Shots from Cinderella’s Sister’s opening titles
by javabeans
First stills!
Cinderella’s Sister, KBS’s upcoming buzz drama, shot its opening titles on February 19 after its first script rehearsal took place last week. The production has released the first shots of the drama’s two stars, Moon Geun-young and Chun Jung-myung, which were taken at a resort in the Kyeonggi province.
(The mood seems a little heavier than I’d anticipated. Perhaps this’ll be a weightier drama than expected? Not that they ever said it would be fluffy — and with actors like Moon and Chun, we could expect better than throwaway silliness anyway — but when a kdrama throws the term “Cinderella” into its core description, one tends to think trendy romance.)
(Then again, they ARE only stills.)

With Moon Geun-young and Chun Jung-myung as its leads, this drama screams expressive eyes.

You're right, it does seem a bit heavier than expected..but maybe that'll turn into a good thing.
I'm utterly amazed by how much Chun Jung-myung has grown up from his What's Up, Fox? days! I wasn't terribly impressed by his performance in that drama, but I think I might tune in just to see how much (if any) he's improved. =]

The mood reminds me A LOT of Robbers... it was also filmed during Winter, and also had the sad and melodramatic mood. I'm already feeling it... especially Chun Jung Myung's~~
And is MGY wearing a wig? Has her hair grown that long already?!

Hmm...they do seem a bit serious, but surely they can't be going for flat-out melodrama, right? As long as it's not as sad as WISFC, I'll be okay.

I can't wait to watch it! I've always loved MGY and find her very pretty and talented. Judging from the stills, it does have a serious tone to it......(beautiful stills BTW). Hope this is a good one!

Hm. They look really good, but the mood feels a bit oppressive...?
Still, I'm definitely looking forward to it. You never know! The drama could surprise us...in a good way I hope!...not in a MFL way...

Moon Guen Young looks so pretty here, and she looks healthy.
Chun Jyung Mung looks fine, so fine....I like him, but I have only watched him in fashion 70's and I didn't like his character.
Thanks JB for the stills, maybe I will tune into this after all. I like that the mood will be heavier, although hopefully not too melodramatic.

I am so looking forward to this drama. I still need my WUAS fix but am looking forward to the portrayal of the evil step-sister by Moon.

So is Chun Jung-myung playing prince charming to Moon Geun-young and Taecyeon plays prince charming to Seo Woo?

Wow, Chung Jung-myung looks really mature here. :O The army treated him well, haha.
You're right, the tone does seem heavier than I'd thought, but that might not be a bad thing. As long as it doesn't make me want to rip my hair out, I'm okay with it. :)

Ooh. This does seem heavy. But maybe it's because they're out in the snow, so we're all thinking of "Will it Snow for Christmas" ?
I'm trying to think of a really serious adaptation of Cinderella, and I'm coming up short. There has to be one, right? Maybe "Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister" is the best I can think of : \

"when a kdrama throws the term “Cinderella” into its core description, one tends to think trendy romance."
When I think K-drama Cinderella story, the first thing that comes to my mind is: better buy a box of tissues.
I just have this image of hardcore melodrama with the evil mother and the poor *cough*annoying*cough* damsel in distress.
In Cinderella's Sister, I'm guessing that MGY is the lead? Considering the title and that the first stills feature MGY... (Unless both the story focuses on both MGY and Seo Woo... so it's not like theres a single lead actress the story is focused on...?) If MGY IS the lead, I'd be extremely happy. I don't want another story focused on another bubbly lead female, but I want change!
@ripgal: Actually... I don't see the Robbers resemblance. I just see typical sad winter photos that's been done a lot.

Oooh... I like, I like...
At first I was like ... ''Cinderel...'' *brain hemorrhage*
I just don't go near any of the gayo princessy stuff, y'know?
But now? Now I'm totally sat up straight and paying attention. This is not THAT Cinderel... This is THIS Cinderella. Yay!!
Have only seen Moon Geun-yung in the first episodes of Autumn Tale and in the film 'Love you not'', she played the blind girl character well.

This is my most anticipated drama since City Hall! MGY is always a delight to watch. I think any role you throw at her, she'll do justice! I'm so glad she's back in small screen. Another + for Chun Jung Myung!

@ Biscuit..
Haha, I didn't mean the story... but just the mood of the shots. Robbers also had similar (but happier) shots. And I guess because the writer's the same, I immediately thought of Robbers hehe...
And if you guys didn't know, the writer also wrote Piano, which was a classic melodrama piece IMO (starring Go Soo and Jo Min Soo as his mother too!). Robbers kinda fell short altho I loved it (and not because I'm a LDH fan, I hated some of her other dramas as well)... so hopefully Cinderella Unni can do it better for me this time.
Acting's already a done deal, sure thing everyone (dunno about Taeckyeon until I watch him act) can and WILL deliver. So it's up to Kim Kyu Wan to do his/her magic.

Chun Jung Myung looks soo fine. And Moon Geun Young looks pretty, it's been a while since I've sen her with long hair. It does seem heavier in theme than what I originally thought though. Hmm then again you are right they are only stills.

i find NO CHEMISTRY between Moon Geun-young and Chun Jung-myung - that is if they are really paired-off in this drama. Seo Woo is better with chun Jung-myung. That's why i prefer PERSONAL TASTE...not only because of the good chemistry between Lee Min ho and his female lead but also the uniqueness of its story...

Someone posted Moon Geun Young was anorexic. Is that true?
I think when she's 40, she'll finally look 20 something to me. She still looks like a 14 yr old to me.

Fresh!
Though only as stills but it did gave the refreshing feeling. And somehow Moon's role didnt look evil like typical Cinderella story. Oh well, i just need to learn and catch up the whole buzz of this drama.
And Chun is stunning. Welcome back!

@mimi: She's not anorexic, she's just thin. The typical term for anorexia is lack of appetite. Also where a person is excessively skinny to an unhealthy degree, or may have an eating disorder.
There's a huge difference in being naturally thin yet still being healthy, and a person who is anorexic. What may be seemingly unhealthy to others may not be unhealthy to some.
MGY may be thin, but she's not anorexic :)

Thank you for spoiling us! I'm loving all the posts about Cinderella Unni! Chun does look more mature in these stills and definitely hotter than before :)
The stills do look intense, but I hope it'll be more a trendy romance than a melodrama. Can't wait till it airs!

Moon Geun-young looks gorgeous. dont know why they would release stills of MGY and not Seo Woo when she's the lead. at any rate i'll be watching this show because of MGY and Chun Jung-myung.

Cinderella Sister is going head to head with Personal Taste right?? i'm curious which of these 2 would be on top, MGY vs SYJ and CJM vs LMH...
i was sure that these 2 dramas would be trendy dramas, but those stills make me unsure...

They both look SOOOO GOOD! I'm anticipating so much for this drama. Haven't watched Chun Jung-myung, but Moon Geun-young definitely is my favorite. She's just my age and way too adorable! :X
But please save my soul, I've just barely got over WISFC's mood (T_T)

Just wondering, in this drama..........who is actually suppose to be the nice/good character??? As in the female lead who WILL get the guy in the end? Is it Moon Geun Young or the other girl??
I never really got it cause it says that Moon is supposed to be the evil sister and the other female is the nice/kind stepsister?
Kind of confusing.......cause normally the kind-hearted female is usually the lead who gets all the guys to fall for her right? And since Moon Geun Young is supposedly evil in this show, means she's 2nd lead and not the main lead????

I thought this was going to be a trendy drama too, the stills could be misleading us though.
MGY looks so pretty and mature in the second picture. I have a hard time picturing her as anything older than a teenager. Which is weird since we're about the same age. That picture tho, just the way her eyes look and the outline of her face...it's different.
