Kim Nam-joo writes about her marriage and home

Queen of Reversals star Kim Nam-joo wrote a book, and it’s shooting up the ranks. Methinks they timed it well, with the premiere of her drama. The collection of essays and photographs, called Kim Nam-joo’s House, is a candid discussion of her family life and home.

Of particular interest, of course, is her marriage to actor Kim Seung-woo (IRIS), along with their two kids, and their happy home. Kim opened the doors of their house to have photographs taken for the book, and reportedly shows an enviable knack for interior design. Not surprising, since she’s always impeccably dressed.

The 39-year old actress has an impressively long resume, with 14 dramas and 2 films. I for some reason always remember her in the 1997 drama Model, where she starred opposite Jang Dong-gun when their careers were just budding. She’s also my definition of a true CF queen, because I’ve seen her face in cosmetics ads since time immemorial.

Her latest drama, Queen of Reversals, is really adorable. I love the speedy pace of it, and I’m in the mood for a little drama at this point. It’s actually very lighthearted and funny, with just the right amount of workplace drama to fuel my hatred for her nemesis, Coffee Prince’s Chae Jung-ahn. Her chemistry with Jung Jun-ho is really cute, and I’m a huge fan of the premise: two people who marry too quickly, and then encounter all the drama after their vows.

It’s nothing revolutionary, drama-wise, but it’s fluffy, fast-moving, and funny to boot. Am definitely enjoying this lighthearted romp.

Below is the book cover, a photo from her wedding, and shots from her now-famous Vogue spread with her husband, aka My Fantasy of What It’s Like to Be Married to Kim Seung-woo. What?

Is she wearing a Yeti in the fourth picture?
...She is!!

I must say that I really like the cover of the book. I agree with snow, it really does make her seem personable. The house also seems quite warm and cozy (not that I can really tell from the door).

yup. especially after last Lee miyeon "fake" Charity. i think " Yup it was a Good idea looking another woman ". If he is totally bastard, he wouldn't have many best friend.

Some of Win win Guests , i think they accepted to appear because their relationship with him. From the way he accept Jokes from his hoobae, this Guy is an easy going person.

Sorry, but I just want to say that it's NEVER a "good idea" to cheat. People are not black or white... you can't just label them good or bad because they are always a little bit of both. So just because you think Lee Mi Yeon is a "bad" person, that does not in any way justify Kim Seung Woo cheating on her. He could have broke it off with Lee Mi Yeon and then started his relationship with Kim Nam Joo.

With that being said, I do like both Kim Seung Woo and Kim Nam Joo. I just hate it when people try to justify cheating.

Wait what, she is 39? What is it with k drama actors and their youthfull appearence. I haven't seen an actor who isn't a grandfather with a wrinkel since the time I started to watch k-drama's.

Do the koreans have a fountain of youth I don't know about?
