Are we all going to watch this Hong Sisters Drama?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MDL Link: Gong Yoo's Big


The cast has been assembled and now it’s time to begin production on Big, the body-swapping Hong Sisters romantic comedy set to air on KBS in just over another month. The drama held its initial table read a week ago, though we’re only now getting to see the stills featuring stars Gong Yoo, Lee Min-jung, Jang Hee-jin, and Suzy.

(You can barely see a few other Hong sisters regulars, like Choi Ran and Ahn Seok-hwan, who have been in a number of the duo’s past dramas, often paired. Perhaps they’ll have another love connection this time as well; at this point the meta joke is practically half the point of casting them.)


Despite the title, the plot actually isn’t like Tom Hanks’ Big after all, since we’re dealing with two discrete identities. Rather than starting Gong Yoo’s character out young and aging him overnight, an 18-year-old’s spirit takes up residence in the 30-something hero’s body. Lee Min-jung is the woman who finds herself in a predicament when her fiancé suddenly isn’t her fiancé anymore; she plays a quirky character with apparently hilarious dialogue. Can’t wait to hear it.

Suzy was also at the reading, though her character doesn’t make her entrance until Episode 3; she’ll be the teenage girl that our teenage hero has a crush on.

Big premieres on June 4 on KBS, and will be a Monday-Tuesday drama. Who’s ready for Gong Yoo’s comeback?

Gong Yoo & Lee Min Jung start filming ‘Big’ → Gong Yoo and Lee Min Jung are coming back to drama and have already carried out the filming of the first segments. Recently the casting of the actors Gong Yoo and Lee Min Jung has been confirmed for KBS 2TV’s ‘Big’ and on April 23rd, the first filming took place together with the rest of the cast members. The premier of ‘Big’ is scheduled for June so there is about two months of time till then, but to get their teamwork going and to avoid having to shoot as they go, the first filming already took place earlier than other dramas. An insider of the drama said, “The filming took place with a friendly mood with Gong Yoo and Lee Min Jung. It was a bit of an early first filming but they say the chemistry of the actors and staff was good. The feel is good.” In reality, both Gong Goo and Lee Min Jung have not worked on a drama in a while so it could possibly have been awkward but it is said that the filming was done with an easygoing mood. Gong Yoo in particular has starred in the movie ‘The Crucible’ last year which gathered 4.66 million moviegoers and is coming back to drama five years after MBC drama ’1st Shop of Coffee Prince’ in 2007. ‘Big’ is a fantasy melodrama about a doctor in his 30′s with some impressive specs who suddenly possesses the soul of a pubescent teenager and a flustered temporary teacher. ‘Big’ will follow drama ‘Love Rain’ in June.
