Me too. I’ve been waiting for her comeback for a long time, but I also feel a little worried about this project.…
The age gap in the drama is around 27 years, so it’s going to be hard to hide that visually. They can’t really make her look much younger or him much older, so the difference will likely be noticeable. For some viewers, that might make certain romantic scenes, like kissing, feel a bit uncomfortable. That said, I think what matters most is the chemistry and how believable the relationship feels. If the acting and storytelling are strong, many people will be able to look past the age gap. I’m still really looking forward to it.
I will watch for Kim Hee Ae for sure. But her characters (strong, intelligent, intense) started to feel quite similar after “The world of the married”, so I hope she can show more variety in her acting compared to her previous projects(Queenmaker, The whirlwind, A Normal Family). In particular, she should try to change how she expresses emotions like crying or being surprised, since many people have pointed out that her characters often feel the same and exaggerated.
