Yes!

They've just started filming the adult portion of Five Fingers (which is a seriously unfortunate name, btw - it makes me think of either some weird sex act or theft. The manga this is very loosely based on is called Piano Forest. They should have stuck to that).

Which means? If you guessed 'publicity stills for Joo Ji Hoon,' you would be right. Voila:



Now, I am not sure whose bright idea it was to give him that horrible haircut and equally horrible outfit, which is very 'dweeb circa 1992' but I don't even care! Joo Ji Hoon is back!

Also, to look on the bright side, at least he didn't end up with the blinding checkered suit his male co-star Ji Chang Wook was sporting. Plus, we now know why he is an angsty angsty pianist - anyone would be angsty having to sport that get-up!

Seriously, teasing aside (I mock because I love!), I am so excited, it's sick! I pretty much assumed I'd never see him on the small screen again! Now please please let this drama have good ratings so that MBC and KBS lift their ban against him and/or he'll get a chance to make another drama. Pleaaaaase!

I love him so very much so I'm super excited to see him again, but that haircut is tragic.

Seriously, was it done by a blind person?

Oy! That hairdo needs to go! And the shirt is equally apalling. I guess they thought he's too pretty so this is their attempt at making him less appealing. ;P

Apparently, he also lost weight for the drama which is insane - it's not like he's ever been chubby in his whole adult life!

The haircut makes me think of all these 1990s dramas or young Jared Leto :)

If that is their attempt to not make him too pretty, they are doomed though - I loved him even when he had a bunch of people killed in Mawang so a dweeby hairdo is nothing compared to that.

I just fell in love with Lee Min Ho with his BoF croissant hair, so I should be able to get past Joo Ji Hoon's atrocious haircut and dorky, completely buttoned-up shirt since I already adore him.

I have long come to the conclusion that designers for kdramas all must first past the test to prove their blindness. That is the only explanation.

He is grown up and got rid of this anorexic look. I like it. Hair is just hair.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I am shallow, alas :)

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

his hair is so silly, especially because his hair during the script reading looked really good.

also i'm weirdly happy that the drama will be 30 episodes long and not 50.

and i'm praying so hard that it will hit at least 20%.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I hope it does well. Please please please

btw are you watching oguri shun's new drama rich man poor woman? if not you should! it's been only two episodes but i'm already in love with it, many people have been hating on the drama because it feels very kdrama ish, but shun’s character is just so loveable to me and it is not as cliché as the plot seems.

Just started, love it

Please tell me that there is a childhood part set in the 1990s that required him to have this hair.

Is it possible to lose more weight for Joo Ji Hoon? I could barely see him when he stands sideways. He gonna disappear like a piece pf paper. He makes his female costars look big comparatively.

Joo Ji Hoon! *rubbing my ten fingers together in excitement*

Seriously, I am not sure how he can lose weight short of lopping off a limb.
