High School Contrasting with Adulthood New Posters and Preview for jTBC Drama More Than Friends with Ong Seung Woo and Shin Ye Eun
Filming was halted on the production of jTBC drama More Than Friends (Number of Cases) so it’s not clear yet if the drama will premiere next Friday as it takes over the time slot from Graceful Friends. Staring Ong Seung Woo and Shin Ye Eun, the drama feels like a slighter younger version of those dramas where the male leads and female leads are friends for like two decades and finally decide to give a romantic angle a try. Here it appears the leads and their friends (and maybe additional couples) let about ten years lapse between high school and adulthood before changing the dynamics. The drama released two new posters and one new teaser this week, the posters juxtapose high school versus adult versions of the two leads opposite each other, thankfully it’s not weird or skeevy and makes me root for them even more to get on that train however late!
Preview for More Than Friends:
I’m tiring of the story where the FL has a crush for years on a boy and when she could be interesting by someone else, he starts to see her…
It’s why I loved EY, the FL was smarter!
I find it relatable though. Where the timing was never right- and then you’ve been friends so long that you hesitate to cross a line.
What’s going to bug me is if she never dated and just pined for 10 years as a pure chaste virgin. I see that a lot in Chinese dramas. Beautiful charming and successful leads (both genders) who are 28 but never dated or kissed anyone. That earns an eye roll and snort every time.
