Biography

From musicals to movies, actor Jo Seung-woo proves he's got more than just that boyish charm.

Having just wrapped up filming his latest, "Marathon", a tired-but-happy looking Jo got us caught up at the movie's release.

"Marathon",a heartwarming film about a 20-year-old autistic young man with the mental capacity of a 5 year old, challenged Jo to make his performance as authentic as possible. He prepared mentally and physically for the role of Chowon, which entailed endless running scenes. He spent time with autistic men and women to understand their lives.

Jo debuted in 1999 with the movie, "Chunhyang. It wasn't an easy role to land, but he caught the eye of director Lim Kwon-taek. He has since played both tough guys and the more tender type - and of course, we can't forget his work in musicals.

Oh, and his nickname? Colleagues say he is called "old man", a title indicative of his maturity and considerate nature.

[INTERVIEW] Actor Kim Soo-hyeon-I

| Source | 2010/01/12 | 0 comments | Permalink Share Buzz

Interview with the actor who appeared in SBS TV series "Father's House" and played the actor Ko Soo's younger part in SBS TV series "Will It Snow for Christmas??"

Actor Kim Soo-hyeon-I [Lee Jin-hyuk/10Asia]

My name is Kim Soo-hyeon-I. Some people are curious to know why I didn't make a stage name since my name is the same as that of the great scenarist Kim Su-hyun...... What would be good? Kim Soo-gyum? Kim... Carley? Hahahaha.
I was born on February 16, 1988. I major in acting at Joongang University.
I'm an only child but a brusque son at home. I still do call out for my mom though when I get startled.
My first part-time job was at a fastfood restaurant when I was in high school. But I got fired in the first three days because I couldn't get there on time after school. I still got paid for those three days though and how I was happy when I saw the money wired into my account. I heard that you're supposed to buy a pair of socks for your parents when you get paid for the first time so that's what I did... My mom never wore them though. I think I should've bought her socks with lace on it instead.
I once learned how to do mountain climbing. It was back when I was in high school and I used to climb boulders and even took part in competitions. I didn't win because I fell during the second course...... But I've also learned how to scuba dive. I put in an effort to learn sports that aren't usually easy to learn. ...More

Yoon Do-hyeon rocks his feminine side in 'Hedwig'

| 2009/11/19 | 0 comments | Permalink Share Buzz

The local production of "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" - which has been called the most stylish rock musical of the century - is back with a notable cast that includes popular rock musician Yoon Do-hyeon in the title role.

Since its inception in 2005, the Korean production of the famed rock musical has been a bona fide success. In 977 performances from 2005 to 2008, it has drawn audiences of more than 300,000. And hundreds of local "Hed heads" say they have seen the show more than 10 times.

The show has also been good for local actors, many of whom, including Oh Man-seok, Jo Seung-woo and Eom Gi-joon, have found renewed fame and fans after playing the lead.

"I've never seen the musical, although...More

By Chung Ah-young
Staff Reporter

Celebrated rocker Yoon Do-hyeon will return to the stage for the first time in 10 years in the musical "Hedwig and the Angry Inch".

The singer performed in rock musicals such as "Jesus Christ Super Star" and "Hard Rock Café", and the local film "Jungle Story", which depicts the personal and professional travails of an underground rocker.

Making his debut as an underground rock singer in 1995, Yoon has become one of the most famous musicians for his numerous hits, especially his 2002 World Cup songs.

His signature powerful and high-spirited vocals are an important asset to his role as "Hedwig", according to Show Note, the local production company.

In addition, Yoon sang the musical number "Angry Inch" in his television music show " Love Letter " in 2008, further proving his capabilities.

"I want to act frankly so my heart and body move just like Hedwig. He just ta...More

wish his star will always shine bright...he is very versatile. If filming for The Classic was done after H, how amazing that he could switch from being villainous and sinister into a tearjerker right before the moviegoing public's eyes.
