You From Another Star Drops Two New Teasers with Jeon Ji Hyun and Kim Soo Hyun

‘

SBS is not wasting the chance to bandwagon on Heirs/The Inheritors great ratings and its follow up drama You From Another Star (You Came From the Stars) will air next week on December 18th. With that said, the promotional machine for this drama has been decidedly non-existent, especially stacked up against the juggernaut that was Heirs releasing stuff every week for months. It’s not even for the lack of big name stars since we’re got two movie star A-listers with Jeon Ji Hyun and Kim Soo Hyun. Maybe last year I would have called Kim Soo Hyun a rising star but he’s headlined a box office smash movie all by himself with Covertly Grandly and with his Baeksang Best Actor win for The Moon Embraces the Sun so I’ll give him the early distinction of joining the young A-listers. The drama released a fourth teaser today that is less mood building and more character illuminating and I’m liking what I see. Jeon Ji Hyun plays Chun Song Yi, a top Hallyu actress with a self-absorbed personality and a foul mouth. Kim Soo Hyun is Do Min Joon, a calm and collected alien who have lived on Earth for the last 400 years and is currently a university professor. I like that he looks much younger but is the mature one, while she’s like a raging tornado who is going to turn his life upside down. I wrote in an early post about this drama set up that it will involve cohabitation between the two leads, which is basically contract marriage without the marriage. I wish the teasers would start showing the rest of the cast such as Yoo In Na and Park Hae Jin so I can get a sense of what to expect. Right now it feels like a mash-up of fantasy and comedy with a side of melancholy. The drama palette is very pretty (though I think Miss Korea looks prettier) and we’re getting two gorgeous leads who are playing characters that are beautiful in the drama so I’m expected lots of eye candy.
