Lee Jun Ki and IU Lead the Cast of K-Bu Bu Jing Xin at Happy Drama Wrap Party

This is a well deserved drama filming wrap party as any, with the full cast of upcoming K-adaptation of Bu Bu Jing Xin attending a shindig after a good 7 long months of filming. The fully pre-produced drama is schedule to air on SBS Mon-Tues at the end of August following Doctors, and will also air simultaneously in China for those viewers who want to sample a different take on the original source novel story by writer Tong Hua.

Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo (Dalui Yeonin – Bobogyungsim: Ryeo) is apparently the official English title, such a mouthful I can’t even, and maybe done because the cast is so big and bustling with famous pretty faces might as well give it more descriptors in the title. IU arrived with Kang Na Neul who is super happy despite the floppy hair all over his face, whereas male lead Lee Jun Ki is rocking the short hair and funky cool attire complete with awful jean shorts that he manages to pull off.

  • Seriously tho, Lee Jun Ki looks like the younger one here. HE LOOKS LIKE A KID,SO CUTE!!!!

  • Everything about Lee Jun Ki is super gorgeous except that I hate hate hate that stupid shorts which made him look far from lanky. I know that he is considerably short compare to the rest of the male casts but Jun Ki-shi, do me a favour and get rid of that awful piece for good.

    Agree that he looks younger than the rest of the boys and even funnier that he is MORE BEAUTIFUL than IU. It is really not easy to compete against Jun Ki whom androgynous look make him so suavely handsome and beautiful at the same time. Can't see not even a trace of 4th Prince's smexy coldness that he pulled in those SH's stills, posters and trailers. What a chameleon he is.

    Couldn't wait for the drama to finally air on my birthday (squeal) and enjoy my birthday feasting on the smexiness that is Lee Jun Ki. I have a good feeling it will be a hit.

  • I don't know what a hype about LJK he look too feminine to me and the outfit is seriously ugly

    • Is he really hyped? I don't think so ( compared it with his early years ). His previous drama didn't do well in rating. The hype was around the drama Scarlet heart and it's biggest production.

      • U r maybe in the minority who couldnt get the appeal of Lee Jun Ki. But that's your preference so I am ok with that.

        He may not be as popular as he was back then but to think of a big budget production and large scale project that is Scarlet Heart courting him as d leading man speaks volume of what kind of an actor Lee Jun Ki. He not only has strong presence on-screen but has the star power.

        It's just too bad that his previous projects weren't doing well as he had no control of them either but he was d one depended on to carry the shows. He was chosen to play 4th Prince because they know that if anything, you can count on him to deliver a solid performance and gives his utmost commitment.

        He is versatile actor that not choosing to play safe with his role selection.

        You ll learn to appreciate him eventually but if you don't, then that's fine also. I still think he is so ravishingly handsome and an extremely talented actor.

      • @Del, I'm not part of the minority. I'm a fan of Lee Jun ki. He is a great and talented actor ( and I love his personality), you can trust him and he never disappoint me to give a good performance, even the mess story of Scholar. English is my 2nd language (hope you understand me), I hate people saying he is hype, and then afterwards people use his name to drag down others name and belittle him once the drama didn't do well.

    • The hype is LJK is a very charismatic actor & he looks extremely beautiful in sageuks. He has his unique charm. That pair of shorts is weird & makes him look shorter... smh... Please stay in sageuk outfits forever... lol......

    • I agree with Mimin. His features are too delicate and "pointy" for a man. But to each their own I guess...and WTH is he wearing? I hate it when Korean celebs try too hard with their fashion statements and it comes out all wrong.

    • @Shin. Am not referring to u. The comment was meant for @Mimin. Maybe I wrongly pressed the reply button. Apologized if my comment offended u.

    • I think he's good looking in an unique way but if you are talking about the hype, I agree I don't get all the fangirling and swooning over his beauty. That said, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder so I look at it more with amusement and figure I just don't get it.

      More than his looks, I am not impressed with his acting. Again, it's an unpopular opinion. Far from saying he's bad, I think he is stuck in a rut. Scholar That Walks The Night was bad and he didn't display any good acting in there either. I was hoping that he can finally show another side to his acting in this role because the 4th Prince is supposed to be an ambitious cold bastard and number one political player. I am not so sure now because Wang So looks more emo than cold and assassin like than a manipulator. BBJX was a weird mix of fantasy+romance+power politics. I may be looking for the wrong thing in this one.

      Anyway, I think he looks better in modern than saeguk. I preferred his looks in Two Weeks than all his saeguks put together.

      • Scholar Who Walks The Night not doing well has nothing to do with his acting, its all screenwriter's problem. He has done a lot to save the show though the ship still sink eventually.

        People always commented that he's stuck playing the same role but I don't get why it's fine for Lee Min Ho to play high schooler over and over again, Lee Jong Seok portraying a genius time and time again or Kim Woo Bin playing bad boys frequently. I am not bashing them but I am just curious why those not being questioned.

        If there's anything about Lee Jun Ki, he is fully committed to his role. Of course, better and more popular roles selection will go to much popular younger actors like Song Joong Ki, Yoo Ah In and Kim So Hyun as they are in their prime but wait till new crops of generation come out, they will experience what Lee Jun Ki is experiencing now. He was extremely popular back then and of course now there's new faces replacing him. LJK still doing very well and still a very much sought after actor who gets to pick and choose his project.

        I have full trust that he will do well as 4th Prince. Wang So being portrayed as emo or look more like an assassin to you was never his decision to make. He is an actor not the screenwriter.

      • I can distinguish between what is a writer's job and what is an actor's. I didn't care that SWWTN didn't do well if what you meant by do well means getting high ratings. I agree that the writing was terrible but I just don't think LJK was good in it.

        When I commented that he's stuck in a rut, I didn't mean that he's playing the same role. So what if it's a saeguk again and again? Even if an actor plays the part of a scholar for the umpteenth time, there's always room for differentiation. Clueless and clumsy scholar vs smartass and witty scholar vs suave heroic scholar. The possibilities are many. Playing the same role and genre is not problem. The problem is when an actor acts the same way, acts with the same facial expressions, displaying emotions in the same predictable ways no matter what role he plays. I don't watch enough of LJS and KWB to comment but let's take LMH. He plays himself in whatever role he takes. I don't care if he's a high schooler or a warrior or gangster, I only see LMH whenever he comes on screen. I don't want to compare LJK to LMH because LJK is much better. It's just that I noticed that he's falling into that same rut.

        I am not his fan and I never question any actor's commitment to his/her role. I only judge what I can see on screen and that's their acting.

      • We, his fans, see something on him, that the others didn't see. Some goes to other hype actor, we didn't see what the hype around them. It's in everyone preference.
        Re: his acting, that is the reason why I became his fan, not by his look or how good is his drama. And that is my preference.
        Why does people need to ask the hype around him, if they can't find it. Better to stick to their bias, and let his fan enjoy him.

      • We are Lee Jun Ki's fans and we see him more than just his pretty face. In fact he is well known for his beauty but he always strikes as a really serious actor with genuine talent.

        If you don't appreciate him and couldn't see what a great actor he is, then that's your loss. I don't agree that he demonstrated the same kind of expressions or acting the same way but that's your opinion.

        What i know is that he is a remarkable actor who has proven himself time and time again of what a charismatic thespian he is.

      • @D Why are you so buthurt of LJK so much? It's annoying me, when everytime i clicked on his articles i saw you talk shit about him! Lol sorry not sorry your bashing to him is so irrelevant for us :D

      • @Lin Couldn't agree more.
        He sure attracts @D to get her to comment on him or was the not so nice comment meant to resist his charm?
        This article not only abt LJK. Why not commenting on the ones u prefer like Kang Haneul or Ji Soo?
        I dont care what the minority said. LJK is my eternal bias.

  • Omg the pics of IU and Kang Ha Neul arriving together tho...he even held the umbrella for her. <3 Please don't make the 2nd lead syndrome too strong in this drama hehe. Lee Jun Ki looks handsome as always! Good luck to all of the cast!

  • I seriously can't wait for this drama! IU is effortlessly beautiful and Lee Jun Ki and Kang Ha Neul are so handsome. I hope this drama is hit with all of the hard work and effort the cast/staff put into this.

    IU and Kang Ha Neul were really cute coming to the wrap-up party together too ^^

  • Lee Jun Ki is soooo handsome but whats with that fugly shorts?

    Pray that the drama will be a big hit. My Jun Ki deserves all that recognitions, above most actors out there. After all hes been so hard working all these years.

  • They outfit like somebody have been trap in flood,lol. the picture more better when they jean get crop. Lee jun ki is good actor but i like kang ha neul progress career. I like him in 20 and like for likes,and he acting is crazy in empire of lust.

  • He is an English poet and translator named Oliver Bernard. He is gotta be around my great grandparent's generation.
