 Press Conference |  Teaser |
One of the viewers of the KBS TV2 drama "He Who Can't Marry" has recently written that she was surprised by its main male character, Cho Jae-hee, who is played by actor Ji Jin-hee. So far, Ji has mostly played gentle and smart men, but this time he has been transformed into a narrow-minded old bachelor, whom he portrays in a comical way. The viewer said she had no idea Ji could portray comical roles and that they suited him perfectly.
Ji is not the only one to reflect the latest small-screen trend. A growing number of male actors are shedding their existing images to try on new roles. Despite the risk, so far the majority of them have succeeded in their transformations. Ji Jin-hee, Lee Jong-won Realize Their Long-cherished Dreams Ji Jin-hee has played only serious roles so far, such as Min Jung-ho in "Dae Jang Geum", Oh Tae-seok in "Spotlight" and his big-screen roles in the movies "Soo" and "The Old Garden". But in the TV drama "He Who Can't Marry", Ji plays a very rigid man ...| More | |||||||||||||||||

| The much-anticipated KBS2 drama series based on the Japanese program with the same title has finally begun on June 15. The first episode of "He Who Can't Marry" featured the encounter between the protagonists Jo Jae-hui (Ji Jin-hee), Jang Mun-jeong (Uhm Jung-hwa), and Jeong Yu-jin (Kim So-eun). Jae-hui lives next door to Yu-jin. Annoyed by the noise Yu-jin makes with her pet, Jae-hui, a cynical, blunt architect, turns up the volume to the maximum whenever listening to music to annoy her back. Having lost patience, Yu-jin goes to his home and finds him fainting from a stomachache. She calls 911 and accompanies him in an ambulance. Jae-hui asks her to take him to the hospital where his brother-in-law, Park Gwang-nam (Im Ho), is working. But with Gwang-nam already going home, Mun-jeong treats him. Hearing Mun-jeong telling a nurse to prepare for an anal exam, Jae-hui attempts to leave the hospital although he can even hardly walk from pain, saying he's fine. Mun-jeong stops him f...| More | |||||||||||||||||

I hoped I'd never have to write this week's column. Because it's the last.
Back on Oct. 23, 2002, this review of Korean TV programmes and culture began life as "What's on Korean TV", and was published every Wednesday. Penning this weekly offering, as a culture writer, then as a political writer and now as a writer for the Korean sister paper of JoongAng Daily has been - and I have to be honest here - both a pain and pleasure. It was a pain only because I had to write the piece in the wee hours of the night, after working on other stories. But I have to confess that it was the irreplaceable pleasure that kept me going against the trivial pain of yawning. I mean, searching for a computer in the forest of Shiga Prefecture, Japan, was not a fun thing. But I soon forgot the hardship when I wrote about yet another stupid but curiously popular TV series. The idea behind the column has been to offer some insight into what the heck is going on locally with this little gizmo known as th...| More | |||||||||||||||||
