Staff Reporter While many singers are gasping for air amid the economic recession, which lowered revenue from already plunging album sales, some are temporarily leaving their original posts to pursue different careers. First, came entertainment programs. Singers Lee Hyo-lee, Yoon Jong-shin and Dae-sung from boy band Big Bang appeared on the SBS program "The Family is Out!", garnering fans and leading the show to become one of the most popular on television during that time slot. Pop duo Country Kkokko members Shin Jung-hwan and Tak Hae-hun have been masters of ceremonies for quite a while, with Tak winning the grand prize at the KBS Entertainment Awards in 2007 and even appearing on the big screen several times. Now, they are turning toward acting. While not the first time singers have appeared in dramas and commercials, the list previously only included top artists like Lee Hyo-lee ("Three Leafed Clover", 2005), Yoo Jin ("Loving You", 2002) from the now di...| More | ||||||||||||||

First date after "Lovers" ending party-It would have been good if your father who passed away saw "Yi San" "Yes, he was sick for a while and when he turned 66, before the premiere of "Shadowless Sword", he passed away. He didn't approve of his last son becoming an actor, so it's more regretful. My grandfather passed away before "That Female in Your House" too. If he knew his grandson played King Jeong-jo, he would have been happy". -If your father was reborn, what would you want to do with him? "I have to do what he wanted. Play golf the whole day, and get drinks at night. I miss him a lot". -You got closer to Lee Seung-chul with "Phoenix" right? Do you meet him often? "Of course. I went to a concert with Jeong-eun too. His personality was rough at first but after getting married, he got a lot nicer. So every time I say, "You really met a good wife", he says, "We both met good women. We should always be thankful"". -When there are many good things at once, don't you get n...| More | ||||||||||||||

Is it a time for heroes? SBS and KBS think so. Fast on the heels of SBS' masked marauder, "Iljimae", KBS' "Mighty Chil-woo", a veritable Joseon-style Batman, will swoop into the Monday and Tuesday night time slot on June 17.Originally set to air tonight, the historical-action miniseries called "Choi Kang Chil Woo" ("Mighty Chil-woo") got pushed back a week. News reports indicate that the date was delayed to avoid direct competition with MBC's "Yi San", the final episode of which is set for June 16. But "Yi San" is just one of the many challenges that hero Chil-woo faces. With SBS set to crush Chil-woo before he has a chance to put up a fight, KBS needs to pull out all the stops early on to have a chance of winning. SBS' currently popular "Iljimae" and its upcoming blockbuster "Gourmet" ("Sikgaek") are formidable foes in the race to get high ratings. And Chil-woo may not have what it takes to beat its competitors. But singer-turned-actor Eric Moon, who signed on to play the...| More | ||||||||||||||
The British press is focusing on Director Park Chan-wook, who is awaiting the British premiere of "I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK" on the 4th.Britain's daily magazine The Times stated through an interview with Director Park that the "poet of blood has changed his productions to love stories". "I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK" is about two mental hospital patients, played by "Rain" and Im Soo-jeong. It seems The Times has called Director Park the 'poet of blood' because of his bloody revenge stories, "Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance", "Old Boy", and "Sympathy for Lady Vengeance". In the article, The Times stated, "Director Park's "Old Boy" was at the center of attention after Cho Seung-hui, who committed the Virginia Tech killings, sent a picture of him holding a hammer to a television station". Director Park commented, "When I heard the news, I was very shocked. I was sad when the press compared that picture and the "Old Boy" poster (Choi Min-sik holding a hammer), as if they were rel...| More | ||||||||||||||
