Joo-won and Kim Ah-joong’s new rom-com Catch Me

Sometimes I wonder if Joo-won cloned himself, because he’s in so many things that I often don’t know when he could’ve possibly filmed half of his projects. I had nearly forgotten about this one, a cops-and-robbers romantic comedy movie called Catch Me (previously called Only You), co-starring Kim Ah-joong (My P.S. Partner). The production released the first batch of stills, and it looks like light and fun romance with cop hijinks… which okay, is sort of like that one drama that shall not be named, but you know, better!

Joo-won stars as a detective, which is pretty familiar territory for him. His character specializes in profiling, and he takes on a case involving an infamous cat burglar. Kim Ah-joong plays his ex-girlfriend, and their sweet first love romance runs the whole gamut of embarrassing couple t-shirts and promises of forever made at Namsan Tower. Only… when they reunite much later, she’s the cat burglar he’s trying to catch. How much he knows about her and vice versa when they meet again, I don’t know. But that, I’d wager, is the fun.

Joo-won said in an interview about working with his co-star: “I learned a lot working with rom-com queen Ah-joong noona, and we had fun filming. Noona gave me lots of help, and we looked out for one another during the shoot.” Kim Ah-joong: “Joo-won-sshi has mature sides too, and he’s so tall that when I’m standing next to him, he feels like an oppa. We relied on each other without having to say the words, and I think we fit well together.”

Catch Me is gearing up for a December premiere.

I am probably down for this movie but I always hesitate with this actress. There is something about KAJ that is endearing and something about her that annoys me. I've never analyzed it, but it's there. I like Joo Won as an actor, but he's never given me tingles. However, whomever put him in that white shirt and jeans did something wonderful.

i agree and i know what it is.
i'm not trying to be mean, but i'm about to be mean. it's her face. it's too plastic. i can SEE too much of her plastic surgery in her face and it bothers me. also her fake teeth. i want to like her, i really do. but i just have a hard time getting past the face.

Required fields are marked *

I would agree that the plastic is part of it, and you may be right, it may be the really fake teeth. I'm not trying to be mean either. I find her quite engaging as an actress and enjoy her performances, but somehow something bugs the heck out of me.

0
reply

Required fields are marked *

I don't think the "plastic face" is the sole reason. For me, some people just have this something unexplainable, like a move or expression that is a bit irritating. I bet many k-actress have something "done" to their face but really not all of them are kind of ... annoying in a way... Ok,as I thought more, maybe I am too exaggerating, maybe too sensitive to this. Since she had some movies done and is still working, it means that people like her enough/ she has enough talent. Then who am I to judge, if she's doing just fine.:)

I'm a bit concerned for our JooWonie--he's working himself hard and has been for years. He looked real tired when he was filming Good Doctor and whatever 6 other things at the same time.

Now excuse me while I stare at that white shirt pic for the next few hours...

Joo Won has come a long way leaving Yoon Shi-Yoon behind when he was in fact the lead in Baker King Kim Tae Gu. I knew then he will shine never thought this impressive than Yoon Shi-Yoon. He was supposed to be the next big star.

Kim Joong Ah's nose is annoying... wish it were real perhaps will look natural and prettier.

KJA is incredibly talented, but no...let's all discuss her plastic surgery instead. What she did or didn't do to her face is her choice. The constant focus on how an actress looks next to "your oppa" is precisely why so many of them feel pressured to have work done in the first place. I would much rather focus on supporting other women than tearing them down.

I know what you mean. I'm starting to notice the amounts of negative comments even a good actress gets from DBer's around here. As long as the guy is cute, it's ok if he is the lead in another drama/movie because then we can all drool over him, but if it's a girl then everyone has to say something about how different she seems to look or her skills are subpar with their "oppa".

For example, if a guy takes on a role where he acts like a bastard, he gets praised for the acting and emotion he put into it, but if a girl has to act (excuse my language) bitchy, people start to stop seeing the character and blame the actress for her evil ways.

It's a role, they are doing what they are payed for. Not every actress should act all cute and pretty all the time. What kind of limited acting range is that? I've seen so many comments write off an actress because they don't have the ability of separating reality(actress) and the drama(character).

If an actress can make me hate her role, than I think she has succeeded in accomplishing her job if the character was meant to be hated.

I honestly could care less if a person's entire face was plastic - it's not my face! I don't have any right to judge others because in the end, all it shows is how shallow and rude and judgemental I would be. I like to treat people the way I would like to be treated, over the internet and in the real world.

I'm sorry I kinda hijacked your post. I just got a bit angry because of the negativity I've been noticing in the comments sections in some of the posts.

agree with you, i see it too, many negative comment about the actress didn't match with the actor because she's not pretty or she is old or about their plastic surgery,
for me as long as the actress can deliver the role it's fine, n for plastic surgery, that's their choice, they didn't harm other by doing that

In general, people are way harder on actresses than actors but that's part of the territory when dramas/certain movies are basically catering to the female gaze.

And I don't really see noting someone's dramatic facial alterations as a 'criticism' per se - only if you see the claim of plastic surgery as an accusation instead of an observation. Nor is it unique to actresses - I've seen people bring up actors whose looks have changed a lot over the years.

You may not like the discourse but that doesn't make it inherently inappropriate.

I'm very much with 'Feather' on this topic. As long as someone doesn't mutilate themselves to the point where they can't blink--at which point I stop watching them--their plastic surgery is no more appropriate a topic than their piercings, their dental work, their appendectomy, or their colonoscopy. It isn't any of my business, and it isn't any fun to read or talk about.

It is to the immense credit of the DB commentators that no one hangs around here who is openly PRO-plastic surgery. It makes me wonder who it is that keeps telling these people that they have to scar their facial muscles and nerves for life to look just a shade different for the cattle call.

In a visual medium like cinema, bringing in appendectomies and colonoscopies is just building a straw man.

0

@Annie: Agreed. Unlike appendectomies, colonoscopies, etc., Botox/plastic surgery can actually affect your ability to emote and/or can distract and take the viewer out of what they're watching. It is a visual medium so looks do matter. I haven't read the above comments, so I don't know what the general tone of them has been, but while "what a plastic surgery monster!" K-netizen type put-downs are nasty and unhelpful (only attacking the symptom instead of the root problem, with the singular goal of being cruel), that doesn't mean we shouldn't discuss the symptoms and criticize the whole plastic surgery/artificial perfection culture that's particularly virulent in the Korean entertainment industry. It is a shame when an actress feels the need to cut up her face or inject Botox to achieve some unrealistic societal ideal of perfection or youthfulness - especially when it potentially detracts from her expressiveness, which should be an actor's main concern - and expressing that doesn't automatically make someone a hater or their concerns inappropriate. Just my two cents. :-)

0

Annie: Note that I specifically made an exception for the surgery that actually effects the acting performance. However, unless it is obvious, as in the case of the actresses who have lost control of her facial muscles, bringing the subject into the discussion is often just an indulgence in petty gossip. The comments sections of websites that are less sophisticated than this one are rife with people gabbling about plastic surgery based on actresses--and actors--who don't happen to look like their 8th grade school photo.

And, again . . . it is a medical procedure. I don't hunt through action scenes trying to find actors who've had too many knee surgeries just to have something to say about their performance. My feeling is that the same applies to scanning close-ups looking for signs of botox. If its obvious, it's sad. If it isn't obvious, why go looking for it?

0

. . . Also, as strange as the botoxing can be in Kdramas, my creepiness meter is more set off on some of my favorite American dramas. They have a thing where they bring in older actresses that I enjoyed as a kid or on the re-run channels--Kate Jackson and Sharon Lawrence come immediately to mind--to play some character's mother or similar. And they look less like any human's mother than like wax dummies from a Hollywood museum. Part of the Hollywood culture, I suppose. But still creepy.

0

I'm sorry you are offended by plastic surgery comments, but i feel equally unsettled by overdone plastic surgery on a man as much as on a woman. it feels very "Uncanny Valley" with some actors/actresses. if they've had enough of it (plastic surgery) to be that obvious, then i'm sure they are not surprised by the comments. You have every right to be offended, and i have every right to be unsettled.

is this a valid crit of this actual thread feed? It has only a few questionable comments. You can usually tell people that are either just sharing personal taste versus someone very young fan gurling versus someone that is obviously bashing or trolling or instigating.

This actress has had a lot of work done and her face has changed over time. I think it is fairly normal for those kind of things to be pointed out sometimes. For actresses AND actors. I understand where you are coming from, because we see so many comments over time about someone not liking an actress paired with an actor, not being good enough, and a lot of time its an age thing and they crit the actresses looks-that's a whole different context than someone saying wow, hey, so and so had cosmetic work. Again. Some people find overly plastic work distracting to watch.

I love the pairing. Joo Won and Kim Ah Joong looks so good together. Love her in KBS drama Accidental Couple and her movie 200 pounds Beauty and Joo Won, I'm an AVID FAN since his Ojakgyo Brothers. Drools.

Boy can rock a late 20s early 30s police officer like a boss and adorkable and cute in 1n2d (Ahhh missed him).

I wonder what kind of vibe will he carry in his rumoured upcoming movie Fashion King, he will act as a highschool student and I read some news about the possible leading lady is FX's Sulli. Wow. Love Sulli, maybe not a good idol actress around, but she's OK.

Good luck to Joo Won and Kim Ah Joong.

His management said they are considering it but never gave an okay. So it's not yet confirmed. The Production company released an article of confirmation but soon after, JooWon's side released a statement that they were considering it but not yet decided. JooWon also on his interview said he wants to concentrate fully on the Musical...
Also, Fashion King is based on web-toon that is famous for having the most hated comments (over 100k) ever... so fans who know this are against JooWon starring in such a movie... that is unless they completely change the story and take out all the ridiculous shape-shifting CG's that they said are going to use based on the original web-toon... and script turns out exceptionally good (which we doubt).

This man is naturally blessed with a great physique. He prefers running and swimming to hitting the gym so he doesn't have those kind of rippling muscles we see in other actors. But this might change now because he said he is working out to prepare for bed scenes in his musical GHOST. I doubt he will go all out and get 6 abs but still, a slight beefing up to that godsend body is going to drive his fans nuts.
Joo Won-ah, we know you are immensely talented and don't have to rely on your good looks or a buffed body to attract viewers but Christmas is coming, I promise to be good. Pleazzzeeeeee.....
