Teaching and fighting manners with L in Dare to Love Me
by tccolb
A new teaser has arrived for KBS’s rom-com Dare to Love Me, this time following our Confucian-fashioned hero L (a.k.a. Kim Myung-soo)(Numbers), who swears by the motto that manners maketh the person.
Indeed, his character teaser begins with Shin Yoon-bok (L) teaching this very lesson. Though quite scholarly, our Yoon-bok doesn’t spend all his time locked up with books, and we watch as he locks in a menacing group of thugs to make sure they properly understand Confucius’s wise philosophy.
We then hear someone asking about that man in traditional dress and our hero finally gives his formal introduction: “I come from the Sunsan village and I am the 28th generation in the Woorim Shin clan. I am Shin Yoon-bok.”
The teaser then jumps to our heroine Lee Yoo-young (Insider) in distress, when Yoon-bok suddenly appears to save the day. It’s hard to say at this point if his anger is stirred specifically because of Kim Hong-do (Lee Yoo-young) or if Yoon-bok would do the same for anyone needing help. But it’s a classic swoon moment for our Hong-do to notice Yoon-bok – if she’s not already melting in love.
There’s actually a lot more action than I expected, giving sageuk hero feels – especially with that gat. It’s making me wonder what nefarious plots are stewing in the background, beyond the rom-com’s central premise of an opposites-attract pair. As we end the teaser, our Yoon-bok certainly looks like a man with a mission as he makes his grand entrance into the building gates.
Written by Park Yumi with PD Jang Yang-ho at the helm, KBS’s Dare to Love Me will be premiering on May 13 in the Monday-Tuesday slot.

Kim Myung-soo - I love a formal gentleman. Especially one who gets hot under the collar courtesy the fiesty FL. I'm calling it out as a case of HE fell first.

Just don't make him oblivious to that fact for 3/4 of the drama. It gets too unbelievable to be in the dark for that long! He can deny all he wants as long as he is not oblivious! (big word of the day)

I like that we got the ML's perspective in episode 2 of Lovely Runner. Hoping for something similar. He can't live in denial or worse oblivion. Take off those blinkers Ajhusshi.

Oh, scholar AND badass? Nah, still pass until he learns how to loosen up a bit.
P.S. Can we get an obligatory villain/serial killer to be a hardcore Joseon nerd to keep with the theme?
