Navigating love and work with Jang Ki-yong, Song Hye-gyo in Now, We Are Breaking Up
by tccolb
New character stills have been released featuring lead actors Song Hye-gyo (Boyfriend) and Jang Ki-yong (My Roommate Is a Gumiho) in SBS’s upcoming romance Now, We Are Breaking Up.
In a story that explores the ups and downs of dating and love, and the reality of break-ups, Song Hye-gyo plays Ha Young-eun. The design team leader of a successful fashion company, she is savvy in the ways of her career as well as her personal love life. She’s cool-headed and a realist at heart, and she’s all about making smart and risk-free decisions.
Naturally, Jang Ki-yong’s character counters Song’s personality. In the role of Yoon Jae-gook, Jang plays a free-spirited and carefree soul who is successful in his work as well. As a well-regarded fashion photographer, he works freelance.
In the newly released stills, we get a look at both characters busy on the job. Presumably, the two meet through their work and we see them encountering each other at a function as well as outside in the rain.
Written by Je In (Misty) and directed by Lee Gil-bok (Romantic Doctor Teacher Kim 2), SBS drama Now, We Are Breaking Up premieres November 12, following One the Woman.

Arrgh, this hit my better half's radar, so I guess I am watching this. My wife and I enjoy watching kdramas together but have disparate tastes. She likes high-concept blockbusters and expensively produced rom-coms or romances while I favor (in her words), slow, talky melos and propeller hat dramas (sageuks). Occasionally, we can play the spouse card and force the other to watch something s/he would not otherwise consider. (Wincing from memory of King: Eternal Monarch...) She just played the card, damnit, despite my entreaties she swap it out for Yumi's Cells. instead.

Hmmmm, I loved Misty in the beginning and then it deteriorated into nonsense, however I am not one to give up after one terrible drama. I also haven't liked either of their more recent projects, so here is hoping for this to be good.

I was not able to watch MISTY all the way through either- it was just as you said. When I see that it is the same writer I have to say that it does give me pause- although that does not always mean that it will be bad. MARRIAGE NOT DATING was and remains one of my favorite rom-coms of all time yet the same writer gave us the train-wreck of SHY BOSS.

Marriage, Not Dating
Given the issues of Shy Boss, may be the writing is not what made MND work. I don't think many appreciated it at the time but on rewatching - what makes this show work for me is all down to the performance of the 2 women. Han Groo & Kim Hae Sook.
Han Groo - who's comic timing is some of the best. Kim Hae Sook - (as the mother) who played it straight and with such pathos. With out these 2 perfomaces, I suspect many of the touching, funny and awkward moments may have been just cringy.
I miss Han Groo from drama land, such talent and with a physicality of acting that is so uncommon for female SK stars. SK Celebrity world is a brutal reality so being able to leave it at their choosing is not a bad thing.

This is fun. Why is all the text here in italic? Why aren't other articles be also in italic? Waeyo? lol
I don't know why SHG chose this project as her comeback project, but I guess she has good reasons for that. There are 2 things that make me feel interested in the show: the project somewhat mirrors her real life; the name of the director. I hope she is happy and this project is well-received by viewers both in SK and in other places.

RED SLEEVE will likely do better in the ratings in part because it is a dramatization of a classic story (and has pretty costumes- my wife will love it).

I also think Red Sleeve will win this round since currently airing sageuks are doing well in the ratings. And those are non-traditional/fantasy/fusion ones. There’s probably a wider audience for a proper, traditional sageuk after a string of those shows.

She lacks flame and where she is to be passionate seems forced. I noticed the same thing in Descendants of the Sun and Encounter. In the main poster, that face is still there.

I like SHK but I have to agree, she never seems to have any real fire or intensity with any of her co stars. Yea she was cute with Rain, or beautiful with Jo In-sung, but she doesn’t inspire the feeling of “passion”? Lol she’s still likeable and all, but there seems to always be a barrier even if her costar was SJK 🤷🏻♀️

Which is why @tiredys suggestion that she is a secret serial killer makes so much sense. Such a role would play to her dominant characteristic - icy walled off detachment.

I don't think "icy" is the right term. You can be icy and still be magnetic (think Hitchcock blondes or Nicole Kidman).
She's...blank. Which is why I say she makes for a great CF model, but doesn't project that "oomph" that the small screen, and to a bigger extent the big screen, requires.

A blank serial killer works- maybe she was brainwashed, maybe she's a clone, maybe she was brought up in an child organ trafficking cult and falls in love with a ballerina turned cop...
On a scale of 1 to 10, how likely is Sic to mention clones in a JKY thread? 10/10 apparently.

@leetennant do you really want her to be part of that army? do you? Think about it, the qualifications for that army are "can act every part and role of a show on their own."... the qualifications for being a JKY clone are... "can Sic make Kill It joke about this." One of those qualifications is not like the other.

I’ve always had a problem with Song Hye Kyo but I couldn’t describe it.
She is exactly as you said: cold and distant. It’s always the same face in all her dramas.
I couldn’t even finish Descendent of the Sun and when I think of Full House (one of was my first dramas) my mind kinda goes blank and I don’t connect it with her. It’s like it was another actress.

Totally agree. I don't like to say bad things about actors because they work hard for us, but in her case, she's probably rich and beautiful enough that she doesn't care what anybody thinks. She did loosen up a bit in Encounter after a while.

One of the ideas in it took the idea that our minds are composed of multitudes to the next level by finding a way to surface some of multitudes into overt existence.

LOL inside, until it hurts re my darling JKY and Nana. It's hard to understand that he was soundproof resistant to beautiful Nana, but he was. What an opportunity missed. Looking at you, Director. In spite of the frustration though, I watched every minute, even the extremely distasteful family and the organ/children icky stuff. Now watching The Boy Next Door before I pass judgement on his acting and miscasting. He seems to do angry best - refer to My Ajussi and WWW (the angry bits). I find him a bit scary. But how he will ever play off our FL in this forthcoming drama makes my eyes hurt in anticipation.

She means the R rated, sexcapades that should have been in Kill It but weren't. Nana for some reason delivered every line like she was seconds away from jumping his bones. But never did.
Meanwhile, regardless of Nana's... interesting... acting choices in that show, she was directing huge volumes of energy at JKY, only for it to hit the natural soundproofing that is wood.

New conspiracy theory: Kill It was never a real show lmao.
@leetennant
Minimum all they had to do was let him kiss her against a wall somewhere and that would've alleviated much of the ridiculous amounts of built up tension between the two. Even that would've been better than nothing!!!!!

@leetennant
That…makes way more sense than me imagining Kill It never existed lmao. I don’t really blame Nana for wanting to jump his bones. The guy *is* hot, I’ll admit that. Even if he can’t emote. A shame, since I’d be down for an r-rated version.
But I’ll subscribe to new theory by @sicarius that Kill It was never real because it’s funny. And true from now on.

I mean, this is how I know there is only a version of WWWSK where Secretary Kim slips death mushrooms into his omelette within a few years and the K2 ends with our eponymous hero running off to a tropical island with Choi Yoo-jin who faked her death.

I wholly support your version of the K2 and it is now canon. No infantilized heroines here!

October 13, 2021 at 4:38 PM
@leetennant's version of the K2 is the happy ending. I would go for the tragic ending still myself; any romance angle is still with Choi Yoo Jin, Yoona's character is and is played by an actual child, but Choi Yoo Jin still dies :P :P cos angst. And I'm an evil queen.

Funny thing was when I began by switching off the italics and closed by switching them back on, effectively reversing the HTML markup, my text showed up in recent comments without the italics, but stayed in this as italics.

I've never seen so much excitement over italics I'm still dealing with my Encounter disappointment. Not sure I can forgive. JKY strikes me as an unrecognised dorky, albeit v good looking guy. I'd love to see him play himself in something. I wept for him in My Ajussi. I understood what she meant in WWW when she said "Should you be walking around like that?" I watched Kill It for him. I haven't seen Roommate yet, but I'll also watch it for him. I guess I'll do the same with this but I will complain all the way.

Didn't he *technically* play himself in one of those YG mini webdrama things with Yoon and Dara where they didn't change anyone's name?
ANyway, the italics are fun for many reasons, one of them being I get to exercise my repertoire of other emphasis internet linguistics formatting techniques besides well, italics. @mmmmm xx

The Boy Next Door. I've started it. LOL moments. He offered him toilet paper roll for a pillow. Thanks for the recommendation.

I don't actually think it WAS Boy Next Door, I think I was thinking of We Broke Up or Love For A Thousand More (yes I watched both of those, why? Yoon.) But I just looked them up and neither of them are real-name-as-character-name dramas so *shrugs*

Love A Thoisand more.. definitely watch that for JKY. and maybe that kdrama with Jang Na ra, he was cool in that, too.
can't seem to watch We Broke Up even when it first came out, just not into Dara as an actress. When I got into Winner, I tried to watch it again but can't get past ep. 1.
I watched Love a Thousand More 3 times already, go figure.
I'd watch High Kick 3 for Yoon.

By the FL in Encounter. I've written about it on my wall. Hopefully this link will work. It's titled A Complaint

I really like Jang Ki-yong but nothing else about this drama is inspiring me. The teaser they released was a downer too. I'm guessing it will draw some SHK and EXO fans at least.

I know my answer to the messy italics incident on this post.
@db-staff
At the last paragraph, it should be put the "less than-i-greater than-One the Woman-less than-slash-i-greater than", then period.
First:
Then that's how this incident will resolve.

Gotta love though that this means that EVERYTHING under that point, is somehow read as part of the same text, and incurs the effect of the html typo; the entire comments section, the link section, the comment type boxes, comments written and to be written, past, present and future, dates, likes, everyone's display handle, including the side bar with currently airings and recently posted, AND the "Currently recapping, recently recapped, next recap" and "follow dramabeans" on the bottom widget, the premium supporter header, the featured videos header- everything below and to the side of that point you mentioned is effected by it... *except* for the menu bar down the bottom and the featured video titles themselves. Which is... a pretty weird and hilarious website devel glitch if you ask me, tbh.😂

My brain has got used to things and stopped changing how its internal monologue sounds to my inner ear every time I read this thread, however it still reads everything DISTINCTLY different from non-italic comments, and even the same comments in non-italics.
The novelty has not quite worn off yet ;)

A younger guy again? but of course, you'd be breaking up.. 🙄 we know what happened last time.
For once, maybe an actor in her age bracket, isn't there anyone? The list is long.
SHG only takes this roles where she can play pretty, look good and won't exert much. Maybe I'm hoping for a RomCom like Full House.
I'm bored with over complicated relationships.
