I went to see a musical today, which reminded me that I haven’t gotten around to posting an update on the recently discharged from the military Joo Ji Hoon. Originally there was talk last September that he was doing a drama when he returned (the SBS sageuk Dapyungsu, which is currently in the hands of my Lee Jun Ki and he’s considering it when he gets out next month), but Joo Ji Hoon elected to return to his stage roots as his first post military project (he got his acting start in the musical Don Juan). It makes sense since he was active in stage productions while he was in the military, plus the stage is a much more intimate and impactful medium. He attended a press conference at the end of November to announce his taking the lead in the musical adaptation of Dr. Zhivago, which is scheduled to premiere on January 27th. Anyone in Seoul should check it out, especially if you are a Joo Ji Hoon fan. I must say he’s looking fantastic and I’m looking forward to watching his career get back on track.

He looks really good but then again he always did. I love his facial features.
Oh Shin-Goon is back....he looks good with clean cut hair....and he has a good voice....
now I don't have to be confused on whose a man and not in Korean showbiz as long as they have that military cut on thier head it's safe to admire these men...uhm so when will Lee Min Ho, Kim Bum, Ji Hoo, and the guy with Park Shin Hye in heartstrings I think will go to Military training????
And Si Won of course.... ;-)
Ahh Ji-hoon, happy to see him so fresh, manly and healthy. I watched Ma Wang, Goong and Naked Kitchen many times during his absent. And yet, those were fail attempts to cure the longing... Now that he's back~~~ ...Come to noona darling... You need rebound, I do too... /winks
Aw, he's back! Before the MS, I honestly thought they would never let him come back, but yay for a new musical!
Wow, he looks so grown up! I hope he can overcome his past and have a successful career. Love him.
He is like my first korean crush, oh how I missed goong days.
