[ChanMi's drama news] Eric Moon, the Great ChilWoo... what's with the fake horses?

2008/06/25 | Source | Permalink |

Rivaling the drama 'Shikgaek', 'The Great ChilWoo' may take a risk in losing viewers with their cheap action scenes.

Viewers complained about the fake horses in the drama 'The Great ChilWoo' used for closup scenes of Eric Moon from ShinHwa taking the lead role as ChilWoo chasing JaJa, Lee Eon previously from 'Coffee Prince'. It seemed as if KBS2's drama, 'The Great Chilwoo' went back 10 years in time for using old fashioned action techniques. Way to lower the drama quality!

The streets of Seoul may be teeming with billboard images of Caucasian models, but in the hearts of Korean fashionistas it is the Korean face that drives their fantasies to become real-life supermodels.
In fashion chronology, the turning point dates back to fall, 2005 when the lanky Korean-American newbie Hye Park took over the coveted spot reserved for Asian models in the international collections, right after Japanese model Ai Tominaga took pregnancy leave. To aspiring models in Korea, Park's success meant one thing: "Models, be ambitious!"
As local fashion magazines rejoiced the arrival of a Korean supermodel, other Korean models began a pilgrimage with one goal, to walk alongside Park. A score of reality TV programs followed.
Unprecedented enthusiasm for fashion models was evident in recent model events here. Five years ago, the Elite Model International Look Korea contest struggled to fill a banquet hall. But, this year at an extravagant dinner event in the Walkerhill Hotel, a...| More

2006/08/21 | Source | Permalink |

"I thought I would die trying to gain all that weight in such a short time. I almost died trying to learn wrestling and I thought I would be dead by the time I learned to understand women's sensibilities. Then I really wanted to die because I had to go on a diet again".
Such was the greeting from the actor Ryoo Deok-hwan, 19, on the day his film "Like A Virgin" was shown to reporters last week.
In the film, Ryoo plays Lee Dong-gu, a fat amateur wrestler who wants to become a woman. At the preview, however, he had obviously lost a lot of weight and looked thin on stage for the press conference.
"It was hard trying to understand how women think and feel", the actor said. "I had many discussions with the director prior to shooting about how to express a woman's sensibility.
"We found out that there is no answer to understanding women, but I did my best to make my character seem natural", he said. "As for the wrestling, I practiced a lot with the help of Lee Eon, who is a wrestler in r...| More
