I didn’t realize there would be two Kim Soo Hyun‘s in the upcoming noir thriller movie Real, and funnily enough neither are likable in the usually puppy dog Kim Soo Hyun character way. That’s great news for him wanting to continue his acting expansion and maturation, but may make the movie a much grittier watch for his fans used to … Continue reading →
Remember last year when actor Kim Soo Hyun decided to try out to become a professional bowler? Now we get to see how skilled he actually is at bowling as he makes a guest appearance on the upcoming episode of variety show Infinity Challenge in a bowling showdown. Kim Soo Hyun doesn’t do a lot of variety shows so this … Continue reading →
The high end couture house that is Louis Vuitton hasn’t stage as many celeb filled events in recent months in Seoul but hit a motherlode of top star sightings with this week’s store exhibition opening. Mega popular actor Gong Yoo was all smiles and sporting a funky 90’s era slouchy suit that actually looks great with him wearing it. Or … Continue reading →
Someone is having the time of his life and it’s none other than top Hallyu star Kim Soo Hyun returning to the lime light this week with the promotional start of his upcoming Korean thriller movie Real. This was his first foray into darker material and an antagonist male lead but at the press conference this week he was such … Continue reading →
I have yet to see Kim Soo Hyun get dark and dirty in any role but this may be the turning point in upcoming summer movie Real. He’s done action in Secretly, Greatly, and even in Thieves or You From Another Star there was physicality involved. But he’s always been the good guy or the underdog we root for, and the … Continue reading →
This wasn’t what I expected but definitely looks cool and a nice new evolution in the Kim Soo Hyun acting repertoire. The first movie teaser is here for summer thriller movie Real, billed as a noir piece but now looks more like an action flick. I’m thinking Oldboy crossed with a gangster movie, with plenty of sleek and sultry scenes … Continue reading →
It’s rare among recent years not to see Kim Soo Hyun attending last week’s Baeksang Arts Award, he’s been a staple there ever since his breakout with The Moon Embraces the Sun and onward with successive years making major hit movies and K-dramas. I can’t even say he’s passing the baton to the juniors since he’s only 29 years old, making … Continue reading →
I’m pre-obsessed with the second single to come from singer-actress IU‘s latest album release. It’s called “Ending Scene” and features guest star Kim Soo Hyun as the leading man, in what is billed as a casting coup but really just a good friend doing a sweet favor for another good friend. IU and Kim Soo Hyun have costarred in two … Continue reading →
It’s nice to have friends to help out and also serve as a nifty promotional platform. Kim Soo Hyun will be reuniting with singer-actress IU for the third time this month as the male lead in her upcoming MV of the second track off her new solo album. They have been good friends for many years and worked onscreen twice … Continue reading →
The movie Ordinary People is certainly a forgettable cinematic title used more than once before, but at least the cast of the upcoming K-movie isn’t ordinary in the least. Starring Jang Hyuk and Son Hyun Joo, it’s a twisty psychological power thriller that mines the dark reaches of human need, which I can totally see the two male leads bringing … Continue reading →
There seems to be noticeable maturing with Kim Soo Hyun that I’ve not seen in the past few years when he seems to be stuck preternaturally in that young man on the cusp of full maturity handsomeness. He seemed too young as the alien professor in You From Another Star and the perfect casting for the newbie producer in Producers, … Continue reading →
This is the most random dating gossip ever whether it’s true or false. K-ent got a dose of hot gossip coming from C-ent this week, with the Chinese media reporting that top Korean star Kim Soo Hyun was planning an April wedding to former Wonder Girls singer turned actress Sohee. The fact that they are not even dating, at least … Continue reading →
I can’t believe the time has come for me to want Kim Soo Hyun show up more in the media. He’s still plenty visible but the past year has seen a noticeable drop in his public appearances, pictorials, and endorsement campaigns. It’s clearly intentional as he’s still one of the most well known and popular Korean actors, but he had … Continue reading →
