Lee Jung-jin and cast on the set of Runaway
by | July 27, 2010 | 34 Comments

Now it’s Lee Jung-jin‘s turn to claim the spotlight in Runaway — although, I dunno, it’s awfully hard to compete with ridiculous “controversies” like falsified-height scandals.

The hilarious thing about this whole Rain-lied-about-his-height-or-was-it-really-the-camera-angle? non-issue is that you just know that everyone is now going to be watching this drama for scenes to compare the two actors. Secret identities? High-speed chases? Stolen fortunes? International action and intrigue? Forget all that — we want to know the exact height differential between Lee Jung-jin and Rain! Because it MATTERS!…somehow.

Anyway, on to the point: Lee Jung-jin in character as a detective named Do-soo. Along with a subordinate played by Yoon Jin-seo, Do-soo chases Rain and Lee Na-young on an extended pursuit that takes them through a number of Asian countries.

Lee Jung-jin has played clean-cut characters in previous dramas like I Love You, Don’t Cry and 2 Outs in the Bottom of the 9th Inning, but I’ve gotta say I’m liking the scruff on him here. Rugged looks good on him.

In addition to these new photos of Lee, the other images below show the rest of the cast in less hectic moments while they’re off-duty. Aside from the three above-mentioned stars, those include Yoon Son-ha, Yoon Jin-seo, and Daniel Henney.

    I read up to there and I was already ROTFL
    Good one Javabeans.

    I mean seriously how ridiculous are fans these days. SMH

    I really liked Lee Jung Jin in 9 ends 2 outs. Really look forward to watching him again. And that scruff? yumm. :D

    That said. DANIEL HENNEY IS LOOKING MIGHTY FINE!! *drools*

  3. djes

    let’s conclude somethings : Rain, Lee Jung Jin and Daniel Henney are all tall. They are all hot. I’m gonna watch Runaway for these hotties, and I don’t care who is taller.

  4. callie

    i agree wtih djes, me too!!

    oh, I can see producer Kwak there, so cute, eventhough he is the shortest among all the actors over there-but he’s the brainiest-so he don’t care abt 2cm, the most important thing is 50% rating.

    Aw! ^_________^

    How lovely of these pictures for all of crews, actors, actresses, and others. Bravo!

    Gosh, it look very DELICIOUS, yummy! (from last picture of Daniel Henney with his Korean foods) I want to try to taste this! O__O

  8. lovenyc52

    o hyungtae. i lub you.

    This whole “How tall is Rain?” issue is just so ridiculous. I’m eating up all the articles about it.

    I can’t wait for this drama. I’m so unsure of the tone, I’m just curious as to how it’ll all turn out.

    will “Runaway” be the rival action/drama against “Athena?”

  11. 11 okdubu

    lol we’ve seen a lot of wtfery from korean media and i thought nothing would surprise me anymore.. of course i was wrong. this is OT but did you guys know articles were released about the explosive reaction to shinee’s lucifer mv /before/ the mv came out? it.. was written in past tense. i don’t even know.. -___-

    but looking forward to this for yoon jinseo!!

    A jaded Rain grins… sad sight. Does he have any other smile to wear? I can’t blame him since he has J. Tune shareholders wanting to meat tenderize his financial decision.

    Daniel Henney looks like he’s enjoying his meal… PRAY EAT LOVE!

    Good luck flows for this project.

    Is ‘Runaway’ really going to be a comedy? I still have a very hard time believing that. Seriously.

  15. 15 brookeeve

    You made me snarf my gatorade with that little “because it MATTERS!… somehow” comment. My noseholes are mad at you, but the rest of me is too busy laughing to care.

  16. 16 Laura

    yeah, Knowing this about Rain changed my life, really. Omo it is 2 cm! 2 cm! :0

    The height controversy (if you can call it that) may be concorted to drum up interest.
    And why do I get the feeling that the girl ( don’t know her name) doing to peace sign in the pic with Rain is bedding him these days?
