Song Seung-heon’s Dr. Jin gets picked up by MBC

by javabeans

girlfriday: So it looks like Song Seung-heon’s new drama Time Slip Dr. Jin (also with Kim Jaejoong) will be going network after all. It’s found a home at MBC instead of on a cable station, as previously reported, and is due out “sometime this year.”

javabeans: That’s probably good. I’m totally making this up in my head, but I have this impression — I don’t know where I got it, exactly — that his ego’s too big for cable. Can you imagine him putting up with limited exposure and 1% ratings? Especially since the first wave of new cable shows has proven less than explosive.

girlfriday: Ha. I don’t think you’re wrong. It would be a bitter pill for the Big Star to swallow.

javabeans: I’m picturing Dokko Jin throwing a hissy-manfit.

girlfriday: But! I’m the hand towel! They can’t do this to me!

javabeans: If he’s the hand towel now, what’s he gonna do, go to cable and be the finger towel?

girlfriday: PFFFFT.

javabeans: All right, now it’s the Dramabeanies’ turn to take that and run wild. Don’t think I don’t know you’re gonna turn that dirty, ladies. I’ve been reading the threads.

girlfriday: I don’t think they need any encouragement on that front. I’m pretty sure they prefer their Song Seung-heon towel-less, though it ruins the pun, but whatever. More important things at stake! Like shower scenes.

javabeans: With his “finger”?

girlfriday: I’m not even gonna touch that one.

javabeans: Your loss.

Less skin, but additional reasons to love. We have to let him out of the shower sometimes, ladies. He'll get all wrinkle-y.

Coupla things.
It is photo shoots like this that earn him JB's "smarmy" description. He seems to be thinking, "Yes, I AM this good looking!"

Secondly, there is not a single frame in that video where THT looked anything other than god-handsome. My best days will never touch his worst.

We were talking a while back about his acting skills.
Can you imagine if he really were a good actor, I mean like Ha Jung Woo or Shin Ha Kyun good? It would be unbearable.
As I watched his expressions in the video, I thought about what type of character I'd like to see that handsome face play. Wouldn't it be fascinating if he could do a Ted Bundy serial killer role? All smooth but rotten to the core?

Anybody read "Devil in the White City"- traces the real story of a psychopath in Chicago about the time of the World Fair who killed an enormous amount of people and burned them in his special custom-made incinerator in his basement.
I'd like to see him do that type of role for a change.

Of course, he would sell a lot less smart phones to Japanese ladies if he did that...

Maybe I just get blinded by the prettyprettyohmygodsopretty but when he poses like that but then laughs, I don't see smarmy. I see a guy who knows what he's got, but can still have fun with it. Not 'I'm prettier than you, so suck up to me', but 'Yeah, I'm ridiculous. I get it.'

I think I'd have to see more than a moving photo to really know, I guess. I'd have to observe him, hear him. Touch him. Smell him. Kidna...sorry, going off track here.

And this does not affect my feelings for My Beloved...but I kinda think that Song Seung Heon is probably the most handsome man in Korea.

I agree. Nobody can beat THT in looks.
The younger pretty ones can't touch him.

Really really like ........ very very very like both SSH and KTH in My Princess. Surprised they did not win any awards for this drama. So far, it's the best Korean romance comedy I've watched.

Normally I don't finish watching Korean dramas cos' after a few episodes, I lost interest in the story, but for MP, I can watch and watch again. Probably because the chemistry between both SSH and KTH were so natural.

Ya, like some said, will be good if they really get married as I think they make a perfect couple

I hope this drama is nearly as good as the original. JIN was entertaining to watch, but Jaejoong has said that the plot for Time Slip Dr. Jin is nothing like the J-drama past the first episode, so I guess I'll have to wait and see.
