I showed my sister a scene from Bride of the Century and told her who Lee Hong Ki was and she did a double take and went “omo, that’s the dude who played Jeremy?” That’s pretty much been the exact same reaction anytime a non-Lee Hong Ki fan who has only ever encountered him via You’re Beautiful reacts in seeing him Choi Kang Joo in BotC. I know he’s an idol boy and likely quite flamboyant and playful in real life, but can I ask the boy to keep his hair black forever and wear suits more often? He looks so good in BotC it’s mind boggling, or maybe just good as in exactly my particular dish of tasty man candy. I’ve loved Choa‘s song off the OST “Words I Couldn’t Say Yet” ever since it was released, the entire soundtrack is thus far fantastic but this definitely my favorite track. Which makes it doubly awesome that this song is the one Lee Hong Ki gets to release a version of and the full song just dropped. It was first used in the drama in episode 7 when wuri Kang Joo starts thinking about his time with Doo Rim but I’m guessing we’ll be hearing a lot more of it going forward. I actually hope Lee Hong Ki releases another song for the sountrack, I confess that not only did I gloss over his scenes in You’re Beautiful, I also glossed over his singing for that drama as well. I never understood the hullabaloo over the so-called bus singing scene. Miahne Hong Ki baby! Noona will make it up to you by devoting the next four weeks to waxing rhapsodic all about you and BotC. All you need to do is kiss Yang Jin Sung more in the drama, preferably at least three times per episode. Accidentally kissing will also reluctantly be accepted as counting towards the kissing requirement.
Lee Hong Ki’s version of “Words I Have Yet to Say”:

This drama was apparently in talks with C-actor Ding Yu Xi before his just aired…
This year 2024 has been a slow year for K-actress Suzy in terms of her…
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…

If you want kisses there's a video, on his Instagram, of him kissing his BOTC Dad like a baby bird eating...you can hear YJS in the background laughing
What's his iG acct? Thanks :)
@skullhong12
You crack me up! Does this mean that you're going to check him out in We Got Married? I believe you skipped him on your last watch. While he & a Fujii Mina were no where near as adorable as Gui Gui & Taecyeon, Lee Hong Ki was adorably clueless, dense, and so sweet at the same time.
ewww...don't watch his wgm. it's totally going to ruined kangju's perfect image lmao!
his wife is so needy and annoying, i prefer taecgui!
Huh? Fujii Mina was the sweetest bride. What are you on about? xD
Leer tus comentarios me hacen el día!!!
Koala, you're in love with hongki
I also glossed over him in you're beautiful because I thought his character was such a filler that most of the time he was on screen it was non existent. The bus singing was not all that at all but the title song that he sang in you're beautiful was nice. Other than that you wouldn't even have noticed him if not for his characters silliness in that drama. But in BotC it is totally different and you probably wouldn't have connected the two if you don't google his name. That is because the 2 characters are so different. Can't wait for your next BotC update.
Actually I'd skip all of the personal stuff on him in order to enjoy him as Kang ju on Bride of the Century. It's like Kim Soo Hyun - what do we know about the guy really except that he's a good actor and maybe a couple other tidbits. This is coming from someone who liked hongki - even when he he used to be fat, blonde, jeremy-esque, mischievous, etc. And I still like him for his singing voice, transparency, the way he takes care of his prims, and now as an actor.
He is doing such a good job in Bride of the Century and it took me awhile to get used to him like this, but it really does 'suit' him.
Miss Koala, did you see the new stills? Kangju & Doorim at the church getting married and sucking face?
I agree with you miss Koala that all he need to do is to kiss Yang Jin Sung more and more and more often \^^/
Ohh.. You got the right idea my dear koala...
3 kisses per episode... Excluding hand holding, hugging...
Wait can't ... Hope the writers are reading this and make our dreams come true... ;)
I can listen to this song all day with a crazy smile on my face! Hope they release some official MV for this so we can watch him singing this song!
How I wish that he gets to sing this live in any of the music variety shows!
