take a plastic surgeon's eye to discern that his nose looks completely different than his old one in PK and BOF. He may have already had an old nose job, but he got a new one. If it weren't so honking different I probably wouldn't have noticed or cared. He can get as many nose jobs as he likes, doesn't change how much I adore him.
But to like Hyun Joong and then blindly buy whatever his agency doles out as gospel is silly. You have eyes, sweetie, just put his pre-2011 and post-2011 pictures side by side. Especially the profile ones. He's new nose is about 2 degrees higher than the old one, and larger in width as well.
I think we can like our stars AND still use our own brains when it comes to news pertaining to them.
If everyone is noticing he looks completely different, there is a reason for that.
Then that makes me like JSM even more because she didn't do anything to her face.
I very much dislike his nose in PK, that was chopped at the end and uneven nostrils. But nose in PK....was also not his original nose either. My favorite is still the one he was born with (circa 2005), no idea why they had to go and mess with it. But I like the new nose including the size since it has character. Heh.
I liked his old nose better too. This nose is a little too thick for his fine features. That's a shame.
is it? i thought it was recently done..
@Kitty how'd yah she didn't LOL :-P
he has his nosejob..for reason why?
check out this site...http://www.allkpop.com/2011/06/kim-hyun-joong-admits-to-nose-work
Wow. They are too cute together but yeah he looks different. Still pretty but a nose job changes that certain something about a person's face.
I hope you don't stop blogging for a long while. I love reading your stuff.
Thank you Ms Koala.
HUGS. Thank you for the encouragement and always kind words to me. It really gives me the energy to keep going. ^__^
Jung So Min didn't do nothing more after PK aside that mv with So Ji Sub... won't she be in anew drama soon? Does you know what she is doing lately Koala? Cfs?
She's doing CF. And as far as I know, she'll be having a new drama soon. ^^
wow...that news to me...since PK...i'm looking forward to Somin's new drama...really adore her.... ^^
He looks very different. He also looks really thin even though I know there are giant muscles under there...may be because his clothes look baggy... I can't understand why already hot people get plastic surgery. It's like you're cooking a fine dish and you think you probably added enough salt, but you doubt yourself and add more... and then the dish is too salty.
Playful Kiss was so my guilty pleasure last year. I giggled through the whole drama. Long live robot boy Baek Seung jo!
i was wondering why he looked so odd to me! something was just off with his face. why do perfect people get surgery? they always end up ruining their glorious faces.
I like his new nose. His old one bugged the crap out of me because his nostrils were so obviously uneven.
This. I partially agree. Weather it's his old nose or new nose, i didn't like both. But his new one, i guess it's slightly better, though it's too big to my liking, but you're so right about his old nostrils. they bugs me so much. I guess with his new nose, his nostrils got better.
but me likeeeyy him in person :) he's cute with the new hair!!
Ok your statement made me do a cartwheel, I like I don't like ahaha crazy :-P
I really liked watching Kim Hyun Joong in his SS501 days, the reality shows that they did, and watching BTS of BOF. He is such a natural on camera for reality shows, but when he is made to do a scripted drama, somehow i feel he is not his complete self fun guy. But who cares, more screen time of Kim Hyun Joong is always welcome.
I am not a big fan of Jung So Min, since she shot the hero in Bad guy, but its difficult to set eyes off Kim Hyun Joong when he is on screen. Anyone complaining?
Girl, Jung So Min is a actress, It was a character that shot the guy in the drama, get over her character. Pretty childish not liking her for that reason... well it can mean she acted very well to be this hated.
How can anyone not like the cutest girl in the world? Heh
I second the motion...how can anyone not like the cutest girl in the whole wide world!!! haha
count me three...how can anyone not like the cutest girl in the whole wide world!!! weeh
Count me four.. How could anyone not like the cutest girl in the whole universe??!! Seriously, she's too cute for words.. <33
seriously..... i like So Min....but y does she always wear her hair in a bun like that? i guess she can be cuter if she change the hair style... ^^
well, she did have a lot of hairstyles in PK...so I guess I won't be complaining if I see her in buns for a while
but I agree that she'd be so much cuter
Ah, it's the nose! I thought it bcoz of new hairdo and he's maturing.. ~ sadly I'm totally mistaken.. In my pov, the old nose was good, the new one is not bad either..
Still luv him new nose and all!!!
