My Princess releases teaser poster photos

Aw, now that’s adorable, no? Not only does Kim Tae-hee play a rags-to-riches Cinderella type of character in MBC’s My Princess, she’s pretty much dressed AS Cinderella, with that ballroom gown and sparkly tiara. Well, seeing as the drama is basically a modern-day fairy tale, why not go full-out for the princess motif, right? Although I’m confused as to why the princess is holding balloons and posing against a fake castle backdrop, like she’s a cast member in Disneyland’s Main Street parade.

In these stills, Kim Tae-hee’s character Lee Seol, an ordinary university student, poses with Park Hae-young (Song Seung-heon), the sole heir to a chaebol corporation who is also a foreign diplomat.

Kim Tae-hee’s no stranger to the trendy rom-com, though it’s been years since she’s done one (2004’s Love Story In Harvard), while this is Song’s first rom-com drama ever. I’m hoping that the woodenness I’ve come to expect from him in his dramatic and action roles is less of an issue in a light-hearted comedic drama. If anything, the two make a pretty gorgeous pair. Yay for eye candy!

The drama premieres on January 5.

I thought this was a car showroom promo at first. If they want to do Cinderella, then where is the pumpkin carriage drawn by horses? Sigh~

Haha! Pumpkin carriage...

Props to the product placement team though.

Anyone has any idea about what those numbers are about?

I love pretty things. Even more when they come in pairs. I can only imagine how pretty the children of Song Seung Hun and Kim Tae Hee would be if they got married. I wish in my heart of hearts for a hookup between these two beautiful stars.

It'll be interesting to see how well they act this...if the storyline is half as nonsensical as MSOAN, I'll be tuning out--I doubt they have enough charisma to hold the show together if the show doesn't have a strong storyline.

Song Seung Heon may not have ever been in a rom com Kdrama but wasn't he in He Was Cool (which i thought was pretty hilarious and cute) and Make It Big (which was also a funny movie)...does that count as comedy? ahahaha...though I saw the trailer and he seemed pretty stiff in it since his character is serious or something...booo

It had a bit of Hana Yori Dango.

Sort of. Normal girl sticking up to the big guy, and the nice guy gets rejected... and all that other... stuff.

I think that is why I loved it too. It came out at the tail end of my interest for Hana Yori Dango/Meteor Garden and during my obsession with Guiyeoni's internet novels (though now I'm like, how did I enjoy those novels where a good chunk of the word count are emoticons?! ).

And not to mention that Jung Da Bin (RIP) was so lovable! SSH didn't really get to exercise any comedy in the movie, so I'm hoping that My Princess may bring out a funny side in him.

I think the first pic of Kim Tae Hee makes her look a bit like Audrey Hepburn!

(and if KTH's character becomes a princess- does that mean she gets to be richer than SSH's character?)

0

yes, he was in both movies cos i have hv these 2 VCDs, LOL....

ummm, he was ok not really the funny guy. I fell for Lee Ki-woo (Hansung oppa) instead of him, kekekeke..

Make It Big - the movie itself is quite funny but I had my eyes on KSW (sorry, that was wayyy back then)

@ JD & girlatsea - I agree the movie itself is not that great and i much prefer the fanfic but it's a movie I hold very dear to my heart becos of JDB (RIP) and ofcourse LKW*mine* i can't explain why I love it so much..

HWC was unwatchable.

If KTH's role allows for some of her natural charisma/dorkiness to shine, she'll do better than SSH.

Now all I want to know is if that was meant as a joke or are they serious right now?

Actually, I kinda think the first pic is downright brilliant. Its just got so many LAYERS. I mean obviously the costumes play up the whole Princess bit to the extreme, and then you have the uber-luxe car (as if to scream royalty, people!) in front of the palace backdrop. If they'd stopped there I would have found it treacly, but no. Instead of a full-shot palace backdrop, they use this undersized one, and add those stage curtains, which takes the whole thing from overliteral to almost tongue-in-cheek.
And the balloons? Well, I have no idea if they have some hidden meaning, but they do a damn fine job of adding height to the composition which draws our eyes up to the lighting grid, to point out, yes this is a stage! (the balloons also do a pretty good job of (mostly) obscurring that lighting umbrella that looks so kooky in the second pic). And whoever styled the balloons deserervs a rose boquet; the way the top lavender and deep purple ones resolve into the black header is GENIUS. Go ahead, just try reimagining the picture with a white and pink one at the top. See?
Which brings me to the colors, and.I.just.die. The way the rich blues of the sky (thanks in part to that pesky umbrella light) juxtapose with the the deep reds of the curtains and the car is gorgeos. And I love the little whispy elements that tie the colors together, like the hint of pale blue on the neck and sash of the gown and that center red balloon.
For me, that top pic is like choloate melting in my mouth while I sit, wrapped in a silk-velvet blanket, in a pool of sunlight streaming through the window. If the drama uses visuals half as well, I might just watch it for the pretty!

I think these are really great promo pics. I like how the wider view picture on the bottom shows how it's a set and how everything is fake -- maybe they will be getting a bit meta on us with this revamped fairytale (and do a better job pulling it off than MSOAN)?

I am optimistically looking forward to Song Seung Heun
I know he's not the best actor but I used to think Park Shi Yeon couldn't show any range of emotion at all. I saw her in Coffee House, and she's amazing, love her now.

Looking forward to checking this one out!

I've pretty much watched most of SSH's dramas in the past(except for EoE!!)...& found him mildly attractive!
But seeing the preview of MP...had me seeing him in a new light!!! esp. after seeing the abs scene!!wink*wink*

I'll definitely watch this...maybe not so much for the acting but for the SSH eye candy!!!LOL!!

I would watch this. I suffered through LOve Story in Harvard because of Kim Rae Won, though. KTH really is not a good actress. She just bats her eyelids and looks pretty!! Eep. I also suffered through Autumn Story.... haha.

Still, looks fun and light enough to watch. Doesn't she look too old to be a student?!?! It washard enough believing it in Love Story in harvard.

I agree. SSH is woody actor. But so is KTH. But to be fair, they look great together.

I actually like the balloons in the first teaser poster because it visually asserts buoyancy, bliss, and happiness.

for some reason i dont expect much for this drama. even though the story is not cinderella, most of K-drama is all about cinderella. lovers in paris, sungkyunghwan scandal, BOF, and the list goes on.
but i still gives the drama a chance...just like the list above, it can manage to grab my attention even not 100%, so why not...
just hoping it's not a repetition or such

I never count Love Story In Harvard as a rom-com. For me, the genre was Drama & Romance ( I dont recall any comedy but I remember she had some sickness). so i would count this as KTH's first romcom!! lets see how she handle it.

Is this really Song Seung Hun's first rom-com? 'Cause I remember watching him doing a light romance series called Popcorn years back. And that was definitely no melodrama or makjang. It was just a fluffy enjoyable piece

This is called Korean taste of fairy tale i.e. dipping kimchi into soya sauce and wasabi, and serve it on a candle light breakfast table, and all the guests (in this case, the viewers), suppose to eat it with folk and knife!! Er!! Yuck!! That's called Korean creativity!! ^_________^
