Ji Chang-wook offered lead in rom-com thriller Beware This Woman
by javabeans
Beware This Woman, the new SBS drama that currently has an offer out to Lee Sung-kyung (Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-ju), is courting Ji Chang-wook (The K2) to be its leading man. This might be our last time getting to see him before he heads off for his two years of mandatory military service, so I’d be all for him taking the role.
Beware This Woman will be a mixed-genre series, combining elements of romantic comedy with thriller and legal drama, which is a mix I can easily envision given this writer’s previous drama, I Remember You, which had an interestingly offbeat tone that was both funny and chilling. I also see some similarities in the description of Beware This Woman as a cat-and-mouse, chase-and-be-chased thriller involving an amnesiac killer whose memory loss causes a crucial moment to keep repeating in an endless loop. He/she is out to kill our two leads, who end up relying on each other throughout their ordeal (which also involves “very funny rom-com” elements).
I hope the two leads mesh well here, with Ji Chang-wook up to play Noh Ji-wook, a prosecutor in the Central District Prosecutors’ Office who ends up switching professions to private attorney, somewhat unexpectedly. He possesses a wide range of talents, whether it’s music or athletics or writing, and also harbors trauma stemming from an event in his childhood involving his parents and first love. Lee Sung-kyung’s potential character is Eun Bong-hee, a prosecutor trainee who was a Taekwondo athlete in her youth who’s tougher than she looks.
I know it sounds like tonal hodgepodge, but I’m really hanging a lot of hopes on the I Remember You connection, because that drama mixed its genres skillfully and was heartbreaking and heartwarming to boot. Although it didn’t fare well in the ratings, it was well-loved as a small cult show; if this drama ends up like that one, I’d consider it a positive thing. Beware This Woman is scheduled to follow Saimdang, Light’s Diary, SBS’s current Wednesday-Thursday drama, and will premiere in May.

I don't think I've ever seen Ji Chang-wook in a straight-up rom-com. I hope he doesn't get any action scenes in this drama, poor child needs to rest from all the stunts. I LOVE Lee Sung-kyung. Beautiful, funny, fabulous and a pretty decent actress. I look forward to their chemistry.

Since we have a taekwondo athlete as a heroine, this is the perfect opportunity to redefine his image with a beta-male character a la Park Bong Soo. Definitely time for him to do away with the heavy action and bring on the comedy! Leave the stunts to her!

I am all for this pairing but can we get less legal dramas. The current batch doesn't interest me at all and the next one too and the next too because we have mostky legal or other workplace dramas lined up and a few sageuks which I already don't watch.
But besides my own choice of not watching legal dramas, we are getting a lot of these which leaves less optionsand monotony.

I am on the opposite, I like legal/crime thriller /workplace and sageuk so I am watching mostly of the current and will do the same in the upcoming drama too.
However it wil be great if there is great romcom as an option to watch - so there are Strong Woman Do Bong Soon (but also had some crime, mystery aspect lol). Even the other currently airing romcom like Introvert Boss and Perfect Wife are having some mystery element. The Liar and His Lover will start in few weeks, maybe it will suit your taste.

I didn't think I liked workplace comedies until I watched Ms. T&NJG.Now I want to watch more!
Romcom thrillers are a match made in heaven for me like IHYV, CITT( that one's a little more complicated) etc.
I don't think I'm overly fond of legal thrillers ( although I enjoyed Punch a lot).

As a lawyer myself, I have mixed feelings towards legal dramas. On the one hand, the plot can be pretty interesting (such as Lee Bo Young and Lee Jong Suk 'I Hear Your Voice') but on the other, the procedure and law is just ridiculous (such as Lee Bo Young and Lee Jong Suk 'I Hear Your Voice'). I don't know whether to enjoy it or to scorn at it >_<
I definitely Korean and Japanese legal dramas more watchable than American ones though. Suits is so ridiculous I wanted to throw my laptop out the window at one point.

Fellow Legal Beagle here! I could never watch the American blockbusters of the day, like "L.A. Law" and "Ally McBeal," as I would constantly be throwing things at my television screaming THAT'S NOT HOW YOU OBJECT TO INADMISSABLE EVIDENCE, yadda yadda yadda. *sigh*
Knowing as much as I do about International Law, Korean legal dramas tend to veer off into those WTF plots that have no relation to real life scenarios, but I much prefer the Japanese bengoshi dramas as they pretty much stick to the facts of legal procedures.
Regardless, this is the Last Gasp before Military for My Previous. It ticks all the boxes he checked in what Wook wanted for his next drama. And ticked one of mine because HE'S FINALLY PLAYING A LAWYER!!! *squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*

LOL corporate thingy could be some boring plot I guess and viewers may hard to understand. Criminal law is much more interesting to watch.
A drama which actually deal with corporate matters is Empire of Gold- the plot has on restructuring of companies, corporate take over etc. But it is not some legal drama, more on fights on the company in chaebol family. But it is well made, imo.

A share purchase agreement? That could happen.
Ji Chang Wook, for instance, is a young lawyer rising quickly through the ranks of one of the firms in the Magic Circle. He successfully negotiates a difficult share purchase agreement and is praised and recognized by his superiors.
He returns home after midnight, only to find the house empty and cold, the lights off. His wife has left him for another man...

Whilst all this is happening, some evil partners are scheming to force a merger between the law firm and to keep their drawings, they decide to get rid of the back-room staff and force the paralegals to do triple the work on zero-hour contracts.
Then the "Roll On Friday" website gets involved with a plucky reporter exposing the truth behind the evil law firm and the law firm gets awarded the "Golden Turd Award 2017".

I don't get why Korean writers insist on making SO MUCH legal dramas, without consulting with lawyers.
Normally layered characters are enough for me, but in these case plot holes/lazy writing just hurts my head. I remember how much I wanted to watch Remember (Yoo Seung Ho's drama), but even a good cast didn't stop me from disliking it.

At least Korean drama is much better than in my country. The drama we always have is hundred times ridiculous. The job like CEO, lawyer, doctor is just a JOB. CEO in the drama becomes the most person with no-work in the co. All drama are all about love and cheesiness, and have family interference. Even Korean weekend drama is better lol.

I do think she kind of overacts sometimes especially on romcom role, and need to adapt with her acting in such roles.

I think acting style is quite a matter of personal taste. I don't like over-acting much either but LSK does this style really well imo and it does fit her characters. Like she made me really believe that characters like Baek In Ha and Kim Bok Joo do exist and like to overact in real life as real people (!)
So unlike you, Seo-woo is my least favorite character that LSK ever played. I found her much less charismatic in that role than when playing In Ha or Bok Joo.

Yes, that's the one!
I was wondering if I remembered wrongly that he was named in another drama.
Eh...I think I'd rather he takes this. Although I agree with javabeans that this story sounds like a tonal hodgepodge and I'm actually quite tired of legal/thriller dramas, I think Ji Chang Wook is better suited for comedy and romance. I find him fun to watch in these genres and there are better actors to do melo or angsty.
I am quite excited to see how this pairing works. Visually it's all good although LSK is quite tall while JCW isn't. But that makes it more fun, isn't it? Why must the guy always tower over the girl?

If you want taller than her, I think you have to go for Nam Joo Hyuk, haha!! :D
Hope JCW takes the role, there are very few actors that I can imagine making a better pairing with LSK...I love both of them and my bet is that the chemistry will be awesome. JCW always nails characters that love a strong woman (Empress Ki, Healer); he portrays so well the longing, the admiration and desire that the situation involves, making you believe that he fell head over heels for her... And LSK can definitely play her part as the prosecutor-athlete :D Awwww, I want them back in my screen already, fingers crossed that the story is good.

He really doesn't need to be taller than her. I hope this won't stop her from wearing heels in the drama. Elsewhere, I was reading crazy comments about switching LSK to a shorter actress just so that JCW can look taller! Why is that even necessary? So by the same token, it's fine that JCW isn't tall like Nam Joo Hyuk. Lee Sung Kyung and Nam Joo Hyuk will forever be one of the dearest OTP to me but I'm not one of those who refuse to see them paired with others.

Supposedly start the shooting on March. but seems like everything yet to be finalised. But maybe I prefer JCW in romcom. Happirst Time of My Life sound quite interesting, melodrama and looks like slice of life drama. I hope this drama still happen though. The writer is my favourite.

I was just thinking about the Healer days. Longing for them, actually. I just love that collective SQUEE feeling that was all over the site! And even the people who tried to be downers and be like, "This drama isn't that good, you guys are overreacting!" just got totally drowned out and no one cared about negative comments because the frenzy was so strong.
No drama has elicited such a reaction on this site since. Some like Moon Lovers had a lot of discussion but it was always a very critical assessment. With Healer everyone just let loose with their adoration for the show. Similar to City Hunter and King2Hearts... I guess us Beanies and our Overlords like a good action/thriller/rom-com?
When will such a frenzy hit DB again!?

I have always loved Ji Chang Wook and Lee Sung Kyung earned my love and respect by slowly working her way up with improvement in her skills in each step and Bok Ju was a joy to watch. I look forward to this. K2 didn't do much for me, it was too convoluted yet had thin content and as much as I liked the thought of Yoona-JCW on paper and visually, I was underwhelmed by the results on screen. So, I know theoretical expectations on paper hardly means solid translation on screen but I really still have high hopes for the pair and the writer involved. Fongers crossed for this.

I feel like the key to good chemistry is acting styles - based on that, I think Lee Sung-kyung's stronger screen presence/acting style will be a much better match for JCW than Yoona was.

Oh you are right. I think Yoona was never really had the chemistry with her co-stars in the past, as I recall she was also lack of chemistry with Lee Bum Soo - maybe the reason because the age gap but some actressess will work great even the co star is lot older. Anyway she really need it in her upcoming drama - not only for one but for two male leads. It will be bothersome if she lacks the chemistry with both especially since she is described to play Scarlet O'hara of Goryeo.

Weird as it sounds but I actually though Yoo Na has far better chemistry with Lee Beom Su. They both looked like they were in love with each other genuinely and given the setup, where he was a worldly man twice her age and she was the polar opposite of him, the level of ease their dynamic was expressing was quiet baffling to me. But in retrospect, I think it had to do more with Lee Beom Su than Yoo Na. But I still think she can do better than most given the right roles, K2's anna just wasn't the role for her.

He generally has good chemistry with noonas, as you pointed out, Ha Ji Won, Park Min Young, Song Yoon Ah, even older actresses who play as her mother like Do Ji Won and Chae Si Ra. But he has good rapport too with younger ones, like Baek Jin Hee, Park Bo Young in a short MV, or Shim Eun Kyung in his latest movies.

I am sure he'll be fine in a legal drama, but i wish JCW'd play in a saeguk again. When the drama comes out i am afraid we'll be already on overdose with the legal procedure by then.
Also he did a really good job in Empress Ki as a powerless and lovesick emperor. He and HJW rocked it and the setting was very pretty... all those shiny swords and costumes vs the legal dramas which sometimes look bleak or dark, to the point that you cannot make up who's on screen.

Because for the chemistry to be called good, both actors should know how to act. In K2, he had chemistry with song yoonah who was the powerhouse of the show but, sadly, he was paired with yoona. Everyone shipped SYA x JCW, why? Because their acting was balanced not like one is good and the other is bad.

@MIKAN because you did not watch K2... and i did both Healer and K2 and many of his past drama including the Five Fingers which he played villains... okay, K2 is nowhere near Healer.. to date there is none that can rival Healer... to some here, none can rival EmpressK.... but definitely K2 is neither second to H nor second to EK.... hahah. this is judged from experienced in watching him while not liking him till Healer... i was surprised that i did watched all his dramas even those Bachelor Veg-Boys, Warrirors.... only the very early ones like "Brothers something'i didnt managed to watch....
so judged from experienced not from tinted glass, he is not what you said about Emoting Actor, esp of late. its just the roles thrown at him, and he 'unwittingly' took up sort of stereotype him as just an action-rom star.

I think one can be a good actor but not excel at having great chemistry with his co-star. The reverse is also true. An actor can have great chemistry with his co-star but is not that good an actor in other aspects.
I don't think Ji Chang Wook is a very good actor but he is not that bad. Like most actors, he will do well if he is cast in a suitable role. At this point, I don't think he is ready for roles which requires him to play a character very different from his own or one which is very intense. This is why I think this role if the drama sticks more to romance and comedy will suit him. He seems to be quite a funny and a dork in real person plus I think romance is probably one of his strengths. I thought his chemistry with Park Min Young was the best thing in Healer. The rest of the show was pretty meh.
K2 was just simply badly written and directed. Only a strong actor like Song Yoon Ah can overcome the script. I've read that she was blamed instead of making her role more than what it should be. People like JCW and Yoona weren't at that level to do what she did, therefore their characters were terribly bland. By the way, K2 isn't Healer 2.0. If it was anything like it, I am sure fans will be screaming bloody murder.

I am learning that fans will go to extremes to ship their OTPs but what disgusted me was the PD and team. While I understand that acting or conveying emotions which are not called for in a script is as bad as under playing them, I don't think SYA was at fault here.
PD could be hampered by the writing but from the way he directed the scenes, he wasn't much better himself. If he understood how to lead JCW and Yoona to get into their characters and how to do lovey dovey scenes right, they might be more palatable. Instead, a few stood out to be the most awful cheesy love scenes.

I don't think the romance in I Remember You was supposed to be anything but lowkey.
It was never written as some burst of feelings, violin revelation of love or something. The reason why you felt it was underwhelming was because it was never the priority. I'll always remember that staircase scene where they maturely acknowledged their feelings but admitted it was so not the time for twu wuv( in Rumpelstiltskin voice).
Everything was understated I loved it!

The show prized partnership over romance. It was about partners learning to trust each other and romantic attraction growing as result rather than an OTP coming together and learning to trust each other as partners. I don't know if I'm explaining myself well but I mean to say that romance was just a bonus, not an end goal.

JCW's real height is 180 cm. I think they measure his height during a fan meeting ( birthday celebration) in Korea. JCW never took a role as a lawyer before, so it's interesting to see him in such role. The writer of this drama must have a secret love for JCW already. The name of the male lead character is Noh Ji Wook. That's cute! I'm very excite to see him again on screen in the next 2 months!

I thk they said Ji Chang Wook confirmed this. I thk i would wanna him to have a real hit before enlisting. K2 was pretty forgettable for me.
I remember you was a drama i really enjoy. It had morw of thriller than rom com though. This drama is more rom com? Im still nicely suprised by writer of Strong woman do bong soon whose previous work was d rather dramatic n poignant My love Eundong. So i thk writers hav d capability to exceed themselves n surprise us.
Never thought of a LSK JCW pairing.. Lets see if it works

I like the story of weightlifting, but she's overreacting there (mostly)... Her eyes, keeps moving a lot, very unnatural.. But off cam, I like her, pretty decent and talented. Her sharp lips and raising eyebrows still reminds me of her, her "bitchy" roles... hahaha... But if she could act naturally opposite JCW, maybe this will be good... It seems that this will have a Sensory Couple vibe...
nevertheless, I can tell, Healer would still remains outstanding...

overacting? she was so tone as Bokju. Let me know if Yoona can pull off Bokju and Inha at the same pace that LSK can pull it off. Bokju was lovely, and she is Bokju, with moving eyes and pout.The fact that she is consistent says a lot, I fell in inlove with Bokjo and Im sure a lot of beanies (and international fans) did too. No offense to JCW but K2 is not even in the list of Kdramas that was bought by our country. Boku is famous here, not even Legend or Goblin.

I'M SOOOO SOSOSO EXCITED FOR THIS. BIIIG HEALER FAN HERE.
I couldn't get into K-2 and i've always wanted to see ji chang wook in another lead role in the romance genre specifically, as he's mentioned he wanted to play a role other than in super action dramas. oh my oh my and of course i love lee sungkyung after WFKBJ. I cannot wait for this!! I'm hoping for another sizzling crack romance. I have seen healer maybe 3 times now, I just can't get over it

Yippee, this is good news to all of us JCW fans...I will welcome anything from him especially this one as this is rom-com and with LSK. I hope this will be a big hit before he enlists. They are a good-pairing, they will have a good chemistry, they act good as well.
Whatever happens to his "The Happiest Times of my Life?" I hope it was not yet shelved, since I am also excited for that. I read that's a pre-produced drama (though I have not read any update yet as of now)
Fighting JCW!

I hope this pushes through. I really love Lee Sung Kyung. If Ji Chang Wook won't accept this, the leading man should be Lee Jong Seok. Lolz!
