He has, and honestly I don't think he's particularly great at it. And that's not in any way impugning his talent, it's just that it's hard to play cold and still be likeable. Not everyone can be like Yoon Hyun-min who should always play cold leads because he still manages to be super expressive and likeable, haha.

I like Jun better as oddballs, like May I Help You and Love and Leashes.

For me it is the other way around. A more normal and ordinary premise like this one makes me smile and go ok, we'll see where this goes. Hope they have a nice story and a few good twists.

But a premise like what (and how) was advertised for QoT for example, feels contrived and forced to me. And my reaction is hmm wonder how many episodes they will manage to keep it interesting... The more the premise looks novel the more skeptical I become...

P.s. By no means I mean that ordinary stories are better, or that new ones are bad, this is just my reaction to drama announcements way before they air.

I've always wondered this too, but some actors do want to play in a romcom to change up the genres they're usually in. Some viewers love a good, formulaic, tropey story and I'm sure there are actors who feel the same way.

You seem to have stolen the words right out of my mouth. I love the leads and I will definitely be giving it a shot

THIS! 🫰

Pretty much, word to word is how I feel. No pretense, just a straight forward tropey fun and I am in.

I think its because TVing is streaming

from your lips to the kdrama gods' ears, or however the saying goes XD

Amnesia inducing wand to the rescue!!

I don't think I have watched the ML in anything, but so far, I agree about Pyo Ye Jin. I feel she overdoes emotions and somehow does not have the presence to pull a show by herself. But it could be that her last drama choice was terrible, against a male lead who I find quite the dud. She had zero chemistry with him (I only watched one and a half episode so just based on that, though the beanie comments only validated what I felt).

I like both actors but as always Kurama has the most accurate analysis. 👌👏 ♥️

But I'm tempted to at least give this a try and (as always) hope for the best. 🤞 If nothing at least the drama chat will be 💯 guaranteed fun.

It's Cinderella at 2 AM with Shin Hyun-Bin and Moon Sang-Min. There isn't a released date yet, just 2024.

"I Openly Dream of Cinderella" is the direct translation of its Korean title "나는 대놓고 신데렐라를 꿈꾼다." "Dreaming of Cinde Fxxxing Rella" is the English title they've decided to go with because swear words are cool and will attract more English viewers. /s

In Asianwiki it says the title is
“ Dreaming of Cinde Fxxxing Rella”

I’m not thinking that is right 🤣🤣🤣

I recently tried to put the revised/English title in a fan wall post and was blocked from doing so. Has db staff decided to allow it?! 🤔 lol

Yes I'll be tuning in for her!!

Count me in 🙋‍♀️

*what is sleep*

To me it sounds pure fun. I am all for tsundere CEOs becoming dorky in love.

I guess I could start it. I'm not a fan of the main actors yet, but the plot could be fun and nice.

I believe It will wait longer in my watchlist than you all, as I am in the “old is gold” phase 😂 currently prefers watching older work than new production! But will definitely read you all !
