Kim Min-hee and Lee Min-ki cast in new romantic comedy
by girlfriday
Well this is a pair I could get behind. A new romantic comedy film is in the works, called While Breaking Up, starring Kim Min-hee (Moby Dick, Love and Marriage) and Lee Min-ki (Shut Up Flower Boy Band, Chilling Romance) as a couple who break up and make up over and over again. Kim Min-hee hasn’t confirmed, but the prospects are good, and Lee Min-ki is reportedly signed on to be the leading man.
The movie will follow the roller coaster relationship of a workplace couple. They’ve been together a long time, and have managed to keep their relationship a secret from everyone they work with. The story recounts their many break-ups and make-ups, and they’ll come to discover that their love is the real deal… in the process of breaking up. Of course. You never know how much you want it till it’s gone, yeah? Sounds like lots of bickering peppered with adorable cuteness, if all goes well.
At the helm is a female director, Noh Duk, who earned acclaim for her short film The Secret Pride Within the Mask. This will be her first full-length feature. With those actors headlining, it’d be a tragedy if it didn’t live up to its potential. No pressure or anything!
While Breaking Up plans to head into production next month for a release early next year.

Lee Min Ki. I started SUFBB last night and fell in love with his character. It will be nice to see him again.

Waiting impatiently for this one! Now, if Sir Lee Min-ki could sign for a complete drama, it would be perfect. Please? Pretty please?

At firts, I thought it was a drama... reading further... it's a film.
When are you, Lee Min Ki, coming back to the small screen? We need more of you, like at least 16 hours!

I want a drama, too! I'll watch anything that Lee Min-ki is in, but somehow I don't think that films bring out all of his awsomeness the way that dramas do.

I remember that he's the main reason why I watch SUFBB anyways so I was disappointed that he's only doing a cameo. Good thing SUFBB was a great drama.

Funny as I read the plot of workplace couple who kept their relationship secret from their workers and the breakup and makeup they go through and adorrable cuteness, the only thing that came to mind was Hotaru no Hikari with Ayase Haruka.
But's it's going to be mostly breaking up and making up over and over again story I might have to pass.

This sounds promising. I suddenly feel like watching it. I just hope there are more stories instead of the couple breaking up every ten minutes. I do have high hopes for this. Movie, please don't disappoint me, please?

I adore both of these actors, and they give off a similar avant-garde vibe.

Ah damn! I got too excited and somehow skimmed over the word "film". I thought this was a drama until I hit the words "feature length" and was like wait, what??? and scrolled back up.
Loll, well I'm looking forward to it either way. :)

I'm currently watching Lee Min Ki's drama "Dal Ja's Spring" and it's good. Now I'll watch pretty much anything he's in.

The plot is pretty much the same to Yoon Kye Sang and Kim Ha-neul's movie Six Years in Love. Which I didn't enjoy.

I am glad to hear about this news! But, I thought it was supposed to be a drama, hahaha. I really want to enjoy while watching drama, ofc. :D Well, I haven't seen this actress Kim Min Hee for a long time....I wondered why she still isn't back to dramaland....hmm...??
I think, to be honest, they'd be good-looking together if they would be couple!

Yes, that would make me so happy! I've been re-watching Love Marriage and Dal Ja's Spring. It's my happy place. That, and Coffee Prince. Hmmm... they don't make dramas like they used to! ;)
