dangermousieThe first teaser is out for idol Changmin's foray into acting. (Please imagine "acting" said in a best Calculon voice).
Oh good Lord.
I admit to having a sick anticipation for this - something tells me that as Heading to the Ground was to 2009 and Road N 1 was to 2010, Paradise Ranch will be to 2011. A.k.a. utter and sheer badness so sublime it almost goes back into being good.
Before Changmin fans flood me with hate mail, I think the guy has an amazing voice and can dance well from the few DBSK performing clips I've seen. But I fail to see how either of those is relevant unless they were doing a drama about rival opera singers or aspiring idols. He comes across like a human-shaped tree in the trailer.
Total newbie as lead + ridiculously stupid premise (it's as if they decided to make a twdrama in Korean) + leading lady who is uneven and only works well with a strong cast = DISASTER.
Oh, Joo Sang Wook, why are you in this again? As a cardboard-written secondary guy, no less. You are gorgeous as hell. You have great acting chops and can act circles around the rest of these people while blindfolded and drunk. You just came off a monster success where your storyline became a huge hit. Do the makers of this waste of celluloid have naked pictures of you, or something?
Lee Yeon Hee, I love you but you came off the ratings bonanza East of Eden where you starred opposite Sex On Legs a.k.a. Mr. Hallyu Star Song Seung Heon himself to - this? Being love interest of boybander attempting to act in a piece of idiotic fluff? Oh, Good Lord.
And while we are on the subject of Changmin - he doesn't look old enough to shave, needs to eat, and has a really weird, fish-like face. The guy is NOT attractive. At least his fellow bandmember Yunho, who out-cardboarded a packing box in Heading to the Ground, is brutally hot. Changmin can't even claim that.
WTF, makers, WTF!
