Young and in love and Uncontrollably Fond of each other
by girlfriday
I like the sweet springtime feel of the new poster for KBS’s Uncontrollably Fond, which goes hand in hand with the latest teaser, featuring the college campus love story between leads Kim Woo-bin (Heirs) and Suzy (Gu Family Book). It’s the idyllic romance before a painful separation and years on separate paths turn them into very different people as adults; knowing that there’s going to be plenty of heartache, I think I’ll take what I can get of the cuter, happier times they had in the past.
The new romance melodrama from writer Lee Kyung-hee (Wonderful Season, Nice Guy) is about young sweethearts reuniting as adults in very different circumstances: he’s a world-famous top star with a giant ego and a prickly personality, and she’s a materialistic documentary PD who’ll pretty much do anything for money. They’ll have a bickering, antagonistic relationship that reignites when she’s forced to interview him for a program.
Which is why I like that their past love story will be sweet and nostalgic. The teaser below features their run-in as students, which also began with a lot of bickering. She shouts, “What do you want me to do?!” Kim Woo-bin: “Let’s date.” He seems to have a habit of doing that.
Next thing we know, Suzy’s interrupting him in the library with a public display of baby-talk: “Did my honey finish class?” Please tell me she’s doing that to embarrass him. He pulls her close and calls her “honey” right back, and at least they have a good laugh about it. Here’s hoping that their cute young love carries us through the rough patches ahead.
Uncontrollably Fond follows Master-God of Noodles on Wednesdays and Thursdays this summer, beginning July 6.

I've seen both their latest works and thought showed a substantial improvement (not a lot but a decent one at least).
Hoepfully they both follow the upward climb.

honestly, they're the weakest Lee Kyung-hee leads in long time (possibly ever, especially considering her last prime time leads were Song Joong-ki and Moon Chae-won), but she knows how to accommodate rookie leads and write in a way that covers for their weaknesses. It's just that she has a bit of an uphill task with these two, and some parts of the teasers have me REALLY unsure.
(I did not think anyone could actually render Kim Woo-bin boring to me, but it's happening with the whole 'sweet college romance' angle, I'm not feeling it. Hopefully the grown-up part will actually bring his bite back, though I'm unsure how suited either of them is to melo).

Same here. He seems totally de-fanged, but these are supposed to be those golden days of perfect young love so I withhold judgement. I am also sincerely hoping that Suzy is acting someone badly pretending to be cute. I assume her actual cute acting is much, much better since so many people adore her.

You mean zero chemistry Moon Chae Won and Song Joon Ki were somehow better than Suzy and KWB? I will never understand rave about Nice Guy and particularly this couple, considering, that both of them were very-very-very meh in that drama. Also with whom KWB and Suzy not worthy to be with in same line? Weak Shin Minah and Han Ye Soul, so-so Gong Hyo Jin and Kim Hee Sun? Whatever Rain, Lee Seo Jin and hit or miss Go Soo? Okay.

Even the ones you call not so great among that, still showed better acting than KWB and especially Suzy. Rain was making his acting debut and he was still better than this.
Nice Guy had stupid writing but the actors saved it, otherwise who would keep watching after freaking amnesia?

I am looking forward to KWB playing the lead.
And Suzy looks extremely beautiful and totally into him in the poster. if she is going to be looking at him like this, then I will watch her looking at him like this!!
I hope this will launch KWB into higher orbit.
I hope the drama is not predictable as the teasers indicate. I hope for surprises in the plots and and a lot of fun.
And when W starts, sadly, I will watch this after I watch W because I gotta see my boy first.

This is basically guaranteed to be a hit thanks to its writer - she knows her romance melos.
That poster is very pretty, but it+the teaser are leaving me seriously lukewarm. There's something about Kim Woo-bin in sweet college boy mode that just doesn't work, it just renders him insipid (and I do like him but his bad-boy edge is his appeal, the vibe he's giving off here is the equivalent of a shark wearing a chihuahua costume - he's going for cute but he's not versatile enough to actually pull it off). He actually only comes to life in the scenes where he's acting like a bit of a jerk. As for Suzy..... well, I'm sure she'll bring in loads of PPL money, and if Lee Kyung-hee can't get a good performance out of her, I doubt anyone can.

The poster is so charming and pretty. As for the previews, I definitely see improvement in Suzy, but honestly...the bar is set so incredibly low for her that any signs of actual emoting will cause fans to think she's some sort of great thespian, which is going to be annoying.
KWB is a serviceable enough actor, I haven't seen anything new or challenging from him, and I'm not sure how different this character will be from anything else he's done so far.
Anyway, this will be a hit given how hard KBS is promoting this, and basically ignoring their other dramas lol.

You nailed it. The kind/calibre of performances any talented, critically-lauded young actress would be sharply criticised for, would probably seem like Daesang material coming from Suzy because we've been conditioned into expecting so little from her.
KBS must be thrilled to finally have hit weekday dramas again lol, can't blame them for wanting to protect their PPl money. I'm glad Neighbourhood Lawyer Jo Deul-ho wasn't forced into an extension, at least.

Yeah, I'm kind of more than annoyed with idols getting passes for literally everything in terms of acting because of their fanbases and people like HJE getting overly criticized for being slightly screechy and over the top in her acting, especially comedic roles. I mean she's not the best, but to straight up call her bad and say she should go on that actor's school variety show...Yeah, no.

tbh even idols who do prove themselves get endless, sometimes utterly nonsensical criticism afterwards.
Like I actually find it mind-boggling that people will criticise post-Producers IU for taking the lead role in Scarlet Heart, while Suzy gets a pass on all her terrible past performances.
And the inability of some fans to separate actresses like Hwang Jung-eum and Park Shin-hye from their characters (and then criticise them as if they are their characters), will always annoy me. Especially in the case of HJE, who has done far more with her career than wacky romcoms.

June 2, 2016 at 5:36 AM
Well, her performance in GFB brought home Top Excellence Actress 3 years ago, ahead of Go Hyun Jung, Moon Geun Young, etc. I think an improved performance here would make her fans think she's Daesang worthy.
Not that I'm not aware she's improving, yes I can see Suzy is improving and more emotive here and she's likeable too so her marketability is going to be good for KBS, but she still has much to do to be considered good actress.

Seriously people, Suzy isnt one of the best actresses out their but i think y'all going a little overboard on the hating. Her acting imo is just okay, not oscar-worthy but still not Razzie-worthy. So just wait for the drama to air and see how she will fair. If anything, i think she will be the one who will add some feels a lot more to this drama than KWB. Either way, cant wait for it!! Am confident in both actors...

I'm impartial towards Suzy but after watching the teaser, i am absolutely intrigued by her. It's the exaggerated aegyo that did me in (which i'm reading as her trying to embarass/turn off KWB's character.) Me predicts that this is one of those 'be my stand-in girlfriend to throw off other girls' situation. And in typical kdrama fashion, they'll both fall for each other in the process. Needless to say, i am now excited bout this drama. Can't wait!

I've only seen Kim Woo Bin in A Gentleman's Dignity and School 2013 and he's been likeable in both. Avoided Heirs, and couldn't finish Con Artists. So this will be my first time seeing KWB do a non-angsty school boy role.
This teaser was better than the first one, he isn't so jerky here. I don't know where to start about Suzy, I kept looking for irritation on her face when she yelled "So what should I do?" but I got a blank face instead. If this is how it's going to be then I'll have a hard time watching this one. Please, please surprise me Suzy!

I do really hope this drama would be hit, and i keep my expectation low because of the leads
let's be honest here i've been a fan of suzy since dream high and idk why i think i've been captivating by her beauty and for woobin it's kinda so so for me
and yeah talkin about the acting ability i think woobin is good and we know about suzy's ability i'm not gonna defend her but since i watched dream high i know her ability is not good even when she got praised by her acting in gu family book i don't see where the praise come from because she's not convincing enough for me but i always have a faith in her. i think the more experience she got the more good she would be. i think it's depend on what project given to her because when she did architecture and big i think her acting is great there but still she need to take an acting class.
And for the people i just want to give you some advice i mean when u watch the drama please first throw away the negative mind about suzy give it a try and don't expect more from her because even someone doin good but your mind tell you that their sucks then u will only see the sucks thing. clear your mind first be positive and the result likely to be positive. watch the drama with clear mind.
I do hope this drama would be hit and for the W fans i don't hope it's fail but i hope UF rating would be higher than W.
I'm a fan of Suzy so i hope she did it justice!

what people say here is nothing compared to the criticism people give to even popular Holywood movies. Just look at the things people said about Batman v Superman or Star Wars prequels and their actors, and even those fans complaints less than idol fans.

To be honest, Batman v Superman is 100x better than Star Wars movie. It gets unfair bias against the movie only because any film with Zack Snyder is warranted to get hate on. I mean, Disney children theme park Marvel movies with bland story/subpar acting and discount superheroes gets better rating than BvS is difficult to fathom.

I meant, Star Wars prequel movies. In case, there are Star Wars stans.
But then again, I'm never a Star Wars fan.

Wow! This is improvement? Standards, where have you gone? I never post comments but I am here because I'm genuinely curious about why some stars get an unlimited free pass. Frankly, she's crap in the trailer. I don't enjoy watching acting where the actor's face is so blank that I have to interpret the scenes and emotions myself. Poor Woo Bin. Poor PD and Scriptwriter.

Yes, I agree, Suzy can't act and I see no improvement in the trailer. But at least she is beautiful, and that is very important in a melodrama. Kim Woo Bin, on the other hand, is just very tall (other than that I can't see anything good about him). So I don't understand why anyone would pity him (it's not like he has talent or anything).

Agree
I watched him in Twenty and I didn't like him there, well I didn't like the movie in general
So he's not that great of an actor either

He has more acting talent than her, but he only suits bad boy roles, this kind of cutesy teddy bear look with his dinosaur face looks really fake. So he and Suzy are equal as long as his role is acting cute.
Kang Haneul and his sister in Twenty were more interesting characters than KWB's, better acting too.

Honestly, I've never seen any of the writer's dramas and have never seen Suzy act (except for her YFAS cameo) and only ever saw Kim Woo-bin in his short TTBY role (which was a terrible drama anyway) so I'm going into this with no expectations. Which might be a good thing.
However, I'll probably pass this up for either Wanted or W unless it ends up getting great reception.

Oh, I wish you hadn't mentioned that cameo. I had blissfully forgotten about it. It made me so angry, and still fills me with disgust, that they inserted this totally random meeting with a totally random person that made no sense in the story and was dropped immediately - all because this idol and the lead were "married" in some other insultingly stupid show. Any integrity on the part of the writer or PD just went straight out the window.

idk. I have a love/hate relationship with Lee Kyung-hee because she never backs up her narrative/thematic ambitions (which I love) with any kind of research or verisimilitude (which I loathe), so her projects always end up feeling ridiculous on the microlevel, which is what we see and deal with first. Asking us to believe in and see the greater purpose to the lazy nonsense she spews requires good actors--even if I don't believe in her, I can believe in and connect with actors like Song Joong-ki, Im Soo-jung, Gong Hyo-jin, Jang Hyuk, etc...with Suzy and Woo-bin, this will be difficult. I'm not sure I'll have the patience to deal with her, let alone them.

Every single article about UF has been basically a string of "Suzy can't act!" "Kim Woo Bin looks boring!" and "Why won't let these fans talk about how terrible their acting is!!!" when in fact there's been plenty of comments talking bad about their acting and clearly their fans haven't been a blockade for them.
I think they're fine honestly, and Suzy is passable enough in my opinion. And I roll my eyes every time I see comments about how Ims should've been the leads instead because frankly Im Joo Eun's acting short of Hon/Soul has been lackluster and she has terrible diction.

I'm surprised to hear that, because Im Joo Eun, in all the roles I've seen her in has been pretty versatile and has played a range of character wonderfully. She was absolutely great in What's Up!, then completely charming in Wild Romance and she wasn't bad in The Heirs either (just didn't have much to do.) Those three characters are as far apart from each other as it's possible to get, and imo, she was believable as all of them.

A PD once said that Im Joo Eun has a face that can play both good and evil, her role choices are diverse. Sad that talented actresses like her can't get first lead roles.

Maybe Im Joo Eun's acting is not perfect but it's funny to call Suzy passable while saying all that about IJE.
It really is true, bad actresses are held to such low standards compared to good ones who have to do 10 times more work to be acknowledged. Popularity is really something.

Passable doesn't mean good, it means tolerable enough that I don't quit watching a show because of his or her acting.
My opinion is that Im Joo Eun, like some of the other actors here, is pretty overrated on DB and my impression of her has been terrible since I can't understand a word she says. It has nothing to do with Suzy since I've never seen a single show she was on and I only have the teasers to judge her.
Who knows, maybe Im Joo Eun will impress me more here if she somehow manages to enunciate this time.

The poster is lovely but both the teasers are disappointment. It looks like kim woo bin is playing young do all over again and suzy on the other hand can't seem to act. I feel like the girl is getting free pass for her acting just because she is pretty and likable. Both of them also look tired in the teaser. Anyways, The drama is already overhyped. And i don't doubt about its popularity as kbs is already marketing the heck out of it.
Overall, It looks cringeworthy. But i trust the writer and like woo bin and suzy as individuals. So gonna sit back and see how it all goes.

There's no way to tell how a drama is going to turn out based on promos alone. I've said this before, many times.
I will wait and watch the drama before deciding whether I like it or not. I've been pleasantly surprised by some dramas which totally blew away my preconceived notions. So I know not to take people's likes or dislikes about dramas on db seriously, and make up my own damn mind.
I ended up loving DOTS despite all the negative comments about the teaser, and I'm thoroughly enjoying Mirror of the Witch for all my squeamishness about the age difference between the leads. I'll give this drama a chance to wow me.

I like the posters, they're so pretty. The kind of posters which bring out warm, nice, familiar and comfortable feeling.
For me, drama is about the story and the directing so I think I don't care about the leads. Both Suzy and Woobin are pretty. I don't mind watching them, but I'm not sure about the writer... both Nice Guy and Wonderful Season doesn't impress me at all.

Plot line is not intriguing. While I like the writer, I am not a fan of Suzy's acting at all. KWB is a hit or miss because he ends up behaving like his previous characters, this is like a grown up college version of Choi Young Do.
With that said, the cinematography of the seasons during this drama is pretty, not not enough that I'll watch this drama.

I think that neither is the worst actor out there but they aren't the best either. I agree with a lot of what has been said: Suzy is pretty as ever, has improved but isn't impressing yet either. Meanwhile Kim woo bin has played a lot of the same and is good at it. The question is whether he can be just as good at something else.
They both have natural charm and are pretty to look at, which helps a lot in winning people over, good acting or not. They are likeable and that's good enough for a lot of people. The trailer and poster are all very pretty. This could go really well with a solid writing and winning characters. A well written character with so-so acting can still produce a good drama. Hopefully this turns out well for both these actors! I'll be staying tuned to see how it turns out!

The poster and teaser look cute. As for Suzy and KWB, while I'm not particularly fond of, I don't have problems with either. I haven't watched enough of their projects to be able to come up with a critique but from what I've seen so far I'm not too bothered by their acting. The writer though, I seem to be in the minority here but I wasn't all too fond of Nice Guy. I did watch it until ep 10-12 and read recaps for the remaining episodes but that whole amnesia plot really ruined it for me. Maybe it's just not my cup of tea, that's all..

Can't really say that I am excited about it. Never watched a drama with Suzy before and just watched Heirs for Woo Bin.
Will his character be along the same line as Choi Young Do?

As a long time KWB fan (was my first bias actor, until I moved on to the amazingness that is LYK). Anyway, I'm happy to finally see to him as the lead. Idk exactly what it is about him, but for me I always want him having more screen time. When he cameo'd in TTBY I wanted it rewritten to it was all about him. Not necessarily getting the girl, just him and Lee Hyun Woo '93 talking for the rest of the show.
I somehow forgot that the Ims were in this. They slayed in What's Up? And IJH is the only person whose career trajectory puzzles me more then IJE.
On the Suzy front, DH was an early drama for me and the only one with her. I was struck by KSH and milk couple. I could take or leave anyone. Don't dislike Suzy as much as Taec. But I used to confuse her and Eunji, don't ask idk how. And still I'm like okay but Eunji instead. I regress, I hope for and believe there probably is improvement from DH.
So UF, I am ready!

I've read almost all the comments and yet don't feel anything for the show. I will just watch this depending on the feedback. I like Nice Guy before but I don't like both leads and I am unsure whether this show will get me right from the go.
