Official poster revealed for Best Love
by javabeans
Woot woot! The main poster is out for Best Love, the Hong sisters drama starring Gong Hyo-jin and Cha Seung-won. The poster setup/composition isn’t really anything new, but it does pique my interest for the various lovelines going on — particularly since I do enjoy all four lead actors. For once!
It’s not often that that happens — and it almost never happens in a Hong sisters drama, since they’re so fantastic with lead couples that they seem to forget that there are other characters who need developing as well. As much as I love their adorable leads, you never feel that tension or suspense for their future, because it’s plain as day they’re meant to be. A little competition never hurt, especially when we’re supposed to be creating love triangles galore.
Here’s the teaser again, below. Brief plot rundown: Gong plays a washed-up former idol star, while Cha Seung-won is the present-day hot property. Based on the fact that his character’s first lines in the teaser below are “I…will…kill…you…”, I’m going to hazard a guess that his much-loved, sparkling reputation isn’t completely earned. Yoo Inna looks amusingly snooty as Gong’s former idol groupmate — can’t wait to see what little comic twists she incorporates into her portrayal — while Yoon Kye-sang plays the sole non-celebrity, a warm and friendly Oriental medicine doctor.
Frankly I’d say the teaser itself is kinda slapdash, edited together a bit haphazardly. And the music! Blaaaaaagh. (Seriously? That is the first glimpse you give us of your anticipated show?)
However. The scenes themselves seem zippy and funny and the actors appealing, and that’s really what I’m watching this drama for, anyway. I remember how loopy and strange I thought You’re Beautiful looked in its pre-premiere promos and trailers, and we all know how that turned out — mania crazes, fandom insanity, multiple Dramabeans site crashes. Ahh, those were the days.
Best Love premieres May 4. Bring it on!

Her comic timing is excellent. She showed she could play with "the big boys" when she acting very confidently with Hyun Bin, and making him more believable.
One of my favorite scenes in SG was when he promised to get her job back, and she had to talk Key Lime into going out for a drink with him. All the interplay was light and sweet and witty.
Like they were having a nice game of catch.

The way CSW holds his "rocker" pose... his pinky looks like it's not used to the cool-rocker-hand-thing yet. (Notice how the pinky isn't fully extended.)
I don't know why I find that cute. Hehe

It's strange that he has to practice acting cool at his age... maybe another meta at how actors have to act younger than their age to fit their prepackaged images. I <3 Hong sisters!

Yup, the pinky needs a bit of help. Also, if I am not mistaken, the thumb needs to go down or he will be rockin' out with the sign language "I love you" instead of the index/pinky "devil horns" a la 1980's "hair" bands.

"while Yoon Kye-sang plays the sole non-celebrity, a warm and friendly Oriental medicine doctor." ??
He does NOT look like that at all. ROFL. He looks too good!
CanNOT wait! I love all four of them and hope they all end up in good places!
But, Yoo Inna as antagonist(?) just goes against the(my) grain. Still, I look forward to what she brings to the table.

I have a feeling that any of the doctor-patient scenes with YKS are going to make me all inappropriately mimsy.
He carries around a tension that I want to help him release, and yes, I do mean it that way.*

Now that you mentioned it... YKS is supposed to be almost 6' tall so his two-inch man-heels (lol) would put him about on par with CSW's lanky 6'2" body. If only CSW was standing up to confirm. GHJ is pretty darn tall at about 5'8". Even taking the man-heels and added "hair height" into consideration, YKS definitely looks to be taller than GHJ however, 4 inches taller may be pushing it. In conclusion, YKS's profile height is exaggerated. Which explains why he is wearing the two-inch man-heels in the first place. In conclusion, I just wasted several minutes looking up actor profiles and converting centimeters to inches.

It's like if 50% or more of the trailer is made of main characters laughing.
Whatever the reasons, it seemed bit awkward.
Perhaps my expectation from the two main leads was bit high, but this trailer is disappointing. I'm sure actual drama will be better though.

Based on trailers only:
Greatest Love < Baby Face Beauty < Lie To Me
Leading actors' chemistry in Lie To Me trailer was fantastic.
The last scene when they were sitting on the bench at night with cherry blossom covering the background was oozing chemistry. This is definitely the best trailer and very impressively done~

Just curious now that you mention the site crashing.
What drama event brought the most traffic?
What is the limit that one more post would push the site over the edge today?
On a side, but related note, Dramacrazynet has had issues in the past few weeks. Wonder if they will be upgrading to fix that...
