Posters and teaser for Intro to Architecture

Here’s a look at the new romantic melodrama Introduction to Architecture, starring Uhm Tae-woong and Han Ga-in as first loves reunited in what will be Uhm’s gazillionth film in the past year. Seriously, the guy does not know the meaning of vacation. The story about two college sweethearts crossing paths fifteen years later features a heavy reliance on flashback/past versions of the leads, so much that Suzy (Dream High) and Lee Je-hoon (The Front Line) are touted as the stars of this movie as much as their adult counterparts are. And I have to say, the quartet looks pitch-perfect in the series of posters for the film.

The teaser shows the two kids meeting in their college Introduction to Architecture class (hence the title, natch), and sharing their first kiss. And then fifteen years later, the heroine walks into the hero’s office because she’s looking for someone to rebuild her childhood home. Conveniently, he grew up to be an architect, and once promised he’d build her a house. It’s like someone planned it! Oops, I mean… it’s Faaaate!

I think the key with this kind of movie is to stick with an understated approach to love-as-timing, because it could be really cute as long as it steers clear of the big melo pitfalls. And in general I’m just happy with this new versatility in Uhm Tae-woong’s projects, because he’s great at badass, but I like that he finally gets the chance to explore the side I saw in Cyrano.

Director Lee Yong-ju is relatively new, with an assistant director credit for Memories of Murder and then a feature of his own in 2009 called Possessed. Introduction to Architecture heads to theaters in March.

Its crazy how similar the younger actors look so similar to their older actors particularly Uhm Tae Woong and Lee Je Hoon. I'm interested in whether Suzy's acting has improved because I'm a fan of her but would love to see her develop her acting more with this role.
P.S I find it funny that both of Kim Soo Hyun co-stars are in this film :D

Rightttt?
Kim Soo Hyun's two leading ladies casted...in the same role.
I still think Kim Soo Hyun is much cuter with Suzy.

Lol....i was thinking somewhere along the same lines: "when will he ger the time to date and get settled eventually if he keeps working like this"...lol....i think 1n2d has turned us all into UTW's mommys and noonas

why does ha ga in always looks so.... hmm trying to find the right word, not bland, she's quite pretty, but maybe... expressionless?

I agree, she's almost always much too understated in her acting. Especially in certain scenes in MoonSun I always find myself wanting to pull the emotion out of her face (lol sorry, strange phrase). It's all there, just needs to be more prominent.

As much as I love UTW I'm totally out after seeing her name. She is lovely but I can not stand her acting. Maybe she'll do better in this movie (non sageuk, shorter and acting beside an older male might be a lot more comfortable for her).

HGI's face is very frozen and still. Her eyes are big but dead. She always seems distant and detached. Words come out of her mouth but she's always somewhere else. Her mouth is always open, and that, coupled with her over-big eyes, makes her seem zoned out. Like she's just going through the motions of acting and it's a bloody waste of time to get herself worked up as it's just ACTING. It's very frustrating watching her act. You just want to reach into the screen and shake her hard so you can see some emotion on that marble face. It doesn't help that her co-star is always a fine actor who's giving the performance of his life. She's like a bucket of cold water that douses the emotion of every climatic scene.

I find it amusing that baby-face Han Ga In (30/21) needs a younger counterpart when she's pretty much playing the age of it in Moon/Sun and romancing KSH (24/25)!

But I suppose that wouldn't be fair to UTW (who can't play his college self) ;)

I never found Han Ga In to be extremely beautiful like how the Korean media portrays her to be...I now change my mind. She looks gorgeous here.

I LOVE ALL THESE ACTORS. Well, first time encountering Lee Je-hoon but he looks wonderful anyways. I have such a soft spot for Suzy; she may have some trouble with the emoting, but I find her genuine.

Raaahh can't wait til I can watch this (somehow).

Heya GF and fellow Beaners.

I think Uhm knows the meaning of 'making hay while sun shines'.

I've been looking forward to this for 2 reasons-Uhm and the idea of learning about/even just looking at beautiful Korean architecture.

I like seeing Ha Ga In as an adult in the pictures above though I must say she's growing on me as Wol in The Moon That Embraces The Sun.

I don't think he'd get a nice long vacation due to 1n2d shoots (they're filmed, what, every 2/3 weeks?). I just hope he's not shooting a movie and a drama at once.

well, I read somewhere that actually suzy role is majoring in music hence the bach book.
in the trailer I think she get the wrong class and then meet lee je-hoon there. It looks like it.

Hmm..the posters tell this story to me:the younger version of the female looks naive but full of hope and youth, the male is laid-back and kind of reserved. After the separation and they meet again, the woman looks she has some years of ups and downs behind her whilst the man is still the same in person but got some experiences professionally.He is to mend the woman's heart through their new re-encounter and fulfills his promise. Can't wait.

ehh, HGI looks very pretty when she let her hair down. I mean, i think she has quite decent face in moonsun, but she totally looks very beautiful if her hair down.

i think suzy resembles more on jun ji hyun, though she did look like HGI too. and i think it would be better if they put mole on suzy's nose. that mole play quite a role on HGI's face. hehh..

I'm actually really looking forward to this. Uhm Tae-woong is awesome, Lee Je-hoon is hot, Suzy is really likeable, and I want to see how great Han Ga-in is in acting. Also the younger versions look similar to the adults so I say this is good casting.

I cannot stop gushing over the cuteness of the trailer :) It's probably due to some excellent editing skills but the chemistry between Suzy & Lee Je-Hoon seems picture perfect to me. I can't wait to watch this!
