Yoo Seung-ho and Park Min-young’s emotional reunion in Remember

by girlfriday

Finally, we get to the leads! SBS’s new super-memory lawyer drama Remember has been slowly releasing stills of the supporting cast, but at last we get to Yoo Seung-ho and Park Min-young, on the set of their first scene together. They star as classmates who reunite as adults, when he’s a lawyer and she’s a prosecutor, and he’s in the fight of his life to clear his father of a murder charge and get him off death row.

It sounds like a legal drama but it’s all about memory: Yoo Seung-ho stars as a genius with a hyperactive memory (a condition called hyperthymesia) that causes him to remember excessive amounts of detail about everything. His father (Jeon Gwang-ryul) is on death row for a murder he didn’t commit, but because of his Alzheimer’s, he’s been convinced that he was the killer and can’t remember otherwise. And finally, Yoo Seung-ho faces memory loss as well, putting even more pressure on him to solve Dad’s case before he loses his abilities.

Park Min-young costars as a quirky, cheerful prosecutor who’s still a young girl at heart. She’s still green at her job, but when she reunites with the hero, she decides to stick by him and help him clear Dad’s name, maturing in the process. I know Park Min-young always plays these types of characters, but she’s really found a way to make each plucky, lovable heroine her own.

Namgoong Min plays the villain — an entitled, depraved chaebol who’s probably going to make my blood boil (in a good way). Lee Shi-un is his former classmate who works as his secretary, and judging from the stills it looks like a nightmare of a job. And Park Sung-woong plays a colorful character — a former mob lawyer who worked his way up to a legitimate firm that does good in the world. He’ll get tangled up in the conspiracy as Yoo Seung-ho starts disrupting some powerful people who are behind his father’s frame-up.

Not that I was worried or anything, but now I’m really looking forward to the Yoo Seung-ho/Park Min-young pairing — I don’t know what caused them to lose touch when they were students, but it looks like one hell of a reunion. Or maybe Yoo Seung-ho just looks at everyone that way. Maybe he looks at his mailman that way, and his pharmacist, and his dry cleaner too, leaving everyone sighing in his wake. I mean, I KNOW he looks at his cat that way.

Remember follows Village: Secret of Achiara and premieres December 9.

Err I think PMY might be want to try short hair? Not like the one she had in healer. She is looking young but I can still see she is older than YSH. With a short hair , maybe she will look younger and ppl would not notice their age difference.

Wow... so many famous faces... I mean these people have done some chunky roles themselves, some even as lead or second lead...
I loveY oo Seung Ho but I don't fancy Park Min Young. It is weird, I liked her only during Haru Haru MV but after that never found her appealingin any of her drama...there is something about her eyes...or is it face...but I love her voice...it is very soothing... I'll watch the drama for him but I am anticipating his other drama with imaginary cat more.

DAMN IT ! Yoo Seung Hoo is fine. Huhu.

He got those eyes..that torching and piercing my heart deeper than anybody.. and Ji Soo is one of his legacy..

I really can't stand seeing him get hurt and bleeding, is too torturing..

But post army look, he is kinda bringing Song Seon Hun's younger version??

I've realized that a lot of times dramas tend to use "genius" as a descriptor for the male leads. Out of curiosity are there any dramas out there where the girl is the "genius" instead (or at least at equal standing with the "genius" male lead? I'm not an avid watcher of K-dramas but the few that I've watched tend to portray the female leads to be either just average but sincere or dumb but sincere.

In fact, the accomplished women who are supposedly smart are always the villain or the third wheel and honestly all they do is establish the fact that they are "geniuses"/"talented" at the beginning and then from thereon it's just one bad decision after another on their part - does not exactly live up to their character descriptions at the start of the drama.

I really hope I didn't offend anyone here (disclaimer: there is nothing wrong with not being talented or a genius but is there all there is to being a likeable female lead?) but I'd really appreciate it if someone could recommend a drama with strong female leads?

Nice try show, but making Park Sung Woong play a bowlegged man does not make him any less hot. Even the unflattering suit which has no business at a crime scene can be overlooked, because that can be taken off. Yoo Seung Ho who?

Seriously took 5 sec to recognize Nam Goong Ming without his bangs, though.
I miss Park Min Young's short hair. It makes her look pluckier.

YSH looks so young in those shots! I always thought PMY was pretty young but seeing her in these stills with him made me realize there is a 7 year different between them. For some reason I had in my mind that YSH was older then he is and PMY was younger then she is.

But either way I'm not bothered by the age difference because PMY always has awesome chemistry with her co-stars.

While I love YSH, his baby face always makes me think of a high schooler dressed in adult clothes. Like in these stills. I can't believe him as a lawyer...PMY looks like his older sister/noona, which I guess she is...same thing happened in that drama with Yoon Eun Hye, although he was supposed to be younger than the female lead in that drama, so it felt more believable.

I'm actually most excited to see Park Min Young. I enjoyed her in City Hunter and grew to love her after Healer! She just has that something that really makes me care about her chaacters.

After people talking about the lack of geeeeeenius female leads in Kdramas, I can't help but wonder... What if the roles were reversed here, and Park Min Young played Yoo Seung-ho's role and vice-versa? Man, that would be a great chance for Park Min Young to break out of her usual type of role. I love her characters but would also love to see her try something new and really challenge herself! Plus, it would switch up the usual female/male lead dynamic and make things a bit more unique.

But, alas, no use thinking about things that will never happen.

I'm not sure if I'm ready to see Young Shin cheat on Healer-ya, but if she must, YSH is a good choice. JCW should totally do a cameo though. That would be awesome.

Wow Yoo Seung-ho looks great here.

Honestly, I didn't think much of him in WBDS and Arang (I was more into JCW and LJK), but I think he's really one of the actors to look out for.
Considering his very young age, and he's done with the military, he has many many years to go to grace our drama screen. Looking forward to this one!
