The first teaser video is out for KBS’s upcoming Haeundae Lovers, and while it in no way diminishes my anticipation for what I hope will be a cute romantic comedy, it IS a pretty lame teaser. If only for the reason that it tells us nothing! It could just as well be a beach promo video released by a tourism board, or a Baywatch-esque opening credit sequence.
Where be the quirky setup (cop loses memory and thinks he’s a criminal) and the Kim Kang-woo and Jo Yeo-jung chemistry? ‘Cause I know that chemistry exists. Just not here.
That aside, we do have some more stills including more of the cast. For instance, Nam Gyuri (49 Days) is dressed in bridal white below, in character as the Minister of Justice’s daughter and prosecutor’s fiancée… you know, that upright prosecutor being Kim Kang-woo. Who thinks he’s a thug.
Speaking of whom, the stills below where Kim is crisp and neat in a suit and tie are how we’re used to seeing him; the muddied and disheveled ones below that promise something of an image transformation. Nothing like memory loss to facilitate some serious loss of dignity.
Haeundae Lovers also stars Jung Seok-won (Rooftop Prince), T-ara’s So-yeon, and Davichi’s Kang Min-kyung (Vampire Idol). It follows Big on Mondays and Tuesdays (with a brief break for the Olympics) and premieres on August 13.

Uh…what the heck was that?!?!?!!
same here …
me three….PS that beach is the most packed beach i have ever seen!!
That’s the lamest promo, ever!
It looks exactly like what I see on the PAC promoting Myrtle Beach – (without the alcohol umbrella drinks!).
Cynthia, it doesn’t get much worse than that! Well, maybe actually going to Myrtle Beach. Ha.
Aww… is Nam Gyuri going to be typecast into a “I Shall Never Get The Guy, Despite Wearing A Wedding Dress” role?
Still, I refuse to be turned off by the lame teaser!
Egh. Lame teaser. Wish I was in love with the leading lady. But Kim Kangwoo… Steamy.
WTF… LOL
whoever make this teaser totally drunk, or tired or just plain lazy lol
Thank you for the news!
Oh wow, that teaser …. LOL – Have no clue as to who made it but one thing is for sure, it made me cringe. The music was off putting to say the least, was half expecting the Hoff to pop out with a board.
I do have to say Nam Gyuri wedding dress is gorgeous, love the lace.
Kim Kangwoo looks freaking hot!!! Oh lord!! i think i need a refreshment!
*title*
*song about the sea*
*Images with people on the beach*
*End*
Me: WTH! God, that was lame. That absolutely told me nothing about the drama.
Love the wedding dress though in the pictures section. LACE. *.* Prettttiiieesss.
Did I spy a Hello Kitty tattoo??
The teaser is lame but oh my such gorgeous body… XD
nam gyuri is freaking white she looks like a ghost.
plus her face does not move lol.
lame promo vid despite the hot (scantily clothed) bodies…
Does the main male lead look like Kwon Sang Woo to anyone? The young version of KSW before he made it big with Stairway to Heaven?
Yeah? No? Is it just me?
I don’t know what you guys saw… All I saw were abs. More please. lol
Soyeon looks so cute in the top picture.
I spot PARK GEON IL!!!!!!! LOVE Supernova!
I said it before, I’ll say it again.. Kim Kang-woo gives me tingles in a silly place.
And if they’re gonna tease us with a beach video, does that mean we’re gonna get lotsa topless Kim Kang-woo. That I’d watch all day, quirky plot or dialogue be damned.
Are they telling us to watch the show or go vacation at the show’s location??? o.O
GOD. SO. VERY. LAME.
Lead is suppose to be a gangster daughter? But is it me or did I spy Daddy Gangster with Hello Kitty tattoo and pink lace apron… They are aiming for comedy here?
Kim Kang Woo, I still have not recover from your confusing character from the movie version of A Better Tomorrow… but man… you look cute in this!
thanks jb,
the wedding dress looks like curtain lace.
That didn’t look like any Kdrama footage I’ve ever seen. Too much bare skin. Are you sure it isn’t from a cable tourist documentary that the network bought because it was too cheap to shoot its own footage?
It’s a freakin beach promo…
Surely they were just trolling us with this teaser right?….
what kind of drama teaser is this?
I thought it’s a BEACH TOURISM COMMERCIAL.
somehow reminds me of saved by the bell
It’s the music…
I think this is a small part of a teaser that makes sense.
I’m very much into the male lead in this one!
Wow.Give us some waves and we could be at Bondi Beach or actually it’s as crowded as the French Riviera .Not a Korean drama though.Lol.
Looks like the sequel to “Walking Dead”: “Walking Abs”.
This wil face against LMH’s Faith?
whoever made that promo video must have a brain fetus fever…. it’s the current epidemic in kdrama-lalalalaland
Are they for real? Where on earth you can call this bullsh*t teaser? Aish, now I’m worried. KKW can’t chose wrong, not him!
I watched this again. Feeling like Pat Sajak is telling me I just won a trip on Wheel of Fortune. All expenses paid!
LOL what the heck? Is that a teaser for the drama or a commercial for that beach?
Feeling sorry for the fiancee already. Nam Gyuri is like a real life doll, so pretty.
