Kim Seung-woo cameos for his wife’s Queen of Reversals
by | November 3, 2010 | 27 Comments

Kim Seung-woo (IRIS) drops by for a cameo in the next episode of his wife’s drama, Queen of Reversals. Aw, what a good hubby. The drama stars his wife Kim Nam-joo and his friend Jung Jun-ho (also of IRIS) as a married couple, so it’s especially good-natured of him to take the time to support them, and a great source of in-jokes for the cast.

He did the same for her in last year’s hit drama, Queen of Housewives, and has now earned himself the nickname “King of Helpful Husbands,” to mean the kind of husband who helps with housework if the wife is busy working. Gah, I didn’t think I could love him any more, but there he goes!

He’ll be playing a comedic role (which promises to be awesome, judging from the hilarious stills) as a security guard at Queens, the company where all the characters work. He’ll have a run-in with the heir to the company (played to nice understated comedic effect so far by Park Shi-hoo), where the latter will be quite drunk and a source of much angst for the bumbling guard.

Kim filmed his scene last week, and reportedly made the set erupt with laughter. He took the entire staff out for sam-gae-tang (Korean chicken soup that pretty much has magical powers. I swear, it does.) afterwards, so yeah, it’s not hard to see why he’s getting the moniker of awesomest hubby ever.

Kim Nam-joo said, “When I see him at home and when I see him on set, he shows another side of himself, my real-life handsome husband.”

Jung Jun-ho added wistfully, “They look good together.” Heh. Well, so far in the drama, you look good with her too, and moreover, your comedic chemistry together is great. It’s certainly why I’m enjoying the show as much as I am.

Kim Seung-woo’s cameo will appear in the next episode of Queen of Reversals, to air this coming Monday.

    OMO! So. CUTE!

  2. Blueangel

    I agree what a wonder hubby!

  3. Kender

    LOL. Okay, that looks adorably hilarious. I was thinking about giving it a shot, and I just might now. :D

    These still look so cute! I am really enjoying the drama so far, even though Kim Nam-joo’s horrible 70′s hair style is kind of driving me crazy. (I loved her hair in episode 1…) Anyway, I think the three of them make a great team :)

    Can I just say: I’m so jealous!!!

    If only I can catch a guy like that *swoon*

      ugh same here. he seems such an awesome guy.

    this is a nice zippy drama, and i was surprised to hear that it was averaging (fairly) low ratings. i forget what it’s up against…

    i do have one gripe with it though. i do love that they’re bringing back bits and pieces of the old cast, and winking at things that happened in season 1. they “reversed” a lot of the old familiar situations and so it’s very “insidery” in that sense. but maybe too much? it’s nice to watch as someone who loved the first season, but for people who just jumped on the ship is it still effective?

    i just get the sense that they focused a bit too much on alluding to the first season and hence maybe haven’t managed to capture the same magic of the first season. the characters are good, but not nearly as great as the first season. there’s no lee hye young or taebong, like girlfriday said!! kekeke

    i’m still really enjoying it though! i don’t know if i like park shi hoo much, but he’s acceptable. his secretary, on the other hand, the guy from speedy scandal, is quite hilarious. i look forward to his scenes quite a lot.

    chae jung ahn is a bit boring, i wish she’d have more fun with her character. i usually like her, but her villainry doesn’t hold a candle to lee hye young’s. i appreciate that they don’t make her completely hateable though.

      Actually, I’ve never seen Queen of Housewives, so if there are inside jokes, I’m on the outside, but there’s nothing that reads as too inside-jokey to me, anyway.

      As someone who knows nothing of the original, I like Queen of Reversals for its light and breezy tone.

      I like Chae Jung-ahn better here, because she’s doing something (like playing a more outright villain) with more panache, which makes it fun to hate her.

    They are SO cute. Also, KSS playing comedy = awesome. He looks constipated and it’s making me giggle.

    Too much meta/nods to the audience can get tiresome, but this is just the right amount. Like Ryu Seung-beom cameo-ing in Pasta for Gong Hyo-jin. Adorable.

      Omo! I LOVE him in comedy, too (love him full stop.). Just finished the short comedy series which he headlined; Special of My Life and it’s such a shame it’s an undiscovered gem, it has all the awesome actors in it and its every moment is so, so golden.
      I’ll check out this episode for defs.

  8. okie dokie

    This adorable! I bet they had some much fun doing this.

    I really hate her hair. It looks like she’s trying to channel 80s Lady Diana, but end up as Donald Trump instead.

    • 9.1 supah

      Bwahahaha…. Kim Hye-soo is doing the Donald Trump thing in Home Sweet Home, too.

    I remember reading news somewhere that Jung Jun-ho was supposed to get married last year? Does anyone know why it didn’t happen?

    I love them – Kim Seung woo and Jung Jun ho, they can be serious, they can be funny, and both of them have their own charisma.
