Eye Candy : Ji Chang Wook for 1st Look

Ji Chang Wook's handsome visage is front and center as he embodies the "Forever Young" concept in this editorial for 1st Look magazine. The youthful charm of the 32 year old actor shines as he models a range of colorful and stylish looks. Chang Wook is currently starring in the drama Backstreet Rookie with Kim Yoo Jung which my husband and I are now watching. Judging by all the online reactions, this show is a little polarizing and I can see why. It's based on an adult webtoon that is being spun as a family friendly romance because it's on network so it suffers a bit of an identity crisis, there is one character portrayal which can be viewed as offensive and the plot is paper thin at this point. I'm into it because I'm just taking it for what it's worth, a fluffy live action manga with a sassy and assertive heroine and a slightly hapless but well meaning hero. While I love Chang Wook in action roles, he is just as skilled in comedy and his goofiness in this drama is totally endearing and adorable. Kim Yoo Jung is cute too and I'm glad he finally gets  to work with a skilled actress again but I wish they would tone down down her makeup. It's so heavy that it looks like a mask and that orange eyeshadow is ugly AF.

Ji Chang Wook is such a joy to look at:D Seriously though....that's great to know he's an awesome actor as well! I've never seen a show he's been on. I tried to watch Healer but only lasted one episode, so I should really give it another go.
PS OMG! Thank you for the Strangers From Hell suggestion. I love it! I am trying hard not to binge-watch it...LOLZ. I truly do love both Im Si Wan and Lee Dong Wook sooooo much. Dong Wook is sooooo good as a villain. Too handsome though really:D Imma gonna do a post on it soon!

I like Chang Wook. The golden mustard and purple colour combination in the last outfit is so retro but I love it. Yes, I don't like heavy, heavy makeup unless it's done tastefully because it's so far from what I do. My boyfriend and I just started Woo Assasins, literally moments ago so I can't tell you if I like it yet. Hope you have a bright new week, Rowena dear. <3

What fun photos! I like how each of the outfits has something a little unexpected with colour or print but he wears them all well! :)

Hope you had a great weekend! :)
