Time Slip Dr. Jin starts shooting
by girlfriday
Here’s our first look at stills from the set of Song Seung-heon‘s new drama, Time Slip Dr. Jin. The shots are of Song and his leading lady Park Min-young in their snazzy white lab coats, from the present-day part of the show — there’s no evidence of time-slipping yet. But cameras are rolling, which given the drama on this drama, is a small miracle in and of itself.
Song Seung-heon plays the time-traveling Dr. Jin, who somehow lands himself in 1860 and puts his genius medical skills to use there. Park Min-young plays two different characters, one in each era, so perhaps she’s a petrova doppelganger. Or something. Also, Lee So-yeon (My Love By My Side, pictured below) has since joined the cast as the mysterious gisaeng with visions of the past and the future.
Do you ever wonder how time-skipping characters in dramas give up on the whole notion of getting back to their original era so damn quickly? It’s like I’m WHERE? Oh… 300 hundred years in the future? Guess I’ll go get a job and a mortgage then. I’m also curious about the traveling backwards details, like hair. Forward-travelers cut their manes of glory, but you can’t super-grow one if you travel backwards. Do they make topknot toupees? Will he just always wear a hat, even in his oops-I-walked-in-on-your-shower scenes? What, like you weren’t wondering.
Time Slip Dr. Jin premieres May 26 on MBC.

Lee So yeon is so pretty and she acts really well in DONGYI. She's actually better than Han Hyojoo. I should watch this one since she's playing a protagonist...

I like her too. She's a good actress. Better than some of the female leads where she's co-staring. If PMY doesn't careful she can steal the limelight instead.
LSY's playing protagonist ? just try "My Love By My Side"

I like PMY. I don't have a problem with her acting. I've seen worse acting than hers that has gotten a lot of praise. I think it may just be on whether she fits the character and is able to portray it well enough. And so far, the dramas I've seen her in she's done that.

I don't like Park Min-young I think she's so stiff and her acting really lacks .. I might eevn consider not watchinng this because of her can't bother with stiff acting

LSY did one of the better acting jobs in "Dong Yi" (which wasn't hard to do) but she did engage in overacting a bit at times.
The actress who stood out for me in DY (despite her relatively limited screen time) was Park Ha sun as Queen Inhyeon (simply radiant and did a lot w/ what was a pretty limited role as the reserved Queen; I was shocked at how young PHS was since she brought a lot of maturity to the role).
Also liked Jung Yumi a lot (like it so much better when she isn't playing the evil one).
While I like HHJ, she started to annoy me in DY w/ her repeated use of certain mannerisms which I blame the PD for (it was the same mannerisms used by Kim Yoo jung who played the young DY, which is why I didn't exactly have the greatest impression of KYJ's acting abilities until she impressed me in TMTETS).

When shahirashera said "I blame the Japanese version for my high expectation", I think in the traditional sense of the statement, she/he meant that she/he enjoyed the j-version so much that there's high expectations for this drama to live up to. I can't say the same thought because JIN is still on my list of dramas to watch, but I've heard many good things about it.

I just read somewhere that PMY is playing SSH's modern day girlfriend & the other is a Joseon young lady from a well-to-do family; not his sister. He's already done that drama (autumn fairytale). I hope that's right... Dramabeans can you check to make sure that's correct or not?

SSH look his age, in fact, good at this age of his. He is definitely a handsome man and no doubt about it. Those who met him personally will not deny that. But, yet of course they are some people who would prefer young pretty "man-made" faces than a mature naturally good looking sexy man.

Actually I was hoping that KSY will really join the gang but I guess that lee so yeon is not that bad.I must add that I don't like PMY very much. Seeing her reminds me of those idols turned actors like SNSD's yuri, Jessica n yoona. Their acting is so bad. But I'll definitely watch this cuz song seung hun n jj's acting is quite good.

Will THT be better this time around? Did he really take his sunbae's, Lee Soon Jae's, advice and learn more about his craft since My Princess?
(Not the "look sexy and hold this pizza" craft - he has that one nailed)
Will we see a thinking, feeling Dr. Jin?
I hope so! No matter how it is, I will be watching.

The answers to your questions:

A: I hear he's upping his craft by including some awesome never-before-seen stunts like thundering at breakneck speed through the mighty jungles of Ancient Korea astride a crazed black boar clad only in a towel (him, not the boar).
2. Did he really take his sunbae’s, Lee Soon Jae’s, advice and learn more about his craft since My Princess?
A: Uh...no. Sorry.
3.Will we see a thinking, feeling Dr. Jin?
A: Thinking, feeling...um, tall order....can we substitute those with a SHOWERING Dr. Jin instead?

i think theere was a mistake in the earlier synopsis where they said Min-Young was playing the lead role and also Seung-Heon's sister role. The news are now saying she's playing the role of a surgeon who works in the same hospital as Seung-Heon just like Miki in the J-drama version.

May 1, 2012 at 6:11 AM
ok... i am glad that she is not the sister than love.. i was so upset when i saw that synopsis... so PMY is Miki in the present and suki in the past... this version still mess up my brain... i love j-version.. so i am really iffy on this version... but other than that.. i love the stills.. both look good... of course i will be happy to have KSY.. but LSY is actually a very good actress... so i am happy about this casting...

May 1, 2012 at 1:00 PM
yeah i think they're gonna combine both Miki and Saki's characters so that they can have the typical k-drama female lead to emphasize the "fate-link". I Think the japanese version was better because both Miki and Saki's characters were equally important to Jin.

Haven't watched anything w/ PMY so can't comment on her acting, but while PMY may be pretty in the generic kind of way, she's not really striking enough to stand out (at least for me).
Kim Tae hee wasn't exactly known for her acting (until her winning performance in "My Princess"), but despite that KTH immediately stood out.

Watched the first and the second season too. To a certain rate, I'm not sure if the korean version can live up to the japanese one. The soundtrack for JIN still raise my bumps when I hear it, gets me all emotional :'( I'm confused how they set up PMY and LSY's character. If LSY is the gisaeng then she should be the one in the future as SSH's lover. Oh well, they'll probably change the drama a little I guess. For the better I hope...

they did mess around with the characters in this version... in the j-version.. miki and suki are both 1st lead in my opinion... but for this version obviously they make it clear the 1st and 2nd lead... so PMY is miki in the present and suki in the past... if i do watch decide to watch this drama.. it's probably better off for me to view it as not a remake.. but a totally new story.. it's gonna be hard for me.. cos the original.. both seasons are all kind of awesome.

Out of the two main leads, Kim So-Yeon made the far more favorable impression. She hasn’t had a lot of work on the big screen so far, which works in her favor, and she also possesses an exotic look that brings her character to life.

If PMY is a so-so actress then does it mean.. that it just turned out she was really clever in choosing projects like SKKS and CITY HUNTER? and that the reason of the awesomeness of both dramas are not because of the lady protagonist but the male stars like Ah In-Joongki-Yoochun trio and Lee Minho?..
ouch PMY,, but still am envy because she gets to kissed Yoochun and Lee Minho and might smooch either Jaejoong or Mr. Towel.. It's a fanfic-ish dream for most of us..

Am I the only one who loved PMY in City Hunter and SKKS? I though that she portrayed her characters well. PMY plays a lot of sweet characters, so it is understandable that she doesn't "sizzle" on screen, like KSY who has played a dark character in IRIS and interesting characters in PP and Dr.C. Instead, I think PMY can portray endearing characters very well.

Honestly I have nothing against PMY, she's pretty and well doesn't seem bitchy or anything but seriously her acting is so not there, I really don't understand how she can get all these lead roles in big dramas one after another. Good for her, she's quite the lucky lady but she better have improved this time, she was so bad in City Hunter at times esp during all the intense scenes that I was just suddenly focused on her cringeworthy acting instead of what was happening in the story. Girl needs to go back to acting school and learn the different expressions (surprised, upset, horrified, desperate...) and try not to make everything look the same. Anyways I still have some expectations for this drama, only to see how they've adapted it but Handtowel and her better deliver!
