Choi Ji-woo and Yoon Sang-hyun as Can’t Lose’s warring couple
Choi Ji-woo and
Yoon Sang-hyun play a couple mid-divorce in MBC’s
Can’t Lose, and it looks like we’ll be seeing our fair share of bickering.
PD
Lee Jae-dong expressed his satisfaction with the
chemistry between the two, which is a good thing since a drama like this
is pretty much held up by chemistry. While there’s sure to be other
plotlines involved, really, those are setpieces for the couple to go at
it, whether in a romantic sense or a dogs-and-cats-at-war sense. Usually
in a rom-com the bickering’s a stand-in for courtship, but since this
couple’s already been there, done that, I’m guessing that not all their
fighting will have romantic undertones.
In this scene, the two lawyers go at it on the rooftop of their law
firm building. Ooh, a divorce romance AND workplace romance, rolled into
one? I can only imagine the weirdness/hostility/discomfort of huddling
around that office’s water cooler. And, hopefully, they’ll throw in some
comic office politics as well — can you imagine having to take sides in
that? Awkward!
The drama also stars
Kim Jung-tae, Jo Mi-ryung, Kim Ja-ok, and
Sung Dong-il. Lots of solid supporting actors, so yay.
Can’t Lose is still scheduled for an August 24 premiere,
which has elicited some confusion/speculation regarding the current
drama in that Wednesday-Thursday timeslot,
You’ve Fallen For Me. As you may know, that show’s been afflicted with a number of minor setbacks, like the
PD transferring to writing duties, and Park Shin-hye’s recent car accident causing the
delay of one episode and some small
script alterations.
You’ve Fallen For Me aired a special instead of an episode
for that one day, meaning that it now has the option to either extend by
an episode or to drop one. Current speculation is leaning toward
dropping one, which would mean that it ends on Episode 15. The drama’s
production, however, has countered that no decisions have been made yet,
and that they are considering multiple options.
