[INTERVIEW] Actress Lee Bo-yeong (Source) 2010/03/05


Korean actress Lee Bo-yeong [photographed by Chae Ki-won/10Asia]


A poster shoot for "Harvest Villa" was taking place at a studio in Nonhyun-dong of Seoul. The actors, each already full of character, displayed facial expressions that summarized the roles they had taken for the drama and drew curiosity by simply standing still in front of the camera. Actor Baek Yoon-shik, who plays the problem-solver in the drama, expressed his concern by saying, "Make me look sturdy". But once he went into shoot, he put on a tough guy-like appearance and looking relaxed, remarked "Should I act like I just killed about 50 people?" But it was actress Lee Bo-yeong, who plays the female lead i... |More

A Frozen Flower Breaks Opening Records (Source) 2009/01/09
Director YOO Ha's sexually charged courtly drama, "A Frozen Flower", took in over 1 million admissions in its first four days, setting an all time record for an adult-rated film. Released on the eve of New Year's Eve, Dec 30, the film's total box office take from Tuesday to Sunday was an impressive US $ 6.9 million.

The tale of a love triangle between a homosexual king, his bodyguard, and the king's wife, is set in Korea's invasion-beset Goryeo Dynasty. It stars actor JO In-seong (previously in YOO's "A Dirty Carnival") as the bodyguard caught between fear and desire. The film, which received much media attention for its daring homosexual scenes, was released on 500 screens by distributor Showbox.

The film knocked December champion, "Scandal Makers" ("Speedy Scandal"), down to second place. The Lotte released comedy ended a struggling year for the Korean film industry on a high note, taking in $26 million in one month, making it the sixth biggest gross of 2008.

KWON Sang-woo and LEE Bo-yeong in melodrama (Source) 2008/12/08
KWON Sang-woo and LEE Bo-yeong will play the leading roles in the melodrama "More Than Blue" (Seulpeumboda Seulpeun Iyagi, English translation: "a story sadder than sadness"). The film will be in the hands of debuting writer/director WON Tae-yeon, a poet.

The story is about a man and a woman who are in love with each other, but even though they know each other for a long time, they can't express their feelings to each other. The film is scheduled for a release next year in March.

Both KWON and LEE have experience working with a poet-turned-writer/director. KWON worked with YOO Ha on "Spirit of Jeet Keun Do: Once upon a Time in Highschool". LEE starred in YOO Ha's "A Dirty Carnival". Another writer who became a leading director is LEE Chang-dong who initially used to be a novelist.

Actor So Returns to Entertainment With 'Rough Cut' (Source) 2008/09/02
Actor So Ji-sub has returned after serving his mandatory military service. He won the hearts of millions of women for his romantic and intense role in the TV drama "I'm Sorry, and I Love You" in 2004.

In the movie "Rough Cut" slated for release Sept. 11, he plays a gangster in a black Armani suit. This movie is the directorial debut of Jang Hoon, who had served as an assistant director under Kim Ki-duk. Jang added his final touches on the screenplay, which was originally written by Kim.

"Rough Cut" interweaves two plots in the film. One is the story evolving through a film shooting scene; the other is a gangster element that blurs the line between reality and fiction similar to that of "A Dirty Carnival" by director Yoo Ha.

Gangpae (So Ji-sub) is offered a part in a movie when action movie star Suta (Kang Ji-hwan) beats up his co-star while shooting the movie. Gangpae, who once wanted to do movies, accepts on the condition that their fighting scenes are real.
