When I first heard that Kim Bum would play Jung Woo-sung’s guardian-angel-esque buddy in prison for the upcoming drama Padam Padam…The Sound of His and Her Heartbeats, let’s just say I was wondering if they’d gotten it mixed up and really meant the reverse. But here we have the first stills from the drama, showing a rakish Kim Bum with a dorky Jung Woo-sung, and I can see it. (Kind of. It’s still a stretch, what with their respective resumés.)
Kim Bum plays a “4-D angel Lee Gook-soo,” so I guess they really are giving him the name Noodles, and not in a prison-nickname sort of way. (Gook-soo = noodles.) Jung Woo-sung plays Yang Kang-chil, a man who has served 16 years of hard time on a false murder charge. That means he was probably around Gook-soo’s age when he was locked up; perhaps that accounts for their bond.
The shoot pictured here took place in Seoul on the 21st, with the two guys arriving in Seoul and finding it unfamiliar but exciting. I’ll bet, especially if this is their first destination post-jail time.
Han Ji-min, meanwhile, is cast as Jung Ji-na, an “extremely pragmatic, selfish” woman. The drama premieres on cable channel jTBC on December 5.

KIM BUM JUNG WOO SUNG
AM I IN HEAVEN?
my kind of heaven ><
Ahhhh when yummy-looking guys like these two converge, they make me wonder if I died and went to heaven.
GAH! I love bromance!
can’t wait for all the camaraderie!
They will cause a heatwave of above 40 Celsius with this casting.
That 4th picture has me dreaming of bromance – small b, capital B.
***fans herself***
I meant : “small B – capital R”
I’m obviously already affected and can’t type straight.
Awww, Kim Bum… hearts!
Waow,,the story seems interesting,,can’t wait,,I love when handsome&charismatic people,like Jung Woo Sung,plays dorky roles,,it will make people curious,,
BROMANCE!!!
IKR!!! I love the bromance! <3
Im already squeeeling with anticipation!!!!!
Is it just me or is Bummie loosing his facial baby fat? His face looks so angular now, but still so CUTE!
Not fond of his man-child look and is therefore happy that he’s becoming more manly.
He’s turning more into Oh Ji Ho, really. So.. European.
I heard that he lost quite some weight for this role, and he’s been working out frequently too. He’s still cute though, but I kinda miss his man-child look. Plus, he needs a haircut.
I see Orlando Bloom in Kim Bum!! OMG Im hallucinating!!!~~
hahaha
He looks more mature indeed. I just hope that he’ll be asked to cut his hair in the middle of the drama. His long hair emphasizes his long chin and I don’t find it flattering at all.
On the bright side, do we get to see some abs and muscular biceps?
Finally, his looks are maturing! I wish he could have a ‘do over’ of his Boys over Flowers playboy role now. He had the potential then, but just too much baby fat.
I agree. He looked really boyish then. But if he were to do a similar role right now, I bet he’ll sell like pancakes. LOL. Women will drool like crazy for sure!
Uuhhhh they look soooo cute together!!
omg YES! December seems so far away.
WOW <3 The is cuteness overboard x) can't wait!
-This
sorry x)
winter too far
I wonder if Kim Bum’s character is more like the Caretaker to Paul Crewe in The Longest Yard. You know, the wimpy wisecracking insider who knows the ins-and-outs of prison and how to stay out of “trouble”. Or Jung Woo-sung could be the Andy Dufresne to Kim Bum’s Red, but Kim Bum being more of a Chris Rock Red than a Morgan Freeman Red (of Shawshank Redemption…. Or, maybe none of the above. HAHAHA.
I love your comparisons Ani.
I always fangirl your comments.
omg omg i was wondering when there was news about this today! and i just come by and get a surprise =] =] =]
dec. 5 dec.5 !!!!!! hope thereare stills of hanjimin!
so since this is shooting now and premiering in december, it means they won’t have to do ‘live’ shooting right? so its a breather for them?
I’m noticing a trend that cable dramas are not doing live shooting, and are probably producing better quality dramas than KBS, MBC, and SBS. I hope they keep it up!
I love the picture of them running! And can I just say that whatever happened to Kim Bum… I like it. Like it a lot.
See now this is the kind of casting news that I want to hear about…..I’m so excited for this along with 100 Day Promise and now (After seeing that Hot teaser) for Tree With Deep Roots….on other news..does anyone know if it’s actually doing a Full House 2 with No Min Woo and Hwang Jeung Eum…see now if that too is true my day would truly have been made
Full House 2 is a go! Soompi covered it today.
I will watch this drama. I like both actors and I want to give my support to JWS.
i find these stills so giddy adorable and laugh-inducing. hahahah
I hope there’s more bromance than romance.
MTE!
Kim Bum looks awesome! I want more photos, lol
i love it! the tandem seems promising!
i can totally see them together.^_^
finally, they release first stills..Can’t wait to see how Kim Bum’s act in his new drama..I got Ilwoo’s “Flower Boys of Ramyun Shop” this October and Kim Bum’s “Ppadam Ppadam” this December..What else can be good than this? Next maybe Lee Minho’s new project?
both are looking good.
i love that dorky vibe from Jung Woo-Sung, and I just can’t seem to recall watching him in that kind of aura before.
as for Kim Bum… man oh man….. I think I prefer this Kim Bum than his Yi Jeong persona…
Ahhh, my pretty, pretty boys!
Maybe there’ll be a scene where they’ll be drinking and will end up singing to each other, all happy drunk and back-huggie?!
One can only hope…..
KIM BUM!!! I have been waiting FOREVER!
the second pic spells a tad gay-ish BUT I’ll choose to ignore because the MAN is JUST too freaking BEAUTIFUL.
I’m already loving this <3
Hubba hubba!
Kim Bum is looking sooo good, it’s a sin :*
Bummie… i cannot wait to watch it. more hot guy to come..first siwon, jung il woo and now kim bum.. too much to handle
Yay!!I have a starting date and the 3rd photo is so cute.I would love to be walking on that street when Kim Bum and JSW comes running
Kim Bum needs a haircut.
So excited for this drama!
Whut?! This is like so friggin adorable.
Yang Kang-chil hair and style! LOL! Can’t wait.
I like KB w/ bangs more. I’ll watch this more for JWS though.
I thought Kim Bum was adorable and a total cutie pie up until a couple of days ago. That’s when I started watching The Woman Who Still Wants To Marry. Now I find him much more squee-able and I’m totally falling for him! I’m watching this drama just for him!
OMGGGG, cant wait!!
NO! i MUST stay positive…
BUT
why do i get the feeling there’ll be a girl involved whom BOTH will fall for, and kim bum will end up NOT getting hte girl?/
I don’t think KB will be having a love interest here. It’s okay, he’s only for KSE anyway.
The description of his character here, he will act as Jung Woo Sung’s guardian angel, he will not be a thirdwheel in fact he’ll protect JWS-HJM relationship in this drama.
(squeals) KIM BUMMMIE ~~~ !!! ^______^
I can’t wait to see my cute Kim Bummie back on TV korean drama with Jung Woo Sung and Ha Ji Min — So awesome!!!
Jung Woo-sung, Kim Bum, AND Han Ji-min?! I’m in.
Ack, can’t wait for this. Hopefully it’ll run good so JB & GF would recap this. ^o^)/
And am actually holding my breath when I see these pictures, is there something wrong with me? X’))
sorry – I can’t help but think of Forrest Gump…
Yayness! Bummie looks really good here. and Jung Woo Sung, ah, can’t ask for more.
Whoa, that’s Kim Bum?!?!
He’s changed so much. Amazing what diet + exercise can do and he was already thin to begin with.
when he was fat??:O
Slightly bemused… but definitely intrigued! I’m gonna keep my eye on this one
I can’t wait to see han ji min!
