• And how about those matching black tassel yellow suede slipons ?

  • Worse than the pants, really! ;)

• Jeon Ji Hyun is my girl crush. She is wonderful in You From Another Star and the only reason why I care about that show. I like the other actors, but she is just soooo good in it that I almost feel sorry for them. I was ready to buy whatever it was she was selling even before I knew what it was. Wish she was my best friend. Lee Jung Jae is adorable even in those pants that look like they escaped from an 80s Laura Ashley dress and those Disney Alladin shoes.

  • These two are so adorable together. Hope that they will reunite for the upcoming Choi Dong Hun movie. Lol, Lee Jung Jae's wacky outfit totally matches his mischievous smile. That getup is so him.

• i see you threw in a kim soo hyun diss, without fail
  in some ways it seems as though you have been set on disliking his performance from the early stages
  but hey, if you don't write him off, maybe he'll win you over in his next role

  • ....except Koala's been open about liking his past performances and CFs, if you must paint her as an anti at least try and pick an actor she hasn't been openly loving on for the last two years!

    • I am aware that she has expressed liking for him in the past, but not for any of his recent work. With YWCFTS, her dislike for his portrayal of the character appears rather fervent (which I find odd, and perhaps undeserved). This is why I made my comment

  • The truth will set you free. Ms.K has good point, I'm dozing off on that drama if not for JJH. But what's this JJH legs upfront, it's like fit for a man, she should have it surgically enhance, it's possible. (I know a lot will hate me,sorry!)

  • Thats because he is so bland compared to her. The only reason his acting in MTETS and DH got so much praise is cause he was acting opposite `brick wall` called Han Ga In and `white piece of paper` called Suzy ,so in comparison his acting seemed great.

    Now that his acting opposite really strong actress ,you see all the flaws and weaknesses in the way he acts.

    • I think KSH being bland compared to JJH here does not equal him being a lacking actor. I think this role just isn't right for him, and at his still young age not being able to nail each and every role isn't a failing that would undermine his entire acting repertoire. Not every actor is a Ha Jung Woo or a Shin Ha Kyun, able to knock each and every role out of the park.

      I agree his praise for MoonSun was ridiculous. That was such an overrated performance I was embarrassed for him to win the Baeksang that year. That said, I thought he was phenomenal in both Dream High, Will it Snow for Christmas, and Giant, and in DH it wasn't because he was acting opposite Suzy or Taec. He really was just that good as Sam Dong. My fear is that he's gotten too big too quickly he'll get offered roles he's not ready to tackle yet. It feels that way for him being Do Min Joon. The role feels too big for his britches is all, I still love his acting when he's right for a role. :-)

    • I disagree that he either shines or is bland depending on his onscreen costars (that comparison for me is related more to chemistry and how in-sync the costars are). You have to separate an individual's performance in order to objectively critique them. He was strong in those roles because he nailed them, but weaker in a role that required more experience in acting.

      My biggest gripe about his performance in YFAS really boils down to nuance and restraint and how one is able to portray the right emotions without that emotional block. (This is coming from someone who still very much enjoys YFAS despite that reason).
      I think Kim Soo Hyun is still a very young actor and still very new to the world of acting (4 years since his WISFC debut). He's a talented boy but still learning. Nuance/restraint to me is a skill that often times older, more experienced actors can pull off to a tee. I don't think it's exclusive only to them since there are exceptions(Kim Jae Wook on the top of my head right now), but it's something I attribute to the more experienced sunbaes. Even Kim Nam Gil who i love to death could not pull off nuance in Shark, but part of that was how he was written and an even bigger part to the directing. Still love him though, just like i still love KSH.
      Kim Soo Hyun has a penchant for shining when he plays adoring country bumpkin (dream high), bumbling idiots (secrety, greatly), or tortured childhood (WISFC). It's that area in between (nuance) that he has yet to master.
      You can ask him to be an idiot and he'll be charming. You can ask him to load up the intensity and he will, my god he will. But if you ask for a more controlled performance, that's where he fails ultimately. (Thank god for his eyes).

    • I think that part of the reason KSH fails in most of his recent roles is that he doesn't have the life experience to convey the right kind of depth to his character. All of the roles he truly shined in are age appropriate and easily relatable to his own person. Both his role in MoonSun and here in StarMan are so divorced from himself that he's turning out to be bland. KSH is simply not old enough to do it; the nuance and control will only truly come with age and wisdom on top of general acting talent. You can certainly figure it out as a youngster (SJK for example), but unfortunately for KSH, he's skyrocketed to stardom so fast that he has no time to learn.

• jeon ji hyun is really gorgeus. She's one of the most beatiful K-actress in my list (Song Hye Kyo, Yoon Eun Hye, and Kim Tae Hee are among the list). She's really daebak in You Who Came from the Stars. For God's sake, she and Kim Soo Hyun are making a really god couple with amazing chemistry.

• I love him love him love him.

  Il Mare was my first Korean anything.

  I watched it on a scratched up DVD from the library and couldn't believe how immersed I was, how GORGEOUS this handsome architect was, and how cool the girl was.

  And the puppy dog!! So cute.

  I think I will watch it again for the 50th time tonight after IN A GOOD WAY.

• She is perfectiom. <3

  • She really is.

    She was my first-ever Korean bias after My Sassy Girl, and YFAS just tightened her hold on that spot (Shin Mina and Gong Hyo-jin were #2 and 3, but JJH will always be special to me because it was through her that I discovered k-ent in the first place).

• JJH is gorgeous. Her white & blue outfit is so simple, and yet she looks so amazing in it!

• Can I just say that LJJ has a million watt smile? He lights up the whole shot, and it's almost unnatural! XD

• Oppa, those pants...the shoes...no. Keep smiling doe.
