I loved love My Love from another star, but couldn't get past episode 1 of legend, so we shall see. Hopefully this Sohn Ye-Jin's character is better written than her last and better written than Hyun Bob's last.

The premise, if done well, is right up my alley. I have mildly positive feelings towards the writer? Never completely gotten into her dramas. I did find them fun enough, just never got emotionally engaged. That said, I'm already more drawn towards this pairing than those of her previous works.

I absolutely love Son Ye-jin and I'm interested in seeing her in something light and fun after her last drama so I'll definitely at least be checking this out.

I like the pairing!

For the writter, I liked You From Another Star but not Legend of the Blue Sea, I couldn't finish it.

For the PD, I loved Life on Mars and The Good Wife! It was really great remakes.

So, someone remind me, weren’t they spotted together in LA not too long ago? This looks gorgeous. I’m in. TvN knows me.

I didn't know I needed these two together in a drama. Hopefully the story is as good as the cast.
It will be interesting (and potentially controversial) since it takes place in North Korea. I'm in. The last drama with that North-South divide that I watched was King 2 Hearts.

I am unabashedly ALL IN on this...praying to the KDrama gods that all the pieces fall into place!

yes to this!! i like all these pieces, so here's to hoping they fall together in the best way possible!

Ooh, sounds interesting! I'll definitely be keeping my eye on this.

This plot doesn't sound like my cup of tea, and the writer has me skeptical, but I do think the director is promising and I love Sohn Ye-jin! So I guess I'll at least be checking this out. I'm not touching Pretty Noona with a nine-foot pole, so hopefully this one will be a good one for her.

Not a fan of the writers. But this time the PD is solid. We will see

He played a North Korean special forces agent in the movie Confidential Assignment that was a lot of fun. He did a great job playing a stoic tough guy who tried really really hard not to get too friendly with South Korean cop Yoo Haejin (who was hilarious and lovable) and to fend off Yoona (who was all of us). So here he's going to try to resist Sohn Yejin? I'm ready.

I'm wondering if it will be their adventure to find a place for her to paraglide back to other side of DMZ. So..two people going on a quest together. As they navigate the dark forests of North Korea, fighting off wild animals, they fall in love and decided to stay in the forest and make their own tribe.

I love those two and to have them being romantically paired is a great news. But I'm torn because I'm not the biggest fan of this writer. I always found her romcom to be lacking in term of emotional beats. It just didn't grab me in the heart, no matter how hilarious yet swoony the OTP are. The only exception is The Producers which stole my heart with IU's character. So I just hope that this one will be more emotionally satisfying.

i'll die lmao i love her so much it killed me i couldnt get through pretty noona because she is a force (imo, first thing i saw her in was 'the truth beneath' and that movie is insanity about latent misogyny and motherhood etc and it's sooooooo well done) so maybe i will watch this also he's hot LOL

i know barely anything abt dprk politics (relating outside of the US...sorta) so here's hoping there's no propaganda

also idk why but i could never get into MLFAS lol

I'm swooning here imagining Hyun bin as a "tough special forces officer" who " finds himself hiding and protecting her*...so excited about this.

Scenes we can look forward to in the sweltering, sultry jungle backdrop of N Korea

1. Hyun bin stripping to his chest, lifting a fallen log out of the way, choco abs glistening with the sheen of sweat

2. Hyun bin, stripped to his waist, riding a tiger (or wild elephant)...choco abs glistening with the sheen of sweat

3. Hyun bin, bathing in a murky stream, without a stitch on, choco abs glistening in the sun

4.Hyun bin, bathing in a waterfall, without a stitch on, choco abs ( and more) glistening in the sun

5. Hyun bin, covered with mud, battling a hippo (or crocodile, (choose), choco abs caked with damp soil

I know, I read too many romances growing up.

As much as I like the premise of a cheesy bodyguard storyline and a new drama featuring a North/South Korea romance, the set-up for this is just ridiculous. It's an international crisis if a plane flies too close to the DMZ, let alone in it, so there is no way in hell someone can accidentally cross the border paragliding. They've got radars tracking that airspace 24/7 over there. This is definitely going to be a "turn off your brain and enjoy the pretty" kind of drama.

Thanks for the casting news, @tipsymocha. AsianWiki lists the drama as LOVE'S EMERGENCY LANDING, which I'll take any day over a crash landing. It sounds too much like "crash and burn," which is what too many dramas do without having a title that actively conjures it up. Not only is the description giving me flashbacks to THE KING 2HEARTS. It also reminds me of the film JOINT SECURITY AREA (2000), perhaps with a touch of WELCOME TO DONGMAKGOL, or HEAVEN'S SOLDIERS owing to the cross-border collaboration. On the other hand, I cannot image how anyone could enter that airspace without ending up like Swiss cheese, so my disbelief is already requiring suspension.

Sohn Ye-jin has been one of my favorite actresses since first seeing her in a dual role in THE CLASSIC with Cho Seung-woo and Zo In-sung. The OST is beautiful. She lost her memory in A MOMENT TO REMEMBER, and a philandering husband in APRIL SNOW. SYJ played a merchant in GREAT AMBITION with Jang Hyuk, and a bereaved mother in the memorable ALONE IN LOVE with Kam Woo-sung. She was Lee Min-ho's landlady in PERSONAL TASTE. Oh, and she swashed many a buckle in THE PIRATES. "Versatile" is an understatement.

As for Hyun Bin, I've only seen him in the drama MY NAME IS KIM SAM-SOON, and a couple of clips from SECRET GARDEN. I recently caught him in the sageuk film THE FATAL ENCOUNTER with Jo Jung-seok.

the heiress of a prominent chaebol family who somehow finds herself on the wrong side of the DMZ in a freak paragliding accident

I am thoroughly amused by this premise.

Legend (LOBSTER) left me salty af, but You From the Stars remains the only drama I have cried in whilst watching, the PD has a decent resume and if there's one good thing to come out of MOA it was me wanting Hyun Bin in an action roll... lol. Guess I got that wish.
Let's just say I'll tune in for now.

So glad the casting rumors have come true! The pretty will be blinding.

Looking forward to this pairing but even though I love both Sohn Ye Jin and Hyun Bin, if this drama sucks, it's gonna go to the discarded drama pile.

Story sounds weird but I love these 2 together.

Question, does anyone know if they've acted together before?

Dramagods answering my prayers!!!!

Months ago when I finished watching their movie The Negotiation, I silentlyToo loud tbh prayed for these two to be casted in a drama asap! My fanwall was full of prayer notes send to nowhere..

... And now HERE WE ARE!!!! I cant wait!!!! So excited.

the only drama by hyun bin that ive seen in its entirety was hyde, jekyll and me and i'm well aware that that's one of his flops while i've only seen sohn ye jin for 15 mins in her ep of master in the house. having been watching kdramas/varieties for years now, i know these two are big names! i loved the heck out of you from another star so HERE'S ME HOPING THAT THIS DRAMA IS THE ONE THAT'LL MAKE ME SEE LIKE THEM HEHE

I am here for both the leads. Love them both.
I don’t expect much from the drama but it might be fun. Especially if it’s recapped.
Would love to spazz on Bin’s dimples again :))

They both acting in same movie right? and then they became real couple. I wonder how the chemistry but I've seen 2 trailers of this and it's so cute I can't wait!
