The shock of recognition

[Soju]

I'd been thinking, "The actress who plays Yeongmi sure looks familliar". Then, suddenly, it clicked: "Yi Yuri" = "Lee Yoo-ri".

DOH!!! And just a few days ago, I had been wondering what she'd been up to lately.

I'm usually pretty bad at placing actors' previous roles, but this is inexcusable! I mean, this is Lee Yoo-ri!

Or Yi Yuri.

I did the same thing last week...


'She sure looks familiar..."

[Lucy]

Hm, I don't know her. I'll have to go look her up.

[Soju]

She's probably most remembered in around here as "the younger sister" in 'Yellow Handkerchief" and 'So This Is Love".

According to K Wiz, she was also in 'Wife', which I've pretty much put out of my head.

[TheBo]

Ahh. She's the one I thought was the younger sister in "Phoenix" (but it wasn't her).

Oh, yes, Wife, that lovely confection of frustration and disappointment - for the VIEWER. Snort.

I'm not sure who said this, but

Be careful what you put in that head of yours; once it's there, you will never, ever, be able to get it out.

Try as I might to prevent it, it's coming back: She wa the idealistic hospital intern, and potential love interest of Kim Seung Soo, who was written out of the show early on. She was "assigned to a different hospital".


Why I can remember this, but be so confused about did I see a drama about the establishment of the Choeson dynasty (see the 'Two historical references' thread in the Sejong board), I don't know.

[TheBo]

Yah! I remember that! One of our first experiences with "mysterious transfers" (I reference, of course, the disappearance of the plucky sidekick in Phoenix).

I've not been watching this show, but this morning, I turned the tv on about 10:45 to be sure to catch the beginning of "Hometown Over the Hill", and recognized marvelous Geom, son of DJY.
Now I just might tune into this story on Friday and Saturday, just to see what kind of a role he plays.
