I guess today is just going to be photo-overload day. Take a look at a massive collection of stills from Take Care of Us, Captain, SBS’s new entry in the Wednesday-Thursday race. It’s up against two promising other new entries — The Moon That Embraces The Sun and Wild Romance — so all eyes will be on the ratings numbers once the three have made their simultaneous bows.
I’ll admit to being lukewarm on the concept of Captain, but now that I’ve seen more from the show, I do think it looks very pretty. Plus, Ji Jin-hee looks awesome. I don’t just mean that in the “He’s so hot” way — that doesn’t hurt, though — but that he looks completely into character and charismatic, even in still photographs. Not that we’d expect any less of Ji, who’s so good when he’s got a good script and cast to work with. (Not that he’s ever bad. But he can be wasted, that’s for sure. See: Spotlight.)
But let’s get right to the good stuff:
Here’s Ji Jin-hee, playing the skilled, consummate-professional pilot of a passenger airline. He looks serious. Like the kind of guy who won’t put up with rookie co-pilots not performing up to par.
Oh, look! A shower scene!
Gu Hye-sun is that rookie co-pilot, also the unni (-slash-mother-figure) to her much younger sister. I know The Musical was a mess for her, but perhaps in a better drama, she’ll be better. I do wish she’d cut out the exaggerated facial expressions, though. I’ve found she’s best when being quietly dramatic. (Keyword: quietly.)
The heroine at work:
Lee Chun-hee plays an air traffic controller, and also romance spoiler:
Apparently his character gets along with the heroine’s younger sister. And it looks like unni’s a little protective of her charge.
At some point she has to meet the hero and get to know him outside of work. What better place than in the great outdoors, with nature’s mood lighting setting the ambiance?
And then I guess there are some other characters. Like the flight attendant played by Yoo Sun, and the airline director played by an actress going simply by Clara. Wait, is Honey Lee no longer in this drama? Huh.

OMG am I first for the first time ever?!
Am not a fan of airport/airplane dramas but many of the jdrama ones (attention please, call me CA) have ended up being pretty good so might give this one a chance
You forgot the best one: “Good Luck!!”
so glad i wasn’t the only one who thought of that immediately. kimutaku ftw.
YES, GOOD LUCK!! My favorite!
Ah yes, Attention Please! That was a really good one. Ueto and Nishikido were nicely paired. I’m bummed I missed out on Good Luck though. Must watch it. X/
Not that Ji Jin Hee is not fit or what, but him in a shower scene – is it necessary… …
It’s necessary!!! For me!!! lol (>_<)
Maybe not “necessary”, but surely appreciated. Go JJH! You shower your fine self!
Not only is his shower scene necessary, it’s vital to the well-being of his devoted viewership, one of whom is writing this comment.
A shower scene, like exercise, invigorates the mind.
Of course it is. It portrays realism. People must shower so they can be clean. Its good to have a dose of reality in a work of fiction.
I don’t know if it’s necessary or not….but I can never erase that visual given me when watching him with his bare butt exposed in “He Who Can’t Marry”. Wait, or is it “She Who Can’t Marry”. See what his butt made me do? It made me forget the title of that drama.
You need to ask?
I’m already sold with just JJH. But shower scence? It’s a must see now!
Ji Jin-hee’s hair is the only one I liked.
Ah, GHS. Please don’t tell me you’re still doing your own make-up? *don’tbashmedon’tbashmeit’sjustaquestion*
CHUN HEE!! *flail*
Message to Gu Hye-sun,
1. You should have considered changing something in you , so we could feel we are watching something new – the same hairstyle in consecutive shows is not working for us.
2. Are those one hat fits all ? May be you can ask for a smaller hat, that looks like you borrowed someone elses hat.
3. If she is going to act like a kind with half murmured dialogues without clarity i am going to go crazy.
To the director :
1. can you not have any kissing scenes with GHS and anyone ? coz it actually kills the romantic pairing if there existed any – it was only coz of Lee Min Ho that BOF pulled through.
2. i thought pilots and air-controlled were well groomed folks – now can we get some decent hair styles. i am not asking for much.
I am excited – am a sucker for air shows and i hope this is good.
You must be lee min ho fans….gosh….kisss??? Why people just care about kiss…there’s something more important than a kiss….
so funny but true… your forgot my biggest peeve when Gu Hye-sun does that little tight lipped half smirk that she always does when she is thinking or trying to smile or sad or happy or……..
I so wanted to see this but I think it will be a pass for me because of Gu hye-sun plus any romance between her and the two main men , ugh
cheers, parsnip
agree with your comments Isabelle; wish they would have her in a different hairstyle!! Where’s the imagination? I guess i will skip this drama – the stills are not enticing enough. Not even the shower scene!!
Unbelievable!
You guys, complain a lot when it comes to Goo Hye sun’s drama.. I guess you’re not a fan.
“the stills are not enticing enough. Not even the shower scene!!”
Why, who do you want to see in the shower scene????
The drama doesn’t start yet and I read complains, critics etc etc here and there. hey, stills for me is spectacular, I can’t believe that they produce this kind of film in a TV drama. Its like you’re watching a hollywood film.
Sigh, Sigh, Sigh, Sigh….
I agree with GHS kissing scenes. They don’t look romantic at all. And her hairstyle is not helping.
@isabelle: here’s my take on your messages to Ku Hye sun and the director:
Message to Gu Hye-sun,
1. You should have considered changing something in you , so we could feel we are watching something new – the same hairstyle in consecutive shows is not working for us.
** I agree with you regarding with the hair change, I hope that the Please Captain hairstylist will read your note**
2. Are those one hat fits all ? May be you can ask for a smaller hat, that looks like you borrowed someone elses hat.
**I think the hat is fine, GHS has a cute and small face, it will look uneven to her face if she wears smaller hat . I’m sure the PC staff knows what the best for their actors.**
3. If she is going to act like a kind with half murmured dialogues without clarity i am going to go crazy.
**I didn’t get what you mean by “half murmured dialogues w/o clarity”. I have watched her in Pure 19, BOF and The King and I, I don’t see anything wrong on her dialogues. GHS is just portraying the “character’ in the drama under the direction of the crews and the movie DIRECTOR.**
To the director :
1. can you not have any kissing scenes with GHS and anyone ? coz it actually kills the romantic pairing if there existed any – it was only coz of Lee Min Ho that BOF pulled through.
** Are you kidding me, only LMH that BOF pulled through!!?? You should watched the BTS video of their kissing scene., and hey, GHS is already a STAR and LMH is just a neophyte actor in BOF. Again the Director wanted the kissing scene to be that way in BOF. Who knows, you will be surprised with GHS and JJH romance in this drama.. WELL fasten your seatbelts sweetie! because GHS and JJH will fly you high up in the sky
**
GHS and JJH looks GORGEOUS in their uniform. All cast are goodlooking..
I want to add one more item to Isabelle Director list….
Please do not have her getting up early to deliver milk with cute little notes ! while still being a pilot.
cheers, parsnip
It seems like a lot of pictures to pre-release… I feel I like I have seen the first episode already (almost).
I think that they are scared of the competition : Have you seen all the shows starting at the same time ? And with big awaited stars. They are trying to attract as many viewers as possible, using the cards they have in hand. I can’t blame them for that honestly.
I was actually thinking that that must be their motivation.
But, heck, one image from the press conference of Moon that Embraces the Sun is enough for me.
Gotta pity them though. Tough competition indeed!
Tough competition indeed! Does this mean poor JJH has to have more than one shower scene to pull in viewers? I’ve always thought of him as a dramatic actor, fully clothed, dressed in full sageuk attire….Jewel in the Palace has permanently seared that image onto my brain cells. How sad that such a fine actor has to have that obligatory shower scene just to drive up ratings.
That is sad… Hancinema recently had an interesting two-part article on this, called The Dark Side of Korean Drama – and ‘obligatory shower scenes to drive up ratings’ were one of the things mentioned.
See:
Part 1: http://www.hancinema.net/the-dark-side-of-korean-drama–part-1-36449.html
Part 2: http://www.hancinema.net/the-dark-side-of-korean-drama–part-2-36709.html
@YY – I know JJH has a lot of fans.. but is he the only actor in this drama?? Common.. there’s LCH and other actors, they have fans too! The ratings will definitely drive up if the plot is interesting to watch.. not only because JJH’s shower scene. duh! let me tell you this.. GHS HAS A HUGE FAN BASE, LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL FANS.
They are not scared with the competition, its just that they need to do a lot of promotion, becoz this project is a big production and investors/producers invested a huge amount of money just to give the audience a great drama. Did you see the trailer. CINEMATOGRAPHY IS SPECTACULAR! It’s like you’re watching a hollywood film in a tv drama.
I wish they made Gu Hye-sun’s uniform more attractive.
If esthetic is an indicator, that looks promising : I love the photography and the colors. GHS seems more… euh, relaxed and natural than in Musical. Much, much better. Or it is that she plays a stronger grounded character ?
Lee Chun-Hee is cute, cute. Someone’s going to use babysitting as an excuse for sticking at the heroine’s home…
I love the planes and hope we will see plenty of them all along and not only in first ep ( Poseidon Props Cheating Syndrome ).
I love the junk bus : beautiful secret hideout.
I bet that junk bus has a secret shower stashed beneath the junk.
hrmmm… if they release more pictures of each episodes… We do not have to watch the drama at all.. We can just look at the pictures and know what is going on or just have pictures of Mr. HOTTIE Captain and HOTTIE Air Controller in each episodes..=D Oh… Dear PDnim do not let GHS kissing Mr. HOTTIE Captain nor her kissing Mr. HOTTIE Air Controller… Heck do not have her kissing anyone.. She totally ruin the mood… *running away from people with stakes*
i’m trying looking forward for this drama
CHUNHEEEEEEEEEEE <3
Where is Honey Lee? They reported shes one of the cast. I’ll be disappointed if my Miss Universe is not included in this drama.
She dropped the drama. Or got dropped. She was a third line character anyway, so i don’t think it will modify the value of the thing.
Not sure if i really want to watch this. GHS is cute and all but a little bit twitchy for me. I’ll probably end up reading the recaps for this since all my favorite dramas ended. GIVE ME SOMETHING TO READ!!!
Are we really supposed to believe that cute little bundle of sugary perkiness is a co-pilot? The hat three sizes too big, the oversized tie, the exaggerated expressions … it’s too much Shirley Temple-on-the-Good-Ship-Lollipop, and makes me long for a totally different take on airplane dramas: one that ends in a stalled dive into the sea, or a fireball in the Mohave Desert.
Seconded. I’d have a hard time believing GHS is allowed to sit in an exit row (potentially having to assist with the 35 lb. emergency door), let alone certify as a commercial pilot.
Hey! She’s certified – didn’t you see her diploma?! – JB showed it nice and large on her former post for this drama.
It’s really worth a few minutes to go back and take a long look at it. **snerk!**
She qualified from the Redbaron airline academy of sanfrancisco. See, I can quote all that in one breath *beaming*
clap, clap, clap… you deserve a diploma from the Redbaron airline academy of sanfrancisco…. teehee
Hey, YY – remind me never to play Trivial Pursuit with you.
I have a feeling you could crush me!
LOL…
Please tell me there wasn’t a picture of Snoopy on the diploma!
Snoopy was her chief instructor, I believe.
The first is an honest to goodness question, not an insinuation in any way. Is GHS gay and, therefore, does not like to kiss men?
Or in the Korean culture, has she not reached the age when girls are expected to be comfortable kissing men?
Or is her religion one that looks at kissing as an occasion for sin?
Chicken.
Out of your three choices, I’ll be going with the first one.
(Not that there’s anything wrong with that…)
If you knew who her boyfriend is, I’m pretty sure you’d flip and take back your answer. lol
Jo Kwon of 2AM?
Now THAT’s hilarious!
Nope!
he he he he he
GOO hye Sun is dating the PRINCE OF CHINA!!!
who? who? do tell…
don’t tell me it’s Kang Ji Hwan!
oh yes, please do tell! We are quite curious to know..
But how come S. Korea showbusiness is not aware that she have one at all. Never seen any news about it eversince.
first choice for me too… i love her but her look is so lesbo
The answers to your questions:
1. I highly doubt she’s gay. She sports that hairstyle because it’s CUTE. Longer hair would appear less cute. Cute short hair means she can act cute and forever 18 and pull all those expressions that she is a master (mistress?) at.
2. I think she has long passed the age where Korean girls are deemed too young to kiss. Emphasis on the LONG.
3. I doubt she’s religiously-inclined and frowns on kissing. She would have become a nun and not an actress if she had been so inclined. But the nuns would probably have cured her of the many expressions she is fond of pulling. But this is beside the point.
So why does she clamp her lips tight and squeeze her eyes shut when she does her ‘kissing’ scenes? The answer is obvious. She is shy. She hates kissing in public. With a million cameras, lights and eyes trained on her, she freezes. There is a name for this. It is called Public Kissing Phobia, PKP for short.
Public Kissing Phobia (PKP):
This is an affliction that strikes many Korean actresses. Some recover, some don’t. Some are driven to desperation to cure this affliction. No man or woman is safe from these desperadoes as they grab and practise their kissing skills on them before the Great Scene. Cameramen and extras have been known to suffer the most from the actions of these desperadoes. Thankfully, GHS has not degenerated to this level. Yet.
Regarding the public kissing phobia …. if that is true and I don’t think it is … she needs to get over it if she wants to be a good actress … either that or the director needs to direct the camera man to shoot the back of head during kiss scenes. I’ve seen other korean actresses doing the closed lips kiss but GYS flunks even that …. she’s that bad. Honestly it’s like she finds her “partner” repulsive.
and another thing … as far as her hair style … i have no problem. the hat … no problem there too. just saying…
I can’t answer for.fear.of.backlash. directly for of fear backlash.keh.keh. Yeah, aren’t they professional? Am trying to milk out kissing lessons here & there but most times, I’m getting the feeling that she’s ‘put-off’.
I’m going to pray very hard that this drama is where GYS finally finds the RIGHT man who turns he socks off and drives her wild!
@ ! will.remain.anonymous
“Is GHS gay and, therefore, does not like to kiss men?”
your jaw will drop on the floor if you find out who is she dating!
He he he !!Does not like to kiss men?? youre hilarious!
ah this hullahop is getting interesting..who is she dating then? Let’s see if my jaw will really touch the floor once I heard it…
Okay! I’ ll tell yaahh
GHS is dating the PRINCE OF CHINA!!!
She’s definitely dating, not only the prince of China but the prince of Asia! Yeah! All you GHS bashers will drop to the floor if you’ll find out who she’s dating. kekeke..what do you think she made him fall in love with her..could be again?It’s the kiss. Yeah! she just don’t open her mouth to kiss anybody because she only passionately kiss the prince of Asia. Sorry, if your not a fan of GHS you’ll never know. EAT YOUR HEARTS OUT!
I’ll watch it (: I think it looks good.
Love Lee Chun Hee in that mustard sweater *.*
And it seems someone dies ): I think I’ve been watching too many dramas where someone dies…
Definitely will be watching together with the moon that embraces …..looks like they are good dramas
Are we watching dramas only for the kiss? For me it is always the story. Her last 2 characters were experiencing their first love. The director always go over the kind of kiss they want.Remember it is acting. BOF pressed-lipped kisses, as directed were fine. Some other not good kisses did not get any criticism. Why target only GHS? It is ridiculous some of the comments here….not classy…
The trailers so far are amazing. The cinematography is beautiful. Hopefully it is well-written. It looks good. Definitely will give it a try at least.
Actually, I’ve seen so many complaints about various horrible kiss scenes that did not involve Gu Hye-son. Han Chae Young, for example, has been accused more than once about her lack of kissing skills.
No, we do not watch for the kissing. But we do hope that if you’re going to sell your romance, that you’re going to try and make us viewers believe you are in love, we need the kiss to sizzle. Even a closed mouth kiss can sizzle if done right. And if you as an actor/actress can’t convince the viewers that you are a OTP, than you just wasted the viewers time.
Dear, for me I care less about the kissing.
What important is the acting and she failed at that. Very badly. There are many subtle way of portraying an awkward first kiss etc but major complaint is she CAN’T act.
The way she laugh, smirked, an exaggerated expression, similar expression for almost everything, no substance etc.
Note: This is not personal attack, this is about her acting.
@anastasia.
hey, you are so brutal in saying the GHS CAN’T ACT..
let me remind you that since her drama pure 19, she’s always a headliner for female lead roles in a drama. she never auditioned for a major role while others are struggling to get one.. How can you say that she can’t act. For me, this is a personal attack.,
Well the more people will say negative or positive things to her, the more she will climb/fly high up in the sky!. Hey, you MUST watch this drama becoz the CINEMATOGRAPHY is SPECTACULAR! I say, give her a chance, maybe she will show something different this time, more matured character and I believe there will be a sizzling romance (kissing scnes) between the 3 lead characters. STAY TUNED!
I haven’t seen any of her work in their entirety so I can can’t judge her acting. I just wanted to point out that just because an actor or actress headlines a drama as a lead does not mean they’re any good. I mean, look at Keanu Reeves, Song Seung-hun, Kim Taehee, etc.
*High fiving you for mentioning Kim Tae Hee*
I don’t care how pretty she is, she bores me.
Hello…….Keanu? he doesn’t need to act all he has to do is stand there and be a log and he is just fineeeeeeeeeeeee. I saw him up and personal and no screen did any justice to that face.. Love him to death, Back to GHS she did a good job in Pure 19 and the King and I and so as somebody said..its what the character called for. For me she is a very talented. Let’s just watch and see what this drama is about. Why don’t we fly with her and just enjoy the ride. May all of us has a safe landing after all this ranting and raving. Am not a critic so can’t say much about acting. So for now CHILL have a cookie or something
“I believe there will be a sizzling romance (kissing scnes) between the 3 lead characters.”
Seriously? I mean, SERIOUSLY?!
The only way a “sizzling” romance (kissing ‘scnes’) between
GHS, JJH & Chundarella could happen is if the two boys get busy with each other while GHS is seated in the corner to observe – which isn’t a bad idea. She could pick up some pointers. God knows, she needs them.
Oh Yeah! let’s see, maybe your jaw will drop after watching this drama.
Whatever gave you the impression that I’d be watching this?
Becoz, you always popping up everytime you see good comments about GHS.. you seemed really interested about her acting, so don’t hold yourself, Let’s watch and learn from this drama. :0
Oh I think you will be watching this (nudge & tickle). Since you read this post you are somehow intrigue. Come and watch this drama with us you might like it or even loved it. Not only that who will you critique if you won’t see her acting. ould be fun.
Unfortunately, nothing frizzles out the sizzle as fast as a frozen poker face and a mouth clamped shut.
I agree with you CHOISUNfan, that was really rude of Anastacia..Makers of BOF wanted her to be JANDI..and same thing with the rest of her dramas..Producers of THE MUSICAL went to Peach Tree set to convince her for her role in TM, PCAP producers FLEW TO TAIWAN to get her..she never auditioned for any role! and those BEST ACTRESSES AWARDS she got from these dramas…
HYE SUN FIGHTING!
I wonder those names above who is obviously against Hyesun Drama , what the in h*ll are you doing in this article?It’s the same comments you post anyway why bother ? Are you Hyesuns Witch stepmother and trying to sabotage GHS , Well ! I should say You can’t put a good person down…..
it’s unfair to accuse GHS of such thing. How do you define great acting? To just make you aware, the directors are the ones pursuing Goo Hye Sun. The director of this drama personally visited GHS in Taiwan when she was doing the AD drama.
Unfortunately Anastasia, fans take everything as a personal attack. They are blinded that way and obsessive in their devotion. Criticize anything about their beloved and they will attack you with their immature remarks. In some ways it’s fun to rile them up … which actually takes very little effort.
Gu Hye-sun
“Boys Over Flowers” was the first drama (besides a family mackjang (cancer, abusive parents…etc.) I ever watched and became my obsessive love so I was indifferent to Gu Hye-Sun’s acting as I was too immersed in the story.
Now, having seen many dramas and recaps, my “standard” is much higher now and while my first love is “Boys Over Flowers”, I cringe at the characteristics in her acting whenever I re-watch the show.
Also, I wonder why she keeps sporting that bowl-like -hair. I thought her hair was like that in BOF because she was supposed to be a poor girl who can’t afford good hairstyles/haircuts… O.ooOoO
I mean, I don’t mind it too much and it’s her hair blah blah blah but knowing how appearances are so emphasized upon (with plastic surgery on a high with actresses), I wonder why she wouldn’t be able to get a haircut that suits her. I remember she looked quite lovely in Heart of 19 with her hair down and middle length.
@Star
Goo Hye sun is the best choice to portray the JANDI character in BOF.
Her comedic timing is amazing, I didn’t see that acting/skill in other actors. She made me laugh, cry, stunned in this drama.
“I cringe at the characteristics in her acting whenever I re-watch the show. ”
You keep complaining about her acting but you are still rewatching the show?? why watch again if you can take her acting.. Are you lying to yourself? Hilarious.. okay enough..
@Choisunfan … will you get a GRIP! Star loves the BoF story so that is why she rewatches it INSPITE of the lousy acting of GHS. There is more to the drama than GHS and I’m happy to say that there is more to life than GHS. I’m glad she’s not my whole world like she is yours. Sheesh!
@Bamboobreeze
ha h ah ha you guys are hilarious, I don’t get why you’re still rewatching the show while you “cringed for her bad acting”.. isn’t it painful?? STOP WATCHING!!If you ask me, I will never rewatch a show if i can’t take an actors lousy acting inspite of a good plot. I can’t concentrate on the story.
Goo Hye Sun portrays “Jandi” which is the is the main character. The story mostly revolves around her and of course Jun Pyo. How can the story be good if the actors doesn’t perform well.
And hey, I’m not talking about my life or whole world for GHS, we are talking about her acting here.
You get a GRIP..
and please let’s stay on the topic.. Please Captain , take care of us is the subject here not BOF.. Peace!
@CHOISUNFAN Ever heard of fast forwarding? And it’s really none of your business what others want to do. BYE…………………..
I wonder how GHS’s agent manages to have her cast as the female, considering her sub-zero no chemistry whatsoever with the male leads, whether they be named Lee Min Ho or Choi Daniel. Seriously how could she remain so cold and distant, especially when she is supposed to be so in love with them? I mean I’m not into acting yet I would definitely show some passion towards those gentlemen but she never did. Not once. Her tight lips, blunt face and frozen body are too painful to watch, again, given her supposedly acting skills. Or lack of thereof.
Sorry, I’ll pass on that one too, despite Ji Jin-hee. I’m no masochist.
i’ll also have to pass… goo hye sun looks out of place.
OMG – I’m dying laughing here at all the trying-not-to-be-insulting-regarding-GHS-and-her-lack-of-acting/kissing/chemistry/wardrobe/hairstyle skills in this new project.
All this tip-toeing around is deafening, and speaking of deafening, hear that sound?!
It’s the alarm going off in the Fangirl Cave.
I feel as if I should watch any one of her dramas and see what the hoopla is all about. Boys Over Flowers was a long while back, and I skipped through it a lot because it was “meh” to me so I have no idea if she’s as good and/or as bad as people say she is.
I’m laughing hysterically. Your comment is so spot on.
MMmmm after looking at the stills I still can’t work out whether its worth watching or not. Have never been a fan of pilots/captains/flights but I do like Goo Hye Sun.
I try to like Gu Hye Sun, I really do. I’ll give it another try… but the real reason in watching the drama is Ji JIN HEE!!!!! <3 so incredibly awesome!!!
lol so sbs is having their lead actors to be on Running Man this week to help promote this drama? it’s totally helping as next week RM preview looks amazing!
They really look hot in their dark suits and shades, don’t they?! Rawwr…
RM is calling it the “Killers” episode.
The stills look promising. I may watch it. JJH looks like a cool pilot. As for GHS’s chesmistry with leading man, i think she and Lee minho had great chemistry on screen.
Kissing scnene maybe weak, but still i enjoyed to see them together in BOF.
I agree with you. She and LMH had great natural chemistry in BOF. Love them in BOF and so did many others who thought so. BOF is very popular all over Asia.GHS also had great chemistry with SJS in Pure 19.
am I the only one here who didn’t think they have a chemistry during BOF? Even Soeul couple outshines their chemistry on screen *IMO*
You’re not alone.
I agree as well …. no chemistry.
agreed
Second that.
I watched her in Chilwoo and for the entire drama I couldn’t figure out whether or not she like any of the two characters that is Chilwoo (Eric) and the assasin (Yoo Ah In!!!) whom seem to like her! In short, I don’t know what she was trying to do in the drama!
It was her in Chilwoo? LOL She was just okay
@jessie..YOU’RE DEFINITELY NOT ALONE!
As much as I was mad for BOF back then and the Jandi-Junpyo pairing, I did think that she had more chemistry with Ji-hoo and that Jun-pyo had more chemistry with Jae-kyung.
Maybe the kissing scene wasn’t memorable in BOF, but I remember that I still squealed out loud over it. Oh, wait, now I remember the scene where Jun-pyo swooped in to kiss her in the street. Now that I liked.
If it’s a great kiss scene, I’m happy. If it’s not, I’m still happy. I look for the feelings/emotions behind that scene more than the actual kiss itself. I’d rather choose to see a simple peck on the lips with all the pent-up feelings behind it than a random torrid kiss just because…or to raise ratings.*coughltmcough*
@ cynthia…did you see bts of bof?? Im preety sure that lee min ho admirer hye sun a lot..if they didnt have a chemistry during bof, they wouldnt get best couple award..
I’m not sure why you want a BOF reaction from me, but if you feel that winning a ‘Best Couple’ award from the same production company that provided their paychecks is some proof of ‘chemistry’, well then, what can I say?
Other than this – Song Joong-ki and Yoo Ah-in also won a ‘Best Couple’ award last year. So, on that basis, do you still believe Best Couple awards = Chemistry?
(Actually now that I think of it, the boys showed WAY more bromance/chemistry than the pairing of GHS & LMH.)
Cynthia.Cynthia.Cynthia.You really sound like a Villain in Every GHS Dramabeans articles…you’re comments, hmnnn nothing’s new..same old story , sigh
so you noticed it too? Anyway, as long as our Goo Hye Sun is busy with doing dramas and producing films, we will not be affected with the lousy comments of the antis. Goo Hye Sun will continue to soar in her popularity. Not only in Korea but throughout the world.
Keep it coming CYNTHIA!!
I think she’s smiling while reading your post. You’re making her more famous with your comments.
I THINK YOU LOVE HER,
you can’t stop talking about her!
And I think that you need to grow up and develop a modicum of grace while disagreeing with someone else’s opinions.
The horse is dead – no amount of CAPITALIZATION is going to bring it back to life.
Time for you and cohorts to return to the FanGirl Cave.
See you at the next GHS post – it’s been fun!
@Cynthia
BRING IT ON! Oh, and find time to watch Please Captain
so you can post your “opinions” or “comments”
Ok see yaah – and yes I’ts been fun.
JJH JJH JJH
I am definitely going to watch this… for JJH… I think he’s a really good actor as long as the script isn’t crap. I have to have my dose of mature actors too — the ones I like when I was younger.
I am looking forward to the other 2 dramas more of course – KSH & JIW – say no more.
I’m so there. WR — so curious how that’s going to turn out.
GHS – She hasn’t really impressed me at all in any of her dramas but maybe this will be the one that turns it around. I hope that JJH and GHS have some sort of chemistry onscreen. I was really doubtful about JJH & HHJ and that turned out well for me. So I’m still hopeful about this one. I see this dramas as being the lowest rated out of the 3 big station dramas… but I love an underdog! Please don’t disappoint me!
I am definitely excited for this drama. The cinematography is great. I love the vibe of the show too. Based on the four trailers released by SBS, there’s a good combination of drama and romance here.
I’m a fan of hye-sun! I’m glad she gets to play a pilot cause she really wanted to learn how to fly planes in real life.
Oh, and Ji Jin Hee is one hot man!!
Like the clothes.
my love for ji jin hee and lee chun hee are not strong enough fo me to watch something with goo hye sung in it. i tried to watch the musical but she drove me crazy.
There is no way on Earth I’m sitting through another drama with GHS. And I’ve seen Pure 19. It’s a shame, because I love JJH and LCH. Sorry guys, I’ll catch your next dramas.
it’s ok. you’re not a big loss at all.
Looks very pretty, but I don’t think I’m going to watch, I don’t feel a pull and I already have my plate full with Padam Padam, finishing TWDR, Extravagant Challenge (T-drama) Watching Ojakkyo Bros., Watching the moon sun whatever drama, watching Light & Shadows… and then whatever else comes on in the new year… I have my plate full I think. nope this drama probaby won’t fit in my plate anymore
Cant wait for this drama !!!
Lee Chun Hee <3
PPl complain about her kissing scenes, big hat, her chemistry with her leading men, her hairstyle, the way she dress, har facial expression, her character, etc etc etc etc.. sigh sigh..sigh
These only proves that she is an interesting person and worth to talk about. Thank you.. people.
After all these years, since her debut in 2004, Goo Hye sun is still on top of her game.. in fact, she is still climbing up more high up in the sky, her achievements in arts are unimaginable to accomplished in a short period of time, making films, writing a novel, acting, composing, painting, etc etc, .. How cool is that! It’s scary to know what’s she’s gonna do next and what she will become in the next 5 or 10 years. let me tell you what I wish for her. I would love to see her receiving an award for her best foreign film in the Academy Award..
She’s a regular Renaissance Man – perhaps she’ll find some area to excel in and focus her talent – but I seriously doubt it will be in the acting field. Producing or directing, maybe, but acting? No.
OMG, Cynthia, Renaissance Man? LOLOL
LOL! hey Cynthia, I bet you’ve watched all GHS drama becoz you can describe her acting skills very well!
tsk tsk tsk… I guess you LOVE what you HATE!!
and oh yeah! She’s an EXCELLENT Renaisance Man!
Hey! you are trying freaking hard to defend your bias here. Relax!!!!
@NoOne..
Hey I’m cool! Chill!
LOL
hey girl or boy…relax! don’t mind them! that’s what they want –> your attention <– well..it's obviously they don't have any XX))
I think it’s not that she’s an interesting person … it’s more puzzlement than anything else … like trying to get the answer to a perplexing riddle. I think she was lucky to have a one time hit in Pure 19 and was able to ride on that success with BoF with the help of the popular and handsome male cast but her luck is definitely running out.
@Ahjumma

“Let me remind you.. GHS is already a STAR and the handsome male cast were just neophyte actor that time, meaning NEWBIE ACTORS. are you kidding me!
PEACE
her luck is definitely NOT running out, in fact IT’S STILL SOARING HIGH UP IN THE SKY!!
@ choisunfan GHS is a “lucky star” but I don’t think she can ride on this luck for long. Maybe she can draw, paint, write and direct but she is not a good singer or actress. And there are a lot of first time actors/actresses like Ok Joo Hyun for example in The Musical that were outstanding in their acting over “the pro” GHS. But it’s good that she has fans like you that can overlook her shortcomings.
Ahjumma, PURE 19 got one of the highest rating in Korea consistently for almost a year, THE KING AND I got highest rating too and went down when HYE SUN left the drama..She was already a SUPERSTAR when she was casted in the phenomenal BOF..TM despite being aired on a late friday night, receives good reviews from people who REALLY KNOWS A GOOD SCRIPT AND ACTING!, and one of the most viewed in the net..that wasn’t lucky..SHE’S BLESS TO HAVE SUCH MANY TALENTS..she was asked to do a drama in Taiwan with one of hottest hunks in taiwan because GOO HYE SUN was, is and will always be A SUPERSTAR in ASIA!!!!..
Makjang and Saeguk dramas will always have high ratings because they are ‘public faves’ .In a wider aspect, as general viewers Go Hye Sun hasnt been shining in terms of acting since BOF and I must say I would like her to have more of the ‘PURE 19′ tactics she had. BOF and MUSICAL had the same over the top facial expression that was annoying.
Im crossing my fingers for this drama, but its going against a SAEGUK once more >.< If it cant beat the ratings then I hope i'd see a different Go Hye Sun here
I don’t know about the King and I getting high ratings as it showed against the more popular Yi San which got the lion’s share of ratings.
my dear, I beg to disagree with you. Actually, it’s the opposite. Her luck is continously fillling up. The directors, sponsors and the commercial ads are the ones running after her. She effortlessly gets a project/cf. Have you not noticed. The fact is so obvious that the investors have great confidence in her..
I’m watching this for the story – I’ve always liked airline romances – and JJH. There’s just something about the uniforms and the romance in a plane that’s sooo romantic. Throw in JJH and I swoon. I’m still laughing at the compulsory Shower Scene. Hm I wonder where he showered – cockpit or hotel? he he He looks surly and scary in the stills…reminds me of a Mills and Boons romance I once read about an airline pilot and his rookie stewardess. The stewardess fell in love with the arrogant pilot who ignored her throughout the book and only told her he loved her and kissed her for the first time on the second last page, and proposed to her on the last page. How romantic is that???? So I’m waiting for Romance Without Any Kissing in this drama between the Cold Dashing Hero and the Bowl-haired Heroine.
Love GHS… looking forward to see her bowl-haired prettiness along with all her acting quirks that irritates the hell outta people.
Altogether now, KANGly, Kang-ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Kang ahhhhhhhhh… hahahaha…..
Good girl. I now declare you Honorary Member for Life of Redbaron airline academy of sanfrancisco. *beaming*
@kangly & YY ,it only irritates the hell outta envious people.
LOL!
So what should I do to join this academy? Scream Kang Ahhhhhhhh from the top of my lungs?
KANG AHHHHHHHHHHHH! There!
@kangly & YY
My name is GHS, I’M THE QUEEN OF WORLDDDDDD (screaming @ the top of air controller tower)
AAHHHHHHHHHH ! LOL!
I only saw a few scenes of her in BOF. Since then I have never had any interest in her other dramas. She is a stranger to me!!!
LOL!, @ NoONe she doesn’t know you too!
@choisunfan..and SHE MOST DEFINITELY DOESN’T KNOW YOU TOO!
ha ha… Actually choisunfan thinks she IS GHS or could she actually be a HE??? lol
Yeah that’s why she’s noOne! kekeke.. fits her profile.
I have to admit, these stills are kind of working. I’m slightly more interested in this drama this week than I was last week.
I kind of feel as if Moon that Embraces the Sun is going to crush all the competition. But we’ll see.
I have to say only a few in the industry would invite such trail of comments, perfectly understandable to most but the fact they keep getting more jobs is indeed only unique in South Korea.
I had really hoped she’s better in BOF..sigh!
Ohh i thought this blog would improves in the good way…emmm so wrong here..!! still rudely…still smartass, what a pity !!!
Hope you guys who bashed her nonsensely won’t get what she got from all of you.
God bless miss.Gu Hye Sun always !!!
Yes please, God bless her with more acting skills.
Yeah I’ve watched Pure 19, BOF (my 1st fave KD obsession) and saw bits of Wha’ts Up.
Heck I am not going to beat around the bush. Her acting has not changed. Her co stars from those dramas- oh yeah. Marked improvement. I am not even going to go into her hairstlye. You want a compliment? She has good skin.
The best thing I can say the stills- best clothes I’ve seen her in actually co-ordinated and attractive.
So that’s another drama I can’t watch even though I love both the 2 male leads.
Darn it
Tsk tsk, ck, it’s not What’s Up, it’s The Musical. I’m watching What’s Up, no bowl head there for sure
@YY I hope I can see your feature here , Guess you’re too perfect …
LOL!!!!!!
I am definitely watching this drama. I hope the whole drama is as good as its trailer!
And no matter what people say about GOO HYE SUN, there’s nothing that I hate about her. To each is his own.
Another DRAMA WORTH WATCHING! Despite their age difference, IT IS UNDENIABLE, GHS AND JJH DEFINITELY HAS THAT CHEMISTRY ON SCREEN!!
Yay!!! Can’t wait for TOMORROW!!
She’s Eternally Cute. Something that’s hard to find.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OGf7tTbNJc&feature=channel_video_title
I wonder, is this gonna be a profession-themed drama like j-dorama have – which means no romance or as far as you can hope between the male and female main characters are exchanging meaningful glances or just being in the same room alone. If that’s the case, GHS surely can pull the act. Yeaah… I think *themusicalinfamouslastline*
LOL :
*I think* everyone has gone crazy on that page. Let’s just wait and see…
No matter what we say haters and antis of GHS will always hate her so why waste our time convincing them..
They are just a bunch of unhappy people..we don’t need them anyway..they can watch whatever they want to watch why do we care..they are JUST insecured that the drama they like might be the loser like them..oh i even see the same person bashing on GHS EVERYTIME THERE IS AN ARTICLE about her..just don’t bother about them..let them be annoyed not them annoying us because the truth is GHS can’t be compared with any actress in KOREA ..SHE IS THE BEST..AND THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS THEY CAN’T JUST ACCEPT IT..
KEEP ON FIGHTING GHS..YOU ARE LOVE BY A LOT OF PEOPLE AND HATE BY A FEW BECAUSE THEY ARE SO ENVIOUS OF WHO YOU ARE..AJA AJA!
I’m just mildly amused by all this Sun bashing. She really must have something that they can’t have.

Just died at the cuteness of the chibi comics on that page. Understood not a word. All I saw was cute.
I think it’s amazing the way an article about her could get the amount of comments here.
Sadly, I’m still at loss why’s that for there are other actors/actresses who aren’t newbies and of course bunch of idols/actors/actresses themselves who are worst than her at acting.
So, my conclusion is that she is indeed a big star who has a power to command a huge attention desirable or not.
And I want my shower scence which necessitates acting prowers at all for my can act JJH!
CHUNDARELLA!!!!!!
Just amazing the reaction pros and cons everytime
GHS has a project. There is a saying about stones are only thrown at trees that bear a lot fruits. GHS should only worry when nobody talks about her good or bad
anymore. More power to her!!!!
So true. She sure gets a lot of interest!
I think it’s funny how die hard fans of GHS insult those of us who don’t care for her acting. We’re calling it the way see it. But it figures … her fans and her acting are the same….. immature and childish. Hey … if you can insult us we can insult you and your opinions.
MTE!
I have to agree…Everytime someone criticizes GHS work and acting, no matter how constructive it is, her fans tend to overrate their reactions.
Well then, people have their own opinions, even the greatest of the greatest have criticisms. Her fans (not judging all) just don’t know how to live with it. Tsk…
So true!
are you that skilled in the acting field? You said that her acting remained the same.. why, are you watching her dramas? Don’t watch then if her acting only annoys you.
@shinbi criticism is good alright , what is funny is that every time there is article in GHS drama here in Dramabeans same people , same comments are coming along the way..Well , sometimes it’s not healthy anymore to read same angst against HS.Well for me if I don’t like the actress/actor I don’t watch any of her Drama at all.Becoz I don’t like her it will be annoying for me to watch her drama even She/He is really good ,Hope you got my point!!!
@jasmine08, i totally got your point. But I do hope that her fans don’t attack (not sure if that’s even the right word) the person who gave opinions about GHS. They can argue their points but not to the point of calling these critics losers or whatever ill name.
But for whatever it takes, I understand this is the fandom world. So yeah, a fan gotta love what they love.
@jazmine08, I get your point as well but the answer is simple…. The drama may sound interesting so we’ll give it a try. It’s not a one woman show so it might be okay and I’m always curious to see (hoping) if she’s improved. No big mystery.
@Shinbi As I read all the comments here ,some of you called critics do calls her other names too.It’s not only her acting , it seems ‘ other *critics?as you call it ,have other problem with her too.Didn’t one of her critics calls her LESBO .In any way don’t you admit some of the critics is over exaggerated ? just saying…….
@jerq..Apparently,that comment was pointing towards her look in which in all reality she does depict it with that look (short hair). I understand her (GHS) point in keeping it that way but let’s face it, all girls who stayed on that bowl haired type of hair for a long time would look like a lesbo. In short, it doesn’t look feminine, ladylike or female at all. And that’s what the comment is about.
@Shinbi whats wrong with her look ? I don’t think she looks like a Lesbo with her short hair …I see her looks as a simple celebrity a very down to earth . Looks can be deceiving …Some may look glamorized but how about their manners , intelligence ?for me it’s more important. Being natural is the essence of a true beauty , I should say.
