First Poster for Clean With Passion For Now Brings the Sudsy Sexy with Leads Yoon Kyun Sang and Kim Yoo Jung

As a lifelong shoujo manga fan the poster for upcoming K-drama Clean With Passion For Now totally hits my squee spot. It’s a carbon copy of a cover from one of the manhwa chapters but the leads Yoon Kyun Sang and Kim Yoo Jung are nailing it (selling it) in the exact way I crave for a live-action adaptation. Don’t just perfunctorily act out the story, bring it to life in a way that makes it a necessary watch rather than the original drawn story being better so there is no need for a live-action version. This is a really shoujo sexy poster, what with the bubbles, the insane height/size differential of the leads, and Kim Yoo Jung’s expression of sheer exhilarating happiness at getting a peck on the cheek from her man. I don’t even know how this scene came to pass from the narrative, all I know is that I need it NOW.

    • She looks good are you serious? She's almost getting frisked by a 30 year old. This is the most miscast drama and she does not look convincing as a job seeker at all. Just a messy high school student or maybe middle school. She's too young for this drama. What a mess.

      • Does she look ugly to you? lol She definitely looks good. The role from webtoon is a 19 year old girl which she perfectly is, so Im not sure what are you salting about. lol

  • i watched the traileri didnt feel they match visually. nothing against any of them but this pairing make me uncomfortable

  • It’s not even the age gap that bothers me. It’s the fact that she’s a teenager (19) and he’s a grown ass man (31). I don’t know if the source maternal requires that he be that much older than her, but this pairing creeps me out.

    • Actually Kim Yoojung is the one playing an older character. I think the female char is in her early twenties if she's a job seeker. But if JTBC chose Yoojung as the female lead, then they should have picked a male lead closer to her age...

      • Yoo-jung is actually playing a character her age. Gil Oh-sol is fresh out of high school and seeking employment. It's Yoon Kyun-sang who's older than his character by 3 years.

      • People fresh out of high school look for jobs? More importantly people fresh out of high school get employed? What alternate universe does Korea live in? She has to be at least 22 to be eligible to work anywhere full time. She looks 15 as always.

      • @Blasphemy You do know that many people can't afford to go to college straight out of high school, do you? Many high school graduates take minimum wage jobs to save up for college and/or help their families in the meantime. And since Yoo-jung's character ends up as a cleaner, this is probably the same for her.

        In my country, many call center companies accept high school graduates as full-time employees and depending on their performance can actually earn more than college graduates.

  • I really love that they chose that cover for the poster. Just seeing it is already heart fluttering! I hope we get more teasers soon T.T Their appearance in the APAN awards gave me a hope that there's a chemistry between the two no matter how others are saying about the age and visuals

  • I’ll have to watch the drama to really decide about this pairing but I have to say, something’s off with the poster, my first thought is that it made me uncomfortable. They looked a bit more compatible in the teasers though. I’m just checking this out for Kim Yoojung and I hope it does well in ratings.

  • Ewww a 19 y. O with a 31 y. O ewwww. My baby sis is 19 and if a 31 y. O guy came to my sis like that I would have felt murderous. Who the heck casted them? Gross.

    • You seem to be looking for so some attention after no one replied to your post so here is some attention to you.

      • You seem to like it that your bias who is 19 (!) will make out with a 31 years old guy. I’m YKS’s age and my youngest sister is literally 19 and I could never ever ever ever imagine someone my age getting into relationship with a TEEN ager. It’s not like KYJ looks mature or her acting is at a level to be considered mature. Can’t be compared with Stacy Martin and Shia LaBeouf situation either because Stacy Martin is 8 years older than KYJ (and LaBeouf is same age as YKS) and Martin looked mature and her acting was natural too, not cutesy or aegyo that kdramas tend to make female leads do.

  • LOOOOOOOOOVE THE POSTER AND ITS VIBE!!! I'm super excited to watch this drama.

    Also, why are people discussing the age difference like it's the end of the world? They only have a 12 years difference, whereas Lee Byun Hun had a 20+ years difference with his last costar. If they're good actors and have good chemistry while playing their roles, it's all I care about it.

    Pft!

  • Age gap is not a problem as long as both already an adult. But KYJ is only 19 still a teenager and then pair up with a full grown man. Im not age shaming here but they look father and daughter.

    • Yeah, 31 years old dude kissing a teen girl ewww gross. Why don't they straight up pair KYJ next with Park Hae Il in Eungyo style?

      • Kim Yoo Jung is a grown woman not a little girl and she is an actress. She is playing a role. The character she is playing is 20 in the manhwa and she is 20 (Korean age). There is an age difference in the manhwa and there is an age difference in the drama. The casting makes total sense including why they cast someone who is so much taller than her when you look at the source material.

      • @OrangeyPants You maybe ok with YKS getting casted but it doesn’t erase the fact that he was miscast and that there are plenty of actors born after 1990 who are as tall and suits better with KYJ’s age. Now it looks like uncle and niece.

      • OrangePants she's barely 19 like. Grown woman is the biggest overstatement she's still a young teenager who looks much younger than her real age.

    • How can they look like father and daughter. Yoon Kyun Sang would've been 12 years old to become a father to Kim Yoo Jung.

      Think before you post.

  • Love KYJ so excited for this when it starts. Not fussed about the male leads just happy that KYJ is on a roll again. Poster set up says it all. This drama is going to be.fun; fun; fun! Soap suds and all! I wonder if it will make me want to spring clean the house after watching?
