Before co-starring in the upcoming drama "My Lovely Girl," both Rain and f(x)'s Krystal admitted to some mutual fandom.

In a recent promotional video for the drama, Rain had kind words for his 12-year-younger co-star.

"I have recently become a fan of Krystal so I am very thankful we are able to film this drama together," said singer-actor Rain, who is also known as Jung Ji Hoon. "You will be able to see a different side of Krystal through this drama."

In the drama, Krystal plays Se Na, a woman who dreams of becoming a songwriter.

When she found out that she was cast in the drama with Rain, she also had kind words to say about him.

"I can't believe that I'll be starring in a drama with Ji Hoon oppa," she said. "I never once imagined that something like this would happen."

In the romantic comedy, Rain plays Hyun Wook, a music producer and composer.

"I'm glad I got to meet such a cool character. 'My Lovely Girl' is a fun romance drama that everyone will enjoy, and all the actors are currently working well together."

Hyun Wook was originally in love with Se Na's sister who died. Then he meets Se Na and falls in love again. Hyun Wook and Se Na are two character who have experienced much pain. They will try to heal that pain through music and by loving each other.

Krystal, who like Rain, began her career as a singer, was attracted to the story because it is set in the music industry. She could also relate to Se Na's determined and positive character.

"I really want to try my hand at portraying Se Na, who overcomes all sorts of difficulties and ends up meeting her true love," said Krystal.

In the past Krystal had one other singer-actor k-drama boyfriend. In "The Heirs" Krystal played Lee Bo Na and Kang Min Hyuk of CNBLUE was her boyfriend. Although she made her debut in 2010, "My Lovely Day" will be her first leading role.

The drama is also a comeback role for Rain, who has not done a drama since 2010 when he appeared in "The Fugitive: Plan B." He recently filmed "The Prince" with Bruce Willis.

The drama will replace 'It's Okay, It's Love" on Sept. 17. But before that five of the cast members will appear on the variety show "Running Man."

Besides Rain and Krystal, the cast includes Park Young Gyu, Kim Ki Bang, Alex, Infinite's L, Hoya, BESTie's Hye Ryeong and Dani.

I guess there is enough significant celeb status pull from the other cast members that Rain's presence won't jeopardize the drama too much...

How does the public feel about him right now? I'd still be pissed. Wouldn't be able too watch make money on the screen...

Anyway...can't wait!!!

The image of them together doesn't sit right with me. Krystal looks younger than she normally does somehow. This some Lolita bullshit.

They really tried it with the bangs, but it's not working. Her speaking voice is so childlike too. I can't get behind this.

i don't mind large age gaps, but i am not feeling this couple, judging from the teasers they feel very awkward and distant, i don't buy it.

I find that way more creepy/disturbing that the age gap because at least both are adults. That replacement thing doesn't feel right at all.

it's really gross. i don't get why they always have to have love triangles between siblings anyway (so weird), but this makes it even worse. someone seeing you as a replacement for your dead sibling is so wrong to me, and i'm an only child.

Im all for Krystal getting some action with hot guys but that picture...he looks like her dad. But hey, she was the reason I watched Heirs so I might like this drama

Date: 2014-09-11 03:42 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] gray-fairy.livejournal.com
Like her dad, really? o_O Maybe it's just me but I think he looks way younger in that picture than he usually looks in music shows and stuff. If I didn't know his age, I'd say he's around 26 or so tbh. At least people his age I know look waaaay older.
In any case, I don't see how this is a "pedobear" case like some people are saying. That's used for relationships with prepubescent minors, not even with adolescents, less alone with 20 y/o adults.

Because it's totally okay to call guys with younger girls pedophiles since it's apparently not offensive at all to be called a pedophile when you're seeing a grown ass woman.

The age gap is far sure, it's a TV show, they're not really going out back and fucking using that term is real rude, I'm sure if it had been some hot guy, and an older girl people would be calling her a cougar.

I get that large age gaps are uncomfortable, because I don't really like +8~10 y/o gaps either, but calling this a "pedo" case is way too much. At least she's a 20 y/o adult, it's not like Lee Saeron, Kim Soohyun or Yeo Jingoo being paired with 20-something adults when they're legit minors.

And I also don't think he looks like her dad. He actually looks younger than he usually looks on tv imo.

Even in those situations they are acting in a show, calling the actors pedophiles is reaaally rude to me because they don't do the casting, and a lot of time you don't even know your cast members before you sign up for the show. In a movie, the only age gap that matters is the one they are portraying imo.

Yeah I think he looks younger here too I agree!

i feel bad for the older actresses (by older I mean mid to late 20s) who could have easily played this role.

same. older actresses get so slighted.

I'm starting to sound like a netizen but there is no reason for them to cast an idol for this when there are so many talented under utilized actresses in their 20s

IDK if I'm going to watch this...I like Krystal in Heirs, and obv a Rain fan, but the plot sounds messy and I'm creeped out by a guy dating someone's sister after she dies. Like, no.

LOL @ anyone calling this PEDO-anything. At the most it would be ephebophilia, except you know, she's a grown woman. 12yr age gap is a large one, but when I was 21 I had much, much larger age gaps btwn me and the ppl I dated, so I'm not really bothered.

idk why they gave her bangs, she looks younger than she's looked in years. i'm okay with the age gap if they can sell it based on chemistry, but i'm not really feeling it so far. anyway, it should be fun watching myungsoo trying to act regardless.

i hope krystal took some acting classes and she doesn't suck too much bc netizens will pulverize her. rain isn't a good actor himself, but still.

This Sh!t is kinda giving me the creeps

Its a mistake for them to make her have bangs since now she looked way younger with it. Plus, the plot sounds a bit like 'Which star are you from?' and I probably wont be watching this.

But Rain looked really good. He looked young with this hairstyle. :3

...Am I the only one feeling this? They're both adults, so I don't get why everyone feeling something creepy from it.

They look so cute together and I wouldn't be surprised if they came out with a dating scandal tbh *heart eyes*

Reminds me of this famous singer in my country, who dated one girl but ended up with her sister (who he got pregnant). I don't even know how they are all cordial now. Even though it was 20+ years ago, people still remember it. People still largely speculate that his wistful/yearning love songs are for his original girlfriend and not the girl who ended up his wife, so imagine the mindfuck that is for the two sisters. For me, no matter how "nice guy" his image is, he still creeps me out because of that.

tl;dr homeboy should have widened his romantic hunting grounds outside one family, jesus.

I love Rain so I'll probably check it out. I just wish they'd given Krystal a more mature look.
