When an actor/actress really connects with me in a certain character, even if I’m happily watching them in future projects in different roles, they will always live inside my heart in the role they won me over with. For Lee Min Jung and Gong Yoo, both of whom have always been cute to watch onscreen but not much else, Big magnified my love for him in the roles of Da Ran and Kyung Jae (Kyung Joon in Yoon Jae’s body). While on their own, neither Kyung Joon nor Da Ran is all that interesting or even memorable, but together they were my own personal perfection. I still can’t explain why I love them so, only that I really do and its a feeling that won’t change even knowing the drama could have been so much better. If I had to hazard a guess, its probably because their love story was so unexpected, so impossible, so hard won, and ultimately so satisfying to know they grew up together during the shared experience and had the guts to choose each other (even if we didn’t see all the details). Lucky for me, the two of them continue to pair up together for clothing brand Mind Bridge, and their just released official pictures from the Fall 2012 campaign should be titled “Grown Up Kyung Joon and Da Ran are Finally Together, Hurray!”
Damn his legs are long!
I love your title for the campaign so much ! Seeing them together will always make me think of KJ and DR together in the end. Who can resist that smile of his?!
I agree with you 100%!
Awww thanks for this. It makes my little heart-parts-in-my-brain happy.
I love them the same way, and you are prolly right about their storyline being a surprise, and thus, captivating. Good point.
This photo shoot just underlines how much they belong together on screen again. How about in 5 years?
awww…so we get real happy ending, don’t we???
Uri couple get together….
Agree with you, even they will make project together, I keep think they are Kyung Jae anda Da Ran…
Kyung Joon got his happy ending , and they’re even working together as models =P
Dear koala, I can understand how you feel , even under such difficult circumstances ( haters, a bad ending , weird scripts ) this OTP made a lot of people to fall for them , that’s their real magic …. THEM ( Lee Min Jung & Gong Yoo )!
Dear ackoala, you always have something good to say about the pair, more particularly to Gong Yoo. That’s why we love you. Thank you so much for your very wonderful and insightful writings.
