Biography

Born in 1963, and is one of the most significant talents of new Korean cinema. He studied philosophy at Sogang University, where he founded a film club and developed a strong interest in film theory and criticism. He became KWAK Jae-yong’s first assistant director, and in 1992, he made his feature film debut "The Moon is the Sun’s Dream". Starting with "Joint Security Area" and going on to "Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance", "Old Boy", "Sympathy for Lady Vengeance", and "I’m a Cyborg, but That’s OK", he brought the Korean viewers to expect ‘well-made films’ and made the audience rave all the more by presenting new styles. Having pride in going back and forth between different genres and in his unique directing sense, PARK has become a world renowned director.

Things are only getting better for Korea's top actor Lee Byeong-Heon, age 39. Nearly two decades after his first debut in 1991, he's become one of the most romantic heroes of Korean soap operas, a ruthless killer in numerous movies and overall, a major heartthrob all across Asia.

The year 2009 was especially rewarding for him both at home and abroad, with his first Hollywood debut "G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra" hitting high at the box office and his spy thriller drama "IRIS" at home earning him a grand prize at the 2009 KBS Acting Awards.

CNN Talk Asia just uploaded video footage of its previous interview with Lee on Wednesday (Jan. 20). The footage goes back to Lee on the red carpet last October at the Pusan International Film Festival...More

Song Kang-ho's New Movie 'Secret Reunion'

| Source | 2010/01/17 | 0 comments | Permalink Share

In an interview at a hotel in Sokong-dong, actor Song Kang-ho said, "First of all, I could easily identify my own personality with the character I played in the movie ‘Secret Reunion' better than in any of my other movies. The character of Han-kyu in Secret Reunion seems to me to be a mix of previous characters I played before, including Doo-man ("Memories of Murder") and Kyung-pil ("JSA - Joint Security Area"). I think that my character Han-kyu is a unique character, but I also used several of my previous characters from my other movies to influence the character 'Han-kyu'. I see my role as Han-kyu to be an assorted gift of my acting experiences for my fans. I tried to show the essence of my acting through Han-kyu and to express him as a father and a husband in his daily life, even though Han-kyu is an agent of the National Intelligence Service (laughing)".

Song, who has gained growing popularity and recognition for his acting credentials, plays Han-kyu, a former agent of the NIS in the movie "Secret Reunion", which is the second movie by director Jang Hoon, whose first project as the main director was "A Movie is a Movie". "Secret Reunion" will be released on February 4....More
