I Am Legend begins filming, releases first stills

SBS’s I Am Legend will be premiering in a few weeks, and began filming on July 9. Here is lead actress Kim Jung-eun in the first stills released from the production, playing the “Jeon Seol-hee” who leaves her society-wife identity behind after a divorce to front a rock band.

These photos picture her in the early part of the drama, when her character is the put-upon wife of a prestigious lawyer. Jeon Seol-hee was once the popular singer in a band when she was in high school, but over the course of her unhappy marriage, she has learned to speak quietly and act in a manner befitting her uppity in-law family.

Also cast are Jang Shin-young, Hong Ji-min, and Juni as the other members of the band. Jang Young-nam (Dal Ja’s Spring, Level 7 Civil Servant) plays her ex-husband’s new girlfriend, and Lee Jun-hyuk (Three Brothers) has also taken a leading role.

I presume that leading man Lee Jun-hyuk, playing a divorced man, will be Kim’s new honey. This article says he and Jang Young-nam are spouses (who, I assume, then divorce). So… the men swap wives?

I Am Legend follows Coffee House. The first episode will air on August 2.

I will probably be stunned if her upcoming stills with the rock band's image come out. I still can't imagine her that way. In a good reason, yes.

If "I Am Legend" begins on the 2nd of August and it follows Coffee House--does that mean some kind of extension has been made for Coffee House?

^Thanks for bringing that up~! I'm wondering also what episode will CH end. If I Am Legend were to start on the 2nd, then CH has 18 episodes or a 2-episode-special drama in between? I did search a little and saw that CH will end in 20. But still not confirmed. I'm still wondering really. @_@

Woohoo! I'm really looking forward to this drama! The premise of it sounds really interesting! :) Plus I would really like to see how Kim Jung Eun pull of the rockstar image! And hopefully there would be great chemistry with Lee Jun Hyuk!!

I LOVE the storyline already.

Despite being somewhat allergic to Kim Jung-eun's sometimes OTT-ness ( only occurs early in the drama - jarring behavior in Lovers in Paris, Lovers come to mind) ...... she's ok once she settles down and really gets into the plot.
And I liked her a lot in AAEve.

Planning to be on board for this one.

@cathy, Kim Jung-eun did get a lot of surgeries. To be honest, I liked her better as an actress before her surgeries (facial expressions were better).

I'm still interested in the plot but hope that the men don't end up swapping wives. That's just a bit much, in my opinion.

Can't stand her in Lovers in Paris, but I really want to keep an open mind about this one. From the premises I get the idea of an upgraded version of You're Beautiful - but this one is geared toward more mature audiences. I think I should take out my Lovers in Paris DVD and try to finish it for once.

Kim Jung Eun as a rock band singer.. pretty interesting! She does have the vocals cince she sang a few songs before for her drama (lovers in paris) and OST for MNIKSS.

I know there is no use in crying over spilled milk.. but I am more psyched up over this drama when Kim Sun Ah was the lead actress.

@12 xiaoSxin,

Kim Jung Eun sang a few songs for the MNIKSS OST? Will definitely check it out.

I think I Am Legend is pretty interesting.

I like KJE so I will watch the drama. And I also like Lee Hyun Hyuk and it will be interesting to see them together. Aside from being a good friend of Kim Sun-Ah, she is a good actress too. I suppose this is the story of a jilted wife who is victorious at the end. Good.

I might have watched when Kim Sun-ah was the lead but with this actress I think I will pass.

Why did Kim Sun Ah pass on this one! She would have been awesome in it!!! Not that Kim Jung Eun wont do the part justice. Sun Ah just seems so much more suited for the role!!!

I've never seen her in any of her previous projects, but this one? I'm definitively watching it because of Lee Jun-hyuk (main lead, YES!), need I say more? I'm still not sold on the premise of the drama, but whatever, it's not like I watch dramas for the plot. Heh. ^^

if u hvnt seen her in sunflower - one of ahn jae wook's drama series, you won't recognize her & they shaved off her hair too. i think she really looked diff. from yrs ago & i read she admits of having something done with her nose i guess or ??? something else. i liked her though in lovers in paris! i think she's got good acting skills, i wld be interested in seeing this drama too!

I do hope this is fun too...Looks like it...Anyway, life after CH wouldn't be too bland after all if that's the case...

I love KJE...she's funny and pretty and she could very well deliver the role of someone dumped...(after all, experience is the best teacher) OUCH!!!

Peace....
