Lead couple cozies up in Personal Taste
by javabeans
How cute are they?
Lee Min-ho and Sohn Ye-jin sure are looking sweet and cozy in these latest images from MBC’s upcoming romantic comedy series Personal Taste. These photos are taken from the shooting location at Kyunggi-do’s “Petite France” (which used to be the shooting grounds for Beethoven Virus) and are described as a “date,” but we know there’s got to be a catch since her Kae-in character believes his Jin-ho is gay. As soon as filming began, spectators recognized the couple, then gathered around and cheered in excitement.
The drama began its first shoots on February 28 following an overnight retreat attended by the main cast and production team as a working trip and bonding event. (Attendees: Sohn Ye-jin and Lee Min-ho, of course, as well as Kim Ji-suk, Wang Ji-hye, Jung Sung-hwa, and the rest.) On February 24, the group shot the drama’s titles in the morning and then headed to Pocheon by dinnertime. Afterward, the actors, director, and writer gathered round for a script discussion and rehearsal. Following that, the participants loosened up the atmosphere with some drinks and levity late into the night. (Lee Min-ho is reportedly a weak drinker, but stuck around through the end.)
And the excitement just keeps growing…

LMH has a bigger upper body than lower (did anyone else notice his nice legs in BOF?) and those pants don't really help... I'm going to sound like a freak here, but I distinctly remember the scene in BOF outside of the school pool where he was wearing these white shorts and I couldn't help but notice how nice his legs looked in them... I don't have a leg fetish alright?!?! It's just that it's rare to see men with nice legs... hehehehe~ :) I'm going to shut up now.

I like those kind of umbrellas, as in BOF when Jan-di used her own umbrella to protect Ji-hoo's violin from the wet snow, are too cute.
I'm getting tired of seeing those (snag run accent) whatchamacallit (guy) sweaters; I do get fashion nightmares from all those You're Beautiful moments. I keep telling myself, "yikes, it'll pass and will soon be all over." The average person who has any snagged sweaters now can reform their sweaters to this short trend.
These two have really bright smiles, and I simply love that.

Actually if you live around new york these "short pants" are kind of in style. And its not that they are short, Min Ho is just not wearing socks.

I will watch just to see Lee Min Ho!!!!!
I wish he'd get together in real life w/ Gu Hye Sun. But she's so uptight; she needs to loosen up a bit.

I know that Lee MinHo enjoys great popularity outside of Korea because of his breakthrough role in Boys over Flowers and Son Yeh-Jin is enormously famous in Korea because of her movie star status. But does Son Yeh-Jin also have that height of popularity outside of Korea?

#28 peachy2sleep: I think so, because she's part of the Hallyu wave (but don't listen to me, I'm not Korean).
#3 moonriver: They really do have chemistry, which is what a rom-com show needs. As for the age gap, that was the plan because as JB says, there is an age gap between them. So good to know that people can notice it (I can't, because I've already known these two actors before this. but pfft, who am I kidding? who doesn't know Lee Min Ho and Son Ye Jin?)
JB: If you keep posting news about this drama, it'll make me more excited. And when I do get excited, the expectations keep growing, and anticipation keeps rising. But dayum, I cannot wait for this show.

@31 I totally agree! I'd like to fast forward to when this trend dies a horrid death so we can go back to normal-ness. :(!
And yea what is up with the sweater?! Why do people even pay for clothes with holes in them?!
But they do look cute! Another light drama to brighten my day and keep me away from the books!

another hottie in not so hot short pants, SIG pulls it off better...but this trend needs to be banned from its existence...#34, i agree, it deserves the most horrible death possible.
and the babie blue stripey cardigan is gross..it doesn't even make him look gay, he look like a grandmama that just got mawled by racoon.
SYJ style is not any better.
PT stylist has horrible taste, the only cute thing from the pics are the red umbrella and the couple chemistry.

Oh my... I like the last picture. Well, personally I don't really like the big age gap difference relationship thing. I only can tolerate it for no longer than -/+ 6-8 years difference. Unless they're already in their 40/50s, that hardly matter anymore.
And yes, they both look so cute. I don't think I can see their age gap difference though. All I see is like they're like enjoying their companion a lot. I'm so excited for this drama. 4 more weeks. That's so damn long...*sigh*

'Seen All her projects & she’s never chosen a bad role!!! '
Ditto - of all the SYJ dramas and movies that I've seen. She has always managed to pick up role that is interesting and she can deliver, including the underrated Spotlight which I truly enjoy despite the lack of a romance (which I fully understand to be a BIG disappointment for SYJ and JJH fans).
Really, really looking forward to this one.

I think the shorter slacks are a rerun trend. My mother couldn't stand it 10-15 years ago when I visited home with a pair. "They're too short!" But I can't remember if guys were wearing them back then. My brother keeps telling me that "proper" slacks should have a "break" at the front of your shoe -- I forget how many inches he said -- so he must be seeing them on the college kids (he works at a university). The only trend I'm sick of is all the scarfs.

Actually kinda remind me of Carrie & Stanford and except that Sohn Ye Jin character is not a sex columnist and Standford is actually really gay...
But I love girls with gay bff stories... always awesome... can't wait to see this and they are so cute!
I think short/shrunken pants lenght trend is here to stay...
