I Do, I Do First Impressions

There were four things that immediately popped into my mind as I watched the first two episodes.
1. Wow. Sun Ah looks great!!
2. Hmm Sun Ah and Jang Woo, don't look bad together, this could work.
3. Hey it's that the father from Protect the Boss?
4. Why is she so obsessive about shoes??

Sun Ah's character really doesn't have anything or anyone besides shoes. She even sleeps with them. I'm sure there is going to be a back story, I just hope the explanation isn't too flimsy. But, because she stays away from people and just worries about her shoes, it makes sense that getting drunk one night, she would sleep with someone and get pregnant.
I will keep watching, but I'm not sure if this show will be worth the effort for people who aren't Kim Sun Ah fans. The emotional acting from her is, as usual, touching. The chemistry between her and Jang Woo isn't bad either. When they're together, you do get a sense of connection. I'm worried about the rest of the show though. Where are they going with the shoe obsession? What is that second female lead really up to? Will the sexy  Gyno doctor just end up reminding me of  'Scent of a Woman'?
Obviously, I have to keep watching to find out.

Finally, after waiting for so long, Gong Yoo and 'Big' are here. I'll be watching it over at Viki. Even though the first episode is out today I'll be waiting for the subbing team to do the work. I know some people just can't wait to watch even if they don't understand what's going on, but I want the full experience, so I'll keep biding my time until I can watch the first episode with full subtitles.

Now the 'Rooftop Prince' and 'King 2 Hearts' are, sadly, over I'm happy to have 'I Do, I Do' and 'Big' to fill in the empty space. I was thinking about 'Ghost' because the concept seems interesting and 'Dr. Jin' because I love JaeJoong. Let's hope for a great summer of KDrama! :)

I Do, I Do- New KDrama

Kim Sun Ah is starring in a new drama called I Do, I Do. the drama has already started production and is slated to start on May 30th on MBC after the conclusion of King 2 Hearts wraps up. Kim Sun Ah has been one of my favorite actresses since Sam Soon, and I'm happy she's back for another show.
When I first read the news about this show, however, I had mixed feelings for a few reasons. The first is that the male lead opposite her is Lee Jang Woo, who I nothing about. He is best known for his roles in Glory Jane (2011) and Smile Again (2010), but I didn't watch either of those.Will this guy be able to match up to Sun Ah's acting chops?
The second reason, is the concept of the show: Sun Ah will play as Hwang Ji An, a successful shoe designer who has a one night stand with Park Tae Gang, played by Jang Woo. As it turns out, he's a new employee, and that one night stand resulted in conception. Hwang Ji An also meets a handsome doctor while all of this is going on and, of course, must choose which guy to stick with.
What I really don't want to see is a wishy-washy character. The description for Hwang Ji An, is that she is a alpha-girl, a no- nonsense woman who has made a name and career for herself. I hope that writers can keep that in mind as the show goes on.
I will be watching this show, and til the end most likely, because I can't pass up the opportunity to watch Sun Ah. She's the best, and hopefully this show will just add to the list of great dramas that I have watched.

Even the boys want to try the pretty shoes!
