I’m not going to miss Two Weeks but gosh darn it I’m going to celebrate its well-deserved accomplishment before attention moves on to the next shiny drama in the pipeline. The cast of Two Weeks held a viewing party as a group and with audience members for the final episode, and there are tons of pictures to share that will bring a smile to your face. First up is the heart and soul of this drama – Lee Jun Ki’s Jang Tae San and his love for newly discovered daughter Seo Soo Jin played by Lee Chae Mi, who isn’t just precious but also a fantastic child actor.

It was also nice to see some of actors who play deceased but important characters in the drama make an appearance at the party, a nice remembrance that their senseless death in the story left an impression if I actually recognized them. Jun Ki must be diving right back into his music career because his hair is blond so quickly after filming wrapped. He’s such an effortless chameleon, one of the few K-ent pop stars who can pull off any out-there look and make it feel fun. Continue reading
