Kim Beom's Movie Picks (Source) 2010/02/08


Actor Kim Beom [Chae Ki-won/10Asia]


Kim Beom has grown as an actor everytime we see him. The young boy that first appeared in 2006 TV series "Rude Women" as a child who takes good care of his single mom, made himself known to the public through MBC sitcom "High Kick!" and made his presence more prominent through just a few series of appearances in the beginning of "East of Eden" playing the child part of Hallyu star Song Seung-heon. It became certain last year that he had secured a position on the small screen when he made the hearts of many female viewers flutter through KBS drama "Boys Over Flowers".

Kim then showed how he had finally become a 'man' and one t... |More

Heroines Line Up for Dramas in 2010 (Source) 2010/01/05
By Han Sang-hee
Staff Reporter

Korean dramas may be famous for their catchy storylines and handsome characters, but there is no doubt that heroines also play a big part in terms of popularity and content.

This year's drama lineup boasts various female characters, following last year's femme fatale Mi-shil from "Queen Seon-deok" and secret agent Choi Seung-hee from "Iris".

Lee Da-hae stars in the new drama "The Slave Hunters" as the captive Eon-nyeun who receives a new name, Kim Hye-won, upon rising in social status to the high-rank of "yangban".

She falls for fellow yangban-turned-slave-hunter Dae-gil, played by actor Jang Hyeok, but things take a turn when she befriends Song Tae-ha, played by Oh Ji-ho, the slave Dae-gil is pursuing.

The 25-year-old actress, along with the cast and producers, has a lot of weight on her shoulders, as the new drama follows the trail of the successful "Iris".

" I do hope that we will be able to continue the popularity and interest `Iri... |More

Kim Mi-sook [Chae Ki-won/10Asia]


"You lived in the same neighborhood as me? So was that why you became interested in me? (laugh)" I lived in the same neighborhood as Kim Mi-sook when I was young and thanks to that, my mother would often tell me anecdotes about the 'high schooler Kim Mi-sook' when she pops up on TV. From that point on, Kim became my first 'goddess' and my heart raced during my interview with her, much faster than it had with any other younger actress I had interviewed. And then there is her elegant voice and calm hand gestures. I knew my parents did not like it but I was right to stay up late nights when I was 10 years ... |More

Synopsis

This drama revolves around the fate of two men born in the 60s at the same time, and in the same hospital, of a coal mining town.

Shin Tae-hwan is the managing director of a coal mine in Taebaek. As the true embodiment of ambition, he strives to become the inheritor of the coal mining company called the Taesung Group. In this process, he kills Lee Ki-chul, another miner who has been blocking his path to success. For his own selfish pleasure, he also seduces a nurse at Taebaek Hospital, only to coldly brush her away later.

At that moment, the wife of the deceased miner Lee Ki-chul gives birth to a son at Taebaek Hospital. On that same day, Shin Tae-hwan’s wife also gives birth to a baby boy.

Mi-ae is the nurse who has been betrayed by Shin Tae-hwan. In her rage, she comes up with a scheme to fulfill her own revenge. As if to jab a dagger into Shin Tae-hwan’s heart, she switches the two babies born in the same hospital. By doing so, she viciously transforms the fates of the two lives.


Starring

Dong-chul / Song Seung-heon
He is a young stallion with a character of both storm and fire. He has always cursed and opposed Shin Tae-hwan who killed his father. Because of Shin Tae-hwan, he ends up in a juvenile facility at a young age and experiences the dark shadows of life. Despite this cold bitterness, nobody can shake the love and passion he holds in the depths of his soul.
Later, Dong-chul becomes the right hand man of a casino mogul. He ascends as a member of the Asian mafia, and eventually comes face-to-face with Shin Tae-hwan. He loves his brother Dong-wook more than his own life, and because of this, he remains aloof from the woman he truly loves.

Dong-wook / Yeon Jeong-hoon
Although he is raised as the son of Lee Ki-chul, he is actually the direct bloodline of Shin Tae-hwan.
Despite being the offspring of the rich Shin Tae-hwan, he is thrown into a world of hunger and poverty. Despite these challenges, he grows up to be a man with a beautiful, pure soul unlike his father, and he arises as a symbol of hope. However, due to Shin Tae-hwan’s acts of violence of conspiracy, he loses his first love and falls on the brink of despair. Overcoming all obstacles, he later becomes a prosecutor, but his heart waivers after discovering the truth about his birth and who his real biological father really is.

Hye-rin / Lee Dae-hae
She is the second daughter of President Min who owns the Daehan Daily, and she is the half-sister of Hye-rin.
As a graduate and valedictorian of Seoul National University’s Law School, she has always been considered an extremely bright girl. Although she loves Dong-wook with all her heart, she gives him up to steal the love of her sister.
Dae-hae is a character that has two faces of a saint and a witch. She is next in line to manage the Daehan Daily, and towards the latter half of the drama, she reveals her political aspirations.

Ji-hyun / Han Ji-hye
She is the childhood love of Dong-wook but is now the wife of Shin Myung-hoon. She was cursed and ousted by Yang Choon-hee, but she later returns to Yang’s life as her daughter-in-law.
Being highly competent in hotel management, she is supported by President Oh and Oh Yoon-hwee, and is fully acknowledged as a business executive of the Taesung Group. Her marriage to her husband is in shambles, and she is determined to walk a new path of fate.

Shin Myung-hoon / Park Hae-jin
He has grown up to be a fine young man under the love and guidance of his mother. However, under the negative influence of his father, Shin Tae-hwan, he is gradually transforming into a vicious businessman.
He does all he can to hide the secret behind his birth, but he finds that it is impossible to evade his fate. He is a character that personifies the internal conflict and strife of the human psyche

Kook Young-ran / Lee Yeon-hee
She is the only daughter of President Kook. Although she loves Dong-chul dearly, she experiences four brushes with death to conquer his love.

IMHO, I think Dong Chi is alive and kicking. Why? 1. The family was celebrating his baby's birthday and in a joyous mood 2. His mother saw him. How? She called him by name 3. Rest of the brothers address him as 'hyung' 4. Grace asked 'why you came back late?' Kudos to the director and script writers for keeping us all in suspense. I think they may be planning a sequel to this drama but have yet to finalise the details. Lynn - Singapore
