Press conference for KBS’s investigative rom-com I Remember You
by girlfriday
KBS’s upcoming Monday-Tuesday crime thriller rom-com mashup drama I Remember You held its press conference on June 16, in anticipation of the show’s premiere next week. The series about love and intrigue among the members of a special investigative task force stars Seo In-gook (King’s Face) as an elite profiler with a hidden past, and Jang Nara (Fated To Love You) as a detective who’s been secretly following him for a long time.
Seo In-gook said about his co-star Jang Nara: “When I first saw her, I thought she was like a pretty cat. We were doing our first shoot and she was always on top of things and liked to be in corners. She’d be on top of the sink, or sit between the sink and refrigerator, and it made me think she was a unique and fun person.”
When asked about their age difference, Jang Nara answered, “I was worried about it at first. But [Seo In-gook] is such a good actor. He grasped his character Lee Hyun right away. I like acting with him a lot — he’s much better than I am. I’m happy that we got to work together.” She added about the shoot: “We’re shooting happily. We’re working hard to create a lot of funny scenes. I think I’m the one in charge of physical gags.”
Choi Won-young (Kill Me, Heal Me), who plays a professor and consultant to the team, said about the series: “I Remember You is a complex drama. There’s enjoyment in solving and matching the complicated parts. It’s like the fun of reading a crime novel.” Co-star Lee Chun-hee (Dating Agency Cyrano), the team’s lead detective, added: “If cable crime investigation shows are like an americano, then I Remember You is like a cafe latte. Americanos have a strong coffee taste, and cafe lattes are sweet.”
Park Bo-gum (Cantabile Tomorrow) plays a mysterious lawyer, and said about his role: “I’ve only played student roles until now; it’s my first character with a profession. I think I’ll appear different from the younger image I’ve had. I’m meeting with lawyers to get advice and researching my character.” Oh, you are so tiny and cute.
Seo In-gook was asked about why he’s so cool (seriously, who asked these questions?), but had an interesting answer: “When I’m acting, I don’t try to look cool. If I were a cool person it wouldn’t matter, but because I’m not, when I try to act cool it’s obvious and awkward. I had the good luck to quit the habit of trying to look cool on set early on.” If only everyone had that common sense.
I Remember You premieres next Monday, June 22.

ha, he does tend to be extremely absorbed in the part - when it is well written. he was so believable as a high school kid that you had to remind yourself he actually isn´t.

There seems to be a fashion trend in Dramaland of styles that throw back to the 1920s. (But that doesn't explain SIGs Count Dracula outfit. ? )

I'm glad this pairing turned out to be a looot better than what I had imagined upon the annoucement of the cast. It might be the show's salvation if everything else goes wrong, which I hope is not the case. Show, please be good.

I watched the trailer for this after School 2015 and it made me notice how much Yook Sungjae looks like Seo In Gook. They really look like brothers, if YSJ plays SIG's younger version in a drama it would look so realistic...

Interesting that they look similar. The premise of this drama reminds me of "So I Married an Axe Mirderer."

Ouf, her last drama was a complete disaster. I wish I didn't watch it. Hopefully this one will be much much better.

They look so good together! Haha, with Jang Nara, I wouldn't worry about an age gap, she looks so very youthful and full of energy.
Didn't know tat Park Bo-gum was in this, but that's another reason to watch!

Some spoilers if some mind
Now that i've got the chance to see more of the story i really hope teh writter does go in the story the teaser tells and have out hero being kinda psycho...I guess now we kinda know from were the original title,Hello Monster came and after the current title,with the hero remembering our heroine from childhood days and it does give a twist to the usually romantic first love type,i find it chilling somehow...I so wanna see In Guk in a psycho role,hope they go with the premise of it....How intresting would be to actually have your main leading role having such a complex and creepy personality and seeing how they deal with such a dangerous individual in a leading role and use his way of seeing things to catch other killers(without the others knowing,like it get's one to know/read one) or will go with the misunderstand child who isin't actually a monster like sadly many do,either way In Guk pulls with brio his inner psycho!and he is creepy even more when he said that "by than maybe i'll by by you side" while smirking

Wow, Jang Nara is looking so cute in that outfit. It seems the leads are pretty friendly already which is always a good thing. :D
I love it when actors make friendships out of working together in a drama, its so cute and blissful.

Awww... my new OTP crush!!!
Our lovely NaraGuk detective couple!!!
Yasss, the more i looked into the promotion material, especially those last 2 trailers and that very first couple poster and now this, the more I'm invested and got super excited for this pairing. They did look cute in that press con conference, but if you watch the second trailer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcI5UwLS6Jc) and the latest couple photos (http://gall.dcinside.com/board/view/?id=sig&no=718138&page=1) oh my they don't look cute, they look sexyyy!!! SO waiting for this pairing on my screen! Fighting, I Remember You!

I love most of the cast! I like Jang Na-ra best with Choi Daniel, in Babyface Beauty. I like Choi Won-young too - thank goodness he's not playing secretary again, and oh, could he have better hairstyle in the drama, please...?

SIG looks like he's dressed for a royal ball, and not really in a good way. That suit makes me look buffy. >_<
I liked his answer about JNR because that was fun, but the rest of the Q&A are so *yawn*
