While K-ent is calling out sports movie Dream for NOT being a major breakout hit needed to reinvigorate the lackluster Chungmuro, K-netizens are not buying that argument and the movie production itself seems quite happy with what it’s achieved. The movie starring Park Seo Joon and IU directed by the PD of got over 1 million tickets sold last weekend … Continue reading →

K-actor Ryu Jun Yeol just won the Best Actor Award at the 2023 Baeksang Awards in the film side for sageuk thriller The Night Owl so it’s rather fitting that the movie is being discussed as the last “hit” domestic film in Chungmuro for the last 6 months. The Night Owl sold 3.23M tickets and made a profit so is … Continue reading →

Well this is certainly good news for the production company especially since this movie was filmed over three years ago and seemed to languish in post-production leaving one to wonder as to the end product. This past weekend Dream premiered and took the box office top spot in a win for a domestic South Korean movie as there have been … Continue reading →

I’m sure everyone is wondering why the equally famous real life boyfriend wasn’t there but it’s likely to not distract lol. IU and Park Seo Joon attended the VIP movie premiere for this long awaited soccer movie Dream and in attendance were tons of their big name star friends. I’m guessing this group is from the IU side including Kim … Continue reading →

Park Seo Joon and IU Attend the Press Conference for Feel Good Sports Movie Dream

Two actors speaking at a promotional event.

I know Park Seo Joon and IU filmed the movie Dream 3 years ago but seeing them this week at the movie press conference gives off the impression they met for the first time. Okay, maybe second time, but the whole vibe is also like two researchers attending a meeting for their new doctorial paper discussion, the energy is on … Continue reading →

Now I kinda understand why this movie didn’t come out late last year before the 2022 World Cup since it’s a soccer feel good movie and having that additional excitement during the time period would have been good. Upcoming sports movie Dream with Park Seo Joon and IU despite the dream (pun intended) pairing seems rather bland in the first … Continue reading →

I legit remember when this pairing and movie was announced and it seemed so exciting and then like 3 years passed by! The movie Dream was announced in 2020, took two years to film through mid-2022, and has barely any promos. Not sure why the radio silence with two top stars Park Seo Joon and IU in the lead and … Continue reading →
