This is a spoiler picture for the upcoming episodes of “Loving you 1000 times“, the new SBS weekend drama that I’ve been following for the past week. WITH S2 is actually picking this one up, despite of the long ride we’ll be having lol (50 episodes), just because it has such an intriguing (and dramatic) storyline. I’ll tell you more about the drama after the cut…

Newbie actress Lee Si Young (Junjin’s ex-girlfriend; Gu Jun Pyo’s stalker -_-) plays as the ‘other woman’ in Ryu Jin’s life. Because his wife (played by actress Go Eun Mi) cannot get pregnant (problem with her uterus and ovaries), Ryu Jin’s mom made her daughter-in-law (Ryu Jin’s wife) lie to everyone that she is pregnant. Though the truth is that she ‘hired’ someone (Lee Soo Kyung) to be the surrogate mother. What’s crazy and complicated about it is that Lee Soo Kyung (Soulmate) will have a loveline story with Ryu Jin’s younger brother (played by Jung Gyu Woon).

Lee Soo Kyung’s character is very pitiful somewhat. She had to do this because of her father’s surgery expenses. She couldn’t let her beloved dad die because they had no money for his surgery. Therefore, she agreed to be the surrogate mother, though she’s still a virgin and unmarried, giving up her whole life for her dad. My heart breaks to see how she is all alone in this with noone to talk to. She can’t talk to her stepmom (her dad remarried after her mom died), nor can she talk to her older stepsister. This is the kind of drama where you don’t even have to wonder how it’ll all get worsen by the episodes, especially during this early stage. What I’m more surprised is the fact this news article and the spoiler pictures of Ryu Jin and Lee Si Young. I mean, already?! He’s drunk and took advantage of her, and lemme guess, will there be a one night stand? Aigoo, drama! LOL.. but isn’t this what makes it interesting about family drama on the weekends?

So far it’s been a thrilling ride with this drama, but I’m there whenever Ryu Jin is on it! LOL. Been adoring this guy ever since forever (he’s been in the business for about 15 years!), I think he’s been playing the 2nd fiddle for sometime, it’s time to see him on the spotlight! Sigh, though in this drama, it seems that Jung Gyu Woon is the main lead, along with Lee Soo Kyung. But for now, Ryu Jin, Lee Si Young and Go Eun Mi take the lead, as the story progresses. Oh, and also, I didn’t know who Go Eun Mi was until I watch this drama. Perfect actress for the role! ^^

Above pictures are taken from their personal sites as we know these two admitted openly about their relationship after they went off the legendary show “We Got Married”. “Gundam couple” is their nickname, as they’re both fans of this Japanese anime, and now, paparazzi and news reporters are noticing their first public picture together as a couple. Junjin seems to be really in love with her (SO CUTE), and so does she. I saw the Ogamdo press conference clip when Junjin stepped up on stage to give 2 bouquets. One for Kim Soo Ro (“Family Outing”) and the other one is for her – in which she received it shyly (she covered her face too… TOO CUTE). Hope they’ll last forever! ^^

Lee Si Young & Junjin’s first picture together, netizens say, “They’re so cute together!”

Actress Lee Si Young and Junjin (real name: Park Chung Jae) have released the first pictures taken together for public viewing.  She posted a selca (self-camera) taken picture of her and Junjin, though it’s a small picture, people can see just how happy they both are.  Lee Si Young’s face is bright, full of love, while Junjin seems to be on the phone but is aware of the picture taken.

In addition to these, in both of their websites, each of them posted the same front-page picture of Atom and Gundam, showing their same affections for each other.

Since they’ve declared publicly about their relationship, they have shown their affection to one another in public without hiding their feelings.  On July 11 in MBC “세상을 바꾸는 퀴즈’ (이하 ‘세바퀴’), Junjin admits through the phone, “Sometimes I’m so surprised by her beauty.” (OH~ SO CHEESY BUT SO SWEEEEET! lolz)

Both of them have given sweet gestures to each other in public events such as Men’s Health “Cool Guy” contest, Lee Si Young expressed her sense of humor while mentioning Junjin. And during “Ogamdo” press conference, Junjin surprised her with flowers as he came up on stage to give her the bouquet personally.  (and people were cheering for him keke!)

Singer Alex lookin’ good with his trademark black-framed glasses and that signature smile of his. It must have been weeks since we last heard from him. What a nice surprise!

Last year “Cool Guy” winner, Alex now as the judge

Singer Alex attended the 4th Cool Guy contest from Men’s Health magazine last night, July 2 at Grand Hilton Convention Center, Seoul.

The winners are as follows, group 8eight (Lee Hyun, Baek Chan, Nora) took the Best Singer award, actress Lee Si Young got the Best Health (female) award. Lee Si Young is now best-known as Junjin (Shinhwa member) real life girlfriend after they made public of their relationship (first couple from “We Got Married” who actually hooked up). As for the highest honorary award of 2009 is given to a very cool guy, actor Lee Bum Soo. The same awards have been given last years to Lee Seo Jin in 2007, and Alex in 2008. Lastly, for the 2009 Best Cover Model award is Super Junior Choi Si Won took home the 2009 Best Cover Model award.

Singer Alex, last year’s ‘Cool Guy’s award-winning best singer is invited to the event this year as one of the judges, along with designer Jang Gwang Hyo.

Pictures from last night’s event:

8eight

^I love their voice! 8eight deserves the award, fo’sho.

Lee Si Young

^I think she’s cute, but it’ll be nice if she stops bundle-up her hair like that >_> it’s getting old~

^Si Young and her signature shy laugh, mouth covered as she giggles

Lee Bum Soo

^Oooh~ manly~ facial hair looks good on him, me thinks ;) *wink wink @ Suz* lol~

Choi Si Won

^O_O Si Won looks like he has gained some weight… and a bit older. Matured, too.

Whoa. They finally announced this, huh? :)
Not sure if I like the new arrangement, especially after AlShin left this show, but ever since Hwanhee and Hwayobi are getting better and better, I think I’ll stick around to see how the show strives to go on.

Junjin and his new bride-to-be, Lee Si Young (Kingdom of the wind, Boys Over Flowers) will have their first premiere episode on WGM on January 25th – the same Sunday night with Daniel Henney’s appearance on SBS Family Outing. The PDs refused to announced whether Junjin and LSY will stay after the Lunar New Year’s Special, but for now, looks like they will be the new couple after Crown J and Seo In Young (finally) left the show.
I personally like the new couple (Lee Si Young is a great newcomer. Cute as well, and it’ll be good to see Junjin playing as her hubby) Though one thing I know is that after Alex and Shinae left WGM, the show seems to go downhill….
