So before Big started I was all geared to love the doctor-teacher OTP played by Gong Yoo and Lee Min Jung. I figured once Gong Yoo’s doctor swapped souls with his fiancee Gil Da Ran’s high school student Kang Kyung Joon played by Shin Won Ho, it would just be funny hijinks and the romance of the jokey variety until the real soul swapped back. Lo and behold, one episode into Big, things have been thrown into a tailspin. For one, the main character appears to be high school student Kyung Joon, and I’m wondering if we’re watching the soul-switch version of Romance (the student-teacher romance K-drama with Kim Ha Neul and Kim Jae Won). Second, if that is indeed the case, I HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH THAT. I already ship Da Ran and Kyung Joon rabidly, screw the age difference. And she’s not really his teacher since he just transferred to that school having just returned to Korea from the US. I have no clue from which cabbage patch the adorable, nnnnggggggg eye-catching Shin Won Ho popped out from, but he’s been added to my treasure trove. MINE. He’s like a combo Song Joong Ki and Yoo Seung Ho. He almost steals the show from Gong Yoo in episode 1, but thankfully Gong Yoo is taking over now that their souls have switched. Still, this boy has got some serious potential and I’m so excited to find a new cutie pie to watch develop his career.
Just so you all know, Shin Won Ho is completely legal. He’s twenty-one already! Yay for not being jailbait, but he still needs to be in ICOMYM for the time being. Boo.
I have such a soft spot for C-actress Yang Mi and it just makes me…

Mrs Koala, i will let you have him. But i must say i spotted him before you in the infamous Bachelor Vegetable Store as the cute Idol Daddy (trademark). :) He is indeed very promising and a new noona killer in dramaland.
I agree, like, TOTALLY agree.
I passed by while searching for a love interest board or something
that could confirm me that Shin Won Ho, or his soul (but I hope his body too),
would be somewhat the endgame..
to think that I didn't even know who he was until like five minutes ago..?
*spoiler*
found it and it seems like they are the OTP, perfect.
It's crazy how much I adore them already, and it's only episode 1! The drama itself is rather boring though.
To be honest about the drama I don't know yet..
they still have to introduce the female rivals and today, with the incident, the drama and all, was just a prologue, I'm really curious about the switch-bodies thing too, will it last? will they go back and forth during the show? anyway, as for now, I'll trust them to make me laugh in the next episodes, they're the Hong sisters after all and..
who cares about "storyline" when you've the perfect OTP??
*lost her mind*
I think I'll love this pairing from the stills alone! And I'm always in for a fun teacher-student romance. But the age difference is pretty big considering he'll be what, 17 or 18? To me, he looks like L (Infinite)..
It's six-years both way. Gong Yoo's doctor is 30, Lee Min Jung's teacher is 24, and Shin Won Ho's high school student is 18.
ICOMYM?
Inappropriate Crush On Much Younger Men
:)
Ah - thanks! :D
Ah! I think I'm always guilty of that in k-dramaland...
All the charming male leads are younger than me,
an ahjuma. Sigh ....
I always associated him with Shut Up boy band, besides also being in Bachelor's vegetable store. In ep one, one scene and only that one scene stole the whole shipbang for me. it was when gong yoo step out in the white sheet covering with his whole upper body showing. With the dramatic music, min jung smear mascara, and his confuse superior face, i just burst out laughing all the way through the scene then i just fastfoward everything after that. I am a fan of his body.
He wasn't in Shut Up Flower Boy Band. It was Myungsoo (also known as L) from the idol boy band Infinite. But I can TOTALLY see how you would make that mistake. They look like twins at certain angles.
LOL...you are so right
that is one promising cutie pie
"He almost steals the show from Gong Yoo in episode 1"
Woahhhh!! Your admission alone makes me want to watch the drama.
I have watched the first episode and I would say, the Hong sisters have lost their steam. Their last romcom, BEST LOVE, was so-so plus the chemistry of the main leads were just average (the second lead actually have more chemistry with the heroine!)
Oooo, my dear Pily...one of the most dearest second leads for me.
I like his look. But his voice voice voice is turning me off.
I totally ship these two - age difference be damned. Especially with Gong Yoo's character being a douche. (well, not a complete douche but yea...) He's too busy for her? Then I'm all for the younger, hotter guy stealing her away. *hee* (I'm just making up my own plot)
