gawd! it looks so cheap... who's the designer

I totally thought Seo Woo looked like Honey Lee. I kinda did a double take on that image.
I'm not sure how I'm gonna feel about this drama. I really don't want it to be sad or overly emotional drama. I've been in a really light-hearted drama watching mood and I'd rather not be crying for a drama like the dork I am for a while.
I'll still tune in though because I love Chun Jung Myung and Moon Geun Young.

omg i thought that was honey lee too for a second. it's definitely the haircut.

This drama is slowly turning me off more and more. I just don't like the direction it seems headed to.

I do like MGY a lot though, so I'll still tune into the first week's episodes and I hope to be pleasantly surprised.

Ah, I love Seo Woo, but she looks so plastic here. Maybe it'll change when the drama airs. She's very breathtaking.

I keep laughing everytime I look at the second to last picture. It looks like Taecyeon is dancing and CJM is like, "Put em' up boy!" hehehe~ I know it's supposed to be them fighting but I think they could have picked a better picture...

the poster reminds me a lot of the promo poster for the movie with kim bum and kim byul...and actually, instead of reminding me of honey lee, seo woo kind of looks like kim byul with that haircut

I'm also getting slowly turned off to this drama as well. Like people say, I'm really in the mood for something light and happy. And that's a snow scene right? C'mon... it's Spring already!

I'm anticipating Javabeans will be recapping the series, so I'll be reading those to get a feel for the beginning before deciding whether I want to watch or not. But I really do like Moon Geun Young. It's quite amazing to see this person from a young age and growing up. I loved her in Painter of the Wind, and thought she was absolutely brilliant.

Can't wait for the recaps!!

How old is Seo Woo supposed to be in this? She looks so young in the pictures! It might just be the hair, though.

And it just occurred to me what Cinderella's Sister reminds me of: Donna Jo Napoli's fairy-tale-twist books, the ones that show "the other side" of all the fairy tale villains...a lot of authors do fairy tale twists, but DJN was the only one to make me bawl my eyes out.

Anyway, this question has probably been answered before, but is MGY going to be an actual villain, or just misunderstood? I was never really clear about that...

Thanks for sharing! =]

Oh, and another random comment:
I wonder if there's any significance to the fact that Taecyeon's in white and CJM's in black? I'm probably just reading too much into it (just finished up an English essay lol)

Yeah, I thought that was Honey Lee for a moment and I thought, "Wait a minute, Honey Lee isn't in this drama." I don't really know what to expect from this drama and am uncertain if the media and producers are making it a bigger deal than it should be. I guess they have to though since it's following a giant like Chuno.

The fighting poster, man that just makes me laugh each and everytime. Its like "Ok guys. We get the motif here. Black White. Good, Evil."

and its just funny how they are just loked infinately in that pose. haha!

AND DONT JUDGE THE DRAMA EVEN BEFORE ITS AIRED!
(just a p.s. there)

I dislike the poster as well. For Seo Woo being the "Cinderella" she sure is played up like a trampy step-sister.

The snow scenes of course are being shot now for the 3 years later.... (I'm joking, or am I just telling the truth.) I believe the white/black clothing probably have some symbolism/reasoning to it.

I can't wait to watch this drama.. it's been a slow few weeks for me, since Pasta, SFFTS, and Smile You ended.. I have not been watching any drama.. this is only 1 of the 2 dramas I am literally counting the hours til its premiere.

any guess on which is the other drama????

is it me or does SEO WOO definately had surgery?Her face doesn't add up.

I actually like the poster and find it quite nostalgic. It reminds me of classic k-drama posters. This seems like a "Wicked" kind of plot where we see why the evil are evil.

oh, i will so be watching this for MGY and CJM!! but i am also scared about the possible angst factor that seems to be everywhere!! still, if its executed well i will probably watch it...with a box of tissues prepared.

The last two photos made me laugh. Are they supposed to be fighting? Because that's a bad shot right there. The second to the last photo especially looks like they're dancing.

Not only does Seo Woo look like Honey Lee but Taecyeon looks a little Kim Bum (the haircut and the suggestion of a dimple).

Despite MGY and CJM being in this I have not been terribly excited by the story though I would love it if I start hearing good things after it airs. I think I'm anticipating IRIS2 the most.

the last pic looks like they're dancing...lol

@ #4 Rainey,

How do you not like the direction it's heading when it hasn't officially aired yet? Isn't a little too early to pass judgement? Also, I hope people are aware that this will be a more darker and serious role for Moon Geun Young. Different from her previous characters in the past and also, this will likely have a dramatic-theme to it.

I'm waiting until official airing, but it does have a little bit of a more angsty?, less everything is cherry pie?, moody? feel to it which I am not entire against. everything has been pretty peppy so far that I have been watching (WUAS, pasta) so moody might be good.

or maybe its was just the knocking on heavens door usage in the trailer? (which I highly approve off)

Seo woo looks so PLASTIC in the poster. Either it's really BAD makeup/light or.....

i was initially really excited about this drama (mainly cuz of CJM!) but idk it seems to not be my type of thing. i hope i'm wrong though! and seriously what are the guys doing in the last picture??

@AX

Yes, it is rather early to pass judgement. At least I'm not totally dismissing it, I still plan to check it out. I have the same issue with Oh, My Lady the 9 minute trailer managed to lose all my interest. I still plan to watch both though, hoping to be wrong. It has happened many times before.

sorta, kinda sick of hearing about this drama

I'm Feeling very much excited about this drama... I'll definitely be tuning into it next week....
I'm actually excited for this..... BRING IT ON....!!!

so im confuse about who is the leading male, people keep telling me differenty guy

LOLOLLLL @ the 2nd last photo. I haven't laughed this hard in a while, and the sad thing is that I don't think they were going for 'funny' with that scene. My first thought was, "...Did they get this drama mixed up with a wuxia?"

And I'd have to agree with everyone else who has pointed out that the poster is terrible. Those are total beginner blending skills right there, and the designer didn't even bother try and fix the lighting so all 4 photos meld together. Ah, well. Moon Geun Young looks beautiful (and remarkably like Chae Jung Ahn), and Taecyeon looks cute, but that's about all I like.

Either way, I think I'd be more interested if they stopped releasing photos and posters and started releasing some more information about the cast.

yea, like alotta people i was really excited for this drama. now...not so much. it looks so angsty. on the other hand, i wasnt excited for personal taste at ALL mainly cuz i hate noona- dongsaeng pairings but after seeing the teaser images, i am freakin PUMPED for it

@1 -

thank you for saying so succinctly what i was thinking!!

it's turning out to not be what it started out as...

The poster is terrible. All 4 people has different shades and the last one is blueish - can't they get a better picture.

Don't know whether to like or not...I will watch first ep and see how it goes

I like Seo Woo with Chun.

Moon should not have a leading man here...

i can only see honey lee if i squint and turn my head a certain way.

but LOL at all these comments! idk! i'm totes excited about this! 8D

I was sooo looking forward to this.. now, I'm not!! It looks to melo and overly dramatic! I hope they prove me wrong in ep 1!!

lol i thought seo woo looked like Honey Lee for a second too ><

Oh my goodness! I can't believe that you thought she looked like Honey Lee too! That was my first thought when I saw the poster...."I didn't know Honey Lee was in this...." and then scroll down and read what you said xD.....

Teasing used to be fun but now I'm annoyed.

Uhh.. only MGY's solo poster looks nice.

But I'm still holding my hopes high for this drama. Can't wait!

I don't understand why so many are against this drama for being angsty. What's wrong with a good ol' angsty romance drama? So long as it's not full of histrionics, I think the serious tone of Cinderella's Sister will be quite refreshing. There has been plenty of light-hearted dramas as of late: Pasta, Wish Upon a Star, The Woman Who Still Wants to Marry, You're Beautiful and not to mention other upcoming rom-com, Oh My Lady, Personal Taste and Prosecutor Princess. I'm ready for something a little different . . . a la Que Sera Sera.

Sorry but Im still confused about whose actually the main character?
Hopefully it MGY, cause i really like her
but since shes a villan in this drama...

@ 11 lsk4020

HAHA, I was thinking the same thing! White Knight vs. Black Knight in the MOUNTAINS!!! Looks like the Chuno bug's bitten someone pretty hard... and I've written way too many English essays myself, was wondering about the "significance" about black and white.

Somehow I can't figure out this drama. If it's melo, what's with all the "action" scenes?

LOL Seo Woo does look like Honey Lee at certain angle in the official poster. I think they could have done better with the poster though. I am not in a hurry to watch this drama. At the moment, I am more anxious to see Personal Taste. Here is a second teaser with Eng sub:

The acting looks good! LMH is a sexy beast. *drooling*

The last two pictures are just hilarious. What was the director thinking when taking them and why do they keep promoting their drama with those pictures?

Those of you who say you're more and more turned off about this drama because of the angst factor obviously haven't been paying attention to those of us who have been saying all along that this drama will definitely be a heavy melodrama based on the fact that all of the writer's previous works have been melodramatic. Or they have been ignoring all the cues from the atmosphere of the stills that have come out and were blindly hoping it will somehow turn out to be a light-hearted romantic comedy and now they're upset because it's not what they want it to be. Don't be so upset though, you still have Personal Taste (and I'm watching both!!! :))

I normally do not watch melodramas. I hated WISFC.. but I'm definitely watching this one mainly due to the cast and because Kim Kyu-wan (writer of this drama) is better than Lee Kyung-hee (writer of WISFC) in my book (I feel Kim Kyu-wan is less far-fetched than Lee Kyung-hee in developing the stories).
