Just feel all that heat cooking in the first stills alone from the upcoming Korea movie God’s Trick (God’s One Move). Short of Jung Woo Sung doing another movie with his best friend Lee Jung Jae, seeing him going mano-a-mano with Lee Bum Soo is just as good for me. Jung Woo Sung did one movie in 2013 and it … Continue reading →
It’s the 5th year the Korean entertainment industry has run its annual Good Downloader Campaign aimed at curbing piracy and illegal downloads. Good luck with that, but the campaign always gets the most famous and gorgeous stars to participate and dial up the interest. This year the participants are Jung Woo Sung, Ahn Sung Ki, Ryu Seung Ryung, Lee Jung … Continue reading →
Lately the photo shoots I’ve been seeing have all been on the underwhelming side. Great outdoor shoot locations aren’t used for any visible impact, hardly any innovative wow concepts, and generally the two-dimensional aspect of print photos have been like its name suggests and felt flat. A good print photograph feels like a snap shot of a moment in time, … Continue reading →
Nothing screams dead heat of Summer than a nighttime VIP movie premiere in Seoul where all the stars attending were glistening with the combination of BB cream and sweat. Blotting paper for all! It was a parade of actors and actresses at the star-studded movie premiere for Cold Eyes (otherwise known as Surveillance or Stakeout or The Watchers), the thriller … Continue reading →
Janine Chang was the guest reporter for Vogue Taiwan March edition and her assignment was to go to Seoul to interview mega-star Jung Woo Sung. First she works with Zai Zai, then she hits up Jung Woo Sung? Girlfriend just became my #1 most jealous-of actress. Janine wrote up the piece itself and its so lively and thoughtfully written. She … Continue reading →
Woo hoo! Another big-budget cops-and-robbers K-movie is on the horizon, and it stars no less than my I Lub You playing the bad guy for once. I could not be more excited to finally see him unleash his maniacal badassery all over the big screen. Filming has commenced for the movie Stakeout (also called Surveillance or Lookout) starring Jung Woo … Continue reading →
I don’t know if the Taiwanese sense of humor that its stars have with the media and the fans translates elsewhere, because many times the stars will say something totally outrageous and far-fetched because they know it won’t be taken seriously. This week Sonia Sui was in Busan for the film festival along with a contingent of Taiwanese filmmakers and … Continue reading →
It’s fashion time, baby! Despite finding awards shows completely inaccurate in predicting quality, I enjoy it solely for the pretty. It’s a chance for stars to dress up and be unashamed of their extraordinary natural or enhanced prettiness and just be as superficially pretty as possible. Nothing wrong with that whatsoever. This week the 2012 Busan International Film Festival kicked off … Continue reading →
This is about as high wattage as it gets for movie premieres in South Korea. The upcoming Joseon-era sageuk movie Gwanghae: The Man Who Became King (English title Masquerade) starring Lee Byung Hun, Han Hyo Joo, and Ryu Seung Ryong held its star-stubbed movie premiere in Seoul this week which was attended by a veritable who’s who of actors young … Continue reading →
Everyone knows my actors biases so whenever I can cram my faves together for any reason I go for it. I posted last week about the 12 K-actors selected for Vogue Korea’s 16th Anniversary edition, and each of the 12 actors were featured in one still each. Turns out the magazine actually had details spreads on each of the actors … Continue reading →
Woah, Mamma Mia! To celebrate its 16th anniversary in publication, Vogue Korea rounded up a who’s who of Korean male actors ranging from the esteemed veteran (Ahn Sung Ki) to the youngest little wunderkind (that would be Yoo Seung Ho). Of course my I Lub You Jung Woo Sung was there, and of course gets he the post topping picture. … Continue reading →
The star-studded caper movie Thieves held its media movie premiere in Korea this week, and in attendance was a coterie of K-stars even more high wattage than usual. That’s not surprising since the movie cast itself consists of some top-notch star power – Kim Yoon Seok, Lee Jung Jae, Kim Hye Soo, Jeon Ji Hyun, Kim Hae Sook, Kim Soo … Continue reading →
It’s not often we see Jung Woo Sung dwarfed by another actor, since he’s one of the tallest Korean actors around. Turns out he’s tall but not that tall when he was in Milan last week for the Dolce & Gabbana show. Also there was Taiwanese actor and model Godfrey Gao, and the two of them hung out and took … Continue reading →
