Finally! Here’s our first look at stills from the set of the highly anticipated romantic comedy film You’re My Pet, starring Jang Geun-seok and Kim Haneul, due out later this year. I thought they were never going to make this movie. Seriously, it’s been eons since the project was announced, then halted, then restarted, but now we finally have proof — they’re making the movie, and it looks adorable.
Kim Haneul stars as a career woman who is awesome at all things but love, and decides on a rather unconventional tactic of getting a pet. Because yunno, why not? Jang Geun-seok plays a younger ballet dancer who dreams of making it big as a musical actor and choreographer. I’m not gonna lie — the setup still makes no sense to me, not being familiar with the original source material (a Japanese manga), but it sounds adorably quirky and cute.
Well apparently the mail-order-pet thing is real, because there’s Jang Geun-seok in a box, sitting on her doorstep. Like a little puppy. Either that or he’s got a homeless backstory or some bizarre drinking habit.
Judging from the stills, the film’s basically going to be buckets of cute. I mean, you’ve got a puppy in a box on a rainy day… how’re you going to turn that away? I can just hear him whimpering now…

RECENTLY RECAPPED
That’s a big box.
Oh, and girlfriday, I think you’re right about the homeless backstory
I love that it looks like he’s assaulting her (cutely) in one of the pics.
I don’t think that in the Jdrama he was homeless but he escaped from home I think ? Because they won’t let him do what he want to do? I’m not sure. The Jdrama was a bit strange on that part too. (and usually Jdramas are more “realistic” than kdramas, so I wonder what could happen here! XD)
I want a pet like that. Where can I buy one?
The male character had a conflict with his mother who was a great ballet dancer, world renown. He was trained as a ballet dancer but realize he was never going to be tall enough to be a lead dancer so he was transitioning to modern dance, which his mother aggressive against so he couldn’t/wouldn’t go home and had a been staying with an older guy who wanted him to pay for the favor with his body. (if I remember correctly)
Yeah, I loved Kimi wa Pet b/c it was more about people learning to connect to people. The ballet dancer (MatsuJun) got beat up from some bad guys and I think he ended up in the box to either hide from them or he was put there by the bad guys (I think the former one is more likely).
Anyhoo, after the career girl takes him in, she tries to make him leave after he’s healed but since he stated he had nowhere to go so would like to stay with her, the girl who was going through some bad times recalling they only creature that comforted her was her dog, said he can stay if he’d be her pet. So it sort of makes sense the arrangement…
Well I found it totally endearing the whole concept of the Jdrama – there’s so much more in the subtext that going on that it’s up there with “Little Prince” story for me.
I don’t know who the Korean version will do it but I actually hoped they would try to depart a little from it (times have changed a bit since the jdrama aired back in 2003), for one thing, wished they wouldn’t try to style JGS’s hair like from the original. Still…looking forward to this movie! (Though I think Soo Ae would have been a better fit than Kim Ha Neul.)
Haha! That box was too small for him, so they extended it at the bottom. Couldn’t they find a bigger box to put him in? Generic shipping boxes comes in so many sizes. Maybe the prop assistant underestimated JGS small frame isn’t so small after all. Pahehe~
PREEEETY..
i know many others have said this before, but i really want him to do something about his hair, although it probs suits this drama i hope in future he can make it shorter
nevertheless i am reaallly looking frward to this, was previously extremly dissapointed by MSOAN but loved YAB. thannks so much for these kinda updates
hee, his hair looks like Park Shin-hye’s in You’ve Fallen For Me. Still love him though, so adorable!
Yet another unfortunate hairstyle/color for JGS, but he looks adorable in that box. I agree that BVirus was a better look for him
Lol it does He is soo cute
yes! love his hair in Beethovan Virus! so MAN!
can someone give the man a new hairstylist?! He’s so cute, yet his hair is so yikks!
I saw the Japanese Kimi Wa Petto and it was cute but I know that the Korean version would be cuter!!! It’s Jang Geun Suk!
As much as I love Jang Geun Suk, the Japanese pet was Matsu Jun! The Japanese Tsukushi/Jun Pyo! Awesomeness ♥
Oh well, if anybody wants him I’ll take him hehe
Anyway the story wasn’t very good in that drama, I hated the ending. I hope they can make better things here
agreed. Kimi wa petto ended super sucky. I hope that they do it differently here. I prefer JGS to act in a cold cool man character then sweet/cute boy.
OMG totaleee, i dint likethe ending . the story was o full of potential and SEXUAL TENSION, which we all totally felt but the movie makers killed it by having her completely oblivious to it. grrr, the ending was TOO open, is her being able to call him by his real name and not his PET name (momo) only 1 times out of eight sposed to console us? reassure us that ONE DAY they will DO IT? seriously, its kinda why i wasnt all that excited bout the remake but lookin at the stills…CMON OTS JANG GEUN SUK! and kim haneul, whom i never hearf of before 1 nights 2 days, (lol) but still, i liked her loads.:) HOPE THE MOVIE COMES OUT IN DVD SOON SO I CAN DOWNLOAD IT!!! hehe, go piracy…sorry, no offense, People Who Have Access To Korean Stuff Or Can Afford To Pay For All Their Entertainment.
The manga and jdrama are very, very good. If it turns out as well as the Antique korean movie (also with great manga, jdrama and anime sources), I’ll be happy.
That was indeed a great example of a Korean movie surpassing the Japanese drama adaptation of a good manga.
Hope this can do the same, though I must say, it has some pretty awesome shoes to fill.
I certainly wouldn’t mind if it does, but Jang Geun Suk has quite the challenge ahead then. I mean, Matsumoto Jun is quite a hard act to follow. I may be one of the seemingly few who thinks he’s fugly, but dang he was good in the J-dorama version. So..hawt….
Then again, it’s Jang Geun Suk, so maybe it won’t be such a tough challenge after all for him.
Agreed. I don’t find Jun very attractive, but he really pulls off the wounded soul thing well.
I think the Korean version will be cuter, but less conflicted than the Japanese version. There was something truly fragile about Jun in that one, and I don’t know if JGS can pull off fragile, so I think they’ll definitely have to go the cute route, which he does effortlessly. <3
yep fugly. but damn good actor. i wanted to watch more stuff with him n found this incesty film. read the comments n decided against watching it. if he pulled it off as well as i think he must have, i wouldnt have been able to sleep at night…coz i have an older brother whos like a twin…*shudders*
loved that movie! i want some movie recommendations. i watched antique bakery and man from nowhere n LOVED BOTH…i wanna watch more, but dont know where to start. oh, n i watched 100 days with mr arrogant WHICH WAS SOO OVER THE TOP FUNNY,,, gawd. MORE FILMS LIKE THOSE PLEASE
I agree, Kim!
Hanging out to see JKS in this one
Well, they seem to be changing it quite a lot. Momo wasn’t conscious when Sumire found him, but he seems to be quite perky here. We’ll see ^^
Kim Haneul has killer legs. Wanna poke to see if they are real.
I’m kind asad Jang Geun-sook hasn’t cut his hair off. Even a trim would do him good
same. seriously!
I think the hair style is supposed to go with the Momo look.
I’m with you about his hair
It was ok shoulder-length in MSOAN, but the way it is now at his chin is just not very flattering.
Her legs are amazing~~~~~
yeah. her legs are killer! that was the first thing i noticed as soon as i clicked on this article! haha! i’ll still her legs if only possible.
)
As I’ve watched the Japanese version (one of my first dramas!) I’m excited to see how they take this. They both look adorable, though I’m skeptical if it actually goes “mail order human pet” for whatever reason compared to how he’s usually found. Be finding out!
I’m not loving the length or the color of JGS’s hair, but oh well. I think it probably fits his character here. I do like it shorter in general… maybe his next role.
Anyhow – KHN is smoking hot in that outfit — lots of leg. I love her trench coat.
Ditto re JSG.
I’m looking forward to him doing a less ‘cute’ role.
I so liked his portrayals of more antagonistic characters.
I ditto here with you ladies….the hair HAS to go…its OLD now..I mean its been like what almost 2 yrs that he has been rocking the golding locks look…JGS buddy is time, is time u RETIRE the hobo/rocker look….please !!!!
I do like JGS acting and I want for him to be cast in something challenging that streches his acting skills.
it’s a momo hair-look i think… if you watch you’re my pet, their hair is almost the same. I think that’s the reason he didn’t cut it =p
DITTO (lame pun intended)
I wanted so badly to say that, but didn’t think anyone would appreciate my corny humor (did anyone else that movie but me?).
Anyhoo… you said it and I just couldn’t help myself!
DITTO (lame pun intended)
Haven’t read the manga yet, but in the Japanese drama, Jang Geun-seok’s character was homeless. He had been beaten up and was hiding in the box when the woman found him. Since all that happens in the first ep, I don’t think I’m spoiling anything for those who haven’t seen the Jdrama.
Dunno if the Kmovie will follow the same premise. JGS doesn’t look too beat up in these pictures
I enjoyed the Jdrama. Matsumoto Jun did a great job, in my opinion. Also, it was the first Jdrama I saw with “real” kissing. Not the greatest kissing, by any means! Kdramas have most Jdramas beat by a LOOOOOONG shot. But still, I gaped in shock when there was actually open-mouth kissing – more than once!!
Not to mention the fact that in the jdrama version, she definitely has a sexual relationship with her boyfriend… and one develops with her so-called pet. Given how much kdramas seem to hyperventilate over the notion of an unmarried man & woman living together, could this be why they chose to do a movie, instead? Korean movies seem to spend far less time stressing over adult women with sex lives — and the female protagonist in Kimi wa Petto not only has a career, but a sex life, and is unapologetic about both. (For all the show’s other flaws, this was one thing I really liked.)
I know right. And I like how the manga/drama addressed all the pertinent issues in a normal working woman’s life albeit in a twisted way. Heck, I wouldn’t mind finding a “pet” like that. At all. I don’t see them going much the same way as the drama honestly. Because one of the stills I saw was Jang Geun Suk’s character holding Kim Ha Neul’s character as they lay in a park and that went pretty much out of character. At least to me. Because in the manga/drama, there’s always the divide between the “master” and the “pet.” The pet will be patted but he’ll never be in the dominant position that is suggested by the still. I’m probably over analyzing, heh, but I feel as though they won’t strip Momo of all of his manliness(?) in the Kversion. Which is a shame.
In the manga, Momo would be affectionate and forward when she couldn’t find out. And when she was at her weakest, that’s when she let him be the Man. As the manga went on, this dynamic grew more and more into a traditional dominant male lead. That’s the only thing I didn’t like about it.
I really liked the Jdrama too! Matsumoto Jun was daebak!
I really liked the Japanese drama of this. It was really cute too
I’m so excited. These pics brings back fond memories. Honestly, the Jap series was so awesome that I hope this film will not disappoint viewers w/ all the [wrong] editing. My main concern is how are they going to chop and edit this into a short < 2 hrs. film?
Yay! I’m so excited for this drama because I love both the manga and the jdrama <3 I hope the korean version will add a unique touch because the jdrama is honestly in a league of its own.

Kim Haneul is so beautiful. ;_________;
i read the manga and saw jdrama of this and they were both amazing!! Matsumoto jin was great in kimi wa petto, as was koyuki, so i’m super stoked to see how jgs and kim haneul portray the characters~ I have to say, the jdrama was rly good…but i hope this movie will b good!! and i wonder who will play eita’s part??
kim ha neul is seriously gorgeous.. phew
i don tink jgs s suposd 2 luk so cln & neat… e’s suposd 2 b beaten up & kinda bloody… r s d stry chngd ere???
& nspite of bein hs fan, i’ve 2 say e’s lukin 2 girly… matsu jun had a tousld untidy luk, whic whil nt 2 flaterin, made im luk v endearin & rly lik a lost puppy… jgs bein betr lukin cn wer d luk evn betr, bt i tink imag b4 role? d pet shd nt b so preti5d, @leas n d beginin…
No offense fellow drama lover, but can you not write like that? It just takes the fun out of reading these comments. I was so glad the 90s passed so I didn’t have to decipher all those AZn 4ever cRap.
I just skip over comments written in textspeak. If someone can’t be bothered to even type all of the letters, why should I be bothered to read them?
How do I like both your comments? It annoyed me like crap when this used to be a fad – I used to refuse to read anything anyone wrote if they took out letters and substituted them for numbers. Is it so hard to write in full and proper sentences for goodness sake?
Okay sorry rant over. /grammar nazi
On topic, I loved the JDrama Kimi Wa Petto so I’m looking forward to the Korean version as well. Matsumoto Jun is a hard act to follow but I think JGS can deliver – now I’m just worried about the female lead part. Not that Kim Haneul isn’t gorgeous but think she lacks a little of the elegant classiness that the Japanese lead had…
hey sorry guys, just that i’m so used 2 texting this way that it seeped into my writing here… no offense really…
translation of that comment is:
i dont think jgs is supposed 2 look so clean & neat… he’s supposed 2 be beaten up & kinda bloody… or is the story changed here???
& inspite of bein his fan, i’ve 2 say he’s looking 2 girly… matsu jun had a tousld untidy look, which while not 2 flatterin, made him look very endearing & really like a lost puppy… jgs being better looking can wear the look even better, but i think image before role? the pet should not b so preti5d, atleast in the beginning…
AGREED. god i knew that a fellow indian/pakistani person was writing it. ‘chintu’ geez, buy a keyboard, yo, n USE IT.
its actually easier than what ur doin now.
I’m a girl and I just kept looking at KHN’s legs… so long and lean… ok I sound like a perv
No, you aren’t. Trust, I’m a girl and I had to scroll back up to check out those legs. I am so jealous.
O_O
MEE TOO, im there with ya on that
totally loved kimi wa pet – it was one of the first japanese dramas i watched. before i even heard of korean dramas
hope it does the story justice – i loved the drama and am tentatively looking forward to this movie
he looks so cute and cuddly is so cute I hope the movie is released soon odd to see him perform jks
I love Jang Geun Suk and all, but seriously, someone needs to give this boy a cut & dye. Pretty soon his hair is gonna start looking like Carrot Top’s hair.
i’m not found of JGS’s hair cut …but i’m sure he’ll be cute in Momo (original name in the Jdrama and manga) as always !
What i’m a little suspicious is about KNH …can she be crazy/cute/professional like Sumire Ywaya !
in this way Koyuki was perfect !
I liked the Dorama. The story was he looked a lot like a dog she had when she was a girl so she offers to give him a place to stay if he acts like her dog. He is basically homeless because he ran away to pursue his dream of being a… I think its called figurative dancing? Anyways, that was the story. It’s a cute show but weird. The movie will probably just as weird and cute.
OMO!!!! JGS in tights! rawww! hahaha, he a ballet dancer right? hahaha I’m looking forward to this because I have already watch the Japan version of this, and damn! they kisses very hot in here…..hehehehe! but I wish they will make the ending good because I don’t like the ending in Japan series…..the girl is way too old for the male lead, but they’re adorable cute together!
I’m probably going to hate this lolll. The manga and jdrama were PERFECT. She’s supposed to be a chain-smoking badass career women who is bad at love because men are threatened by her ambition and success*. Then she finds a cute young guy beaten bloody in a box on her doorstep and decides to help him out. This looks… not at all like that?
*I don’t think they’re going this route. Apparently they made her a worker on some kind of women’s issues magazine…
waiting to watch this!!!! JGS is so cute!!!!
The manga and the J-drama by Matsujun and Koyuki are the best! I think it will be hard to beat them.
did anybody else think that was a girl in that box at first?
Love Haneul’s shoes! Where can I get those? But boy, my feet already hurt just from looking. Men must’ve invented heels to torture women. Was iffy at first about Haneul getting this role but thought that she couldn’t be any worse than the Japanese actress (I didn’t like her). However after watching her in 1N2D, I’ve changed my mind. She’s so purty, and the legs are killer!
I know it has been mentioned numerous times already, but. The HAIR. Must. Go. Already. Everything’s wrong: the style, the color, the cut, the partition. I want a Baby and Me haircut or even a Beethoven Virus cut.
Actually, a man (a king, I believe) invented heels to make his own legs look sexy
Ah, never mind. I don’t remember where I read that, but wiki at least, disagrees.
Kim Haneul looks beautiful.
Not a fan of Jang Geun Suk, and I hate his hair, but this movie sounds like it could be fun.
I HATED the J-drama. What I thought was going to be a cutesy, fluffy kind of drama took a left turn into Bizzarroville
by the end of ep.1 – I stuck with it until 1/2 way through 4 before I gave up. She wanted a dog, and he gave her one. Honestly, I was waiting for him to have an accident on her rug and her smacking him with a rolled-up newspaper. Totally weird – eating out of a dish on the floor, her giving him baths, introducing him to her friends as her pet. Crazy.
And, what I got from the Jdrama is that the leading lady’s problems involving her love life arose because she was too tall? for most men and they were threatened by this aspect? Wacky-doodles, bar none.
I just hope that KHN & lanky-locks can pull this one off.
I think you should give the manga a try. It’s the original one (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=596) & very well written.
And her problem with love wasn’t just because she’s tall but because she’s very smart, successful, tall, good-looking & also good at martial art —> enough to keep most men away.
I don’t know about the movie… Kimi wa Petto was one of the first dramas that I watched and I loved it (or was it Matsu that I loved? lol) Then again I’m kinda skeptical about anything that’s Jdrama to Kdrama thing.
All 6 of my roommates disagree with me on this, but I like the Japanese version of BoF waaaaaaaaay better than I like the Korean one. The cinematography was awesome, but the original manga’s plot line got shot and the pacing at times made growing grass seem more interesting.
I’m really skeptical about “You’re My Pet.” Or maybe it’s JGS that I’m not too thrilled about (gahhhh, cut your hair!).
Could not agree with you more !!! about KwP and BoF.
==================================
The J version of BoF was better (maybe because it was more concise and not draggy like the K version got). I didn’t like the hero or heroine at first, but they won me over. The K version was a little lackluster in characters.
LMH did do a good job though, just thought MatsuJun was better. I really hated him at the beginning, but he turned out nicer, dumber, more dramatic and just hilarious.
==========back to the point=============
JGS does need a new do, but I loved Kimi wa Petto so much that I am gonna look for this movie anyway.
I’m actually really nervous about this one. About the only thing I like MatsuJun in is Kimi wa Petto as Momo. He was just perfect for that role as a cute, little, disheveled, puppy-like boy. That was one time that his short stature and baby looks worked out for him. Sukkie on the other hand seems like he might be too much for this role: too handsome, too tall, too coiffed, too (don’t laugh but I think that some who have seen his previous looks in things like Itaewon, The Longest 24 Months and Beethoven’s Virus, would understand me a bit but) masculine even. Still, it might be okay if Kim Ha Neul wore somehow even more of a, as Diane put it “chain-smoking badass career woman” with even more height and looks and sophistication. However, even with five? inch heels she’s barely the same height, forget taller than sukkie. True, this woman is pretty but, and you can call me picky, her face is too round and smiley (at least in these stills). She doesn’t seem to exude that edgy determination that strong, beautiful woman defy the glass ceiling with. So, seeing the same thing that Chintu and Starstuck saw, I’m scared to watch this. Even knowing that they are probably gonna have to take this in a slightly different direction, I’m worried about how they are going to make this work. Still, it can’t be worse than Do Re Mi.
GOD why’d u remind me of freakin Do Ru Mi??
ineffectual, incomprehensible, plain stupid.
HOW COULD YOU CHOOSE THE BAD KANG OVER JGS???
like i said, incomprehensible.
I don’t get it. And also, JGS looks more like a girl with every ensuing drama. Please cut your hair and grow a mustache or, at the very least, wear unambiguous men’s clothing.
Kim Haneul looks amazing. I don’t think I can watch a movie where she falls for a homeless cross-dresser without my brain exploding.
second that.
seriously, now that i come to think about it, ive NEVER seen JGS with ANY AMOUNT of facial hair….makes u think…can he not grow any?
and dont expect korean men to stick to regular mens clothing. not gonna happen…not that im complaining, its grown on me:)
third it!
It took me few episodes to get past his hair in You’re Beautiful, but in the end I loved Hwang Tae Kyung.
But Mary stayed out all night! bah! i cudn’t stand his long hair even in pics. so never bothered to watch it. stills made me think-”wait a sec, is HE the Mary here?”
And a friend of mine made an interesting observation while watching YAB- hero luks like a girl and heroine a real boy! no offense meant- i am a fan of geun suk as well!
but i think he can try to shorten his hair..
JGS really needs to cut his hair…and eat a damn burger or something seriously he looks like an anorexic lesbian
His hair in YAB was cool. The style Go Mi Nam said was cool, not the emo style
LOL!!!
Totally agree. If I didn’t know that this starred JGS I would have thought that first picture was of a pre-pubescent 12 year old girl.
@MJ
LOL! can’t stop laughing!!
I recently watched Kimi wa Petto in anticipation of You’re My Pet, and was so pleasantly surprised! Granted, the premise is so out there, and I was weirded out initially, but then I got hooked.
Kimi wa Petto was my first Jdorama, and thus my first time seeing Matsumoto Jun. He was the perfect Momo, and the actress, Koyuki did a phenomenal job as Sumire-chan.
I ended up crushing on Matsumoto Jun (surprising because I didn’t find him attractive at all until the second episode), so I attempted watching the original Japanese BOF, Hana Yori Dango, but didn’t like it too much. So I realized that my crush was actually on Momo, and not Matsumoto Jun. Heh.
I love KHN and JGS, but think it doubtful that they can replicate the intricate relationship and absolute perfect casting of Momo and Sumire-chan of the Jdorama, in a movie.
I’m envious of KHN’s legs. Though if she still religiously works out 3 hrs daily, something she mentioned in an interview way back, then I’m not surprised.
3 hrs?!! O___O
yup in the jdrama the main chara was ..thrown out..after he was sexually assaulted.. (though not that blatant) and was found , broken, outside the womans home lolol
it was a good drama
im looking fwd to this
Her legs are so skinny!!!!!!!!
I have to disagree with girlfriday for the first time ever, I think this movie is gonna be a complete fail.
If the beginning is really the stills released they already changed the story, there is also the fact that I still haven’t watched a good Kdrama based on a Jdorama, not counting the fact that Ogawa Yayoi (the manga author) building of the characters’ emotions was a like masterpiece, her talent rewarded her with 27ª Kodansha Award for Shoujo Manga.
I think SSG was better when he was the cold emo type, like in You Are Beautiful or Hong Gil Dong. I wonder if Mary Stayed Out All Night made me afraid of the lively SSG?
I honestly do not think this is gonna translate well. The random japanese quirks is what makes the manga and jdrama work. Also it wasnt just light and fluffy it delved into sex, work, dreams and intimidating possible partners.
i have no expectations for this korean remake at this point.
I hope it really does come out later this year!
So…will JGS finally cut his hair after this movie??
Let’s do a bet on whether JGS will cut his hair or not after this movie???
OH..I so want to have her legs T_____________T
watched kimi wa petto ages ago….though the concept is weird..i enjoyed it back then..can’t remember much of the ending, but i think they did ended up together.
i didn’t watch the jdrama… the stills look good. Kim Ha Neul is gorgeous… and JGS—> what’s with his hair? i think he’s gone long haired for too long. i want to cut his wavy locks.
JGS once said he has to keep his long hair to fit the character. I ‘m not sure when he will cut it but I’m sure he will if the role in the future requires him to.
There’s a scene in the manga where the character cuts his hair, so you can always hope!
Wooot Wooooot!!!! =D =D JANG GEUN SEOK!!!
Finally! Ah, I remember that this movie had been delayed last year (I think so) but it’s starting right now! =D I can’t wait for this, of course!
Woooaaahhh………Kim Haneul look soooo beautiful & she wore like that and I assume that these young women should be jealous of her beautiful legs, heh. ^.^ I am fan of JGS since I first watched him in that movie “Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do” but he was soooo cute & easy to make me so fall in love!
Ahhh……Aigoo, aigoo…….I am bit of speechless that I just read all of (everybody’s) comments because they are very complained about Jang Geun Seok’s hair at mostly, lolz. Well…….He’s still handsome, yups. ^__^
Omo, omo!!! o__O I can’t wait to see this — sooon!
GOSH! I really LOOOVE the Japanese actor, Matsumoto Jun since I first watched him in that drama “Hana Yori Dango”!!!! (sighs) How handsome he is!
Momo in a box! That alone has me excited. i’m not too afraid of how the main plot will change, as it’s a movie so there’s room for them to include some of the more interesting themes in the Japanese versions. however, there’s a good chance they’ll take it in a different, but interesting direction. so i’m still hopeful this will be good. if nothing else, i’ll watch it for Jang Geun-Seok – i think he’ll bring some complexity to Momo’s character, which could be great.
Ooh, that is so true!
Momo has this definite suppressed angst that is well-hidden in both the manga and the J-drama, but Geun-Seok-ssi could totally make that more transparent.
kimi wa petto is a manga painful to read. i didn’t finish the 80-something-chapter-manga because the schemer nurse/whore (the antagonist) was too much to bear.
so sad. 
in the manga, Sumire is the heroine( she’ll be KH). After her fiancé leaves her for his mistress and Sumire is demoted at work, she stumbles across a young injured homeless man in a box outside her condominium. She takes him in and becomes attached to him. As a joke, she says she wants to keep him as a pet. To her surprise, the young man agrees. She names him Momo (he’ll be JGS), after her beloved dog from childhood.
it’s a really fun story, and gets a little too serious when it reaches the Hong Kong arc
Please stop complaining about JKS’s hair, he did say that he needs to keep it for his roles, he will cut it for sure if the role in the future requires him to, so please leave his hair alone.
OMG! Those legs–so gorgeous!! I’ve seen the japanese original and I think I like matsujun more than JKS.
i don’t know why people keep complaining about JGS long hair, i like it on him. It fits him perfectly. It does make him a bit like a girl, but he’s cute like that….
hmmm I am fearing another 70% hype and 30 % substance one, like Lie to ME, but like Lie to ME with the lead, if can not fail..lol not matter how bad..or good it maybe. the guy just got too many fan girls who care nothing of how well acted or written it maybe, long as they can see him on screen that all they need.
somewhat off topic, but heh its a drama!
rain day, wedges with unbuttoned long coat with short shorts, gotta show off those long lean legs somehow :p
Yeah, I’m not liking the white shorts with white top on a rainy day 0.o but ya gotta admit Kim Haneul looks very pretty. Her legs! Her hair! Remember when she had this shorter wavy hairstyle before? Ugh, so freakin ugly. Lovin’ the longer hair much better
