My Lovely Girl’s One-name Wonder Cast: Alex and Hoya Join Rain, Krystal, and L — 13 Comments

  1. Nothing in this drama excites me, not even Rain. The only reason I would have watched an episode or two was because of Im Joo Eun but since she is out, I’m will avoid this like a plague

  2. Think you are right about this one, ms Koala. I would think Rain would have a little say-so about who is to appear with him, but maybe not. I’m sure he gets all his money up front, in case this turkey doesn’t fly!

  3. hahaha… casting for this drama is really turning out to be a mess…
    hope they prove me wrong but I don’t think I’d be tuning in even with Rain in it…

  4. I think this drama will be like Heirs, a hot mess thematically with acting ranging from pretty good to abysmal, which will nonetheless be a huge success in terms of ratings. They’ve thrown so many idols at this show that the sheer power of their frothy popularity will keep the ratings up.

    • Pretty sure this drama will flop. You’re beautiful, Dream High 1 & 2, To The Beautiful You etc all have as much as idols in the cast than this drama and all of those dramas flopped. Hard. Idols popularity may be high overseas but in Korea, their sole presence in a drama actually guarantee this drama’s failure. I can only think of one exception of dramas which succeeded with idols as leads: Gu Family Book. Top actors and actresses have a real power in terms of ratings success, 80% of the dramas starring top stars do well.

      Nevermind, the drama will do well overseas with all the Hallyu idols they have thrown in it but as for Korea, it would be surprising if it exceed 10% ratings.

      • Not sure if Dream High is considered a flop – the sequel definitely was, but the first one didn’t do too badly in terms of rating or international audience if i remember correctly. What’s ironic is that honestly speaking, compared to You’re Beautiful, Dream High (the first one, not the second) and maybe even To The Beautiful You, Gu Family Book was the real disappointment in terms of plot and acting.

  5. Off topic but Clazziquai released an album last year and they did a single for their 10th anniversary last month…and I thought a 10th anniversary album was coming but Alex doing this drama makes me think I heard wrong

    • Huge, huge Clazziquai fan here since Kim Sam Soon came out with that catchy theme song. Was about to make the correction but you beat me to it. 🙂 Blesssed came out last year and it’s awesome. If a 10th anniversary album comes out, I would flip.

  6. I think it would have been better (more amusing/interesting) if they could have cast Lee Joon or G.O. from MBLAQ. Both of them have acting experience and it would have been sooo funny considering the meta from being from the boy group Rain actually did raise. Actually I’m pretty sure anybody from MBLAQ would have been better than L based on acting skills… On the other hand L wasn’t terrible in Shut Up: Flower Boy Band when he was supposed to be a musician so I’ll cross my fingers for him.

  7. Well, if it turn out to be mediocre as trot lovers is, it will be such a shame to name this as a comeback project for Rain. At least in trot lovers eun ji is not annoying. So i can keep up with the stupid story line. I haven’t watch krystal in other drama than heirs so i can’t say much. But limited range of acting will sure left this premise as somewhat forgetable.

  8. Er, what happened to Rain’s star power? Since his scandal, is he a persona non grata in some industry circles? How can you go from starring with the likes of Song Hye Kyo and Gong Hyo Jin to a newbie like Krystal.

  9. I don’t understand all of these negative comments. Not one episode has aired but people are already predicting doom for the show. My Lovely Girl is about a man who falls in love with his dead girl friend’s younger sister. The story sound plausible to me and with Krystal as the star very believable. She’s a very lovely girl of 21 and it’s quite easy to fall in love with her. Krystal has been acting since she was 16 and has enough experience to handle the role of Lee Se Na. I think comedy is harder to perform then drama and Krystal has perfect timing and excels in funny situations. I thought she stole the show in Heirs. Her scenes in Heirs were the highlights of the series. I’m just saying give the girl a chance. She may surprise all of you.
