Junho and Lee Se Young Find Subtle Romantic Connection in New Posters for MBC Sageuk The Red Sleeve Cuff
Sageuk romances are by nature restrained and less is said/done is more presentation due to the characters living in an historical era of emphasis on etiquette and form. The upcoming MBC drama The Red Sleeve Cuff seems to be taking that to the extreme, it’s sooooooo implied that the new poster above seems to have court lady Lee Se Young having a ghostly rather than romantic connection with Junho‘s King. I’m amused more than anything, this seems like a total slow burn and that’s fine since there are so many other sageuks taking a more direct romantic approach. The poster above shows that the two leads are close but kept apart by a mere window and the other poster below shows only their hands reaching for each other but not yet touching. I think the drama will really appeal to the viewers who have the patience for a slow burn romance and a traditional palace story.

will it be tragic?
So 2pm boys both chose sageuk, Junho with the serious and Taec with the comedy. Both playing their forte. Gonna be interesting which one appeal more to the viewers. Best luck boys!
Idols are invaded sageuks : The King’s Affection with Rowoon, Red Sleeves with Junho, Inspector Jo with Taecyeon and When Flowers Bloom, I Think of the Moon with Hyeri.
I think Juno has surpassed the ‘idol’ actor title though. He is old generation kpop and seems to have better strengths in acting than singing. He is a very good actor especially in the good manager and just between lovers.
I disagree because he is a very accomplished musician and performer. He’s got over 100 compositions listed with the Korean Music Copyright Association and he sells out his solo tours.
That’s not to say he is worse at acting. He’s just the kind of person who’s good at everything, mainly because he works very hard.
