![]() Lee is single and hasn’t been public about any romantic endeavors like many actors in South Korea. He recently appeared in the independent project “Everyone’s Lies” which he played a detective. Their relationship will be entertaining and endearing to watch, especially because of the quirkiness that is Nam Se Hee.In the show, he plays a character who suffers from Prosopagnosia or face blindness – the disease affects the brain and makes it difficult for a person to recognize faces, including his/her own, and is the opposite of people who have superior facial recognition abilities. Their personalities are very different, but there is a common need that both of them fulfill in each other, which is why I think they work. Jung So Min and Lee Min Ki seemed like an unlikely pair, but seeing their interaction and character storylines, they’re pretty perfect, and I’m loving their chemistry. Roommates of the opposite sex who are living together, not by choice but by accident, is a storyline that seems obvious, but I was happy about the results. This is a K-drama that I can foresee continuing to impress with depth and a great script. “Because This Is My First Life” seemed like a predictable K-drama at first, and apart from the two main leads, I didn’t have very high expectations. Even though Yoon Ji Ho feels as though she’s failed life, she continues to strive for her dreams. She gets knocked down, but gets back up and deals with the lemons life gives her. Yoon Ji Ho’s constant pressure of trying to appease her family and friends while continuing to pursue her dreams is basically adulthood in a nutshell. Her desperate willingness to become a successful script writer while dealing with a lot of life’s punches are just too relatable and too good. How is Lee Min Ki able to play such opposite characters?! This is just a testament to how great of an actor Lee Min Ki really is.Īs a writer, I love Jung So Min’s character, Yoon Ji Ho. I still can’t get over the fact that Joo Byung Hee and Nam Se Hee are played by the same character. His character becomes so refreshingly unique, and his lines are so unpredictable and unprecedented he really keeps you on your toes. His life is dependent on statistics and factual evidence, and most of his decisions are made through calculations and spreadsheets - doesn’t seem like a character we can fall in love with, right?ĭespite his strange quirks and qualities, he really does make you warm up to him by the end of the second episode. Nam Se Hee is a character who seems cold, heartless, and not capable of love. I almost wanted him to play the same character in “Because This Is My First Life,” and was caught a bit off guard when we were introduced to his character in the first episode. Lee Min Ki as Joo Byun Hee in “ Shut Up! Flower Boy Band.” When they finally run into each other at home, they are shocked to find out that they are actually the opposite sex. Although they are caught off guard, they decide to stay roommates, as the hassle to find a new roommate for Nam Se Hee is just too unbearable. After a week of living together and never seeing each other, they decide to sign a contract to live together permanently. Because of some miscommunication, Nam Se Hee thinks Yoon Ji Ho is a male and Yoon Ji Ho thinks Nam Se Hee is a female. While looking for a housemate, he is introduced to Yoon Ji Ho (Jung So Min), who he has actually never met in person. However, knowing that he has to pay off his debt, he decides that he needs a housemate. He is against the idea of marriage and would rather spend his days with his cat. He bought a townhouse and is in the process of paying off the loan he took out to purchase it. The storyline involves a quirky computer designer by the name of Nam Se Hee (Lee Min Ki), who has his life pretty much figured out. The first two episodes of “Because This Is My First Life” garnered some good ratings, and especially with the way things ended in the second episode, I can predict that it will continue to deliver! Just look at how cute these two are! Jung So Min has been getting a lot of love for her role in the recent drama “ Father Is Strange.” And who else was excited to find out that Lee Min Ki was making a comeback?! Both of them are well-seasoned actors, so we know that the drama is in good hands. I was through the roof when I found out that these two were cast as the main leads. TvN has premiered its brand new romantic comedy, “ Because This Is My First Life,” starring Lee Min Ki and Jung So Min.
