dangermousieI wonder - is 2011 turning into the year which will teach me that my favorite pastime of jumping to conclusions about dramas before they air is, in fact, wrong? Say it ain't so! First we had Secret Garden (which I thought looked dull from promos, and then I watched and fell in love), then City Hunter (trainwreck promos, amazing drama) and now possibly Warrior Baek Dong Soo?
Much as I adore sageuks, I was not going to check out this one - the cast seemed too young and none of the male leads were familiar to me except Yoo Seung Ho who, at 17, gave me shudders as one of the main leads of a sageuk, which is, in retrospect, ironic. Plenty of sageuk characters are young men. It's just I am so used tosex gods actors who play them be a good 10+ years older than their on-screen age, see Song Il Gook in Kingdom of the Winds and Bae Yong Joon in Legend, two dramas I adore, that when an actual 17-yr-old plays a 17-yr-old it feels weird.
Anyway, I was not planning to check it out but then![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
momosan liked it and then I saw the 6-min trailer:
I WANT I WANT I WANT I WANT! It looks frelling amazing!
But still, am a little unsure, as old prejudices die hard, so a poll for my flisties.
