This is the best case of K-drama character acting I recollect ever seeing so a huge kudos to Ji Chang Wook for being so darn entertaining. The leads of The K2 jetted off to Spain this week for location shoots prior to the drama’s premiere in mid-September. It’s cutting it close but I have faith in PD Kwak Jung Hwan to take full visual advantage of the overseas splendor. Ji Chang Wook and Yoona were on the same flight and both rocking their character looks – he’s a military man turned hired bodyguard with the code name K2 while she’s the rich illegitimate daughter of an aspiring presidential candidate with his actress paramour. She’s looking beautiful in her casual plane attire but he’s full on being the spy with the sunglasses and face guard, lol.

koala can you comment or post on their second trailer including song yoona? their teasers seemed intense and dark, i can't wait for the k2!
ji chang wook's trailer was good
yoona's... i have no words, girl just oozes awkwardness.. her tone is nice though
What are you talking about? Yoonas trailer was much more intense and telling than JCW trailer. His was just him being hot, hers actually showed glimpses of her personality. I liked both hers and Song Yoonas trailer better than JCW tbh.
you saw the other yoona's teaser? now that's intense without being awkward.
it looked decent, I normally dislike her acting but her acting in that trailer delivers, the problem is it was too short so I can't judge her yet
Mean ?
Maybe it will be another Yong Pal where male lead is the key of drama success. I saw Yoona's teaser but I still just feel so-so towards her. But Yongpal has Joo Won. Don't know whether Chang Wook as good as Joo Won in terms of acting. Lets see.
The presumption makes sense to me since similarly the drama is titiled K2, the code name of the hero, just as Yong Pal referred to Joo Won's character. JCW certainly can carry a drama alone and he has star power to draw i fans thanks to his rising popularity with Empress Ki and Healer. I also hope a substantial amount of screen time will be given to JCW albeit the other two costars are established veteran actress and a popular idol. Besides, tvN offered JCW the highest pay each ep among all the cast for all the tvN dramas in history. What's the point to invest a large lump sum in an actor if he isn't expected to nor can he make it a success?
Well, Ji Chang Wook is indeed popular overseas but not in Korea. And he's not popular as great-acting actor like Yoo Ah In or Joo Won. So, depends on what team production aim, but I'm sure it will be a hit in China. Yoona alone is extremely popular in China.
@Gaby, JCW is very popular in China too. After Empress Ki and Healer, he ranked top on some Chinese polls about K celebrities, along with LMH, KSH, LJS, SJK, etc. I've never seen YAI or JW in those polls, however, albeit they might be more popular in S Korea. Also, as I said, what's the point for tvN to pay him all time high, even higher than Gong Yoo. There are reasons.
JW is alo popular in China otherwise the Huayi Brothers Entertainment in China wouldn't invest on his company labe, and has been awarded the Most Influential Asian in China..
yeah I noticed that too,it is like she is trying to act tough or something hope she delivers , i guess you have to have a face that can display a variety of emotion, i would like nana for this role , the girl has a badass face yoona is too soft
I actually prefer Yoona's trailer. Usually, Yoona does nothing for me, I am just not taken by her looks or the way she acts. Surprisingly, she looked different in the clip. That said, it was too short to judge if she has improved or not in her ability to act. At least she delivered the lines pretty well. Ji Chang Wook continues to give Healer vibes.
Let's hope Yong Pal writer learnt a thing or two from his last work. YP started so well and it's a pity the writer lost his way in the second half.
I see Yoona haters are in all force already here. Literally everybody are praising her trailer, it was first time seeing Yoona actually delivering emotions with just her eyes. I loved the shorter version where she looks more determent.
Song Yoona lookd amazing i her trailer too, her smile at the end gave me chills.
JCW was him being Healer all over again lol. Hot as ever but i didn't get any preview of what we might expect from his character in terms of personality.
more like yoona defenders are in full force here
You are attaching her based on two minute trailer though.
lol you guys have weird definitions of "attacking"
i said she was awkward and complimented on her tone and you guys already branded me as a hater lol
How can JCW even breathe with that mask on? It covers nose and mouth.
I naturally don't like yoona's acting. Always awkward like suzy's . I hope wookie oppa saves dis drama. Looking forward to it
Yoonas acting is not nearly as awkward as Suzys tbh.
No offense to Suzy fans. Any idol turned actresses I've watched so far is better than Suzy. Yoona is pretty decent in Prime Minister and I.
typo - *are* better than Suzy.
Why comparing with Suzy? Anyone is better than Suzy imo... LOL... Please stop mentioning unrelated idol in this drama thread.
i'm so excited for this new drama !!! i hope it will be good enough to compete with healer xD
They r one good looking pair! I actually want to watch this lol
