lee min ho and kim bum
no coment for you
I like and I love you

I love YOu hahaha xD i love you Kim Sung Bim
Xxx Your girl friend

All i have to say is Kim Bum! Kim Bum! So hot! I really hope he has a relatively a lot of screen time, although there reallly is only the backstory to work with. Sad.

For some reason I kept expecting Japanese to come out.. ahhaha. I think Minho is okay as Domouji … don’t know about the others yet (much as I love Kim Bum, the clothing choices are somewhat weird for me)

Without actually evaluating the acting and the psychological stuff, this F4 is pretty close to perfect to the manga while mantaining some unique wrinkles. We know that the Korean Rui is an accomplished classical musician — probably doesn’t play the viola, but that’s the right idea. We know that the Korean Sojiro is associated with antiques and arts+crafts, which is again the right interpretation of Sojiro. The Korean Akira looks vaguely associated with a seedy organization, again spot on. And Korean Doumyouji’s crib is FRIGGING AMAZING.

The other thing is, you can also pick up the Goong/Goong S vibes in the way they do the F4 entrance at school. I don’t love it; but it’s also much truer to the bling bling world that she’d be surrounded in. The J-drama HanaDan made the school into a kind of F4 Castle, and Meteor Gardne made school look like the Frat House from Hell.

“Goo Hye-sun’s acting is just not doing it for me. I was totally expecting more from her as Makino Tsukushi. I don’t know if it’s because of overacting or simply because they’re pushing for the cute image a bit too far, but it’s just not rubbing me in the right ways. Hopefully, I will change my mind later on.”

I’m totally withholding judgement since I’ve already expressed that she looked a little “noona-ish” in the posters. GHS’s a good actress (see King and I), and she’s still good at making cartoony faces, true to her uljjang past. But they look good together. Lee Pil Mo reminds me of a cross between 80s Andrew McCarthy and 80s James Spader.

thanks for the pics though.^^

From the 7-minute video, Lee Min-ho’s acting from what I’ve seen has put me at ease. He seems capable, and he certainly looks the part of Tsukasa.

Kim Hyun-joong’s acting, although I can see him putting in all the effort he’s got, is slightly still not up to par. It’s getting there, and he knows what Rui’s supposed to be like, but something is lacking in his acting. I still have hope that things will get better as the episodes begin airing because the 7-minute trailer didn’t show too much of his lines.

Goo Hye-sun’s acting is just not doing it for me. I was totally expecting more from her as Makino Tsukushi. I don’t know if it’s because of overacting or simply because they’re pushing for the cute image a bit too far, but it’s just not rubbing me in the right ways. Hopefully, I will change my mind later on.

Overall though, the production is mindblowingly amazing. Even if there is a little lack of acting, I’m sure everything else about the series will overcompensate for it since it isn’t like the acting is horrendous (flashes of Dennis Oh come to mind!).

I seriously cannot wait for this, especially after so many disastrous happenings with East of Eden.

So I am happy to see BBF press conference and seeing HyeSun looking so pretty. I actually love that dress on her (initially I hate the green flower but the more I look at it, the more I like it, very Sarah Jessica Parker. She should have worn this dress for the SCW’s press conference) and her hair really suits her, she looked damn cute. And her smiley, happy face and that she has a good rapport with MinHo……I am so looking forward to seeing BBF.

Quick commentary:

1) OMG it’s like the last 3 years of GHS’s career has never happened. She brought back Nonstop 5.

2) It looks like they’re doing a more literal adaptation of the manga (like Meteor Garden.) Each of the characters is pretty close to the manga.

3) OMG, this is one frigging expensive looking show. Dude, THIS Doumyouji’s mansion is 3x larger than the original.

sorry but really think they can’t compete to the japanese version at all …

i hope there will have some improvement when the drama comes out.. let’s wait and see…
