Kim Byul, Jang Geun Seok — and baby makes three
Doll-faced actress Kim Byul (of the uncommonly good sports drama Taereung National Village, and Clazziquai’s “Sweety” music video opposite Lee Junki) has been cast opposite Jang Geun Seok (of the current fusion sageuk Hong Gil Dong — but if you spend any time on this site you already know that, lol) in a new movie, Baby and I. She was also in the teen sex farce Dasepo Naughty Girls, which I actually thought was quite interesting on several levels (although as a film narrative I think it ultimately falls short).
In Baby and Me, the 18-year-old character played by Jang Geun Seok has his life turned upside-down by sudden fatherhood. Kim Byul plays a quirky girl who, coincidentally, shares her name with her character in the film, which initially was a source of surprise for both actor and producers — she’d received the script to audition for the part and was startled at seeing the name. A source from the production team explains: “It isn’t only the name that’s similar, but in every aspect she’s like the film character, as though she’d come straight out of the movie.”
The film is set to start filming at the end of March.

“Juno” anyone?
Haha yea, except Michael Cera didnt really have a big role in Juno, not as much as Jang Geun Seok will i expect.
And when i first saw the pictures i thought “why does Jang Geun Seok’s head look so small?” but i dunno, maybe the buzz cut just doesnt work for him. (How old is that pic anyway?)
Kim Byul also looks strangely pale lol.
huh, like juno has any right to accuse anyone else of copying. esp a korean movie.
Oh, yay! It’ll be nice to see Kim Byeol again. She was absolutely amazing in Taereung National Village. And I think Jang Geun Seok’s actually a pretty decent actor, so I’m happy.
Ah, Kim Byul! I absolutely adored her in Taereung National Village; she was so awesome. My only regret about TNV (it’s perfect in everything else) is that Kim Byul did not have as many scenes as Choi Jung Yoon. Although I watched TNV for Lee Minki, by the end of the drama, I loved (and missed) Kim Byul’s character the most. The music video that she did with Minki last year (the name of the MV escapes me now) was really good too. There’s a very natural air about her acting.
I don’t mind Jang Geun Seok, perhaps because I’ve only seen the first three episodes of HGD and don’t have enough reasons to want to kill him (unlike sarah, LOL).
this reminds me of Jenny Juno (the korean movie)…and, ok, also Juno (the american one)..
they make a cute couple though. it should be interesting to see him as a teenage dad XD
Jenny Juno leads to Juno (American) leads to Baby and Me.
Can we please stop the whole teenage baby incident angst?
There’s only a limited number of storylines that can come out of that.
Still, watching out for the movie. (:
& ^ yes, JGS’s head… is obscenely small.
“Byul, Jang Geun Seok — and baby makes three”
OMG! When I first read the title, all sorts of LOUD, CRAZY thoughts entered my head…..and then I read the rest of the post. Whew! Stop scaring me like that, Sarah! I’m running on little enough sleep as it is!
JGS’s character in HGD is getting interesting, btw.
Patiently waiting for Ep.15 recap….
Not familiar with neither, but its interesting enough. I’ll be looking forward to it…
Guys….for the record, American Juno DIDN’T rip-off the Korean movie (also named Juno, I believe.) As Juno is the Goddess of Fertility, so I find it possible that it’s just a coincidence both happens to go around pregnant women. I’ve watched the movies, and I don’t think they’re that similar. Sure, pregnant teens. ANY other similarities? Now, if it was a COMPLETE rip-off, then I’d say so. But to me, it didn’t seem like it.
I guess this is the time when movies about pregnant teens are hitting in….*sighs* Another fad, only I don’t like this one.
Wonder if Jang Geun Seok can pull it off…
haa, i read the title and i though he got her pregnant in real life… scared me!
helll>>>>>>>>>>>>>o
his soo cute i really love him>>>>>>>>>> jowek!
Love me in the Springtime, when all is green and new,
Love me in the Summer, when the sky is oh so blue,
Love me in the Autumn, when the leaves are turning brown,
Love me in the Winter, when the snow is falling down.
Love me when I’m happy, and even when I’m sad,
Love me when I’m good, or when I’m oh so bad,
Love me when I’m pretty, or if my face is plain,
Love me when I’m feeling good, or when I’m feeling pain.
Love me always darlin’, in the rain or shining sun,
Love me always darlin’, after all is said and done,
Love me always darlin’, until all our life is through,
Love me always darlin’, for I’ll be lovin’ you!
