If you haven't seen Gong Yoo's newest drama, Big 빅, then you're missing out on a LOT! Gong Yoo had 2 movies (The Crucible-2011, Finding Mr. Destiny-2010) since his release from the army. But this is his first drama after the Coffee Prince (2007) phenomenon.
Yay! I love his character as Kang Kyungjoon's soul on Seo Yoonjae's body!!! It's such a joy seeing Gong Yoo act all childish and petty and randomly spouting extremely awkward english expressions every now and then ㅋㅋㅋ. It does appear like Kang Kyungjoon's spitefulness and playfulness were magnified A LOT when his soul switched to Seo Yoonjae's body. He was off the charts crazy which was perfect with Gong Yoo's portrayal hahah!
My favorite scene so far is Kang Kyungjoon's dinner table struggle with Gil Daran when Daran's father offered him a beer. His facial expressions were just INSANE! It must have been so much fun shooting this scene.
Following the recent trend of upper body exposures for Episode 1 of kdramas, Gong Yoo must of course reveal his ripped torso like the rest of them. He also had exposure scenes on Episode 2 haha. Not that I'm complaining but I sure hope they won't randomly force any succeeding nudity. I mean we get it, Gong Yoo has chocolate abs from here to infinity but his charms go well beyond his muscular built.
We are only 2 episodes into this… but I'm pretty excited! Back during my Coffee Prince days, I went as far as giving out Coffee Prince DVDs as Christmas gifts to my friends! That is of course, with the intention of getting them as addicted as myself and finding avenues to share my overflowing happiness. Needless to say, I'm having really high hopes that Big will take me to the same level (although now I know better than to force friends on my Korean fandom hihi). I will always credit Gong Yoo oppa for getting me started into serious hallyu fanaticism so I'm cheering him on on his new project. HWAITING!!!! ^^
