Forget Partner, let’s look at Triple
(From top left, going clockwise, they are: Lee Hana, Yoon Kye-sang, Kim Hee, Lee Seon-kyun, Min Hyo-rin, and Lee Jung-jae.)
I don’t have much to add on top of what I’ve already said about Triple, other than that it has new posters out. The one above and the one directly below are almost exactly the same — I thought they were identical, at first — and show the six main characters and give us our first idea of how some will pair off. (Still not sure how lead character Min Hyo-rin will be treated, or how her ice-skating character relates to the ad executives.)
(Based on the order of the cast list, I’m going to guess that Lee Jung-jae takes the lead and Yoon Kye-sang, sigh, takes a backseat.)
Drama premieres on MBC on June 10.
(The last guy is young actor Song Joong-ki, btw. He’s also in Ogamdo.)

the drama looks downright FUN. im excited
the pictures make the drama look bright and sunny. i like kim hee’s blue boots.
Ensemble casts can be tough to deal with, whether it is a movie or a drama. Do you spread out the story lines? How to make everybody happy with the amount of scenes and lines?
And, often times, in large group scenes, it feels like characters are just waiting around in the scene, waiting patiently to say their line, then after they say their line, and they go back to being quiet again. Still, I note Lee Yoon-jung might be the saving grace, as she can skillfully neutralize possible negatives associated with large casts, and we’ll probably see inter-woven story lines that move people around in more intimate scenes of 2-3 ppl max.
The workup for Triple has been pretty big. I wonder what kind of pressure the actors are facing, now that they know what they are going up against, and especially for Min Hyo Rin, who has been working so hard to be credible. Sort of wish that the publicity had been more low key, but given Kim Yeon Ah’s (김연아) World Championship and world record, there’s no backing away now…
That IS one unique poster. Totally has that manga-ish feel to it..
I wonder if Lee Jung Jae’s character’s funny? I would love to see him work his comedic skills on screen again. The last time I’ve seen him in a comical role was in Oh Brothers.. and he just blew me away in that movie!
So Sarah, Lee Jung Jae or Yoon Kye Sang? =P
Min Hyo Rin plays Lee Jung Jae’s stepsister. The two were orphaned when she was 13 – her mother and his father died in a car accident, I believe. The preview’s up too – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6i3Y8k-CYrA&feature=channel_page.
I LOVE when Yoon Kye-Sang smiles..i’m glad to see him again in another project because i really enjoyed him in Who Are You? i was just re-watching the drama last week and every time i see him i can’t help but SMILE ^__^ too..i don’t care if he gets the backseat in this drama because to see him is worth it and even if he doesn’t get the girl in the end it’s ok too..
Min Hyo Rin plays Lee Jung Jae’s stepsister!
The casting looks amazing!
awesome peopleeee
“So Sarah, Lee Jung Jae or Yoon Kye Sang? =P “
Yoon Kye-sang! No, Lee Jung-jae! Yoon Kye-sang! Lee Jung-jae! Kang Ji-hwan! Um, all of them smooshed together?
“I LOVE when Yoon Kye-Sang smiles… i was just re-watching the drama last week and every time i see him i can’t help but SMILE “
totally.
this is my absolute favorite Yoon Kye-sang smile from Who Are You:
this seems fun!
from watching the preview, it seems the OST will be awesome like Coffee Prince…yay!
cant wait! i hope it doesnt disappoint ^^
So, if Lee Hana gets paired with Yoon Kye Sang….
then your Lee Jung Jae is safe, Sarah.
That just leaves Samsooki to fight a 1) losing, 2) utterly futile battle against the rest of us for Kang Ji Hwan.
This looks like it will be a lot of fun! Seriously, it seems like this year is turning out well for interesting dramas!
Oh man oh man oh man, the suspense is killing meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~
They all look like they’re having a ton of fun off-screen, too. This is going to be adorable. :3
aw.. i was hoping that yoon kye sang would be the lead too
i love him so much in she is 19 an in who are you, one of my favorite actors,..
i dont know that lee jung jae guy.. is he good?
haven’t seen him in anything yet..
i dont care about the girls but to have yoon kye sang and lee sun gyun in one drama is more than enough to make me watch this.. cant wait..yay!
wee! i’m really excited for this!
i just wished Kang Ji Hwan was still in the cast though :p
but it’s alright
Song Joong-ki… i’m keeping my eyes open for this fresh eye candy. hihi.
and i so love yoon kye sang’s chinky eyes when he smiles!
and his cheeks too! so cute…
@ hjkomo,
That’s it, I’ve had it! I’ve been keeping mum about this since I saw the last open thread but you have drawn me out of my lurker status. Let me put it this way. I have never questioned Samsooki’s Binniesexuality. I could totally relate to that being also a man. BUT, that’s as long he doesn’t touch my Kang Ji Hwan! Call it Hwanniesexuality. I have seen Kang Ji Hwan take on different roles, from drama, action and comedy and he always seem to fit the role. I think versatile is the word I’m looking for here. And he’s such a funny guy with a confident swagger and oozing charisma. This is one guy you would love to have soju drinks with at those street tent boozers(don’t know what they’re called in Korean) and have endless stories to share with, or have a singsong together at a noreabang. I bet he’d be such a riot to hang out with. Has anyone seen him show off his dancing skills in Sangsang Plus when they were plugging Capital Scandal? That was so hilarious, the other guys were rolling with laughter!
I will never get jealous and would happily share Kang Ji Hwan with you and the other ladies. But not with another man! So please, do not encourage Samsooki.
@ Samsooki
I forbid you to watch Capital Scandal. I’d allow you Hong Gil Dong but that’s it. You hear?
JB’s post is something out of Chinatown. Tortured, contradictory and honest.
I’ll be rooting for the backseat driver though. This will be the third time I’ve rooted for the 2nd lead.
Yay! Triple! Yay! But 6 main leads? Wow.
And song jung-ki?! loved him so much in my precious you. sigh. this must be an eye-candy paradise.
Must. Bear. With. Patience. Till. I. Graduate. Must.
*throw hands in the air
BTW, I thought lee jung jae’s character was playing a speed skater?
Lee Jung Jae seems a bit.. old to be paired off with one of the girls… >__>
Hmm I just hope there will lots of scenes for Yoon Kye Sang and Lee Sun Gyun XD
Seems like there will a lot of good drama the second half of 09. What to watch…
@ hanjanman
ROFL!!!
Versatile, he certainly is.
And who else could pull off that ajumma pama? (and long before the BOF craze)
Thank you for coming out of lurker status.
But let me make things clear:
1) I was not encouraging Samsooki. In fact, I was doing my best to discourage him.
There’s no point in him diving into a fight where he’ll be ripped to shreds…that’s right…SHREDS.
2) @Samsooki – take notes. Now, here’s a man who knows how to get what he wants without antagonizing the worst foe imaginable. {insert appropriate Korean idiom here…but I can’t think of any at the moment}
Come on, you’re married. You should’ve learned by now who wins these fights.
It’s no contest!
Back to topic – Song Joong-ki’s yummy.
Wait, so it’s Lee Jungjae/Min Hyorin pairing? Err, that’s a bit…
lol. i was rofling hard at your comment. anyway, the cast look downright smexy. the guys especially. actually ONLY the guys.
JB. – whisper, whisper – secret, Lee Jung Jae is still a black agent, come back to infiltrate the international world of Ice Skaters – his lady, Choi Ji Woo’s heart wavered from the long wait, and is now with Lee Jin Wook. So brush up and polish your ice steps, your in with a chance…….ROFL
Just could not resist…..Looking forward to Jung Jae, sprinting about again.
Samsookie/Binnie now hanjanman/Hwannie who’s next ????
Applause for our guys ^^.
I wonder if Jung Il Woo still take the leading role..
Too bad, he gave up his role in Triple for his role in Return of Iljimae..
Jung Jae and Hyo Rin? There will be another ahjussi and young girl pairing..
If it happens, then there is no difference with its previous drama; Cinderella Man..
Lee Jung Jae! *squeals* Love it when he smiles. Not quite… err… understanding the mushroom-like hairstyle, but still, it’s been a while since I saw him in a drama. Hopefully this will be good!
Thanks Javabeans.. been waiting for the update of Triple. Love all the actors in this drama, but still crossing my finger on the story lines.. hopefully this will be a good one..
@jb I totally agree about YKS! I was just re-watching that very ep the other day!
I truly can’t wait for this show…hurry the heck up already!
omo! isnt the seventh image a picture of the coffee prince director?? waao
Yoon Kye Sang, I’ll watch this for Yoon Kye Sang!
Now we’re discussing Kang Ji Hwan in the Triple thread…lolz… your fault Sarah!
Okay, Lee Jung Jae paired up with Min Hyo Rin? Ermm…that’s a bit of a mismatch for me. I have nothing against MHR, well except that she’s a TOTAL NEWBIE.. but I’m not quite for the step brother falling for step-sister kinda storyline. And he’s too old for her…. it’s like KSW and Yoona all over again. Okay, it’s me being really jealous because she gets to be with my Lee Jung Jaeeee….urhh…<_<
@16 mojadara
Yes, Lee Jung Jae’s a great actor. But he’s kinda out of the drama scene for quite some time? (Well does Air City count?) He can play serious and comedy without having to try… just like Kang Ji Hwan?
@17 hanjanman
“Has anyone seen him show off his dancing skills in Sangsang Plus when they were plugging Capital Scandal? ”
Me me me!! That totally got me rolling on the floor man. I rewatched it like SO SO MANY TIMES!
I totally thought he was gonna do the signature swing he did in CS, but I never never expected to see him create his own “BOUNCING” dance…lolz..
===
And why the heck is nobody talking about “The Voice”?
We totally need Thundie or Dahee here…
Sorry for going OT – but someone please direct me to the SangSangPlus – CS dance!
As for The Voice – the squealing shall commence as soon as he’s heard….right now, we’re just giving him a hiatus because he’s newly married.
i always think The Voice looks better with glasses.
Forget flower boys, these men are charismatic and just my type.
I never really like flower boys anyway. hahahaha~~
Seems like everyone is having fun and i’m anticipating Lee Hana in this, i hope she ends up with any one of the guys.
It’s hard to choose between these 3 wonderful guys, i got a small crush on LJJ in air city even though i didn’t finish that drama….
yeah i agree with the other comments. the pictures make the drama look so funn, i’m like excited to watch it already. FOR ALL THAT LSG MAGIC! hehe the donut pic. oh priceless.
MY GAAAAAWWWWWDDD.
Somebody wipe the drool from my work desk.
(I think I should stop smiling at my screen like a total idiot because my coworker is looking at me weird. And knowing my boss, he’s lurking somewhere! Yikes!)
*Sorry for going OT – but someone please direct me to the SangSangPlus – CS dance!
*
Yes, please please??
The posters look fun, but I’m not so interested with this anymore because no Kang Ji Hwan…and now I’m more looking forward for Partners.
@ hjkomo, djes and ripgal(just in case you needed to see it one more time)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1b2PLuoMCE
The Kang Ji Hwan Bounce dance. Enjoy!
I’m waiting “Triple” because of… Yoon Kye-sang. I love his smile that make me feel natural and comfortable. I have been waiting his new project since “Who are you?”. But until now, I have no lots of info. about characters. I can only see the clear couple Kim Hee, Lee Seon-kyun, but how about Lee Hana, Yoon Kye-sang, Min Hyo-rin, and Lee Jung-jae? I have no doubt about Lee Jung-jae’s acting comedy, but I think his face is a bit old to pair with Min Hyo-rin (although he’s “just” 10-year older than Min Hyo-rin. hehe). So the rest of them are Lee Hana, Yoon Kye-sang and Lee Jung-jae. I don’t want to see the triangle love because I don’t want to see my love “Kye-sang” to suffer misery on screen.
I think MBC tries to keep the script in secret to attract the audiences.
Yoon Kye-sang is looking a little skinny these days. I love his smile. He had me from the days of My sister-in-law is 19. I’m so excited about this drama. Can’t wait!
@ hanjanman
Thanks so for the link – brilliant.
Seen this one guys -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmwMpr6IxmI&feature=related
I go with new groom rest period…..lol
hanjanman, thank you for the link… i was laughing so hard when he bounce…
yes, KJH why did you leave…. TT
but there still ‘the-newly-wed-voice’ and yoon kye sang, i wouldn’t miss it…
and JB, thank you for Yoon Kye Sang smiling pic… he looked like a child when he smile like that…
Yoon Kye-Sang is just amazing. I feel the need to watch “Who are you?” again for the billionth time now
i feel like you guys are all mistaken and we really really got off on the wrong foot.
Let me start over.
First, Kang Ji Hwan and I have a connection. I felt it when I was watching Hong Gil Dong, ep 4, and I was like, wow, Hong Gil Dong and I have a connection. It was destiny, it was oon-myung, and I had no idea it was going to happen. As we all know, you cannot fight oon-myung.
Second, there is no fight to be had here, since Kang Ji Hwan and I have a connection. But in the interest of fair play (ala My Love Patzzi, et al.) we should just let JB choose, since JB has clearly chosen YKS and not KJW.
My proposal is that we should all write a nerdy haiku about KJW and then let JB decide the winner, making note that this is still a Triple thread, not a KJW thread. My nerdy haiku entry:
Kang Ji Hwan (mine!), was
Ensemble casting why you
Drop’d out of Triple?
*clap* *applause* *woot* Thank you, no you are too kind. I am not really a poet, but thank you. My stable of guys now include Binnie and Kang Ji Hwan. You guys can all look but don’t touch.
Wheeee what a delightful poster! So so cute! With so many cuties too! Can’t wait for Triple!!!
Only thing is – why does Lee Jung Jae have a ‘Spock-ish’ haircut? While Spock was very smouldering smexy in latest ‘Star Trek’ – why oh why have this cut on Lee Jung Jae? It’s not flattering in the stills. (I’ll still watch him of course!) But it’s like LJJ and his stylist both nodded off while stylist was cutting it. Regardless LJJ is still hot hot hot.
Ok am trying to keep my promise from last open thread to keep on topic in a thread……but sorry Javabeans have to break it on mention of Kang Ji Hwan (am sure you understand right?) Perhaps we should have an open thread just on KJK? hehehe
@11 et al hjkomo
Totally agree – Samsooki could/would not win against KJH lionesses! It would get very ugly, very quickly. (Not that I want Samsooki hurt. Hell no! Samsooki has great taste to love of Binnie, appreciates Hwannie and his comments in this blogs are classics for crying out loud! How about we convince him to share/play nice in re: KJH?)
Ajumma pama + sunnies in a fusion sageuk. Only Kang Ji Hwan could pull it off.
@ hanjanman
Glad you are no longer a lurker! Wow you are willing to share KJH!? Nice! KJH really is versatile, smexy and adorkable! He seems to enjoy himself, while coming off sometimes as being slightly shy? Whatever it is – I’ld hang out with him anytime anyplace :p Have you seen him in Rough Cut with So Ji Sub? Very nice. Now waiting for Civil Servant #7.
And be still my fangirly heart – thanks for sharing the Bounce Dance. So adorkable – reminds me to check out the Lotte CF again…for the zillionth time.
Honestly Hwanniesexuality and Binniesexuality can co-exisit! Different yes, yet both supernova hot!
@ 34 c_gunawan541
Triple seems to stand for ‘Men Men Men’ Makes one think ‘F4 who?’ hehe
@ 41 B.B
Thanks – what a riot!
What is the song that KJK attempts to sing? Is it the song he sang on the Fireworks OST or something else?
(Honestly this blog is more effective than all the cold/flu pills I’ve been popping today. Feel much better already! Thanks Dramabeans gang!)
@ Samsooki
Didn’t I just say that you keep off Kang Ji Hwan??? Why couldn’t you just be a one man, well, man and stick to Hyun Bin? However, in the spirit of fair play, here is my haiku:
Lee Jung Jae may take
Your place in Triple but not
My heart, Ji Hwan ssi.
By the way, your oonmyung claim is dubious. He sent me a sign(a wink) at the Lotte duty free mv.
@ 44 Samsooki.
OK, here goes haiku trial, LAUGH later guys…..
Absent ! Kang Ji Hwan,
Triple, how to enjoy fear I
men, a trio remain.
Howz zat Samsooki.
@45 bspanda
But KJH and I have a connection! Doesn’t this TOTALLY remind you of the k-drama mitchin girls (crazy girls) who will not let go their man even though KJH and I have a connection? I can name like a half-dozen dramas where the mitchin girls did not let go even though their “man” had a connection with someone else. It’s not love!
It’s like you guys didn’t learn a thing by watching k-dramas. The crazy girls never win in the end!
@46 hanjanman
Wow….. great haiku, Hanjanman! It’s like you captured the essence of your futile and unrequited love for KJH that is the backbone of most k-dramas.
*applause*. In all sincerity, that should be good enough for tied for 2nd place in the KJH contest, which earns you a free cellphone voicemail message brought to you by my Kang Ji Hwan.
@47, B.B.
I had no idea we had so many poets amongst us!
Your poem has a lot of depth and pathos… I feel almost sad (for you). I think you have the essence of what it means to be without Kang Ji Hwan, which is good foreshadowing because Kang Ji Hwan will soon be mine after I finish Hong Gil Dong and Capital Scandal.
Just when i said this blog was making me feel better….
SAMSOOKI!!!!
I post, a nanosecond after you, to read this
‘Kang Ji Hwan and I have a connection’
What are you trying to do? KIll me when I’m already sick!!!!! As well as throw down a haiku challenge, when I have no idea what that is? Mean mean meanie….*sobs*
What was it you said about steak and blue? Kicking self for mentioning questioning your Binniesexuality if you not like KJH! So feel like I should not have shared now!
psst hjkomo I think I take back what I said – going for blood!
@ hanjanman
Can you please help defend KJH from Samsooki?
(BTW sorry that wink was for me – I claimed it weeks ago. But we can still be friends right? hehe)
That wink from the end of the Lotte CF music video? At about the 2:57 mark? That wink was from Kang Ji Hwan????!!! Oh my. I didn’t think he was winking at me, but now that I go back and play that MV again, he WAS winking at me.
My new haiku, based on Lotte Duty Free:
So I’m loving you
And Triple is missing you
But Mine! wink’d at me…
*applause*
Before I go(back to reality) I just want to leave some replies to those who have thrown messages my way.
@B.B. and bbm
Glad to share that video with you. It was meant to be a Swing demonstration that turned into something else, the bounce. I still laugh every time I see it.
@bspanda
No, I haven’t seen Rough Cut yet. I would love to though. Didn’t know it was already available outside Korea. Is it already online?
I’ll try not to be too much of a lurker from now on and leave comments from time to time. I tried to join in the open thread discussions but reading the hundred plus comments alone already takes too much time and its so hard to find who left what comment after reading the whole lot. But I promise I will try.
@Samsooki
Your last comment here had me in stitches man! Love reading all your comments in this blog actually. But I refuse to accept 2nd place for my haiku! Let’s have JB decide.
See you guys in eight hours time!
Samsooki
@48 tsk tsk tsk – this is where you got it all wrong! You see KJH AND I HAVE the connection – you are the one that is delusional and you THINK you have the connection.
And it’s just KJH has not found a way to tell it to you gently, to minimise your hurt, with him being sensitive and all. But it’s coming Samsooki!
However I can perhaps put your delusion down to Binniesexuality withdrawal! Don’t worry Binnie is coming back soon with ‘Friends’ ok?
@50 Once again – delusional! Geez Samsooki have you been taking my cold and flu meds? Wink was for ME!
BTW Wasn’t it ‘Soul Eye Wubbing Ewwww’? LOL – try making a haiku out of that!
(can you enlighten me on what a haiku is? ta!)
(once again apologies to JB and the other readers – but this is mad, but so fun LOL)
OK guys problem solved – for Samsooki, bspanda, and hanjanman
The Wink –
Triple blow, Oh heart ache
wink’d neither left nor right, Hail !
Reporter yonder…..
LOL, you guys! *reads all the comments and grins madly*
Aww, come on, why can’t Yoon Kye Sang be th lead? Ok, ok, must.not.be.greedy. I cannot wait for this drama!
Anyway, re: the posters. I totally played the spot-the-difference game. *facepalm*
@JB.
*huggles* Definately, all of them smooshed together! *vbg*
@ bspanda.
Opps, missed the edit time.
Haiku – a 17-syllable verse form consisting of three metrical units of 5, 7, and 5 syllables.
Hope this helps…..join the fun.
I’m SOOO excited! The cast looks fun!
I think its good KJH is not in triple. First of all I don’t think the women (nevermind the men!) on this blog can take it. If just the mere possibility of KJH being in Triple is causing haikus to flow left and right and all this “mine, mine, mine” behavior what kind of a riot would KJH actually being in the series do to us all? Savages thats what.
Also where would my beloved YKS be in all this (lost in the shuffle like yesterday’s cold rice?), nevermind the voice. Just consider yourselves all lucky this happened. I frankly don’t think you guys can take the sexiness.
Hey Lee Jung Jae, Spock called and he wants his hair style back.
BB
Thanks for that!
Have to give it a miss (for now), as flu is suddenly shifted gears and absolutely pounding my head (probably cause i should be snoozing not surfing right now! LOL) Hopefully can join in the fun soon.
nycgirl
Nothing wrong with cold rice (YKS) either hehe Variety is spice of life right? Good to see I was not the only one that saw Spock in LJJ’s hair!
i love Yoon Kye-sang. Can’t wait to see him act again… i hope this is as fun as his last drama…
Atleast OST wise this will be the drama of the year, but am i the inly one who thinks this drama lacks eye candy? Especially after CP?:(
Tho yeah really looking forward to this one, hopefully its good.
My only hope is that YKS will have bigger part than how it looks so far. The main reason I’m excited about this drama is YKS and Lee Yunjung combination. I like the poster by the way.
@ KOK
“Atleast OST wise this will be the drama of the year, but am i the inly one who thinks this drama lacks eye candy? Especially after CP?:(”
Wha??? Careful, you’re headed into dangerous territory…
@ Samsooki
I see you have not learned your lesson! Your egocentrism is worse than my students….hohnnayadegekkun!
All right. The right-side of my brain is severely lacking (and I couldn’t think of one which incorporated Triple)….but here it goes –
You. Heart of our pride.
Smexy, adorkable, YOU.
Bounce me anytime!
@57, nycgrl
LOL! Soooo funny.
In the photos that look identical, only Lee Hana’s and Min Hyo Rin’s hands are different -_-
But Triple is looking good, it seems funny and light ^^ (it would be sad if this was a serious sports drama) I wonder how Min Hyo Ri will act (or skate….)
@62 hjkomo –
Sigh. Nycgrl is right. If Kang Ji Hwan stayed in Triple, all y’all heads might explode. LOL. I am reminded of Kim Seo Hyun (played by Park Si Yeon) of My Girl, or Yoon Soo Jin (ably played by Lee Bo Young), or even Yoo Hee-jin (slightly over-played by Jung Ryu Won)… and Hanjaman reminds me of the relentless Mr. Byun (forcefully and thoughtfully played by Uhm Tae Woong) in DGCH… (you guys should all 포기해…)
@64, biscuit,
(Pssssst! I think Yoon Kye Sang’s arm is also different in the bottom photo, but I can’t say it too loudly because if JB hears that I looked at YKS, then who knows what will happen. Don’t tell anyone I looked at YKS!)
When Isaw the PD I couldn’t help but remember her nickname in CP.
xD
LOLOLOL
I just had to say this is probably the funniest thread I have EVER read ANYWHERE! Totally made my day 
This thread definitely made my day
And the haikus are mad funny! I think nycgirl was right…if KJH was in Triple, there would be even more “MINE, MINE, MINE” going on.
LOL.
Javabeans, please do not mad with those ’slightly’ off topic comments.
These are hilarious and fun!
You, and your awesome commentators gang always make my day.
)
( and see at this perspective, better have THESE kind of commentators than get comments like : FIRST, SECOND, He’s so hot, xxx <3, or other stupid pointless comments, right?
I <3 Lee Seon-kyun and Lee Hana!! I’ll watch it just for them! Also, does anyone know if the woman in the 6th picture (with the huge smile) is the director of Coffee Prince? It looks a lot like her
…. I thought samsooki is a guy? O.o I remembered, if correctly, of you mentioning your wife once…
+_+”
That aside, I don’t really know the storyline of triple but seeing the action that I like (YKS) I will give it a try!
I’m looking forward to this for a number of reasons…
Firstly, Yoon Kye-sang… I loved his performances in Who Are you, Crazy For You (he’s proven his dramatic prowess here, made me cry buckets) and She is 19. He could move from comedy to drama so smoothly as in Who Are You.
Secondly, the director of Coffee Prince, and
Thirdly, The Voice
And I say Amen! to those who love YKS’s smile; even the female lead in Crazy For You acknowledged his captivating smile in her dialogue.
I sure hope javabeans will recap this.
Cheers!
Absolutely yoon kye sang is a superb actor , he proves to all the viewers that he is good in all kinds of role.Even drama and comedy !!! well if he is not the lead
actor in triple i’m still patronizing his all movies. thanks jb … i’m always updating your website…
@71 popcorn –
“…. I thought samsooki is a guy? O.o I remembered, if correctly, of you mentioning your wife once…”
I am a guy!
And binniesexuality is not against nature! And hwanniesexuality is also okay, so long as there is a connection there!
All kidding aside, I am sort of in the midst of my own awakening, as I overdose on Korean dramas and explore the interesting and cool aspects of being a Korean guy, after years and years of being the model Korean-american 2nd gen robot, and being directionless in terms of having suitable archetypes for issues surrounding what it means to be a korean-american (or an asian american) male.
Not too long ago, I watched MNIKSS (my first drama) and I was shocked to see that Binnie was cool and interesting and good looking, not at all what I had thought korean guys would be like. Watching korean actors do their thing in k-dramas has really given me a whole new world to explore, and of course, I have started to develop “attachments” to certain of these actors.
For example, even though I haven’t found an opportunity to say it yet, I’ve stored away Binnie phrases like, “ha ji mal-la-myun… ha ji ma!” (”If I tell you not to do it, then just don’t do it!” – MNIKSS Episode 7). LOL. And, finding out that Kang Ji Hwan and I have a spiritual connection was another shock (was it fate?), and that has led to terroritorial battles between confused dramabeans souls who think that KJH belongs to them, when it’s clearly not true.
I shudder to think of what will happen once we start to watch Triple. Hopefully, there won’t be any connection to be made between me and YKS, and then we can avoid all unnecessary bloodshed on dramabeans.
Delusional. He,
that is. Truly enters world
of Korean males.
buahaha….not bad, I must say…in the pre-coffee hours of the morning
@75 hjkomo
Wow, that WAS good! Two birds, one stone, all in a haiku. Most impressive.
H.J.Komo is
like Mister Byun of Choon Hyang…
Should lern2 포기…
My own mixing bowl of texting slang, korean drama knowledge, korean, and haiku.
Hehe. Take that!
@samsooki…
Hahah…after all that explanation I still don’t understand. lol
Anyway, let me give it a try for haiku. I am not very good but will see.
Korean guys are
on show too good to be true.
In life, I find none.
p.s. I always thought haikus are mainly written about nature…lol

You are right, haikus are generally about nature. I was being silly.
It is a shame that your experience with Korean guys has been less than great (in my own experience, I have to agree with your haiku as well, in that most (but not all!) kor-american guys that I’ve met seem to be kind of messed up too, and I am included in that group). I’d like to tell you that we get better with age, but I’ve not seen it for the most part. There are a lot of reasons (excuses, really) why this is, but this topic is better served on an open thread Friday.
Am I the only one that noticed someone draw a moustache on Kim Hee’s picture?
i like his smile..so sweet…:)
