The arrival of MBC‘s new Wed-Thurs drama Shopping King Louie (Shopoholic Louis) snuck up on me, a combination of W: Two Worlds ending so listlessly and this drama not getting overly promoted. I’m totally going to check it out because the two leads Seo In Guk and Nam Ji Hyun are so winning in all the promos, from her patented country girl earnestness and his doofy lost boy schtick, the drama succeeds in selling the both the rom and the com aspects in previews alone.
The long preview released at the press conferences sets up the premise nicely and ends with the cutest shirt tug ever. The press conference itself is a hilarious odd mess, from second lead Yoon Sang Hyun dressed like Korean Colonel Sanders to second female lead Im Se Mi trying put a new Star Fleet cocktail waitress uniform, it’s all capped off by Seo In Guk rolling in like he rolled out of bed complete with messy hair, track pants, a hastily slapped on black sweater, and the requisite sneakers with no socks. He’s definitely channeling beggar Louie from the drama lol.
Long 5-minute preview for Shopping King Louie:
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 I didn't know this drama was a romance set in space and done K-drama…
If Wang Xing Yue ever needs extra money he can be a professional dubber for…

Hahahaha, Star Fleet cocktail waitress. Would love it if you decided to recap the show, I enjoy your recaps!
A Korean Colonel Sanders. Too funny. You have a way with words, Ms. K.
the fashion my eyes my eyes!!! thankfully they have nice faces and are all cute people
SIG is a hottie good thing he's not competing in ratings with LMH or is he?
He's not competing with Lee Min Ho. As far as I know, Shopping King Louie is up against On The Way To The Airport and Jealousy Incarnate. I find the other two both very boring so I have hope for Seo In Guk's drama to do well. Fingers crossed!
I like it so far!
i wasn't interested at first but long preview sold the show to me :D i will check this out :D
