Jang Geun Seok Holds Fanmeeting in Seoul and Says Farewell to Mu Gyul

Jang Geun Seok held his Seoul fan meeting last night, performing all his recorded songs from the Mary Stayed Out Night OST, and shared some news about his career in 2011. Other than releasing his first solo album in March, he will be holding a series of concerts in Asia (Taiwan, Japan, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Shanghai) thereafter, and will commence filming for a movie in March slated for a summer release. He mentioned it was a movie that he had already accepted, which makes it the K-movie adaptation of the manga Kimi wa Petto (which has already been adapted into a J-dorama starring Koyuki and Matsumoto Jun). I’m not sure if Han Ye Seul is still onboard, but they need another slightly older, super sleek, outwardly cold but inwardly brittle actress.

 At the FM, when asked which co-star actress he was most satisfied working with, Jang Geun Seok didn’t even hesitate and just stated Moon Geun Young. In his mind, she’s an actress that doesn’t ever capitulate in her craft. He said that when they were acting together, they discussed their scenes, and even often quarreled. Moon Geun Young has very strong opinions, whether its towards acting, or in other areas. In many ways, they are very similar, making them friends who see things the same way. When they were filming M3, Jang Geun Seok was so surprised to discover another person that was pretty much identical to himself. He says they still keep in touch, and sooner or later will be going out for drinks.

Jang Geun Seok also confessed that his favorite song from the M3 OST is “My Precious”. I’ll be on record stating that even if they never confess to dating, I believe that they are genuinely good friends first and foremost who have a special connection with each other based on their personalities and career development. Hoping they have adorable Geun babies is just me having some fun shipping a truly magical young couple. However, my addiction recovery takes serious steps back everytime one or both of them do something like this. I can’t complain, they make my job tracking them fun. Oh my precious cuties, keep on rocking in your careers!

  • Koala, brilliant minds think alike. I was just translating the same thing you did and posted it in the comments section in your previous thread. Did he really refer to her as "friend"? I'm sad if he did because he generally doesn't lie, which means they're not dating and there goes my dream of Baby Geuns.

    Although all those comments he made could also be construed as a public declaration of his affection and intentions... maybe I'll go with that. hahahaha

    Thank you, Ockoala, for stating your thoughts on record...it is exactly what is on my mind, and what i have said abt them in one of your earlier posts in your blog here on the Geun-Geun couple, esp from watching them on the KBS Awards Show and i echo your every word...

    However, anything is possible...true friendships can and have become more...besides, i am of the opinion that men and women cannot really be JUST good friends unless they are not attracted to each other physically and emotionally...and my husband can vouch for that...he said he has always felt it with the women he has known in his life...and before he asked me to marry him, he was sure to let me know abt it...

    btw, my husband and i did not start off as friends...in fact we clashed and argued so frequently...then, we found something in ourselves that bound our hearts together...something like what Kang Mu Gyul and Wi Mary went through in M3...which is why i LOVE them so much...they remind me so much of my husband and i...

    • Awww... you and your hubby...how sweet. I completely agree about the guys/girls can't be friends bit if they're attracted to each other, either already or potentially. As I half-jokingly say to my friends, hot guys are for dating and unattractive ones are for befriending. Why torture yourself unnecessarily?

      • haha, LizzyD, thank you so much for your thoughts... ('',)

        and i love how you phrased these words :
        "hot guys are for dating and unattractive ones are for befriending. Why torture yourself unnecessarily?"

        soo true...hehe... ('',)...
        which is why i keep my distance from any attractive guys i meet at work, which is, thankfully, a rare occurrence...haha

    • Kld, your romance sounds like a story from Mills & Boon, lol!

      I stroke my hubby off my list of potentials when I first met him. Till this day I never knew what made me accept his proposal but I slowly fell in love with him after we got engaged n then married. Now we have 4 girls and life is beautiful (that is, until I got hooked on the Geuns and it has been reduced to a non existent life...)

      • Sorry typo: kdl

        Here I am, sitting in darkness at 6 am, typing with one finger on my iPhone.... you see what I mean abt my no-life? If only Suk knows the effect he has on us, he would probably say we're not Geunies but Goonies...

      • LOL!!! oh, F1968, you make me laugh my head off reading your post...haha!!! 1-finger-typing in the dark? haha!!! and how right you are - we are not Geunies but Goonies, Loonies, Zannies...but im not complaining cos i LOVE them so much...

        and how wonderful to have a happy family with 4 beautiful girls even though as you said you once didn't consider someone husband material but then when you are fated to be together, nothing can stop it...

        altho my husband and i did not start off as friends, we are now each other's best friends and lovers...and i am still hoping and praying that JGS and MGY will find in each other what the other needs to complement and complete each other...haha...

    • If he's really filming My Pet, the character has long hair, so if they follow the manga then he probably can't cut it until filming is over. I think that's why he grew it out to begin with, then left it for M3. It's not mentioned in anything I've seen so far from yesterday.

      • thanks for the input, LizzyD...('',)

        very interesting...he did mention abt the need to lose 3 kg for his role in My Pet when he was in Spore for his Asia Tour last year...but not abt the hairstyle...

      • do too hope that he doesn't cut it yet.. ohooohhh... the boy does have long silky hair... mama mia... sounds like a commercial.... ha ha...

      • haha...how i LOVE how you describe JGS's hair...and how i agree wholeheartedly...haha...

        btw, ladies, do you realise how FORTUNATE and BLESSED MGY was for having had the 'legal' right (at least in Kdrama land) to touch, hug, kiss and basically paw at JGS so freely in M3???

        our dear Ockoala once said in one of her recaps of M3 that the 2 of them are the most touchy-feely couple she has ever seen in Kdrama because they seem to be touching each other in every episode...haha...just reminiscing abt sumtg so DELICIOUSLY appealing abt the Geun-Geun couple...haha...

      • Raarrrgh!!! they can't seem to get their hands off each other. was rewatching some of the ep. today.. YES.. there is skinship in every scene whenever there is an opportunity...
        Maybe they are trying to show their TRUE affection that way? [ I mean, subtly like they are acting but they do FEEL something?? oopps! me going wacky again... stop it! stop it!!! LOL

      • my dearest chingu ('',)

        please don't stop your dreaming...EVER...because like MGY said in her blog/website, when we have the same dream, it may just COME TRUE!!! oooohhhh...just dream on my dear chingu, for the sake of our dear Geun-Geun couple...

        and you saw for yourself how touchy-feely they were in M3 and who knows...what you said abt them expressing their REAL feelings thru their ACTING in M3 may be true, so we just have to wait and see if they confirm it...hopefully... ('',)

  • ...Aww that's so cute XD <3

    But on the topic of the movie...I'm still not sure how I feel about it...I'm already loyal to the JDrama version and Matsujun...with hints of Eita....but I love Jang Geun Seuk...so i'm just going to pretend that it's not based off the same thing...I'm pretty sure they won't be following the manga though because it's too long to fit into one movie....XD

  • Yeah, it looks like they're really good friends. I hope they remain friends for a looong time.

    I'm afraid to admit maybe that's all they're gonna be (maybe they're too similar?), but hey, we can still keep dreaming about the magical GeunGeun babies. XD

    • Celebrities need someone who can truly understand their situation, the conflict and all the hardship of being a public figure. I have a close friend who models and travels a lot, but her guy relationship does not last long. Eventually they get jealous and has suspicions that she might be cheating while away. Seems they don`t have the confidence. But with JGS & MGY, being in the same status and situations, I truly believe their friendship will eventually lead to love.
      I`m in denial for any other situations! Geun-Geun 4ever!

  • I cheer them to get married soon or later. Ha ha ha
    Why?
    1. JGS needs someone who understands him, speaking, dreaming, prefering the same.
    2. JGS needs someone who can be on his side, drinking maybe, discussing is ok.
    3. JGS waits his girl for long time, finally he meet her, as we know who is she.
    4. MGY is a good person, smart, bright, delightful, and mature.
    5. MGY understands JGS.
    6. I want to see them happy. I know somebody may not like JGS who is his or her idol to get married. Guy! you cannot keep him single forever.
    In addition, I believe that understanding makes a couple stay together forever. Some people may like to fight because they think that it is excited. However, you don't want to keep fighting every day with your husband, right?Even though MR and MG are different, they have the same dream, having a happy family. She can fullfill him, and he can fullfill her. My husband and I , for instance, get married because we are the best friend of each other. We discuss about life, enivironment,and so on. Something we agree with each other, but something we don't. However, we agree more than disagree. Guen-Guen Fighting.

    • waaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaa,,,,I giving you 100000000000000000000000 score,,,,,,,
      I think like that coz' total your reason are really true. I love them very much and when I see them so I am happy .I wish them become true couple in real life.The family wants husband and wife are understand each other for making happy family and they are similar each other in many way. Now I don't have family and don't have my boy friend that I want my groom is understand me and we are similar many way too. I hopefull GeunGeun met each other for in real life.Guen-Guen Fighting.

  • I agree with you guys about a man and woman relationship . True! There is not much of such a close friend relationship last long between them, unless they hang out with the group of old friends . If only 2 of them to be closed friend, they will either date or getting away from each other latter.
    I just have a feeling that Geun Geun couple just can't avoid to meet each other in their road of destiny . Each of their road of destiny will be crossed again and again because they are bright, and talented actors.
    Look, they will definately will meet again and again in many future events, like award presenting, KBS, MBC, SBS awards . I feel that eventually, they will realize they are meant for each other.

  • Huaaa he already set for filming,is it going to be drama/film.why do I got the feeling of jealouse?JKS will be with other girl!I want MGY in kimi wa petto but that would impossible...I just pray that what happen between binnie and SGH will happen to them..

  • Wow, my balloon just landed and I am sitting here drinking a cup of coffee and thinking "why did I read between the lines?"

    I am going to watch the news now, it has happier things.

  • I don't know how jgs manages to do so many things in short time... poor thing he'll surely get skinner!!!! but i'm happy about the movie :D. we'll get a lots of news about him for sure, between the album, the tour and the movie :P
    btw i don't think men and women can be just friends, both or one will end up in love for sure (the last option so sad). perhaps right now they're just friends... but only time will tell if it'll develop in something more ;). as pijaku said jgs needs a girl and who can be better than mgy???? me too want him to be happy (i'd make him happy, sadly me don't know each other ;) )
    finally, i love everything he said about mgy, so sweet of him... and the fact is they're in contact and he wants to hang with her!!!!!
