A Tribute to Delightful Girl, Choon Hyang

This k-series had really captured my heart. I really love both Mong Ryong and Choon Hyang...how I wish they would make a sequel of this series. I'm really dying to know of what may happen after all the things they went through together. The cameo appearance of MR & CH in the series "My Girl" is really intriguing...undoubtedly they are still the quarrelsome couple but beneath the their petty quarrels is a love unmeasurable for each other. I mean if there's an uproar for Goong's second season...well, why not for DGCH!

I got this translated article from jaehee forums:

when this campus comedy series was formally announced and casting was still in the works , jae hee and han chaeyoung's youthful vigor fitted the roles right away . when they conducted a survey among the fans on who the most passionate and romantic actor is on their list, one of the name that surfaced, from last year's 3 iron movie, venice film festival's best actor and korea 's blue dragon best new actor awardee, jae hee. the fans thought the lead actor's physical appearance should be somewhat similar to a heavenly god, ( heavenly god in korea and hongkong likewise means megastars ) and should possess the characteristics such as being kind and charming , a semblance of lee byun hyun or bae yong jun more or less. there's also the wide -eyed han chae young, she gained the monicker as barbie doll of korea because she was once the spokeperson of makers of barbie in the united states. the fans also thought she resembles the mainland superstar 黃奕 very much, and has the same elegant built.

interestingly, while shooting the kissing scene, the staff were also capturing NG scenes, initailly the two were at the wrong position, and the angle was not right, the director disliked hanchaeyoung's kiss, they found it lacking in intensity, but they actually let the two stars kiss for more than ten times consecutively, to get the the right angle and perfect shot.
