Official posters for Cinderella’s Sister
March 21st, 2010 // by javabeans
A set of two posters are out for Cinderella’s Sister (although, if you’ve been following the recent updates, the images are nothing new given the constant slew of news about this drama).
The above features the four leads Moon Geun-young, Chun Jung-myung, Seo Woo, and Ok Taecyeon — and who else thought for a second that Seo Woo was Honey Lee?
The second poster (immediately below) is a familiar image of Moon as the rebellious stepsister character. The other stills below that are recently released photos that show some of the scenes in the drama’s early episodes. Cinderella’s Sister is a week from its March 31 premiere on KBS, to follow current blockbuster Chuno.

gawd! it looks so cheap… who’s the designer
I totally thought Seo Woo looked like Honey Lee. I kinda did a double take on that image.
I’m not sure how I’m gonna feel about this drama. I really don’t want it to be sad or overly emotional drama. I’ve been in a really light-hearted drama watching mood and I’d rather not be crying for a drama like the dork I am for a while.
I’ll still tune in though because I love Chun Jung Myung and Moon Geun Young.
omg i thought that was honey lee too for a second. it’s definitely the haircut.
This drama is slowly turning me off more and more. I just don’t like the direction it seems headed to.
I do like MGY a lot though, so I’ll still tune into the first week’s episodes and I hope to be pleasantly surprised.
Really dislike the poster!
Ah, I love Seo Woo, but she looks so plastic here. Maybe it’ll change when the drama airs. She’s very breathtaking.
I keep laughing everytime I look at the second to last picture. It looks like Taecyeon is dancing and CJM is like, “Put em’ up boy!” hehehe~ I know it’s supposed to be them fighting but I think they could have picked a better picture…
the poster reminds me a lot of the promo poster for the movie with kim bum and kim byul…and actually, instead of reminding me of honey lee, seo woo kind of looks like kim byul with that haircut
I’m also getting slowly turned off to this drama as well. Like people say, I’m really in the mood for something light and happy. And that’s a snow scene right? C’mon… it’s Spring already!
I’m anticipating Javabeans will be recapping the series, so I’ll be reading those to get a feel for the beginning before deciding whether I want to watch or not. But I really do like Moon Geun Young. It’s quite amazing to see this person from a young age and growing up. I loved her in Painter of the Wind, and thought she was absolutely brilliant.
Can’t wait for the recaps!!
How old is Seo Woo supposed to be in this? She looks so young in the pictures! It might just be the hair, though.
And it just occurred to me what Cinderella’s Sister reminds me of: Donna Jo Napoli’s fairy-tale-twist books, the ones that show “the other side” of all the fairy tale villains…a lot of authors do fairy tale twists, but DJN was the only one to make me bawl my eyes out.
Anyway, this question has probably been answered before, but is MGY going to be an actual villain, or just misunderstood? I was never really clear about that…
Thanks for sharing! =]
Oh, and another random comment:
I wonder if there’s any significance to the fact that Taecyeon’s in white and CJM’s in black? I’m probably just reading too much into it (just finished up an English essay lol)
Yeah, I thought that was Honey Lee for a moment and I thought, “Wait a minute, Honey Lee isn’t in this drama.” I don’t really know what to expect from this drama and am uncertain if the media and producers are making it a bigger deal than it should be. I guess they have to though since it’s following a giant like Chuno.
The fighting poster, man that just makes me laugh each and everytime. Its like “Ok guys. We get the motif here. Black White. Good, Evil.”
and its just funny how they are just loked infinately in that pose. haha!
AND DONT JUDGE THE DRAMA EVEN BEFORE ITS AIRED!
(just a p.s. there)
I dislike the poster as well. For Seo Woo being the “Cinderella” she sure is played up like a trampy step-sister.
The snow scenes of course are being shot now for the 3 years later…. (I’m joking, or am I just telling the truth.) I believe the white/black clothing probably have some symbolism/reasoning to it.
I can’t wait to watch this drama.. it’s been a slow few weeks for me, since Pasta, SFFTS, and Smile You ended.. I have not been watching any drama.. this is only 1 of the 2 dramas I am literally counting the hours til its premiere.
any guess on which is the other drama????
is it me or does SEO WOO definately had surgery?Her face doesn’t add up.
I actually like the poster and find it quite nostalgic. It reminds me of classic k-drama posters. This seems like a “Wicked” kind of plot where we see why the evil are evil.
oh, i will so be watching this for MGY and CJM!! but i am also scared about the possible angst factor that seems to be everywhere!! still, if its executed well i will probably watch it…with a box of tissues prepared.
The last two photos made me laugh. Are they supposed to be fighting? Because that’s a bad shot right there. The second to the last photo especially looks like they’re dancing.
Not only does Seo Woo look like Honey Lee but Taecyeon looks a little Kim Bum (the haircut and the suggestion of a dimple).
Despite MGY and CJM being in this I have not been terribly excited by the story though I would love it if I start hearing good things after it airs. I think I’m anticipating IRIS2 the most.
the last pic looks like they’re dancing…lol
@ #4 Rainey,
How do you not like the direction it’s heading when it hasn’t officially aired yet? Isn’t a little too early to pass judgement? Also, I hope people are aware that this will be a more darker and serious role for Moon Geun Young. Different from her previous characters in the past and also, this will likely have a dramatic-theme to it.
I’m waiting until official airing, but it does have a little bit of a more angsty?, less everything is cherry pie?, moody? feel to it which I am not entire against. everything has been pretty peppy so far that I have been watching (WUAS, pasta) so moody might be good.
or maybe its was just the knocking on heavens door usage in the trailer? (which I highly approve off)
The last two pics, they do seem to be dancing……
Seo woo looks so PLASTIC in the poster. Either it’s really BAD makeup/light or…..
i was initially really excited about this drama (mainly cuz of CJM!) but idk it seems to not be my type of thing. i hope i’m wrong though! and seriously what are the guys doing in the last picture??
@AX
Yes, it is rather early to pass judgement. At least I’m not totally dismissing it, I still plan to check it out. I have the same issue with Oh, My Lady the 9 minute trailer managed to lose all my interest. I still plan to watch both though, hoping to be wrong. It has happened many times before.
sorta, kinda sick of hearing about this drama
I’m Feeling very much excited about this drama… I’ll definitely be tuning into it next week….
I’m actually excited for this….. BRING IT ON….!!!
so im confuse about who is the leading male, people keep telling me differenty guy
LOLOLLLL @ the 2nd last photo. I haven’t laughed this hard in a while, and the sad thing is that I don’t think they were going for ‘funny’ with that scene. My first thought was, “…Did they get this drama mixed up with a wuxia?”
And I’d have to agree with everyone else who has pointed out that the poster is terrible. Those are total beginner blending skills right there, and the designer didn’t even bother try and fix the lighting so all 4 photos meld together. Ah, well. Moon Geun Young looks beautiful (and remarkably like Chae Jung Ahn), and Taecyeon looks cute, but that’s about all I like.
Either way, I think I’d be more interested if they stopped releasing photos and posters and started releasing some more information about the cast.
yea, like alotta people i was really excited for this drama. now…not so much. it looks so angsty. on the other hand, i wasnt excited for personal taste at ALL mainly cuz i hate noona- dongsaeng pairings but after seeing the teaser images, i am freakin PUMPED for it
@1 -
thank you for saying so succinctly what i was thinking!!
it’s turning out to not be what it started out as…
The poster is terrible. All 4 people has different shades and the last one is blueish – can’t they get a better picture.
Don’t know whether to like or not…I will watch first ep and see how it goes
I like Seo Woo with Chun.
Moon should not have a leading man here…
i can only see honey lee if i squint and turn my head a certain way.
but LOL at all these comments! idk! i’m totes excited about this! 8D
I was sooo looking forward to this.. now, I’m not!! It looks to melo and overly dramatic! I hope they prove me wrong in ep 1!!
lol i thought seo woo looked like Honey Lee for a second too ><
wow Seo Woo does look like Honey Lee in this! Amazing what hair, makeup, and weight loss can do. and the angle of the picture. she looks nothing like the other Cinderella’s Sister photos of her.
why are the two male leads fighting in the mountains?!
Oh my goodness! I can’t believe that you thought she looked like Honey Lee too! That was my first thought when I saw the poster….”I didn’t know Honey Lee was in this….” and then scroll down and read what you said xD…..
Teasing used to be fun but now I’m annoyed.
Uhh.. only MGY’s solo poster looks nice.
But I’m still holding my hopes high for this drama. Can’t wait!
I don’t understand why so many are against this drama for being angsty. What’s wrong with a good ol’ angsty romance drama? So long as it’s not full of histrionics, I think the serious tone of Cinderella’s Sister will be quite refreshing. There has been plenty of light-hearted dramas as of late: Pasta, Wish Upon a Star, The Woman Who Still Wants to Marry, You’re Beautiful and not to mention other upcoming rom-com, Oh My Lady, Personal Taste and Prosecutor Princess. I’m ready for something a little different . . . a la Que Sera Sera.
Sorry but Im still confused about whose actually the main character?
Hopefully it MGY, cause i really like her
but since shes a villan in this drama…
@ 11 lsk4020
HAHA, I was thinking the same thing! White Knight vs. Black Knight in the MOUNTAINS!!! Looks like the Chuno bug’s bitten someone pretty hard… and I’ve written way too many English essays myself, was wondering about the “significance” about black and white.
Somehow I can’t figure out this drama. If it’s melo, what’s with all the “action” scenes?
LOL Seo Woo does look like Honey Lee at certain angle in the official poster. I think they could have done better with the poster though. I am not in a hurry to watch this drama. At the moment, I am more anxious to see Personal Taste. Here is a second teaser with Eng sub:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YARWo71P6wI
The acting looks good! LMH is a sexy beast. *drooling*
ehhh, it doesn’t really stay true to Cinderella. the stepsister(s) is supposed to be girly, not .. all emo & rebel-ish.
The last two pictures are just hilarious. What was the director thinking when taking them and why do they keep promoting their drama with those pictures?
Those of you who say you’re more and more turned off about this drama because of the angst factor obviously haven’t been paying attention to those of us who have been saying all along that this drama will definitely be a heavy melodrama based on the fact that all of the writer’s previous works have been melodramatic. Or they have been ignoring all the cues from the atmosphere of the stills that have come out and were blindly hoping it will somehow turn out to be a light-hearted romantic comedy and now they’re upset because it’s not what they want it to be. Don’t be so upset though, you still have Personal Taste (and I’m watching both!!!
)
I normally do not watch melodramas. I hated WISFC.. but I’m definitely watching this one mainly due to the cast and because Kim Kyu-wan (writer of this drama) is better than Lee Kyung-hee (writer of WISFC) in my book (I feel Kim Kyu-wan is less far-fetched than Lee Kyung-hee in developing the stories).
@44 pamilah,
I also dislike the poster but at the same time it gives me a Que Sera Sera vibe.
I’m in!
@44 pamilah
thats exactly the feel i was going for and couldn’t find the words!!!!!!
I’m all in and OH MAN, this makes me want to go watch QSS again. i forgot what a rollercoaster that drama was
Can I just have CJM??? LOL…
I first thought the drama would be a la “Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister” but modernized and more melodramatic. I’ll probably watch the first ep before making any judgments. But MGY and CJM? Talk about chemistry!
OK, the last two photos made me laugh out loud. What was that about? It looks like a martial arts movie. Black and white, wow.
a great poster and will be a great drama! i will support this drama! very good stills!! a melodrama genre.. i like it very much! a great storyline and great actors.. what a great drama will.. =D
hey, you all who made every judgments to this drama’s stills.. watch out with your words! this drama hasn’t aired yet.. why r u like judging each other by each looks? we, the viewers, must know that producing a drama and make it interesting are two hard things.. we must appreciate what they have made.. cinderella’s sister is good drama.. hehe..
Not really liking the poster, the production could have used another set of pictures.
Anyway,still excited about this drama,and hope it lives up to all its hype.The story reminds me of Gregory Maguire books.
The more I see the pictures they have released so far, the less interested I become. The pictures always give me depressing and dramatic vibes, somewhere between Will it Snow and East of Eden and that thought doesn’t make me happy.
deeta, i’m with you.
i watched a lot of melo drama, i dont mind this genre at all. in fact i love some of them so much. but like u said, the thing is with this drama, the promotional vids, pics just keep giving a depressing mood which started to turn me off. i dont want another Stairway to Heaven ride. anyway, i will still catch the 1st episode. i’ve been anticipating CJM’s comeback so much and i know he’ll keep me watching till the end like how he did to me with Fashion 70s. i hate that drama so much lol but i still finish it though with countless time of fastfowarding and cursing =P
btw, with how dramatic CS seems to look now, i think its possible rating will favor them more. though i wish they will have a more competitive in the rating since i’m anticipating PT too =P
has not even ever been shown yet but already I am getting sick of it..has there been any Korean show so over hyped? Talk about over kill! I was tempted to give it a go because of Moon Geun-young even though I try to avoid melodrama, but after all this endless promotion, I may not even bother giving it a try.
we have two wonderful dramas to watch out for!!!! hope March 31 comes fast~~…
ha, the first thing that came to mind was “dang, seo woo looks like honey lee.”
she really does!
LOLOLOLLLL… I like reading all the comments here.
As much as I resent WIFSC stupid angst, I’m looking forward to this drama nonetheless. I hope it will have different kind of angst, in a good way that is.
And I also would like to see how that Beasty Idol can pull off his character in the drama, I hope he won’t disappoint us.
Whoa, there… you call this a poster? With all the hype this drama’s been generating these past few weeks, why are they giving us just THIS?
‘o.0 ***very disappointed***
I am actually looking forward to a good melodrama.. and it seems that Cinderella’s Sister is the one I am looking for in a while. WISFC would have been good ( in my personal opinion ) if not for the too much time jumps and extreme circumstances that the characters have went through. I hope the drama would be able to show a good character development and balance the drama with the romance and make the angst tangible for the audience to be able to feel it. At least, that’s for me.
I am rom-com addict by heart, but sometimes I want to take out my dusty kleenex box and put it to good use once in a while. Plus of course, Chun! Jung! Myung! Oh my God, just seeing his eyes make me melt faster than butter in the sun!
Interesting how this official poster has those couple’s linked to an opposing match; it makes it curious to find out the true outcome. Isn’t it suppose to be Moon GeunYoung’s character be with Ok Taecyeon’s character? As Seo Woo’s character be with Chun JungMyung’s character?
Yup, for a nanosecond there Seo Woo can pass as Honey Lee’s double.
Still trying to figure out why they cast Taecyeon in this. I just don’t see his appeal.
The poster look cheap!
they prolly ran out of money due to promoting all that stale pudding, and news w/ barely an iota of substance. They recycle their baby like no other environmentalist can ever match. Over and over and over again…..
CS pr is getting
annoying and boring!!
Of course, I do agreed with the comment @ #13 – Jo — ” DON”T judge the drama before its AIRED on March 31st !!! ” I really feel you, Jo! (winks & grins)
Oh gosh, Moon Geun-Young still look so young, awwies! Lolz, these are the casts who are very good-looking and it make this poster so interesting that you never know that it would able to get a GOOD drama, I hope so! ^______^ I think that this poster is not bad as average 100% so well!
** F I G H T I N G !!! **
do we know what CJM’s character is to MGY’s? a neighborhood oppa..?
or that hasn’t been mentioned because I dont rmb reading it anywhere.
poster looks cheap. I’m still looking forward to the drama though. =)
haha i thought that was honey lee for a moment too! x)
totally dislike the poster!it looks so old fashioned and it can turn u away from watching the drama although i like the cast!!!i totally want to persuade the company to change the poster~
Highly anticipating this drama, and I have to really see Seo Woo’s acting since so many have praised her acting prowess and I’ve missed out on her previous works. I just have to tame my “naturalistic” tendencies and look favorably upon her somewhat “plastic-surgery-like” features. Faces like hers tends to rub me the wrong way, but hopefully her talent will astound me and I’ll completely forget my discomfort. lols, need to get over this habit if I intend to watch so many K ent.
Ah… the poster. I thought Seo Woo was Han Chae-young… the girl from “Delightful Chun-yang” then again when I saw the other stills, the notion was thrown out the window.
I lolled at the last two stills. What exactly are they trying to show here? An action type melodrama series? I will never understand what the producers are actually thinking. As for the show, I am bracing my self to watch a tear-jerker angsty KDrama.
Just dial down the melodrama and I would watch.
k first of, to taek’s/2PM’s antis, i want to tell u,,, SHUT UP!!!!!! he’s doing a fine job n u guys r just jealous of him so SHUT D HELL UP!!!!!
n yea to people who r wondering iff seo woo had surgery, she did hav plastic surgery,,,isnt it really obvious though by lookin at her face???? (not saying shes ugly)
im reading this after i have finished the whole drama
i do like this drama there was atleast 2 crying scenes in each ep which was getting alittle lame but the actress really did it well.
all the actor did very well in fitting with their role
the only thing i do not understand is why do they promote the drama which poster that have nothing to do with the drama. I saw the poster and kept expecting the snow fighting scene to pop up but it nevr happened
well this drama introduced me to
1) korean actress can really act
I am completely mesmerized with the amount of emotion moon geum young place in her acting
2)taeyang..i am so his fan now!!!! he’s so cute.. waiting to see more of him in the future
